Ms. Bigshot Is Pampered by All-Chapter 93 - 92 Academician Zhou
Chapter 93: Chapter 92 Academician Zhou
Zhou Wei was in his fifties this year, not only a member of the National Research Institute High-level Expert Group but also a world-renowned expert in hand surgery, who, like Lin Bo Tong, held Chi Gui dear like his own granddaughter.
Chi Gui was looking at the research data passed on by her colleagues from the institute and smiled upon hearing the words, “Alright, Grandpa Zhou, call me when you arrive.”
The Chi Family.
Old Sir Li sat in the seat of honor at the Chi Family, accompanied by Chi Changjing, Zhao Yuexiu, and Chi Yan at his side.
The two families got along well, with regular visits to each other.
Old Sir Li’s visit today was also due to a collaborative project he wanted to discuss with the Chi Family.
...
After talking business, Old Sir Li reached for the tea on the table. Suddenly, his hand trembled, the teacup tilted over the table, spilling tea across it.
Chi Changjing quickly ordered a servant to clean up and looked concernedly at Old Sir Li’s hand, “Your hand hasn’t healed yet?”
Old Sir Li withdrew his hand, forcing a smile and shook his head, “It’s an old injury from years ago; it can’t be healed anymore.”
He had thought of curing it in his younger years but had consulted many doctors, all to no avail.
If only the Academician from the National Institute’s Expert Group could examine him, there might still be a glimmer of hope, but with Old Sir Li’s connections, he simply couldn’t get an appointment.
For a while, the living room fell into a bit of silence.
Just then, as if Chi Yan had an idea, she said with a smile, “Oh, Grandpa Li, I heard from my professor that Academician Zhou Wei will be at his hospital dealing with some matters tomorrow… He’s fortunate to have a bit of a connection with Academician Zhou, maybe he can strive to secure a chance for your examination.”
Hearing her say this, Chi Changjing and Zhao Yuexiu were both somewhat overjoyed, “Really?”
Chi Yan nodded, “The professor said that when he went to Capital City before, he had a little chat with Academician Zhou, who seemed quite amiable and not difficult to talk to.”
Upon hearing this, Old Sir Li too grew excited, “Great, great… then please ask your professor to inquire about it tomorrow… Whatever preparations are needed, just say the word!”
This hand injury had troubled him for many years, to the extent that sometimes he couldn’t even pick up a piece of paper.
If it could be completely cured…
Old Sir Li, looking at Chi Changjing, praised, “Chang Jing, you truly have a wonderful daughter! If not for her, I would never have had the chance in my lifetime to see hope for curing my hand injury!”
Chi Yan shyly lowered her head, staying silent.

“You flatter me,” Chi Changjing was also happy inside.
If they could help cure Old Sir Li’s condition, then the Chi Family’s business… might just expand to Capital City with Old Sir Li’s assistance.
After another hour of chatting and confirming the time to meet at the hospital tomorrow, Old Sir Li stood to take his leave.
Upon reaching the door, he remembered something and asked, “Oh yes, where is Chi Gui?”
The matter from the last banquet was still a knot in his heart.
Upon mention of Chi Gui, the smiles faded somewhat from the faces of Chi Changjing and Zhao Yuexiu, “She made it clear last time that she was severing ties with us. Sigh… Once the child grows up, we can’t control her anymore.”
Old Sir Li’s mouth opened, but in the end, he said nothing.
If Chi Gui had been as outstanding as Chi Yan, even connecting with Academician Zhou, he might have reminded Chi Changjing of something more. But as it stood, she was not only from the rural areas but also headstrong and reckless, not knowing how to cherish her family… With such character, Mr. Fu might be smitten with her beauty for a moment, but it wouldn’t last long.
There was no need to say anything more.
–
The next day.
Chi Changjing, Zhao Yuexiu, Chi Yan, and Old Sir Li arrived at the hospital eagerly waiting as early as seven o’clock.
It wasn’t until nine o’clock that Zhou Wei got off the plane.
Once he did, he first made a call to Chi Gui.
