Miranda glared at her coldly, not in the mood to speak, and sat aside.
Soon, Li Kai, Lil, and Tang Xiao arrived, and each took a seat.
After a while, Fei Qi and others accompanied Peng Xiao as they walked in.
Peng Xiao, wearing the uniform of the International Medical Alliance, had a pair of eagle eyes that exuded authority without anger. As he entered, the atmosphere in the training room seemed to drop a few degrees.
Even Liu Feifei, who typically loved to rant, involuntarily quieted her breathing.
Following behind Peng Xiao, Fei Qi glanced around the training room and asked, "What happened just now?"
Tang Xiao hurriedly raised his hand and stood up, "Respected leaders and teachers, just now during the assessment, Lier Medical Scholar discovered that trainee Chi Gui, while turning, accidentally dripped sweat into the mannequin’s wound; thus, he took necessary action according to the rules. However, Chi Gui refused to accept this, not only confronting the teacher on the spot but even slandering the teacher in front of everyone, accusing him of trying to provoke her into confrontation and framing her!"
Miranda suddenly stood up, "That’s not true! The assessment that the teacher gave to Chi Gui was difficult from the start, a complete hour of surgery process, with various questions asked in between to distract Chi Gui! Chi Gui persisted with perfect operations for more than fifty minutes... Later, when the teacher judged Chi Gui’s performance as unsatisfactory, she merely wanted to defend herself; she never thought of confronting the teacher!"
"Did she or did she not tell another teacher, ’As long as you’re not blind, you can see that Lier Medical Scholar is deliberately provoking me’?"
Hearing this, Peng Xiao covered his lips and gently coughed.
Miranda choked, "She did say that, but under those circumstances..."
"When Lier Medical Scholar merely stated ’unsatisfactory’, she directly accused him of intentionally provoking the student to make mistakes, isn’t that slandering the teacher?"
Tang Xiao’s words left Miranda speechless.
At that moment, Peng Xiao turned to look at Lier, "Do you have anything to say?"
Lier stood up, his face stern, and shook his head, "Academician Peng, everything Tang Xiao said is true. I believe that our International Medical Alliance absolutely cannot accept such a disgraceful person who violates rules and slanders the teacher; otherwise, our alliance’s reputation might be tarnished by her!"
After a pause, he spoke righteously, "I suggest that we expel trainee Chi Gui immediately!" ʀᴇᴀᴅ ʟᴀᴛᴇsᴛ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs ᴀᴛ n͟o͟v͟e͟l͟f͟i͟r͟e͟.net
Hearing this, Miranda became anxious and stood up wanting to say something.
Peng Xiao gestured for her to sit down.
With a sinking heart, Miranda sat down.
Peng Xiao then turned to Li Kai, "What about you? Do you have anything to say?"
Li Kai also spoke righteously, "I agree with Lier Medical Scholar! This student has repeatedly caused conflicts and created issues with other students during her term, it is only right that she be expelled!"
Miranda, gathering her courage, stood up, "That’s because others targeted her! Chi Gui was merely defending herself; how can that be held against her!"
Li Kai, "It takes two to make a noise. If there were no issues with her, why would others only target her and not others?"
Miranda, her face flushing with anger: "You..."
Peng Xiao raised his hand again to stop her, "Trainee, there’s no need to rush, just sit and watch."
He personally spoke, and Miranda had no choice but to sit down.
Peng Xiao then turned to the other trainees and assessment instructors, "Does anyone else have something to say?"
The other trainees looked at each other, and no one stood up.
The four other instructors who were also assessing the situation remained silent at first, but eventually, the one who had been speaking up for Chi Gui stood up and said, "Trainee Chi Gui is talented, and with proper guidance, she could make significant contributions to the medical field in the future..."
As he spoke, he glanced at Peng Xiao’s expression before carefully continuing, "Regarding the issue mentioned by Lier the assessor... I believe she is merely young and impulsive, not inherently bad. A light punishment would suffice, not expulsion..."
Hearing this, Peng Xiao’s expression softened slightly, clearly relieved that someone finally recognized the potential in his own daughter.
However, his expression was naturally stern, and since no one present had ever really interacted with him, no one could discern his feelings.
