After Du Yun left, Chen Ting couldn't help but ask, "Ayan, don't you ever meet any ordinary people?"
She felt that none of the people who came to see Su Yan were simple.
Su Yan turned to look at her and smiled, "Everyone around me is just an ordinary person, there's no difference between them."
"No, I mean, for ordinary people like us, your friend was clearly a big boss."
Deng Ziyi chimed in, "She still seems to be a decisive and efficient career woman."
Who doesn't want to be a strong, successful woman? Unfortunately, many are willing but unable to.
I don't have their perseverance and skills.
Su Yan felt that the term "strong woman" was quite fitting for Du Yun.
"Alright, stop discussing it and go back to studying. You guys have a quiz on Friday."
When the quiz was mentioned, Chen Ting and Deng Ziyi immediately put away their gossipy nature.
Of the three of them, only Bai Meng has good grades. Deng Ziyi and Chen Ting are both loud and boisterous. If they don't study, they probably won't even get 80 points.
The main problem is that studying this field is quite difficult, regardless of the major, and they find it challenging.
Deng Ziyi had Bai Meng to tutor her, so Chen Ting had to work hard on her own.
Su Yan didn't understand their professional knowledge, so she couldn't help them with their review.
...
Friday morning.
The scores for the quiz on the combined Chinese and Western major are out.
There were a total of 85 students, 38 of whom failed the Traditional Chinese Medicine program and 30 of whom failed the Western Medicine program.
Most of the students who didn't fail the remaining two subjects passed by barely passing.
Friday morning classes were changed to a meeting for both classes together.
The main speakers at the meeting were Director Zhong and the TCM teacher from Class 2.
Southern Medical University has only two TCM teachers. The TCM teacher in Class 2 has more experience than the teacher in Class 1, so he will be the main lecturer for TCM today.
Students from two classes sat in the large classroom.
Su Yan was seated in the front row by her counselor.
However, she didn't notice anything amiss, her mind preoccupied with Jiang Jingxing's matter.
He can go out tomorrow morning, and he will come to the school to pick her up so they can go to the restaurant for the opening ceremony together.
She was very happy to see me tomorrow since we hadn't seen each other for a long time, but then things got a little complicated.
She hesitated, wondering whether she should ask him tomorrow.
Then, at eight o'clock, the meeting started on time.
On the podium, Director Zhong cleared her throat, snapping out of her reverie and looking at the stage.
"Good morning, students and teachers. The main purpose of this meeting is to discuss the results of the first quiz of this semester with you. The integrated Chinese and Western medicine program is a new major established this year, and the school attaches great importance to it."
This test has also shown us how well you have been learning over the past two weeks. As your advisors have told you, the results are not ideal. Only five students scored above 80 in both subjects, and only one student scored above 90.
This student who scored over 90 points actually surprised me quite a bit. She is Su Yan, who scored 99 points in Traditional Chinese Medicine and 97 points in Western Medicine. Su Yan even delayed her registration by two weeks. It is really amazing to be able to achieve such results. I hope that every student here can learn from Su Yan in the future.
Without further ado, let's welcome our quiz winner to the stage to receive their certificate of honor. Let's give them a round of applause!
Everyone present turned their gaze to Su Yan in the front row and raised their hands to give her thunderous applause.
Su Yan was stunned for a moment, but quickly recovered, put on a polite smile, and walked to the podium.
After she received the certificate from Director Zhong, Director Zhong continued, "Does Su Yan have any study methods to share with other students? Or is there anything she would like to say to other students?"
After he finished speaking, Director Zhong handed her the microphone.
Su Yan glanced helplessly at Director Zhong, then took the microphone.
She looked up at the crowd and said in a sincere and earnest tone: "Good morning, everyone. Actually, getting this score was unexpected for me, since I missed two weeks of classes and was worried that I wouldn't be able to catch up."
To be honest, before coming to school, I reviewed the textbook content at home, but the only advantage was that I had my mentor to teach me, otherwise I wouldn't have been able to improve so quickly.
In our major, besides rote memorization, we also need to be attentive and careful. I am just an ordinary student, and this quiz may have had an element of luck.
I hope that in the next quiz, more students will improve or even surpass me. In the future, I hope that all of you here will carry forward the long-standing tradition of Traditional Chinese Medicine and elevate Western medicine to a higher level. Thank you for your applause!
After speaking, she took a step back, held the certificate of honor, and bowed at a ninety-degree angle.
There was a moment of silence in the audience, followed by even louder applause.
Director Zhong looked at Su Yan with admiration, and the flame that Xie Jin had extinguished was revived.
"After the meeting, come to my office and wait for me," Director Zhong said in a low voice.
Su Yan responded and then stepped off the stage.
Next, Director Zhong said some encouraging words and informed the students that there would be no need to attend the remaining classes today, allowing them to have a break.
The assembly concluded amidst excited cheers from the students.
After everyone left, the TCM teacher from Class 2 approached Director Zhong, who was about to return to his office. "Director Zhong, I'd like to ask who Su Yan's master is? Has she formally become his apprentice?"
Director Zhong chuckled upon seeing the newcomer, "Old Wei, you've taken a liking to Su Yan too?"
Old Wei remained noncommittal, then impatiently said, "Stop talking nonsense and answer me quickly."
Director Zhong didn't keep him hanging, saying, "You're too late. Su Yan's master is Master Jue."
Upon hearing this, Old Wei's expression changed, and the hope in his eyes dimmed.
He snorted coldly, unwillingly saying, "The old man's eye is still sharp. How come he always gets to snatch up all the good things? Since it's him... fine."
After muttering to himself, Old Wei walked away with his hands behind his back, looking quite lonely.
Director Zhong felt heartbroken watching this, sighed regretfully, shook his head, and left.
...
In the office.
Feeling uneasy under Director Zhong's intense gaze, Su Yan said speechlessly, "Director, you've been staring at me for five minutes now. What do you want to see me about?"
Director Zhong glanced at the time before saying, "Su Yan, are you really not interested in studying Western medicine?"
"Isn't my major Western medicine?" she asked, puzzled.
“What I mean is specializing in Western medicine,” Director Zhong said excitedly. “If you have this idea, I will definitely teach you everything I have learned in my life.”
Su Yan instantly understood his meaning and immediately put on a sad face. "Director Zhong, it's not that I don't want to, it's that I'm powerless to do so. But Western medicine is just as important to me. Currently, I'm focusing on traditional Chinese medicine, but if I have the opportunity in the future, I will definitely study Western medicine. You can rest assured about that."
