Chapter 437: Laboratory Chemical Poisoning

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Aisha had lost so terribly the first time she met with Zi Yi.

After they had walked some distance away and arrived somewhere empty, Aisha suddenly stopped walking and covered her face.

Aisha always felt that if she maintained a friendly appearance in front of Zi Yi, the latter would let her guard down and she would be able to approach her.

She never expected that Zi Yi would know of her existence.

Moreover, she had given her such a heavy blow during their first meeting.

Chu Xiang looked at Aisha who had been badly affected. Her hands placed inside her pockets tapped on her phone.

She then walked over to Aisha and said, “Aisha, I’m sorry. I didn’t know Zi Yi would be so… vicious.”

Aisha did not respond. She felt unhappy deep down and tears continuously poured out.

Chu Xiang remained silent at the sight of her current appearance and merely stood there as she looked at her.

A few minutes later, Chu Xuan quickly walked over from another side.

“Aisha.”

The moment she heard someone else’s voice, Aisha hastily wiped her tears and felt a little embarrassed.

Chu Xuan passed her a tissue and purposely said, “The wind around here is pretty strong these days. Did sand get into your eyes? Here, you can use it to wipe your eyes.”

Aisha did not expect Chu Xuan to say that. She took the tissue from his hand and said, “Thank you.”

“You’re welcome.”

Chu Xuan waited for her to dry her tears before he said, “You just arrived at M.Uni and you’re still unfamiliar with the place. Let me show you around.”

Aisha was not in the mood to tour around.

Chu Xuan looked at her and said, “I’ll take you to look around the auditorium for the theatrical performance in M.Uni. Every month, there are theatrical performances and it just so happens to be the School of Liberal Art’s turn this month.”

The moment Aisha heard that, she thought of her own plans. Even without Zi Yi’s vicious words, she still had to win against her in dancing.

Thinking of this, she nodded her head.

Thus, the two of them headed towards the auditorium.

Chu Xiang deliberately walked at a slower pace and finally, when none of them had noticed her lack of presence, she turned around and left.

Just as she turned around, she saw a female student standing there looking at her.

She recognized the female student. She was Zi Yi’s younger sister, Zi Xuan.

She thought of the relationship between these siblings and she revealed a smirk. “Zi Xuan.”

Zi Xuan looked at Chu Xiang’s scheming gaze and tightened her lips, before she turned around and left.

The smirk on her lips deepened at the sight of her reaction.

…

Zi Yi’s afternoon class was originally in the Archaeology Department. However, Dou Xiaoyong had directly visited the class during lesson time and said, “Hello Teacher Chen. I wish to borrow Zi Yi from your class.”

Teacher Chen did not expect a professor from the School of Mechanical Engineering to personally visit and borrow a student from him. He subconsciously looked towards Zi Yi.

Zi Yi knew that Dou Xiaoyong had something to say to her, so she carried her bag and stood up.

When she was making her way out, she said to Teacher Chen, “I’ve already reviewed the lesson for today.”

Teacher Chen opened his mouth but he could only say, “Then you can go ahead and follow Professor Dou.”

After they had left the teaching building, Professor Dou said to Zi Yi, “Mr. Qin gave me a call earlier on and he has agreed to your request. However, you don’t have to take time out to contact the engineers at night. You can just make a trip there during the weekends.”

Zi Yi responded with an okay.

Dou Xiaoyong also said, “You can tell me if you have any other requests, I’ll convey them to Mr. Qin. He’s in charge of the machinery in the capital and it’s good for you to perform well in front of him. It’ll be useful for you, be it now or in the future.”

Zi Yi tilted her head and looked at Dou Xiaoyong, as she did not understand the meaning behind his words.

Dou Xiaoyong noticed her confusion and said, “Aren’t you intending to run for the Student Union’s officer position? The officers of M.Uni’s Student Union must have stellar results.”

Zi Yi’s lips curled up at his words and she asked, “Second Uncle, are you worried that I won’t be able to get elected?”

“I’m not worried.” Dou Xiaoyong said in a serious tone, “You’re very capable, it’s just that you’re lacking a few certificates.”

Zi Yi thought about whether to tell him the real position she wanted to compete for. After thinking for a moment, she decided to tell him.

Unexpectedly, Dou Xiaoyong smiled and nodded. “It’s good to have ambitions.”

However, he did not forget to give her some setbacks. “The requirement for the Student Union’s President is even higher. They must have more than three international award certificates and other capabilities… During the election, students aren’t the only ones voting. The teaching staff would also be voting and the higher management would also give you a comprehensive evaluation after inspection.”

Zi Yi remained silent at his words.

Dou Xiaoyong would obviously hope for his niece to become more outstanding. When he saw that she remained silent, he gave her some advice. “There are a few international competitions coming up soon and if you think you have the ability, you can sign up for them.”

He then told her about the upcoming international competitions. “There’s an International Collegiate Programming Contest for the Information Technology Department, a World Robot Design Competition for the Robotics Department, and also the Olympiad Competition for the Mathematics Department, and as for the Physics Department…”

In total, Dou Xiaoyong mentioned seven to eight international competitions.

Zi Yi planned to check the timing of these international competitions afterwards.

If the competition was going to happen in the near future, she could participate in them.

While talking, they had made their way towards the School of Mechanical Engineering. However, along the way, they suddenly heard a sudden exclamation. “Look! Something happened in the Chemistry Department!”

“What’s going on?”

“It seems to be chemical poisoning and the poisonous gas has already spread throughout the entire floor.”

“Oh my gosh, how scary!”

“Quick, let’s go and take a look.”

The crowd then hastily made their way towards the Chemistry Department.

Zi Yi and Dou Xiaoyong looked at each other and the latter asked, “Do you want to go over and take a look?”

Zi Yi nodded her head and they followed the crowd as they headed over.

Unexpectedly, they had been blocked as soon as they arrived outside the building.

“No one is allowed to approach. It’s dangerous here.”

There was quite a crowd in the vicinity. The school security had surrounded the whole building and numerous leaders, along with teachers, were standing outside the building. All of them were in an anxious and worried mood.

Everyone looked up at the laboratory in front of them and someone pointed at one of the floors. “I heard that the accident happened on the fourth floor. Moreover, the poison gas is very strong. Perhaps they…”

Even though the person had not completed the sentence, the others had also guessed what they wanted to say.

Dou Xiaoyong asked one of the male students standing beside them. “Student, how many people are there on the fourth floor?”

The male student turned over to look at Zi Yi and Dou Xiaoyong and was surprised to see them here. He hastily said, “I heard that there are at least forty to fifty people.”

Dou Xiaoyong furrowed his brows.

Zi Yi took out her phone and quickly connected to all the surveillance cameras on the fourth floor. After she checked out the situation, she said to Dou Xiaoyong, “Professor Dou, go and check when the doctors will be arriving.”

Dou Xiaoyong glanced at her and said to the people around them, “Student, please make way.”

The moment he said that, the students around them had quickly made way for them to pass.

Zi Yi and Dou Xiaoyong made their way over, but the security guard had stopped them.

Dou Xiaoyong ended up calling one of the people standing near the building. “Director Yang.”

Director Yang walked over in large strides.

Dou Xiaoyong asked, “Have you called the medical team? When will the doctors be arriving?”
