Chapter 368: Chapter 367: Inviting You to Be the Award Presenter
Due to the special treatment Old Sir Su and Zhang Tao received from Professor Han in public, the claims made by Chi Yan and Su Qing were easily believed.
As Su Qing walked upstairs, he heard his cousinās son say mockingly, āSo, itās all about connections in this society, whatās the use of just being capable?ā
Su Qing paused, feeling as if he had been slapped across the face.
In fact, he didnāt even have as much capability as themā¦
Su Haikang noticed Su Qingās unusual behavior and, not wanting to stay with Su Haiqingās family, found an excuse to go upstairs and called Su Qing to the study.
He intended to comfort Su Qing, but as soon as they entered the study, Su Qing said in a deep voice, āDad, I lied earlier⦠actually, today wasā¦ā
Su Qing briefly recounted what had happened in the hospital room and then said with some difficulty, āNian Nian⦠although she isnāt as good as me in theory, she definitely surpasses me in practical operations.ā
Although it was hard for him to admit that his sister, whom he had always looked down upon, had suddenly surpassed him, the truth was the truth, and Su Qing didnāt want to lie to himself.
Whatās moreā¦
Seeing Su Haikangās thoughtful expression, Su Qing pursed his lips and said, āDad, the teacher that Professor Han mentioned today⦠I think it might be⦠Chi Guiā¦ā
Immediately, Su Haikang shook his head, āAbsolutely not!ā
If it really was Chi Gui⦠how foolish a decision had the Su family made, and how great a benefit had they lost?
Su Haikang couldnāt even bear to think about it.
He stood up, patted Su Qing on the shoulder, and said, āYou and Chi Yan just perform well⦠as long as you are selected into the Expert Group, whatever identity Chi Gui has will become irrelevantā¦ā
After all, medical scholars who could enter the National Research Institute High-level Expert Group had a status that could rival that of the Four Great Families.
Even if Chi Gui was indeed a respected professor at Kyoto City Hospital, he would be considered insignificant in front of the medical scholars in the Expert Group.
Until now, the farthest Su Haikang could imagine was that Chi Gui and Professor Han held the same status, both as significant professors of Kyoto City Hospital.
Su Qing nodded, āI understand.ā
ā
The next day.
Unable to resist Old Sir Fuās cordial invitation from the previous night, Chi Gui agreed to have lunch at the Fu Familyās house today.
At half-past eleven in the morning, Qin Cheng arrived to pick her up, with Fu Si sitting in the back seat, rapidly typing something on his laptop.
Upon hearing the car door, he looked over, closed his laptop, and put it aside, his thin lips curving into a smile: āGood afternoon, Professor Chi.ā
Chi Gui: āGood afternoon.ā
Once she was seated, Qin Cheng started the car.
The ride was quiet.
Halfway there, Chi Guiās phone rang.
She took out her phone, glanced at the international number starting with 000, raised an eyebrow, but still answered.
The person on the other end spoke in fluent English, respectfully, āHello, is this Chi Gui, Professor from Huaxia Country? We are from the Beiding Geāer Award committee. We would like to invite you as a guest of honor at this yearās Beiding Geāer Award ceremony, are you available?ā
Chi Guiās phone volume was normal, but both Qin Cheng and Fu Si, having exceptional hearing, still caught some of it.
Qin Cheng was startled.
The Beiding Geāer Award had been established in 1960 and was the highest medical accolade internationally, conferred only once every three years, with at most 20 medals awarded each time to medical scholars who had made outstanding or significant contributions to the medical community.
