Chapter 184: Rejected
Old Master Huo knew that Mr. Song came to provoke him just to make a demonstration, so he narrowed his eyes but did not speak immediately.
Chen Zhuyi's future is naturally her own responsibility.
"Of course not. I can do it by myself. Why should I ask for your help?" Chen Zhu said with certainty.
After Huo Qiyun gritted his teeth and clenched his fists, there was a hint of sarcasm in his eyes. He snorted again, and his expression was particularly ugly.
Mr. Song stared at them straightly, clearly not believing what Chen Zhuyi said, but still trying to persuade him.
"Little girl, a family like this is not something you can easily climb up to. If you give up your future for them, that would definitely be the most unprofitable deal."
"Maybe he's dating you right now, but privately, he's been in contact with countless other people."
Mr. Song snorted again, his tone full of understanding.
"Are you so concerned about our relationship?" Chen Zhu blinked, with a hint of doubt in his eyes.
They had obviously never met before, but Mr. Song was like a gossip, only paying attention to the relationship between them. It was really weird.
"I don't really care about what happens between you young people." Mr. Song took a deep breath and said this with a little lack of confidence.
The slightly cold and dry words made Chen Zhu raise an eyebrow in suspicion: "Really? Then you came to give me the admission notice just out of kindness as an elder?"
This sentence put Mr. Song in a difficult position.
If he nodded in agreement, he would just have to hand over the admission qualification to Chen Zhuyi, but he was really unwilling to do so.
If he didn't admit it, it would be like he was agreeing with what Chen Zhuyi had just said.
This dilemma made Mr. Song's face look a little embarrassed.
After a long while, he casually threw the admission qualification aside and said through gritted teeth, "Since your family needs this, I'll leave it to you. You little girl may not be able to cause any trouble!"
"No need for that. You should just take back your fake kindness. Without these academic qualifications, my personal abilities won't be easily erased."
Chen Zhuyi stood in front of Mr. Song and directly returned the admission qualification to him.
Mr. Song, who was about to leave after hearing the harsh words, felt as if a basin of cold water was poured over his head after hearing Chen Zhuyi's words. He left the place in disgrace like a drowned chicken.
The high-spirited attitude he had when he first entered the door disappeared completely.
"Have you really thought it through? This is Peking University, not some small school." Seeing Chen Zhuyi's attitude, Mr. Huo sighed and finally confirmed it to her.
"No matter how good an institution is, it is only a gilding of people's gild. If you are gold yourself, why do you need that layer of glory?" Chen Zhu said it in a generous and casual manner, waving his little hand.
This heroic quality made Mr. Huo's eyes light up, and his admiration was undisguised: "Indeed, if it is gold itself, then there is no need for anything else to match it."
"Since you already have an idea for your future, then go ahead and try to do it. I support you. Young people, you have to learn through trial and error. Even if you fall, you'll always get back up."
Having said that, when Mr. Huo turned his head to look at Huo Qiyun, there was a rare hint of tenderness in his eyes.
Huo Qiyun, who was standing next to him, shook off the goosebumps on his body, feeling that his grandfather was changing in a bad direction.
"Please sit down and have your meal first. I will consult other professionals about your future plans." Old Master Huo waved his hand to signal everyone that they could eat, and then emphasized on explaining the information about Chen Zhu that he had seen that day.
"He was the one who sent your information here amidst a bunch of official business. Although I'm old, I'm not so ignorant of right and wrong as to do something so rude in front of you."
He was willing to explain, and his tone was calm, without any of the airs of a head of household. Instead, he seemed more like a good friend around him.
Chen Zhu was flattered and nodded heavily. She had a very enjoyable meal and she felt a sense of belonging to the Huo family.
"I know a few good experts abroad. If you think you're truly accomplished in biology, then find a way to prove yourself. I'll recommend you to them."
After everyone had eaten and drunk their fill and left, Huo Qiyun immediately caught up with them and said this with a bit of pride.
After all, he started his fortune abroad, so he has a good foundation and a wide network of contacts.
"There's no need for that. How could people abroad be sincere towards people like us?" Chen Zhu smiled and shook his head with a dark look in his eyes.
She has thought of the best way to prove herself!
"Can you... prepare a copy of all the special medicines imported from abroad used by the military? Just one will do. If you can't find any, you can use an empty bottle."
Chen Zhuyi turned his head and looked at Huo Jinzhi.
She wants to translate all the medicines, check for omissions and find out those with problems.
With this achievement, it will be easier to apply for your own laboratory.
"What do you want those drugs for? If he secretly brings them out for you, that's a violation. If they find out, both of you will be punished!"
Huo Qiyun stopped it immediately and thought of a solution.
"I can help you buy some from the black market."
"Just go through the formal approval process. I hope to have all the medicines re-translated while I'm still in Beijing."
Chen Zhu blinked. She didn't want to steal the medicine and sell it. As long as Huo Jinzhi could explain the situation clearly to his superiors, no one would stop him.
"You?" Huo Qiyun looked at Chen Zhuyi and examined her carefully, but he couldn't see any remarkable qualities in this girl.
"Just because you can say hello doesn't mean you understand English. Even I can't understand those professional medicines. How can you be so confident?"
Although he was accusing her, Huo Qiyun's eyes were involuntarily attracted to her.
"Do you need me to teach you the truth that you can't judge a book by its cover?" Chen Zhu retorted, holding Huo Jinzhi's hand tightly.
The difficulty of this matter lies in the fact that she is still a very young girl and may not be able to convince those seniors.
But it also depends on how Huo Jinzhi performs.
"If you want, I'll do my best to help you." Huo Jinzhi only said this, and took her hand and went back to the room.
Huo Qiyun wanted to follow in, but saw the door slammed shut mercilessly, locking him out.
