Chapter 454: Impoverished Researcher (Part Two)

But at the door, Lin Dong dragged Xu Cheng aside and said, “Teacher, this guy clearly wants you to invest in his research, and he’s probably taking you to his lab to try to convince you. These kinds of scholars are not just good in experiments, but they really know how to work their words.”

“No worries, just find a hotel first. I will call you in a bit,” Xu Cheng said to Lin Dong.

Xu Cheng didn’t want to dispel his enthusiasm so he said, “Don’t worry, I’m quite poor too.”

Koman smiled. “You think I’m trying to get you to invest in my research?”

I’m very happy that at least you showed up to my lecture.”
