The first classmate started to say, “Ginseng, deer antler, angelica root, gelatin…”
She only managed to say ten types of Chinese medicine after one minute.
After that, everyone became more and more nervous as they spoke. They accidentally repeated the same medicine as the students in front.
Most of the examinees could only say about ten before they racked their brains and couldn’t continue anymore.
When it was Han Bingyue’s turn, she stood up confidently and opened her mouth. “Chinese yam, hawthorn, dates, tea, papaya, fungus, pigeon pea, costus…”
What a joke. She had memorized the Chinese medicine catalogs before.
Wasn’t listing 50 types of Chinese medicine herbs easily done?
When she finished speaking in one breath, the entire venue fell silent for a second and couldn’t help but applaud.
Awesome!
A top student was a top student!
Why didn’t they know that hawthorn, papaya, and fungus were Chinese medicine?
Oh my, Han Bingyue could be considered to have shown her face in front of the great CEO Chu this time. The CEO must have seen her in a different light, right?
But Chu Junmo only commented indifferently in a cold voice without a trace of emotion. “You’ve repeated two. Chinese yam and costus. Two points deducted.”
Although it was a little regretful that she scored 98 marks, it was already a crushing score compared to the other examinees’ scores of more than ten or thirty-four points, okay?
Everyone felt that there was no need to take the last question anymore.
Han Bingyue had already said the most common Chinese medicine namse that everyone were familiar with but had never said before.
The people behind could only collect the duck eggs pitifully.
Indeed, more than ten subsequent students scored zero.
They opened their mouths but couldn’t say anything. They admitted defeat obediently.
Finally, it was the last examinee’s turn, Gu Qiqi.
Everyone looked at her with slight ridicule and thought to themselves that the question from the principal just now could still be taken advantage of because of a loophole. Now, this question of the great CEO Chu tested real talent. If she didn’t know any, then she didn’t know any. No matter how much sweet-talking and emotional tricks she had, they were useless!
Especially when compared to Han Bingyue, this top student, what else could this country bumpkin say?
Everyone looked at her as if she was a joke.
Gu Qiqi got up slowly.
She looked a little embarrassed.
Everyone sniggered even more secretly… They were just short of mocking Gu Qiqi to get off the stage.
“One minute, the countdown begins!” The teacher in charge of the timer announced.
Gu Qiqi didn’t start to race against time to announce the name of the Chinese medicine like the other students. Instead, she used her fair and slender fingers to tap her chin. She looked like she was in a difficult position. “Oh, should I say something simple and easy to understand, or… Forget it. Let’s do something special!”
Everyone was speechless. Why is she continuing to pretend? She can’t even say a word, right?
Gu Qiqi paused for a few seconds. Slowly, she seemed to have finally made up her mind.
Only then did she speak slowly. “Qing Dai, Jing Mo, Poison Hemlock, Cucurbitacins, Crystalline Mirabilite, Orange day-lily, Morning glory, Black Nightshade, Chinese buckthorn…”
She spoke at a moderate speed.
Those elegant and pleasant names drifted out with her clear and sweet voice like pearls falling onto a jade plate. Although her voice wasn’t especially high, it was inexplicably shocking!
It was too beautiful.
It was too good.
How could there be such beautiful Chinese medicine names in this world? They were beautiful beyond words!
None of them knew!
Only half a minute had passed since Gu Qiqi finished speaking the 50 Chinese medicine names. But she didn’t stop. She continued speaking smoothly!
50…
60…
100…!!!
The looks of disdain and ridicule from the examinees froze on their faces in embarrassment.
Gu Qiqi was so awesome!
Gu Qiqi was so terrifying!
