"Sister..."
Qi Miaomiao looked unhappily at her sister, who was indecisive and lacked courage in matters of the heart, and said angrily, "Forget it, I won't say anything. You're the one who will end up crying anyway."
Watching this scene between the sisters, Wan Yunting smiled with an unnatural expression. He wasn't a fool; how could he not tell that Gu Luotang had feelings for him?
"Why are you looking at me like that?"
Wan Yunting immediately turned to look at Dai Qiuyue and found that the girl's deep eyes had been fixed on him. Dai Qiuyue said faintly, "You are very outstanding!"
"...What nonsense is this."
Wan Yunting was speechless. "What exactly do you want to say?"
Dai Qiuyue turned her head back and said calmly, "Nothing."
Wan Yunting was completely defeated by them. He finally shook his head with a wry smile and said, "The hearts of you women are truly deeper than the sea..." wap.kanshu伍.net
Just then, Wei Renxin, Song Sinan, and Zhang Xiaoyu walked over. Upon seeing Wan Yunting, they exclaimed in surprise, "Teacher Wan, you're here too..."
"Hello, Teacher Wei, Teacher Song, Teacher Zhang..."
Wan Yunting stood up and waved to greet them. Their seats were right next to him, so they also took their seats. Song Sinan remained quiet and reserved, simply nodding as a greeting.
Zhang Xiaoyu was more lively and said with a smile, "Teacher Wan, we all saw your heroic deeds on the news. We really admire you."
"Yes."
Wei Renxin, with a simple and honest expression, chuckled and said, "We all thought you were a doctor and a teacher like us, but you've suddenly become an anti-drug hero."
"Sweat..."
Wan Yunting humbly waved his hands and then asked Gu Luotang and the others, "By the way, is the school teaching going smoothly?"
However, Song Sinan said calmly, "The school has already ordered us to stop classes!"
"Oh?"
Wan Yunting was stunned. Gu Luotang turned to him and said, "It was Sima Hongyun from the capital who pressured the Ministry of Education, so all schools have stopped our traditional Chinese medicine courses!"
Wei Renxin sighed and said, "The vice-chairman of the association from the capital, he's targeting Principal Gu."
"Yes, it's so annoying,"
Zhang Xiaoyu pouted and said angrily, "We were teaching well, and the children all liked our traditional Chinese medicine classes, but he just said to stop them, claiming it violated the rules of TCM inheritance."
"Hmph, it's just touching their interests!"
Song Sinan's eyes were sharp, and her words, though few, were always to the point.
Gu Luotang, Qi Miaomiao, and the others nodded, knowing that Vice Chairman Sima Hongyun was making a strong move. Especially at this TCM education reform discussion conference, everyone knew that it was Sima Hongyun's critique of Gu Yuanbai!
"You say, he wouldn't really abolish our Principal Gu's position as chairman of the association, would he?" Zhang Xiaoyu asked everyone.
This made Gu Luotang's brows furrow. That was her greatest concern.
"How dare he!"
Qi Miaomiao's eyes widened, and she said indignantly, "If he dares to remove my master's position as chairman, I'll never let him get away with it."
"It's not that he dares not, it's a fact!" Song Sinan stated with certainty.
Wei Renxin and Zhang Xiaoyu sighed. Wan Yunting had confirmed this when he spoke with Jiang Yichun and the others yesterday, so he had already started preparing!
"You guys talk, I'm going to the restroom."
Wan Yunting stood up and said before going out. Dai Qiuyue glanced at him and also got up to follow, which made Qi Miaomiao mutter speechlessly, "He's following even to the restroom..."
Gu Luotang sighed helplessly in her heart. Song Sinan, Wei Renxin, and Zhang Xiaoyu didn't know what was going on...
"Why are you following me?"
Wan Yunting turned his head and saw Dai Qiuyue following him, saying with a bit of annoyance, "This way, people will misunderstand."
But Dai Qiuyue shook her head, completely unconcerned about gossip, "I don't care."
