Chapter 400: Chapter 399 Shameless
Airport waiting room.
Shi Liyun was accompanied by her assistant Wang Jie, surrounded by four or five other people. These individuals were from families related to the Capital City and the Jin Family, with Old Sir Jin standing at the forefront.
During this period, Shi Liyun had not only received international awards but, upon returning to her country, was promoted to Academician. She was even widely covered by major news outlets, achieving high internet popularity. It was no exaggeration to describe her as being in limitless glory.
Even for the trip abroad, the heads of families that could reach this level of connection, including the Jin Family, came in person to see her off.
"Academician Shi, with your strength, passing the entrance assessment of the International Medical Alliance will be as easy as flipping your hand," Old Sir Jin said with a beaming smile to Shi Liyun. "Don’t be nervous, just perform as you usually do." ƒreewebɳovel.com
The others chimed in agreement.
Indeed! With Academician Shi’s ability, it’s merely a formality!"
"How fortunate for Huaxia to have an Academician like Shi Liyun!"
While they were speaking, they saw Chi Gui, too, wheeling her luggage over.
Compared to the elaborately dressed Shi Liyun, Chi Gui’s attire was much simpler, still in her eternal casual T-shirt and jeans, hair tied back at the head, wearing a baseball cap. Under the brim of the cap, her almond-shaped eyes shone black and bright, making one feel particularly comfortable at the sight.
By her side followed Old Sir Shen, Han Zixuan, Old Sir Fu, and others.
Aside from the Jin Family, the rest of the Four Great Families of Kyoto came to bid farewell to Chi Gui.
For a moment, the people around Shi Liyun fell silent, their attention fixated on Chi Gui and her companions, until their figures disappeared from the lounge. It was then a member of a minor family said, "Professor Chi is going to the United States at this time; could it be she’s also attending the entrance assessment of the Medical Alliance? Didn’t she never participate before?"
No one responded to him.
Everyone knew very well in their hearts that Chi Gui’s sudden decision to take part in the Medical Alliance entrance assessment at this time clearly indicated that she was worried about Shi Liyun’s rapid development, almost eclipsing her own fame.
Shi Liyun didn’t look much at Chi Gui, simply lifting the handle of her suitcase with a remark, "It’s almost time; I’ll be going first."
She left with her assistant Wang Jie by another route, absolutely avoiding any encounter with Chi Gui and her group.

Old Sir Shen was still nagging, "Are you sure you don’t need to be assigned an assistant? How can you manage alone going to such a distant place without someone by your side?"
Old Sir Shen had been grumbling all the way, and Chi Gui patiently refused, "It’s really not necessary, I’m just going for an assessment. It’s more trouble with too many people. I lived in the United States for several years; there’s no problem at all."
Seeing there was no persuading her, Old Sir Shen had to relent.
As the time for boarding neared, Chi Gui said her goodbyes to everyone else and lined up to board the plane.
Only after Chi Gui boarded the plane did Old Sir Shen turn to Old Sir Fu, voicing his confusion, "Where’s your boy? Hasn’t he been chasing after her? How come he didn’t come to send off Miss Chi?"
Old Sir Fu smiled and stroked his chin with an air of a wise man, "That boy has business to take care of in the United States; he’s already gone ahead."
Old Sir Shen: ??
He nearly blurted out "Shameless!"
Han Zixuan had matters to attend to in his company, and after bidding the two elders farewell, he left first.
Old Sir Fu and Old Sir Shen went synchronously to the teahouse they often frequented.

Chi Gui disembarked the plane, carrying her luggage and walked out, spotting Qin Cheng holding a huge pick-up sign at first glance.
