Gou Dachun finished swearing his oath in a huff, then cast an envious glance at the English webpage on his computer.
BMP-16...
If he could also publish a paper with international influence, he would be able to strut around and throw his weight around in front of that dead woman Ao Meng!
However, the anatomy research project he had been working on lately was stuck at a critical juncture that he simply could not resolve.
If only he could have a big shot point him in the right direction...
He suddenly recalled what his colleague had just said: the Red Society possessed the contact information for that academic genius, Queen.
But what was the Red Society?
It was the largest and most formidable volunteer rescue organization in the world! It was not affiliated with any country, nor did it listen to the interference of any financial consortium; it stood aloof and independent like a flower on a high mountain peak.
For the business titans of the Empire to invite a doctor from the Red Society to treat an illness, they had to pay an astronomical price...
He, Gou Dachun, was merely a university associate professor; how could he possibly obtain Queen's contact information?
But then, a thought occurred to him: the Red Society had a historical tradition of being willing to provide free assistance for critical and rare diseases among the impoverished.
Robbing the rich to help the poor.
This was the true reason why the Red Society was so renowned throughout the world.
Got it!
Gou Dachun excitedly began to tap at his keyboard, sending an email: "Hello, I am a destitute, dying schoolteacher. I would like to ask for help with my anatomy paper..."
Campus cafeteria.
At a solitary seat by the window.
Qin Xin sipped slowly on the soup Xiangxiang had meticulously stewed.
"Is it good, Little Miss?" Xiangxiang watched Qin Xin nervously, fearing she had no appetite.
Qin Xin curled her lips slightly: "This soup..."
Xiangxiang grew even more nervous: "If it's not good, I'll go make it again..."
The medicinal herbs worth four hundred thousand were too precious; she couldn't bear to throw away the dregs, so she had boiled them again, carefully incorporating them into the soup as a medicinal broth, hoping to fatten Qin Xin up a bit so that Young Master Jue would be happier when he saw her.
She thought Qin Xin didn't like it.
Qin Xin patted her small shoulder: "Xiangxiang, do you have a boyfriend?"
Xiangxiang blushed: "No, no."
Qin Xin: "If I were a man, I would marry a girl who can cook as well as you."
Xiangxiang was stunned, her face heating up slightly under Qin Xin's gaze.
Ying ying, she felt like she had been flirted with by the Little Miss!
The Little Miss praised her cooking!
How could the Little Miss be so handsome?
Just as she was thinking this, a burst of mocking laughter reached her ears—
"Look, that ugly freak is back. She caused trouble the moment she returned, making our Class 2 restless!"
"No wonder Instructor Gou from Class 1 was so angry he didn't even come to teach."
"She caused Yu Xiaochun to be so scared she fainted and was hospitalized, and she still has the nerve to eat here?"
"Is that face of hers even a face? It's more like a toad's skin, hahahaha..."
Xiangxiang felt distressed hearing this and asked Qin Xin in a low voice: "Little Miss, are they bullying you again?"
"No, it's always me bullying others." Qin Xin spoke the truth.
Those Spodoptera litura larvae were enough to keep Yao Dazhuang and Yu Xiaochun busy; they would be swollen for several days. Those moronic brats wanted to bully her? They were courting death.
However, seeing Xiangxiang's worried gaze, Qin Xin pondered for a moment.
Forget it, she should restrain herself.
Since the original owner was a pushover, she might as well keep a low profile.
"It's fine, I don't care," she said, patting Xiangxiang's shoulder to comfort her.
As for the chattering noises in her ears, she truly didn't take them to heart—
"No way, I'm disgusted by that ugly freak. I need to wash my eyes with some photos of the school beauty..."
"Who do you think the school beauty will be this year?"
"Besides our Class 1's Qin Wenrou, who else could it be?"
"That's true. Xiaochun was okay too, but now her face is swollen... sigh."
"Anyway, your Class 2 doesn't have any beauties left, and the competition in other departments is fierce now. You guys should help us vote for Qin Wenrou!"
A bunch of brats, making such a fuss over selecting a lousy school beauty?
Childish.
