The next day, the parcel with the medical books that Qiao Nian had bought arrived at Rhine Apartment.
For the next week, Qiao Nian was basically holed up in her room. Even Gu San didn’t know what she was doing in her room or if she was studying seriously.
On the other hand, the Chinese Medical Faculty had called a few times.
One moment it was Shen Yugui, the next it was Mr. Huang. They couldn’t contact Qiao Nian at all. After using a few connections, they asked for Ye Wangchuan’s number and called him to ask if they needed to hurry up and give Qiao Nian some crash course regarding knowledge that would be needed for the medical competition…
However, Ye Wangchuan rejected all the calls that asked about tutoring Qiao Nian.
He even brushed off Ye Lan when she called asking about this matter.
Seeing that he and Qiao Nian were both calm, Gu San did not dare to say anything and could only wait anxiously at the side.
…
The news that Qiao Nian was going to participate in an important medical competition even before her first year of school was held caused a huge commotion. It was not just Fu Ge, Qiao Chen, and Jiang Xianrou who heard about this matter.
Even Zhang Yang had many people asking him about it.
In the past, even if a country bumpkin from Rao City came to Qing University, they wouldn’t be able to do anything in a place like Beijing where talents were abundant.
But this year was different.
This year, the top scorer of the college entrance examination was not only the biological granddaughter that Old Master Jiang had spent more than 10 years searching for, but she was also very highly revered.
Many people turned up at her school promotion banquet.
In fact, a lot of them who came later were not qualified to go.
Qiao Nian’s school promotion banquet had caused such a huge commotion. It was difficult for so many eyes in Beijing not to notice her. Now that there was news that a student like her, who had not even settled the admission procedures for her first year of university, was going to participate in the competition on behalf of the Chinese Medicine Faculty… Many people in Beijing felt that the news was quite surreal.
They were not too concerned about what kind of academic competition this was. They only wanted to know what the new daughter of the Jiang family was up to.
Zhang Yang had always had a wide network of connections. He was also sly and had a good relationship with everyone, except for the time when he insulted Jiang Xianrou in the group.
The moment Qiao Nian’s matter became known, many people in their small circle asked him about the truth of the matter. He didn’t delay and called Qin Si directly.
There was indeed such a thing.
Zhang Yang’s brain worked quickly. At that time, he had asked Qin Si if he had tickets to the medical competition and if the team of relatives could participate.
…
On the 28th of June, Beijing was bright and sunny.
Qiao Nian was woken up by Nie Mi’s call at 8:30 AM.
She hung up the phone, got out of bed, put on a sleeping robe, and went to the bathroom to take a cold shower. Then, she came out and changed into a long-sleeved black T-shirt. She picked up the cap on the table and put it on her head. She covered her eyes, only revealing a beautiful chin.
She had very little to bring with her. In her shoulder bag were a pen, a bottle of gum, and a book relevant to the medical competition.
Qiao Nian threw everything into her bag, zipped it up, and left with it on her shoulder.
Downstairs.
Gu San had prepared breakfast. Seeing Qiao Nian coming down, he quickly greeted her. “Miss Qiao, you’re up. Come and have breakfast.”
Qiao Nian had an earpiece in one of her ears. Her cell phone was still playing the contents of the medical books that Mr. Huang had sent her. She could still talk to Gu San casually even while multitasking. “Uh, I’m not eating. I want to go over earlier. I still have some things to read.”
