Chapter 382 International Finals! Please, Divine Healer! [2 Updates]
Wen Tinglan also knew why Wen Fengmian would ask that question.
Because of Norton University.
That woman is driven by self-interest; who can guarantee she won't come back to them after she knows he's enrolled at Norton University?
Wen Tinglan frowned slightly: "Dad, you mustn't be soft-hearted."
"How could that be?" Wen Fengmian's expression gradually faded. "You and Yaoyao are the most important people. Dad understands that very well. Besides, she did such a thing to you back then. I can't forgive her, and I can't trust her anymore."
He sighed as he spoke, "It's my fault too."
When Wen Tinglan was five years old, his biological mother came back once.
At that time, Wen Tinglan's psychological problems were not particularly serious, but he had claustrophobia and did not like to talk to unfamiliar people.
The woman was unaware of this; she only felt that her son was not close to her.
In a fit of anger, she locked Wen Tinglan in the room, turned off all the lights, and left without looking back.
Coincidentally, Ying Zijing developed a fever that night, and Wen Fengmian carried her to the town hospital.
Originally, Wen Tinglan was supposed to be brought along, but Wen Tinglan has never liked hospitals.
Left with no other choice, Wen Fengmian had no choice but to believe his ex-wife.
Even a tiger won't eat its cubs.
No one expected things to turn out that way.
Wen Tinglan's condition worsened from then on, and she didn't speak for several years, not even to Wen Fengmian and Ying Zijin.
For the next ten years or so, that woman never returned.
Wen Tinglan hesitated for a moment: "Dad, they're not really coming to find you, are they?"
"No." Wen Fengmian shook his head slightly. "Don't worry about them, let's eat."
Wen Tinglan picked up her chopsticks when there was a knock on the door.
Wen Fengmian looked up: "Who's here?"
Wen Tinglan is an SS-level student, and his treatment is incomparable to that of other students. His dormitory is a single villa.
Normally, no one comes except for the senior students.
Today is the Lunar New Year in China, but not for others.
"I'll go open the door." Wen Tinglan got up, walked over, and opened the door.
Then I saw the vice principal with his hands behind his back, looking very serious.
Wen Tinglan was taken aback: "Hello, Vice Principal."
"Alright, alright, I'm all better." The vice principal coughed a few times. "You just spoke to your sister on the phone, didn't you?"
Wen Tinglan didn't know why he asked that, but she nodded nonetheless.
The vice principal rubbed his hands together: "Did she even say hello to me?"
"No."
The boy had a "why would I greet you?" look on his face.
Vice Principal: "..."
He knew he was just a tool.
Wen Tinglan asked, "Is there anything else?"
"Yes, of course." The vice principal said seriously, "Well, I know that you Chinese play mahjong during the Chinese New Year."
Wen Tinglan was slightly surprised that the vice principal knew so much about their customs, and then nodded: "Yes, they do."
"Look, there are three of us, so we can't play mahjong." The vice principal slowly pulled a deck of cards from his pocket. "How about playing Dou Dizhu?"
"..."

The new year has passed in the blink of an eye, and the ISC semi-finals officially ended at the end of February.
The rankings have been published on the official website.
The one in first place remains the mysterious overall leader, and is far ahead of the competition.
However, this top-ranked person has not yet revealed their identity or name, and many viewers on the Shark Live platform have not been able to match this top-ranked person with any academic experts.
They didn't even consider Ying Zijin's perspective.
After all, once a normal person gets a spot in the international competition, they won't have the time or inclination to participate in the qualifying rounds and semi-finals.
As Ying Zijin's popularity continues to rise, more and more people are paying attention to ISC.
Although most people couldn't understand the questions, a betting game was started online because of them.
When betting on the international finals, who will rank higher, Ying Zijing or the overall number one?
[Place your bet! Is the top player on the overall leaderboard stronger, or is Ying Shen stronger?]
I'm betting on Ying Shen, not for any particular reason, I just look at his face.
The top-ranked player is clearly insanely strong; their problem-solving speed is unmatched. I'm betting on them to be number one.
In Class 19, Xiu Yu looked at these comments and stroked his chin: "Why isn't there an option to bet that you and the top-ranked player are the same person?"
Upon hearing this, Ying Zijing took off her headphones: "Bet? There's money to be made?"
Xiu Yu was speechless: "No, it's just a vote."
"oh."
The girl put her headphones back on and stopped paying attention.
After browsing Weibo, Xiu Yu became interested: "Daddy Ying, shall I go with you to the international finals?"
