Chapter 411: Chapter 410 Phoenix, Playing Dumb

Qin Cheng: ?

Fu Sixiu’s slender fingers set down the chopsticks, he lightly raised his eyes toward the door.

He saw three men in suits standing outside; the man at the front appeared to be in his fifties, exuding an aura of long-held authority, his expression stern. The two men standing behind him looked to be in their forties and were likely his assistants.

Fu Si did not recognize them.

He stood up, his phoenix eyes smiled warmly, yet there was a cold glint at the bottom of his eyes: “Who might you be?”

Peng Xiao glanced at Fu Si, who, like him, held a high position—one could tell much at a glance.

He softened his expression, introducing himself: “Is Doctor Chi Gui here? I am Peng Xiao, a member of the International Medical Alliance, and I need to speak with her.”

To make the people in front of him believe him, he even took out his work ID.

“People from the International Medical Alliance?” Qin Cheng was surprised, “Hasn’t the examination finished? What else is there?”

Fu Si did not speak; he took Peng Xiao’s ID and examined it, then turned to look at Chi Gui: “The ID seems to be valid.”

Although Fu Si knew little about the International Medical Alliance, he knew that their IDs were made from special materials. The craft of embossing each person’s name was still unbroken and impossible to forge.

Chi Gui, holding her chopsticks, sighed imperceptibly.

When she answered that question, although she expected to cause a small sensation within the Medical Alliance, she didn’t expect that even someone of Peng Xiao’s stature would be drawn out…

At this point, Chi Gui could only stand up, with a face full of “proud surprise,” and walked over to Peng Xiao, saying: “Ah, that’s me. May I ask what you need?”

She played the part of a lesser-known individual meeting her idol in her dreams very convincingly.

After all, to those in the Medical Alliance, those who failed to join viewed them as idols.

Peng Xiao stood at the doorway, his sharp eyes scrutinizing Chi Gui up and down for a long time, before finally, somewhat disappointedly giving up and asked: “What is your relation to ’Phoenix’?”

Before coming, he meticulously listened to that recording several times, confirming that this response had been refined, a simpler and more advanced approach than before.

Until standing at the door, Peng Xiao was somewhat excited, thinking he might meet the “Phoenix,” who had made a global impact on the medical field three years ago yet mysteriously disappeared.

But now it seemed…

Peng Xiao inwardly laughed at himself for thinking too much.

This girl, indistinguishable from other medical scholars, how could she be that formidable person?

Chi Gui wore a puzzled expression: “Phoenix? What Phoenix?”

Peng Xiao had no choice but to rephrase his question: “Who told you the answer to the question during the interview?”

“Oh, that…” Chi Gui feigned a sudden realization, “I met a woman while studying abroad by chance. We chatted briefly and happened to discuss this world-class problem, she then explained it to me. I found her explanation quite logical, so I recorded it with a voice recorder and memorized it repeatedly.”

Peng Xiao didn’t quite believe her explanation.

But since she was unwilling to reveal more, he did not press her; after all, once admitted into the International Medical Alliance, there would be plenty of opportunities to investigate slowly.

He came today for another reason as well.

Peng Xiao politely asked: “May I come in and discuss this with you further?”

Chi Gui did not want an in-depth discussion with him, but to maintain her reputation, she could only pretend to be happy: “Ah, I’m sorry, I’m so excited to see you, I forgot about that… Please, come in!”

Peng Xiao nodded to Fu Si and Qin Cheng as a greeting before coming in.

His two assistants stood guard at the doorway.

As soon as Peng Xiao entered, he took out a sleek tablet from his bag, activated a complex formula, and questioned: “Can you solve this?”
