"Yeah, you better keep your distance from her! If Tang Xiao and the others think you’re friends with Miranda, you’ll be in trouble too." New ɴᴏᴠᴇʟ ᴄhapters are published on novel⸺fire.net
Hearing this, the girls surrounding Miranda immediately backed away a good distance.
Miranda couldn’t be bothered with them and began packing Chi Guihe’s USB drive and other materials into her bag before limping out of the room.
Behind her, she could still hear the mocking voices of others.
"She’s really dumb! Having a good relationship with Tang Xiao would be more beneficial for her future, yet she insists on befriending a bottom-feeder!"
"I finally managed to get Tang Xiao to exchange an S-class Medical Scholar’s teaching video with me!"
"Really? I’m so jealous! What did you exchange for it?"
"All my resources..."
"That’s still worth it... After all, that’s practical teaching from an S-class Medical Scholar! All our resources combined aren’t as valuable as one of those videos!"
During her break, Chi Gui took a trip back to the research institute to handle some minor issues at work.
Then, she messaged Peng Xiao: "Have you ever recorded any practical teaching videos or the like?"
Peng Xiao had just finished attending a symposium and was on his way out when he saw her message. He immediately replied: "Yes! Lots of them! Do you want to see?"
Chi Gui: "Yeah. If possible... could you also send over some of the family’s materials and stuff?"
Seeing this message, Peng Xiao understood.
This girl wasn’t interested in watching videos; she was after resources!
However, to a D-level member like him, these might be priceless resources, but to big shots like Peng Xiao, they were easily accessible.
Peng Xiao knew what resources were distributed in the training classes, and he ordered his assistant to compile them. Then he said to Chi Gui: "I’ve instructed my assistant to sort it out, and he’ll send it directly to your email. This isn’t for your own viewing, is it?"
With Chi Gui’s capabilities, even he found her astonishing. Wasn’t it a breeze for her to get a position at any family?
She had no need to watch those.
Chi Gui didn’t hide it, especially since it involved Peng Xiao’s own videos: "A friend of mine wants to watch it; she’s also a D-level member of the Medical Alliance."
Knowing that it was someone from the Medical Alliance made Peng Xiao even more generous: "Then I’ll compile a few A-class and S-class practical teaching videos and send them to you in a bundle. My videos are quite advanced; let your friend start with the lower-level ones to get a grasp of them to prevent confusion later on."
Chi Gui: "Great, thanks."
Peng Xiao immediately seized the opportunity: "I’ve got a new project here, and since you want to thank me, how about..."
Chi Gui: "I take back my thanks, no need to speak of such great kindness."
Peng Xiao couldn’t help but laugh out loud.
His assistant was somewhat speechless.
Couldn’t this old man be a bit more conscious of his seniority?
Look at how scared he’s made the child... even her typing speed seemed to have increased...
After obtaining the resources from Peng Xiao, Fu Si’s car was waiting at the door, taking Chi Gui for a meal near the training class.
Neither of them was big on the rule of silence during meals; they chatted while eating, mainly about the training class.
As they talked, Chi Gui suddenly realized something.
Why she found Miranda annoying yet not dislikeable.
Because Miranda’s self-assured nature was exactly like the man in front of her!
Both had forcefully entered her life and then clung on without leaving.
And, annoyingly, they had genuinely good intentions toward her.
Chi Gui had always been one to yield to soft approaches rather than forceful ones. Against such people, she truly had no recourse.
If there was any difference between Miranda and Fu Si... it was probably that Miranda’s nature was simple, not as sly as Fu Si.
Seeing Chi Gui suddenly put down her chopsticks and stare straight at him, Fu Si couldn’t help but quirk an eyebrow and ask with a light chuckle, "Professor Chi, staring at me like that could lead me to misunderstand that you like me."
