"Oh!" The girl looked at Kelly with admiration. "Kelly, you’re so amazing! No wonder my parents always praise you as the only genius in our family!"
Kelly chuckled lightly.
The girl’s mother also looked at Miranda and said, "Miranda, you should consult with your cousin more often. Even if you can’t get the C-level training qualification next year like she can, any improvement is good."
Kelly’s mother sighed with undertones of bragging, "You haven’t experienced the International Medical Alliance; you can scarcely imagine how brilliant the Medical Scholars there are! Once inside, effort counts for little, and it all depends on talent. Those without the talent simply cannot keep up..."
She had not finished speaking when suddenly three polite knocks sounded at the door.
Miranda hurried over, "It must be Chi Gui!"
That said, she opened the door.
Chi Gui and Fu Si in a black trenchcoat stood at the entrance.
Their demeanor was exceptionally refined, one calm and serene, the other elegantly languid, both strikingly out of place in the surrounding old and dilapidated environment.
The moment the door opened, everyone in the room felt as if the illumination brightened with their presence.
Kelly hadn’t expected Miranda to make friends with two individuals who clearly looked wealthy, and a hint of jealousy flickered beneath her gaze.
"Sister Chi, please come in." Miranda quickly ushered Chi Gui and Fu Si inside.
Chi Gui walked in, greeted Miranda’s parents, and then took out the C-level membership advancement training qualification certificate from her bag.
She handed the certificate to Miranda, relaying Peng Xiao’s words, "Academician Peng said, if you feel capable, go ahead and attend the training organized by the Medical Alliance. If not, just keep the certificate for now."
The room fell utterly silent. This content belongs to novel[f]ire.net
Kelly’s family, who had just been saying how hard it was to obtain a C-level advancement training qualification, blushed and paled alternately.
The other relatives were dumbfounded, speechless.
Only Miranda’s parents had smiles of joy on their faces.
Miranda’s mother warmly said, "Thank you, thank you so much! Oh, Miranda could have gone to pick it up herself, there’s no need for you to deliver it personally!"
Miranda’s father also quickly added, "Stay for a meal!"
Chi Gui smiled and shook her head, "Some other time, I have things to do today."
As Kelly fixated on the certificate in Miranda’s hand, as Chi Gui prepared to leave, she suddenly stood up and shouted, "That certificate is fake! Cousin Miranda, don’t be fooled!"
Miranda looked back at Kelly incredulously.
Did she know whom she was accusing?
But Kelly’s parents and the other relatives, as if invigorated by her statement, suddenly looked more animated.
"Why would you say that?" Kelly’s mother inquired.
Kelly held her head high with conviction in her voice, "Because the International Medical Alliance has a rule that each student can only attend one training class per year. Miranda just graduated from the D-level class; how could she qualify for a C-level training?"
Hearing this, the looks of the others toward Miranda and Chi Gui shifted.
"Cousin Miranda, what does your friend do?" Kelly pursued, honing in on what she perceived as the critical point, "Even if the Alliance really issued a certificate, it should be delivered by an official, how could they just send anyone?"
