Before Chi Gui was brought back, Chi Changjing had thoroughly investigated her.
According to the records, Chi Gui had dropped out of school during her second year of high school to work out of town and only returned to the village half a year ago.
With her educational background, she couldn't enter a proper university.
However, Chi Changjing didn't actually expect her to learn much. He thought about enrolling her in any university that only required money for admission, to get a degree and just introduce her to others in the future.
"My school is quite good," Chi Yan suddenly spoke up, "Why not let sister attend my school?"
Zhao Yuexiu looked at Chi Yan with affection, "Stop it, your sister can't get in."
"Why not?" Chi Yan asked, her eyes filled with innocent curiosity.
Zhao Yuexiu's voice carried a hint of scorn, "She dropped out in her second year of high school. She can't even get into an ordinary, proper university, let alone the first-rate institution that is Nancheng Medical College, where you study."
"I see…" Chi Yan didn't say anything more. As she lowered her head to sip her soup, the corners of her lips curled slightly, "Then Dad, you'll have to find a good school for sister…"
"There's no need to trouble yourself," Chi Gui finished her last bite of food, pulled a napkin from the table and wiped her mouth before she spoke.
Her voice was calm and indifferent, her eyes, glassy, looked at Chi Changjing, "Thank you for your kindness. But I've already found a school."
"You've found one? Which university?" Chi Changjing was surprised.
Chi Gui: "Nancheng Medical College."
She was originally involved in neurosurgical research; attending medical college was most suitable.
It would allow her to recover from her injury and also help her future colleagues.
"Pfft!" Chi Yan almost spit out her porridge, her eyes wide as she looked at Chi Gui with a hint of amusement in her voice, "Sister, do you even know what Nancheng Medical College is? Did you think it's very easy to get in just because you heard me mention it once?"
Before Chi Gui could respond, Chi Mingkun spoke dismissively, "Of course, that must be it! If she knew that Nancheng Medical College is a 985 institution that's only second to top domestic schools like Huaxia and Hua Zhong, how could she have the face to say such a thing?"
Chi Changjing nodded, "Chi Gui, at your age, even if you entered college, you would have to start in your third year. Aside from the fact that you have no medical experience, even if you did, there's no way Nancheng Medical College would make an exception to admit you."
Chi Gui couldn't be bothered to waste words with them, "I've finished eating. Thank you for the meal."
After saying this, she stood up and went upstairs.
"Look at her, just look!" Zhao Yuexiu looked down on her, "That's just typical arrogance with no actual ability! Yanyan worked so hard, struggled so much during her entire senior year of high school, just to finally get into Nancheng Medical College. And her, not even fully completing her second year, yet dreaming of reaching the sky in a single step!"
Chi Yan did not speak, quietly continuing to sip her soup.
Chi Changjing sighed.
He once thought she was obedient and compliant, but now it seemed she was nothing but a thorn in his side.
-
The next day.
In the office of the president of Nancheng Medical College.
Lin Bo Tong looked at the young girl in front of him with endearment, "Chi Gui, how is your hand?"
He had heard about it as well. A distraught patient, upon realizing their condition was incurable, pulled out a knife and stabbed at Chi Gui, attempting to take her with them to death.
The knife was only a centimeter away from Chi Gui's heart. If not for her quick reaction, using her hand to block, she might have been dead.
Even though she blocked it, her hand was pierced, many nerves were severed, and it was severely injured.
Chi Gui smiled, "Grandpa Lin, thank you for your concern. Grandpa Zhou has examined me, the wound has already healed. With proper care over the next year, a full recovery shouldn't be a problem."
Before Lin Bo Tong was transferred to be the president, he was a senior member of the Expert Group at the National Medical Research Institute.
When Chi Gui was admitted to the Medical Research Institute, she was just twenty years old, the youngest member of the group.
