The moment Liu Qian came back, Dai Jie and the others nervously looked at him in unison.
Liu Qian did not seem happy, but he was not in a completely bad mood. He had come back with his hands empty.
Liu Qian raised his head and glanced at the students while they stared at him intently. He naturally knew why they were looking at him, so he pursed his lips and said, "I have submitted my funding request. Mr. Qi said he will submit it to Prof Liu in the afternoon."
Everyone felt slightly relieved to hear this. For what it was worth, Mr. Qi did not reject their funding request outright.
"Does this mean we will know the answer in the afternoon?" Light glinted in Dai Jie's eyes and his voice sounded hopeful.
