Chapter 672: Chapter 673: Offending Old Three
This realization made Guan Xue very angry. She stared at Nianyang with a cold smile, "What are you proud of? Is it just because youâre physically fit? In my view, youâre just muscle-bound!"
Donât forget weâre doctors, and what matters is medical skill. Iâve heard, you come from the countryside, right? Your medical skills rely entirely on reading books, thatâs really pitiful!"
Following behind Guan Xue were several girls who fawned over her status, and they chimed in like a chorus.
"Exactly, unlike our Snow sister who is a second-generation doctor. Iâve heard her ancestors were once Imperial Physicians, and she could diagnose a pulse at eight years old!"
"Really? Then this Gu Nianyangâs medical skills definitely canât compare to our Snow sister. Who could possibly match up to her!"
Guan Xue was smug, casting a critical glance at Nianyang,
"Did you hear that? My medical skills are the best, youâd better keep your head down and stop overstepping!"
Nianyang slightly curled her lips, "Yes, Miss Guan, youâre the most impressive. You might as well be Hua Tuo reincarnated."
Though the words were seemingly flattering, Guan Xue felt uncomfortable as if Nianyang was mocking her.
It felt like punching a pillow, and Guan Xue, face flushed from anger, said,
"Hmph, acknowledging your limitations is whatâs best!"
Guan Xue stormed off, planning to think of a way to publicly humiliate Nianyang to get back at her.
He Huixi came over with a bottle of water next to Nianyang, "Nianyang, donât listen to Guan Xue. Sheâs just conceited because her mom is the head of the medical association, and even if you donât measure up to her, thatâs okay. Sheâs been learning medicine since childhood, so you definitely canât compete."
Nianyang looked curiously at He Huixi, surprised by her change in attitude, as she usually disliked her.
Nianyang wasnât convinced that He Huixi had really changed, so she distanced herself and said, "He Huixi, just talk normally."
He Huixi suppressed the glint in her eyes, slightly smiled, "Nianyang, I know about your connection with the Chu Family now. I didnât realize you were the real eldest Miss of the Chu Family, and Chu Huan was just an impostor. I apologize for my prior misunderstandings."
He Huixi, being the daughter of the He Family, ranked second among the three major families, was naturally aware of the Jiang Familyâs major reshuffle and the recovery of their long-lost daughter. Her parents checked casually and found the related details.
Now since Nianyang is Chu Zhanâs real sister, He Huixi, who likes Chu Zhan, naturally wants to win Nianyang over.
Thus, she swallowed her disgust and proactively approached Nianyang.
Nianyang wasnât surprised that He Huixi knew about this matter. She gave a polite smile, regardless of whether He Huixi was sincere in her words, she just went through the motions.
He Huixi said softly, "Nianyang, rest assured, I know you donât want this publicized. I wonât tell anyone. I just want to be friends with you."
Nianyang said lukewarmly thanks, and since He Huixi didnât get the warmth she expected, she was somewhat unwilling and said, "Nianyang, weâre friends, right? When will you invite me to your place?"
Nianyang asked oddly, "Why does being friends mean you have to visit my place?"
He Huixi replied, "Or you could come to my place, and remember to bring your brother along. Letâs have a gathering."
Oh, after all the talk, the real intention is to get close to her brother, Chu Zhan!