"You need to do well on the college entrance exam." Ying Zijing yawned and raised an eyebrow. "Don't come to see me if you don't score above 650."
Xiu Yu: "..."
She silently turned to the side and saw Jiang Ran frantically doing practice problems.
Ever since his rampaging internal energy was completely suppressed, this guy has become hopelessly addicted to physics and mathematics.
Xiu Yu silently took out a golden exam paper and began to write.
**
There were 1200 spots in the international finals, and Ying Yuexuan ranked 1109th, so she naturally made it into the international finals.
Zhong Manhua wasn't particularly happy when she found out.
She felt uneasy.
Around the New Year, many wealthy ladies came to visit her, and they all told her the same thing.
Even their tone of voice is the same.
"Ying Zijing is truly amazing. She became an internet sensation with just one piano piece, and she's a prodigy promoted by the TV station. What a pity, Manhua, why isn't she your biological daughter?"
"Otherwise, you could have benefited from it too. Sigh, there's really no way around it. She's already left the Ying family, so you can't get any benefit from it."
Zhong Manhua couldn't kick her out, so she could only listen reluctantly. Her mood worsened, and she even gave Ying Yuexuan a cold look.
Ying Yuexuan struggled to get into the international finals, but Ying Zijin had already secured a spot.
It's easy to tell who's more capable at a glance.
Zhong Manhua sat on the sofa in a daze, not even noticing that Ying Yuexuan had come home.
"Mom, the medical doctor I asked my senior to invite has arrived." Ying Yuexuan pursed her lips, her fingers clenching tightly. "When will he examine Grandma?"
"Really?" Zhong Manhua was taken aback at first, then overjoyed. "You've already arrived in Shanghai?"
"Hmm." Ying Yuexuan took out her phone and pulled up a file. "This is Dr. Nora, who enjoys a high reputation internationally."
Zhong Manhua took a look and immediately forgot her discomfort: "Xiao Xuan, thank goodness we have you, otherwise we wouldn't have been able to invite such a brilliant medical doctor."
To put it bluntly, the Ying family's business scope was too small.
He has no connection with the academic or medical communities, nor any personal connections.
Zhong Manhua comforted herself in her heart.
Regardless, Ying Yuexuan is still very outstanding; at least Ying Zijin is unable to treat Old Madam Ying.
She made the right choice.
Moreover, the Yuan family has already arranged for Ying Yuexuan and Yuan Jiacheng to get engaged.
But what about Ying Zijin?
There's still no sign of anything happening between her and Fu Yunshen.
Maybe it's just for fun.
Only when things stabilize can Zhong Manhua feel at ease.
“Then we’ll go right away.” Zhong Manhua stood up. “Is Dr. Nora free right now?”
"Yes, she is." Ying Yuexuan secretly breathed a sigh of relief. "She is at the First Hospital."
Zhong Manhua nodded, called Ying Zhenting, and then took Ying Yuexuan to the First Hospital.
Madam Ying's headaches worsened day by day, so she stayed in the hospital.
After Nora finished examining Madam Ying, she left the ward.
Ying Zhenting rushed forward: "Dr. Nora, how is she?"
“The old lady’s headache is indeed quite strange.” Nora frowned, hesitated slightly, and said, “I’m not sure. I need to ask someone to take a look with me.”
Upon hearing this, both Ying Zhenting and Zhong Manhua's expressions changed.
Even Nora found Madam Ying's illness difficult to treat and wanted to invite another doctor.
Nora has treated many difficult and complicated diseases; otherwise, she wouldn't have such a high status in the medical field.
Pei Tianyi was able to help Ying Yuexuan invite her here because she had once owed Pei Tianyi a favor.
When the lab lost some important items, it was Pei Tianyi who helped track them down.
Zhong Manhua was very nervous: "Dr. Nora, what are the chances of a cure?"
“I’m fifty percent sure,” Nora smiled. “If you include her, I’m ten percent sure.”
Zhong Manhua finally breathed a sigh of relief: "I wonder who Dr. Nora wants to invite?"
She guessed that for Nora to personally invite him, he must be a very skilled and renowned doctor from O Continent.
“Wait a moment,” Nora said. “I’ll make a call; she’s in Shanghai.”
Zhong Manhua was taken aback: "Right in Shanghai?"
Nora nodded and took out her phone.
She found Ying Zijing's WeChat and made a voice call.
Three seconds later, the call was connected.
Nora spoke up: "Hello, Ying."
Good morning for the new week!
When do I get a holiday? I don't have any holidays, but I officially finish my exams on the 7th of next month _(:з」∠)_
