Seeing her , Chi Gui was puzzled, "If you need friends so badly, why do you stick with me?"
Offending Tang Xiao clearly led to isolation. By standing with her at this moment, wasn’t Miranda just asking to be isolated?
Miranda poked at her rice with her spoon and whispered, "I can’t help it, I just can’t stand Tang Xiao’s arrogant attitude. You don’t know, back when she was at the International Medical Alliance, even when going to the cafeteria for lunch, D-level members had to save the best seats for her, or else they would be ’punished.’"
It had practically turned the D-level membership into a small kingdom, with Tang Xiao self-appointed as the queen.
Chi Gui’s expression turned serious, "Does the higher-up know about this?"
She had thought Tang Xiao’s group was just arrogant, but not providing them with the best resources meant facing "punishment"—that was over the line.
Miranda laughed at herself bitterly, "Oh, the higher-ups are so busy, how could they possibly notice the likes of us at the bottom? Besides, the International Medical Alliance is a gathering place for the strong. Who would care whether the weak are treated fairly or if they can adapt?"
In a sense, the International Medical Alliance was even more brutal, its competition and system even more inhumane than other places.
But, likewise, as long as you were strong enough, you could get everything you wanted at the International Medical Alliance.
Whether it was respect or privilege.
Miranda also recognized this system, which is why, despite her distaste for Tang Xiao’s behavior, she had never gone out of her way to offend them.
Her proactive help for Chi Gui was because she was well aware that Li Kai would definitely side with Tang Xiao, and if things continued to escalate, Chi Gui would be at a great disadvantage.
But she didn’t tell Chi Gui this.
After all, with Chi Gui suffering from autism, she was already pitiable enough; there was no need to add to her stress.
And even though she had helped Chi Gui, she had also provided a better room for Tang Xiao’s friend and shown weakness—surely Tang Xiao wouldn’t target them now, right?
It was not until that afternoon, when distributing resources to the trainees, that Miranda realized how naive she had been!
As the top performer, Tang Xiao naturally received the most comprehensive and abundant resources.
But Miranda, a student with average results, received a third less of the important resources than the others!
And as for Chi Gui, it was even more pitiful.
As the last in rank, she already had few resources; what was allocated to her were only the least important A-level Medical Scholar explanatory examples!
Each person received their resources in the form of USB drives or documents, accompanied by a list detailing what was included.
Chi Gui received hers without a glance and carelessly placed it in her desk pocket.
Miranda was sitting by Chi Gui’s side, saw this, and stood up in a burst of indignant anger, confronting the A-level Medical Scholar teacher, "Teacher, why do Chi Gui and I have much fewer resources than the others?"
"What do you mean less?" The A-level Medical Scholar, clearly instructed by superiors was impatient, "Everyone got seventeen resources, so did you. Are you saying you should get twenty to not be considered less?"
Miranda was choked up, her heart filled with frustration.
Though the total was seventeen for everyone, others got thirteen important resources and four less important ones. She only had six important resources, and all the rest were insignificant!
Chi Gui didn’t even have one single important resource!
How could this be the same?
"Miranda, stop making a fuss!" One of Tang Xiao’s fellow students snickered, "The teacher has been very fair. Don’t make things difficult for the teacher, yeah!"
