Can’t Take My Eyes Off You

Jiang Yao, on the other hand, was a brilliant student. Chancellor Wen forbade her from graduating from Province A’s university. How could he send her to another university?

Jiang Yao nodded. She also understood what Wen Xuehui meant when she told her that.

Everyone stayed up till midnight talking before going to bed. Fortunately, the next day’s sessions did not start until 9:30 a.m. Everyone said they would sleep until 9:00 a.m before getting up.

However, in reality, Jiang Yao’s ringtone woke everyone up at 8:00 a.m.

Fortunately, Jiang Yao answered the phone quickly. Then, everyone else fell back asleep.

Jiang Yao went to the balcony to answer the phone.

“Something terrible has happened, Director Jiang. Our research laboratory has been robbed!”

The call came from Xiao Yuan. His voice sounded tight and agitated. “We arrived at the research lab early in the morning to find it in a state of disarray. It appeared that the office had been burgled.”

“First, call the cops. I will head there right away.” Jiang Yao instructed Little Buck to contact the police first. Keep an eye on the scene. “Do not touch the site to avoid interfering with the police’s job.”

Jiang Yao hurriedly washed up and changed. Then she asked Big Ke and Ah Lu to meet her at the school gate. They headed straight to the research lab.

The cops were already there when Jiang Yao arrived. They were speaking to Lin Teicheng and the others. They requested the rest to give up their seats when they saw Jiang Yao.

“How is the situation?”

Jiang Yao gazed at the stuff on the ground and shuddered at the thought. She made every effort to find a spot to stand.

“Some of the Petri dishes have been destroyed. All of the files in the office cabinets are empty. There’s nothing left. The files and books on the shelves have also been opened and examined. My wallet, which I left on the table the night before, is still there. They didn’t even open it. They must have been here to look for information.”

Lin Teicheng shrugged as he looked around the office. “It is a devastating loss.”

“The most repulsive aspect is that they stole the records. They had no choice but to destroy the Petri dishes because they could not steal them. They destroyed a couple of machines as well. That kind of thievery is heinous. It is our many hours of hard effort,” Xiao An yelled; her eyes were red.

“There are currently no other research institutes in Nanjiang City. The people who would take your research lab’s data must be from the other research teams. It should be easy to investigate if we pursue this lead.” After the cop finished taking notes, he consoled everyone.

After all, it was not just a case of stolen documents. They might gain more even if they did not take any money. The stealing of the documents and destruction of their experiments were even more heinous than if the robbers had taken their lives.

Lin Teicheng spoke with the cops for a while before dispatching them. He reappeared after a while.

Jiang Yao saw that everyone’s expressions had gotten considerably calmer once Lin Teicheng returned.

“That might be a blessing in disguise,” Lin Teicheng explained.

“We did not leave any vital documents in the lab. Instead, we left them at the bosses’ house. However, our experiments were indeed ruined. Hong Ke and I discussed it.. Only our old employer would want to keep an eye on our experiment, and only our old employer knows what we are researching.”
