Madam's Identities Shocks The Entire City Again Chapter 439 - Taking Qiao Nian In

Chapter 439 - Taking Qiao Nian In

Liang Lu and Cheng Wu's expressions changed.

Mr. Huang was taking in students?!

Hadn't he stopped teaching students for years now?

Liang Lu's expression was the most awful. She wasn't afraid of Qiao Nian picking the Chinese Medicine Faculty. They were already in shambles, she wouldn't be able to achieve anything even if she joined them.

But Mr.. Huang taking in Qiao Nian changed the situation.

Part of the reason she'd been able to bring down the Chinese Medicine Faculty in recent years was also that Mr. Huang had left the scene. With his return, the status of the Chinese Medicine Faculty in Qing University would be very different as well.

Her mood was terrible as she tried to suppress her emotions. She felt the anger in her chest at full force while glaring at Qiao Nian. She simply could not figure out Qiao Nian's background and why Mr. Huang was willing to make such a huge s.h.i.+ft for her.

"Mr. Huang was taking in students?" Cheng Wu's expression wasn't too pleasant as he whispered in her ear.

Liang Lu didn't respond. Her eyes were locked in on the center of the cla.s.sroom, and her att.i.tude was as bad as her mood. "Can't Professor Cheng tell whether he is or not?"

She sounded explosive. Cheng Wu turned to glance at her and saw her anxious and almost embarra.s.sed expression. He had been feeling awful already, but for some reason, he felt like he'd found equilibrium when he saw how bad she looked.

He turned away from her and quietly observed the girl instead.

Mr. Huang's appearance made his words from before sound like a joke. But embarra.s.sed as he was, Liang Lu was surely more embarra.s.sed.

The thing about people was always comparison.

With comparison, even embarra.s.sment wasn't such a dreadful feeling.

…

Nie Mi hadn't expected him to want to take someone in and was now even more agitated than Qiao Nian. "You want to take Qiao Nian in?"

"That depends on whether she's willing to learn Chinese Medicine under me."

The elderly was energetic and had a rather imposing presence. His arms were still behind his back as he looked at Qiao Nian as if asking for her opinion. "Learning Chinese Medicine can be a complex and dry process. Perhaps even after years of studying it, you still won't have much of an achievement. But once you put your heart into it and learn it thoroughly, you'll learn that there's a lot of intriguing and interesting things about it. So, are you interested in studying Chinese Medicine under me?"

Qiao Nian came for the Chinese Medicine Faculty. Whether Mr. Huang came or not, she would have kept this decision anyway. Now, she replied simply, "Yes."

Just one word, short and sweet, without the unnecessary nonsense.

Some admiration could be in Mr. Huang's eyes. He looked up and smiled at Shen Yugui, saying, "What are you waiting for? We have one more student in the Chinese Medicine Faculty this year."

"Ah. I'll note it down right now."

Shen Yugui snapped out of his shock and quickly flipped through the students' file. He put a tick beside Qiao Nian's name in red ink. Just doing that alone excited him incredibly, and he said to Qiao Nian, "Junior, don't you worry. When you enroll with us, our Chinese Medicine Faculty will surely do our best to groom you. We won't let you regret your decision today!"

Calling her 'junior' just amplified the silence around.

Nie Mi was the first to react and to mediate the situation. "Teacher Shen, you're too agitated. Qiao Nian is only in her third year. She's a student and you're a teacher. No matter what, she should address you as Teacher Shen as a form of respect."

"Eh, doesn't matter." Shen Yugui wasn't bothered about these unimportant rules and regulations. He waved his hand as a smile appeared on his usually expressionless face. "According to the rules, she's a student and I'm a teacher. But outside of cla.s.s, she's a new student of my teacher, so that makes her my junior."

Nie Mi said, "A student is still a student."

He wasn't being stubborn for the sake of it. Realizing that his own actions would have an impact on Qiao Nian, Shen Yugui changed his mind and said, "I got it, Master Nie. I'll only call her Junior in private, but I'm still her teacher in school."
