He acknowledged with a nod and a smile.

He was already a professor at such a young age.

Lindsey’s eyes couldn’t help but sparkle with excitement.

She inquired earnestly, “Have we met before?”

The man gave Lindsey another look and smiled.

“You’re quite a sensation online.

It’s normal for people to recognize you.

Lindsey nodded, feeling a bit awkward.

“Oh…”

Had she become so famous that people recognized her in public?

This thought crossed Lindsey’s mind, and then she heard the man ask, “What brings you here?”

She looked up at the young professor in front of her.

Since he was called a professor, he must know something about the specific medicine.

“Professor Lopez, I’ve heard about a new obesity treatment your team developed.

Are you familiar with it?”

The man seemed confused.

“Do you need it?”

“Yes, if it’s not too much trouble, could I.

.

Lindsey carefully chose her words.

She was meeting this man for the first time and wasn’t sure if he could assist her.

“Certainly,” the man replied without hesitation.

Lindsey paused mid-sentence, eyes as wide as saucers.

She looked up at the man in bewilderment and blurted, “Really? How much is it? I can transfer the money to your account!”

Lindsey was ecstatic to hear that this professor, whom she had just met, was willing to help her.

On second thought, perhaps he just wanted to make some extra money-after all, these kinds of “private sales” of drugs probably happened a lot in research centers like this one.

But to Lindsey’s surprise, the man simply chuckled.

“No need.

It’s not a problem at all.

Just wait here.

I’ll be back in a jiffy.

After giving her a reassuring smile, he turned around and strode down the corridor, disappearing behind the corner.

Lindsey watched him walk off in a daze, feeling a little flustered.

Why would this man help her? It was the first time they had met.

Lindsey wasn’t a fool, and she knew that there was no such thing as a free meal in this day and age.

Feeling uneasy, she approached the receptionist to ask about this professor.

“Professor Lopez? Well, our research institute invited him from Mubluosia to be one of our project’s technical guides.

It’s said that even the director has to be courteous with him.

I believe the medicine you asked about just now was developed by him and his team.

The receptionist gushed about Professor Lopez excitedly, with unmasked admiration in her eyes.

It could be seen how popular this man was at the research institute.

When Lindsey was done speaking with the receptionist, she took a seat and waited anxiously.

It felt like an eternity had passed by the time The man finally returned, only this time, he had changed into a dark grey suit, which made him look like a noble elite.
