He suddenly looked forward to the official competition starting soon, eager to see what the reaction of his former teammates, who mocked him as foolish, would be!
Chi Gui arrived at the research institute, handled the issues, and took out her phone, only to see a message from Lu You.
After telling her about the successful signing, Lu You added, "Sister Chi, thank you for taking so much trouble for us!"
Chi Gui: "It wasn’t much trouble, just casually asked. I’m glad you’re satisfied."
Lu You and Kyle, seeing her message, instantly felt deep respect in their hearts.
This was indeed the demeanor of a bigwig!
She had silently helped them so much and, to prevent them from feeling pressured, deliberately described it as just casually asking!
Chi Gui didn’t realize the misunderstanding her honest words had caused. After sending the message, she put away her phone and walked out of the research institute’s office.
Today, Peng Xiao had recruited an A-level member of the International Medical Alliance, and as the person in charge, it was natural for her to acquaint him with the workflow.
Chi Gui went down right on time.
She had just descended when the A-level member also arrived.
Upon reaching the entrance, he was met with the gaze of everyone in the institute.
Especially the female researchers, including Shi Liyun, all had their eyes light up.
Not for any other reason, but because the new member was very young!
He looked to be about twenty-three years old, dressed in a light-colored trench coat, tall and slender, with straight legs and gently curled black hair; his peach-blossom eyes were gentle and clear.
He just stood there quietly, his gentle and reserved demeanor extremely captivating.
The International Medical Alliance was not without young members, but most hovered only at the D level; most A-level members were elderly, over fifty years of age.
A young, handsome medical scholar like him, who reached A-level at such a young age with such a gentle demeanor, was almost unheard of.
"Coach Chi, this is Wen Ruan, from country H in Asia." Chi Gui’s assistant stood by her side, introducing with a hint of envy, "He is a real life winner! Born into a family with a thousand-year medical legacy, not only is he skilled in medicine but even Academician Peng holds him in high esteem; his family background is also exceptionally strong... Without any accidents, he will be the one to replace Academician Peng as one of the five core members of the International Medical Alliance."
Each of the five core figures of the International Medical Alliance held enough influence to alter the entire medical field.
At just twenty-three, Wen Ruan possessed the strength to succeed Peng Xiao, and his powerful family background was also unsurprising that he attracted so much attention upon arrival.
Chi Gui nodded, indicating she understood.
Compared to the excitement of others, she was exceptionally calm.
Her assistant, seeing her , couldn’t help but be stunned: "Professor Chi, aren’t you excited?"
Chi Gui: "How does his being so great affect me in the slightest?"
Assistant: "...It seems it doesn’t..."
Chi Gui: "Then what is there for me to be excited about?"
She vaguely felt something was off but couldn’t think of any rebuttal!
After Chi Gui spoke, she didn’t bother with the stunned assistant any longer and went downstairs towards Wen Ruan.
Wen Ruan also saw Chi Gui and walked over proactively.
He was a head taller than Chi Gui. When he looked down at her, his eyes naturally carried warmth: "You must be Professor Chi, right? Hello, I am Wen Ruan. Academician Peng asked me to come to you for guidance; please be generous with your teachings." Tʜe sourcᴇ of thɪs content ɪs NoveI(F)ire.net
Chi Gui: "I dare not offer any teachings; I am just in charge of this project. Let me first show you the current progress and work at the research institute."
With a matter-of-fact tone, she finished speaking and turned towards the workspace.
Wen Ruan seemed not to have expected Chi Gui to have such an attitude and paused for half a second behind her.
Then, a glint flashed in his eyes, and with an imperceptible curve of his lips, he followed Chi Gui’s steps.
