Reborn as a Mortal Heiress Pampered by Big Shots-Chapter 377: Their Ancestral Master is his little ancestor_2

The man lowered his long lashes for a glance at his watch, his expression icy.

Throughout the following class, Jiang Xuan clearly wasn’t as engaging as when Xia Ye was present, his interest seeming to wane.

Nevertheless, he still followed the lesson plan and completed the content for the class, and when the bell rang, he dismissed the class right on time, not a second later.

Lu Beibei and the others were still busy taking notes from the PPT on the big screen.

Lu Beibei, "It feels like Professor Jiang is a bit tired today, different from how he usually teaches. Has he been too busy with work lately?"

Qi Ran, "I noticed that too."

Yang Qiange, "Of course, I saw an interview on M country’s financial news before. I heard that these big shots can only sleep three to four hours a day..."

Yang Qiange was still speaking when, from the corner of Lu Beibei’s desk, a cold white peel fell, a hand that was exceptionally beautiful and on the larger side.

Jiang Xuan reached out and tapped on Lu Beibei’s desk, "Why didn’t Xia Ye come to class?"

When did Professor Jiang come over?

Yang Qiange’s heart tightened. Up close, the man’s allure was on an entirely different level compared to viewing him from across the lecture podium!

With eyes that gleamed with the lustre of wealth, Lu Beibei said, "Ah, my idol, she..."

But before she could finish speaking, Yang Qiange preempted her, "That’s the thing, Professor Jiang, Yeye is partaking in this year’s Prospective Student assessment at the Life Sciences Institute and has to go to Professor Bian’s lab for training every Thursday."

The dean had specifically approved the training instead of attending the class, so Yang Qiange had no choice but to tell the truth, unable to play any tricks.

Jiang Xuan sighed silently. Had he known, he would have had Shen Jing substitute for the class.

Lu Beibei glared at Yang Qiange, but Yang Qiange just pretended not to see it, her attention all on Jiang Xuan.

Jiang Xuan, however, did not look at them, nor did he care who answered his question. Out of his own breeding, he said indifferently, "I see, thank you."

Yang Qiange’s face flushed, she squeezed the notebook in her hand, hoping to use the opportunity to speak more with Professor Jiang.

Having made up her mind, she took a deep breath, mustered her courage, and suddenly stood up from her chair, "Jiang..."

Jiang Xuan, striding with long steps, had already reached the classroom door and left the classroom within her field of view.

Yang Qiange stood dumbfounded for a few seconds, then awkwardly sat down.

"Hm?" Once she had calmed down, Lu Beibei suddenly realized something, "Wait a minute, did Professor Jiang take attendance today?"

Qi Ran also looked her way, "It seems like he actually didn’t."

Lu Beibei, "He knew our idol wasn’t here without taking attendance? We have students from several departments here, over a hundred people..."

Yang Qiange’s tone was dismissive, "That’s the memory of a CEO who can make it onto the Forbes list. If I hadn’t clarified things for Yeye, she would’ve been marked absent for this class."

Lu Beibei and Qi Ran exchanged glances but neither responded.

Jiang Yunzhou watched coldly from the side:...

What does this have to do with memory?

If it had been him, his precious nephew missing class, would his formidable CEO Uncle notice?

In Professor Bian’s lab, Xia Ye was seated at the experimental table, conducting preliminary experiments under Professor Bian’s guidance.

During the last session when Professor Bian took the new students through observation experiments, they had to stop because of the damaged leaves, so he hadn’t seen Xia Ye’s experimental capabilities.

But he could guess somewhat.

Experiments aren’t something you can master overnight. Although there was less than a month left before the actual assessment, he planned on taking it slow and steady, starting with the basics to give Xia Ye a solid foundation.

He taught her to recognize and learn how to use various precision instruments, and to standardize her movements.

And Xia Ye was very receptive to learning, without any pretensions.

What she needed to learn from Professor Bian was precisely these fundamentals.

Once she mastered them, the rest would...

In just one class period, Professor Bian had introduced her to all the equipment she would encounter during the assessment. Xia Ye was smart and quick to learn.

Professor Bian then moved on to the next step, "Now, let’s standardize the way you handle the injection device. Keep it at a 45-degree angle to the slide, then inject liquid A into the center of the tissue fluid, making sure it doesn’t spill."

Although it was a simple part of the procedure, it was a major difficulty for all students in relevant experiments, involving this exact step. Absolute steadiness was required; the injection process had to last for five minutes, during which the hand had to remain perfectly still to prevent any spillage.

Professor Bian knew this was tough, "Try it once for me. Don’t be nervous, it’s normal not to get it right the first time..."

"Oh," Xia Ye, of course, wasn’t nervous and began the experiment methodically.
