Chapter 1279

Lily glanced and saw it was a call from Thompson. ‘What a coincidence!’

"Professor Thompson." She answered the phone.

His voice came from the other end. "Lily, are you busy with anything now?"

"No. Is there anything I can do for you?" She lifted her eyelids and looked at Olivia, who was eating her
apple.

"Well, I have to ask you for a favor." Letting out a sigh, he said, "Look.

We've conducted the experiment for so long, and everyone approved it initially, not to mention you've
invested so much energy in it. Don't you think you're being a bit too irresponsible by backing out now?"

"Professor, I think it's way more irresponsible to carry on with the experiment without knowing its
purpose." Lowering her gaze, Lily said casually, "I think I've made myself clear. If you're trying to
dissuade me from backing out, forget it."

‘Besides, I doubt you have the funding for the experiment as well"

"I..." After a pause, Thompson added, "Never mind. Are you free to have a meal with me?"

Lily was surprised since it was the first time Thompson had invited her for a meal.

Sensing her hesitation, Thompson hurriedly said, "We've known each other for so long, and I've never
treated you to anything before. Also, since you've backed out so hastily, we haven’t talked through the
handover on many aspects. Why don’t we talk about it face-to-face for the last time?"



Thompson had always carried himself with the air of a leader in the laboratory. Even though he was
courteous to her, he had never spoken so humbly.

Finding it hard to turn down his invitation, Lily kept quiet.

"Didn't you always want to know how the finished product would be used and for what purpose? I'll tell
you all about it over the meal."

If Lily was hesitant before this, she was tempted by his offer now. Even though she had decided to
back out, she was still quite curious about the experiment's true purpose.

‘If it's meant to cure illnesses, why does it include the wilfordi root? Which is so poisonous and has
medicinal qualities that are hard to control.

Besides, I secretly browsed through the classified progress schedule and learned that other poisonous
herbs are involved. What the hell are they up to?’

"I hope you're not thinking that an old man like me could do anything bad to you?"

"I'm not." Lily said casually, "When and where do you want to meet?"

Thompson perked up and hurriedly said, as if worrying that she would change her mind, "Why not
today? I’m free now that the experiment has halted. How about we meet later at the seafood restaurant
near the lab?"

"Okay." Lily glanced at her watch and agreed.

As she disconnected the call, Olivia tossed the apple core into the trashcan and took some tissue
paper to wipe her mouth.

"You're going out?"



Lily nodded. "Professor Thompson would like to have a meal with me."

Letting out a knowing smile, Olivia said, "He must be planning to ask you to stay with the project.
Although there are many perfumers now, there aren't many as outstanding as you. Besides, you're the
one who has garnered the most prizes internationally over the past two years. Who else would they get
besides you?"

However, Lily thought there were other reasons. She was still unsure what they were, as the research
institute kept quite a few secrets.

"Do you want me to go with you?" Olivia leaned over and asked.

Lily shook her head and replied, "We'll be talking about the experiment.