"But I do," Wan Yunting said with a wry smile.
Dai Qiuyue lowered her head in silence. Wan Yunting knew what she was thinking. He waved his hand and said, "You go to the restroom, I'll go make a phone call..."
Saying that, he walked towards the small balcony outside the restroom corridor. Dai Qiuyue was startled, realizing he wasn't going to the restroom...
"Tiger, how are the preparations?"
Wan Yunting naturally called Meng Hu. He said with a smile from a bar, "Don't worry, Boss Wan. I've got everything ready. The news will be out soon."
"Make it quick."
Wan Yunting glanced at the time; the meeting was about to begin.
"Okay, I'll urge them again." Meng Hu said.
"Alright, that's all for now."
Wan Yunting said nothing more, hung up the call, and put away his phone. Just then, he saw a Rolls-Royce slowly pull over on the roadside. Sima Hongyun, wearing a Tang suit, with his belly sticking out and his pig-like face, was entering the building surrounded by Weng Dehai and his group...
Heh heh... Wan Yunting smiled at the corner of his mouth and turned back to the corridor, where he found Dai Qiuyue waiting for him. "Let's go back."
Dai Qiuyue nodded, asked nothing, and silently followed him back.
Just as Sima Hongyun and Weng Dehai and their group entered, a commotion of discussions broke out among the people present. Some people got up to greet Sima Hongyun with flattery, while others remained seated, casting cold glances...
"He looks like a pig's head, it's disgusting..."
Watching Sima Hongyun being escorted by a group of people towards the presidential platform, Qi Miaomiao muttered with disgust. Wei Renxin and Zhang Xiaoyu found it amusing and chimed in, "He looks like someone who loves to eat pig's head meat."
"Hahaha..."
Even Wan Yunting couldn't help but laugh heartily. Gu Luotang also smiled charmingly, her beauty captivating. She subtly stole a glance at the man beside her. Unexpectedly, Wan Yunting also looked back. Their eyes met, and in that instant, Gu Luotang's pretty face turned red. She quickly lowered her head, her heart pounding wildly like a deer in flight, feeling incredibly shy.
Seeing her shy demeanor, Wan Yunting found it amusing. This girl was truly too innocent and lovely...
"Everyone, please quiet down."
Weng Dehai, holding the microphone, stood on the presidential platform and looked at everyone present. "Is everyone here..."
By this time, the venue was full, and the invited guests numbered over a hundred, consisting only of doctors from the surrounding provinces.
"Alright, let the conference begin."
Seeing that everyone had arrived, Weng Dehai immediately pointed to Sima Hongyun, who was sitting in the center of the presidential platform, and called out, "Let us welcome Vice Chairman Sima to speak..."
Applause erupted. However, Wan Yunting and his group, sitting in the second row, did not clap. Many others in the audience also remained silent, clearly showing their disapproval of Sima Hongyun.
Nevertheless, a large portion of the audience applauded enthusiastically. Sima Hongyun, sitting motionlessly like a fat pig, lightly tapped the microphone twice before smiling and saying, "The topic of this meeting, as everyone must be aware of, is..."
Gu Yuanbai, sitting to his left, along with Jiang Yichun, Deng Hongsheng, and Sun Yutang, wore somber expressions...
"I have convened this meeting to point out and severely criticize Chairman Gu's approach to the issue of TCM education reform!" Sima Hongyun said, holding the microphone in one hand and pointing at Gu Yuanbai beside him with the other.
As expected...
As soon as these words were uttered, the entire audience began to murmur and discuss amongst themselves.
Gu Luotang, Qi Miaomiao, Song Sinan, Wei Renxin, and Zhang Xiaoyu looked grave. Only Wan Yunting stood with his arms crossed, looking at Sima Hongyun, who sat like a pig on the stage. A light smile played on his lips.
Dai Qiuyue, sitting beside him, noticed this and wondered what he was smiling about.
Wan Yunting, sensing her gaze, turned and smiled, "Just wait and see the show!"
