Hearing Zhao Yuexiu's words, Chi Mingkun's gaze inevitably darkened. Zhao Yuexiu's remarks about Chi Gui made him feel very uncomfortable.
However, thinking that she had always been , he couldn't be bothered to intervene further, didn't respond, and turned to leave.
Zhao Yuexiu huffed coldly, quite displeased, "Chi Mingkun is really becoming unreasonable, always preoccupied with Chi Gui, treating her as the most important, Chi Gui, Chi Gui, Chi Gui—can Chi Gui even compare to you?"
She glanced at Chi Yan, and her mood improved significantly, her expression softened, "Let's hurry to the venue."
Chi Yan nodded, glanced at the entrance, and his expression grew slightly darker.
Fifteen minutes later.
Chi Mingkun met Chi Gui at the airport, and upon seeing her, he approached her with a smile, "Sis, you're finally back."
Chi Gui nodded slightly, "I'm short on time, take me to the Kyoto Medical Exhibition Center." Fresh chapters posted on novel⁂fire.net
The Kyoto Medical Exhibition Center?
Chi Mingkun paused, then recalled, wasn't today's ceremony for the newly appointed Academician being held there?
Chi Gui was also going there?
Seeing that Chi Mingkun looked uneasy, Chi Gui asked, "What's the matter? Is there a problem?"
"No," Chi Mingkun shook his head, "Chi Yan and the others are also heading there. There's a ceremony for a newly appointed Academician today. Chi Yan managed to get admission, she's over the moon with excitement. I don't understand, what's so great about an Academician."
Chi Gui nodded, said no more, and got into the car.
They arrived at the Medical Exhibition Center.
The ceremony was important, and the venue was already sealed off. A large crowd had gathered outside, and only those with invitations or who were registered could enter.
As Chi Gui and Chi Mingkun approached the entrance, they were immediately stopped by a security officer tasked with maintaining order,
"Do you two have an invitation or are you registered?"
Chi Gui was a bit confused; she didn't know, nobody had mentioned it when she was coming over...
Actually, the dean had forgotten to remind her when he called, after all, becoming an Academician isn't something that happens all the time.
Chi Gui shook her head, "No, but I must enter to participate in the ceremony."
The security officer's demeanor grew stern, "Without an invitation or registration, no one can enter."
My promotion ceremony, and you won't let me in?
At that moment, Chi Mingkun suddenly waved his hand and shouted towards the venue.
Chi Yan and Zhao Yuexiu had already entered.
The two were chatting and laughing when they heard Chi Mingkun's voice, and they both stopped to look over.
Chi Yan's face immediately darkened, and he said in a low voice, "It's Chi Mingkun and Chi Gui."
Zhao Yuexiu frowned, "They seem to be stopped by security outside. What is Chi Mingkun thinking, still bringing Chi Gui here?"
Saying this, she quickly led Chi Yan to the entrance.
Chi Mingkun hurriedly said, "Chi Yan, tell them we are all qualified to enter."
Chi Yan shook his head and laughed disdainfully, looking at Chi Gui, feeling very annoyed.
Back at home, Chi Mingkun had left to pick up Chi Gui without even a word of congratulations to her.
Now that they can't enter the venue, he thought of her?
How shameless can you be?
Zhao Yuexiu also glanced profoundly at Chi Gui and said sarcastically, "Mingkun, don't you value Chi Gui more than anyone? We got into the venue because of Chi Yan's slot. If you think Chi Gui is so capable, let her take you inside."
