Chi Gui: ...
She rubbed her forehead with a hint of a headache, "Can I opt for promotion to Academician?"
To bee an Academician, she just needed to take a day off to attend the ceremony.
But the assessment... that would take half a month...
And she would have to go abroad...
Wu Zhiyuan: "No way! That Shi Liyun will also be taking the assessment this year. Even if you’re promoted to Academician, once she gets into the Medical Alliance, people will still say that the disciple that old man taught is stronger than mine!"
Chi Gui: "...Master, this is the first time I’ve realized that your petitive spirit is so strong..."
Wu Zhiyuan spoke somberly: "You don’t understand. I’ve peted with that old geezer my whole life, and he’s never beaten me! Now, when you’re so outstanding, why should I endure the pain of being overshadowed by him?"
Chi Gui also felt it wasn’t good to hold her master back, so she asked very sincerely, "Then, about the expenses for going abroad..."
"I’ll reimburse you!" Wu Zhiyuan said generously.
Chi Gui: "Then there’s no problem. Master, wait for me to do you proud."
After hanging up the phone, Chi Gui counted the days to the Medical Alliance’s entry assessment—October 10th, only twenty days away from now.
And right after the Medical Alliance’s assessment, there would be the International Jewelry Association’s assessment... It seemed she wouldn’t be able to return from abroad before the New Year.
Chi Gui zoned out on the sofa for the entire afternoon, and eventually decided to clean up the house thoroughly before leaving.
In case something happened abroad and she couldn’t e back, this would count as a New Year’s cleanup.

The news that the Fu Family had produced a designer who was personally praised by the President of the International Jewelry Association spread quickly throughout Capital City.
Those other families who had been eyeing the Jin Family, ready to cut ties with the Fu Family to curry favor, suddenly retracted their decisions, continuing to watch and wait.
But such trifles were of no concern to the Fu Family.
The next day, Fu Si came to look for Chi Gui. As soon as Little Guai opened the door, he was shocked by the room full of books and notebooks.
"What are you doing?" He picked his way in, looking at Chi Gui who was holding a sack and asked curiously.
Chi Gui packed the books and notebooks into the sack, responding nonchalantly, "These are my notes and books from high school until now. I never had the time to sort them before. I flipped through them last night, and many of the points recorded are still useful for medical students today, so I’m going to take them all to the medical school gate to give away."
Fu Si struggled to understand her words, "You mean... set up a stall at the medical school gate?"
It’s not unmon for upperclassmen to sell their used items, a practice not strange in current times.
But... Professor Chi??
In Capital City’s medical school, which was none other than Huaxia University.
If she carried a sack to the school gate to set up a stall, wouldn’t it shock the president out of his wits?
Chi Gui nodded, unconcerned, "These things are of no use to me anymore, and it would be a shame to throw them away. Better to give them to someone who can use them."
She looked up and saw the astonishment on Fu Si’s face, "You don’t have to e with me."
She could hardly imagine Mr. Fu sitting on a little stool at a stall, shouting out his wares...
However, no sooner had she spoken those words, Fu Si laughed lightly and bent down to help her pack the scattered books and notebooks into the sack, "Such an interesting life experience, you must take me along."
Now it was Chi Gui’s turn to be surprised, "Are you sure you can handle being seen as a peddler?"
"If you can accept it, why can’t I?" Fu Si looked up at her, smiling lightly.
So, before long, Fu Si shouldered a sack full of books and notebooks, setting up a small stall with Chi Gui at the gates of Huaxia University.
