Chapter 379
He hadn''t been to Second High with Shi Jin, so he hadn''t seen the principals of Imperial Capital
University and Qing University looking for Shi Jin.
Inparison, Yao Jiahong was much calmer. He called out, "Principal Ling."
Ling Yida said to Shi Jin, "Wee, wee. I originally was going to arrange for a car to pick you
up, but Mr. Yao said that it would be too troublesome, so I came here specially to wait for you."
With Shi Jin''s grades, she was way overqualified for the University of Traditional Chinese Medicine.
The principals of Qing University and the Imperial Capital University are still unhappy even now.
Ling Yida didn''t expect such a day toe either. When he spoke, it had more pride to it now.
"Sorry to trouble you, Principal Ling," Shi Jin said politely.
"It''s not troublesome, it''s only right. I should havee to see you earlier, but I haven''t had the
time."
It was mainly because Shi Jin had no time.
Xiao Li was following behind them. When he heard the greetings, he was stunned.
Ling Yida told Shi Jin about the arrangement. "I heard from Mr. Yao that you won''t being to
ss for a long time in the future. However, since you''ve chosen this major, I still hope that you can
grasp the basic knowledge of this major. You can''t just skip sspletely."
Shi Jin nodded. "I understand."
Ling Vida felt that it was a pity that Shi Jin chose to major in traditional Chinese medicine.
The University of Traditional Chinese Medicine had all sorts of majors likebining Chinese and
Western medicine. There were very few people who studied pure traditional Chinese medicine and
it was also very difficult for them to master it.
In this field, more time was needed to umte experience.
However, what needed to be said and what needed to bemunicated had already been said.
Someone like Shi Jin, who rejected both the Imperial Capital University and Qing University, was
naturally not easily swayed. Hence, Ling Yida didn''t say much. He only briefly introduced the school
to her.
Along the way, many people recognized Shi Jin. However, she had the principal beside her and the
other school administrative staff behind her. No one dared toe forward to greet her.
Ling Yida brought Shi Jin to the office of the Director of the Ancient Chinese Medicine department.
Although it was difficult to be proficient in Traditional Chinese Medicine and there weren''t many
people in the major, once one mastered it, Western medicine could not bepared to it.
Director Zhang Fengnian was rather proud of his profession.
His student, Hu Hao, was talking to him, and Vice Director Ouyang Ping was sitting beside him.
"I heard that Shi Jin ising to report. Why isn''t she here yet?" Hu Hao nced at the door.
Zhang Fengnian frowned.
Hu Hao said, "They''re downstairs. I think Principal Ling went to pick them up personally."
Zhang Fengnian''s expression was calm. It wasn''t that he hadn''t seen students with good grades,
but there were very few students with talent in Chinese medicine.
He heard that Shi Jin had already agreed to prioritize her career and would note to school
often. So Zhang Fengnian was not interested in her. If she didn''te to school, why would she be
a student?
A momentter, Ling Yida brought Shi Jin upstairs.
After they entered, Ling Yida introduced them to each other. Yao Jiahong handed over the things he
brought.
Hu Hao took them and handed them to Zhang Fengnian to sign and stamp.
Ling Yida smiled and said, "I''ll leave Shi Jin to you guys. I don''t want to leave her to the other
teachers."
Zhang Fengnian said, "Don''t first-year freshmen learn from their teachers first, and only when
they''re in their third year will they let us mentor them?"
"Shi Jin is different," Ling Yida said.
Zhang Fengnian, however, did not feel that she was any different. In fact, he felt that she was far
inferior to his favorite students.
Qin Fanya, the student he was most proud of, was extremely talented in the field of medicinal herbs
research. She had already gone to an ancient Chinese medicine hospital overseas and had a
chance to meet the genius researcher Du Xian.
Shi Jin? Even if she dide to school often, would she be able to see Du Xian even in ten years?
Seeing Zhang Fengnian''s attitude, Hu Hao didn''t greet Shi Jin.
Ling Yida saw his unwillingness and knew that Zhang Fengnian didn''tck good students. However,
Ouyang Ping was very open-minded and said, "Shi Jin, why don''t you learn from me?"
"Thank you, Teacher Ouyang," said Shi Jin.
Zhang Fengnian said, "Since both of you have this intention, it''s not appropriate for me to snatch
the person from you. It''s decided then."
Seeing that they had reached an agreement internally, Ling Yida didn''t probe any further. He had
indeed taken a liking to Shi Jin when she came to school. However, it seemed that her reputation
was more meaningful than he thought.
Ouyang Ping gave Shi Jin a set of books and documents. Shi Jin only left after both parties had
agreed on negotiations.
When she walked out with Ling Yida, she heard someone talking about a familiar name, Du Xian.
"Senior Qin has the opportunity to meet Du Xian! I''m so jealous."
"I wonder if I''ll have the chance if I keep studying."
"For students like us, it''s already good enough that we have the chance to visit the International
Ancient Chinese Medicine Hospital, let alone see Du Xian."
Only then did Shi Jin realize how popr Du Xian was.
Seeing that she was very interested, Ling Yida introduced, "Shi Jin, although ancient Chinese
medicine originated from our country and was brought to greater heights in our country, this national
essence has been misinterpreted by too many people. As a result, there are fewer and fewer
people who can learn this subject well. Instead, many people overseas are better at research than
us."
Shi Jin had experienced Country H taking credit for the ancient dance, so she was not surprised.
Some things were not valued by one''s own people, so of course outsiders would study and use
them.
"Luckily, there''s still Du Xian. He has always been outstanding and is respected in the International
Ancient Chinese Medicine Hospital. He won''t let the essence of our country be taken over by
foreigners. In our school, students who learn well will have the chance to go there and receive Du
Xian''s guidance."
Shi Jin nodded in understanding.
Ling Yida knew that she would have limited time to study in the future, so he didn''t say much and
apanied her to the school gate.
When they reached the door, Yao Jiahong suddenly remembered and said, "Shi Jin, a foreigner
named Andrew called just now. He said he was here to deliver something and is waiting at the
school gate. Is he someone you know?"
Shi Jin had been talking to Principal Ling just now, finishing the registration and so on. She had not
checked her phone.
She took out her phone and looked at it. She realized that Du Xian had sent her countless
messages. He said that the frostbloom had arrived. It was delivered by someone called Andrew.
She hadn''t replied, so Andrew called Yao Jiahong.
"Yes. Help me retrieve it," said Shi Jin.
Yao Jiahong walked towards the school gate. Ling Yida felt that Andrew''s name was familiar. Wasn''t
he one of Du Xian''s assistants?Original from N?velDrama.Org.
He couldn''t help looking in Yao Jiahong''s direction and saw a blonde-haired, blue-eyed man
handing something to Yao Jiahong.
