  Whenever students were issued demerit points, everyone in the department would find out. Even if it did not get recorded in their permanent files, it would be a real tarnish on their careers.

  Moreover, this accusation was completely false.

  How could Qi Hui punish Huo Yao just to get back at Liu Qian?

  Liu Qian looked livid. He suddenly remembered the way Qi Hui had forced students and teachers to leave the university a couple of years ago.

  It did not matter if his archives were genuinely leaked.

  Liu Qian was so angry that he trembled.

  Just as he was about to open his mouth and speak, Huo Yao glanced at Liu Qian before she looked at Qi Hui with a calm look on her face. “I didn’t take them. Why should I admit to it?”


  Qi Hui scoffed. “Have you already discussed this and agreed not to admit to stealing the archives?”


  Huo Yao smiled. “Why don’t you just come clean about leaking the research archives and your attempt to find a scapegoat?”


  Judging from their conversation, it was clear that something was wrong.

  How did Liu Qian offend Qi Hui?

  Qi Hui instantly frowned when Huo Yao spoke blatantly in a rude tone. “It is the truth. You have taken the files and I have seen it with my own eyes.”


  Thanks to Huo Yao’s excellent memory, she remembered Qi Hui showing up when Liu Qian gave her the research archives.

  Huo Yao nodded and said, “Mr. Qi, are you saying we took confidential files from the department and leaked them right under your eye? You certainly think highly of us.”


  Liu Qian was very mad at this accusation, but the moment he heard what Huo Yao said, his anger dissipated. He raised his head and looked at Huo Yao.

  Sure enough, she was a troublemaker.

  The moment Qi Hui caught the sarcasm in her tone, he instantly looked furious. “You are such a smart mouth. It is the department’s misfortune to have a student like you.”


  Huo Yao simply smiled. She glanced at the journal in Qi Hui’s hands. “Mr. Qi, do you have any other hard evidence that my teacher and I have stolen your research archives and leaked them?”


  Qi Hui looked at Huo Yao coldly.

  Qi Hui had just seen an article published in a journal 30 minutes ago. Its contents were shockingly similar to the work he had done previously, so he pulled the surveillance footage of the corridor to confirm tyat Liu Qian and Huo Yao were the only people who had accessed the archived room recently.

  He had seen Liu Qian and Huo Yao taking some research archives looking like thieves, so the moment he got angry, he summoned them over for interrogation.

  He genuinely did not have the evidence Huo Yao was asking for.

  Huo Yao raised her brow when she noticed Qi Hui’s silence and said softly, “From the looks of it, you don’t have any evidence.”


  She paused before she looked at Liu Qian “Mr. Qi… I don’t suppose you still need me around here.”


  After Liu Qian caught on to the severity of the accusation, he pondered for a couple of seconds. He told them to hang on before he walked out of the office.

  Since his office was very near to Qi Hui, he came back with a manila envelope in less than two minutes.

  “Mr. Qi, these are the files you saw me taking the other day. I took them so that my student could have a look at them. Since I have yet to put them back in that archive room, you are welcome to take a look, ” said Liu Qian as he handed the manila envelope to Qi Hui.

  Qi Hui refused to take the files and simply looked at Liu Qian for a while. Just as Qi Hui was about to speak, someone walked in from outside. Qi Hui instantly stopped talking and looked at the man……
