Chapter 908: Accepting Yourself As A Disciple?
Huo Zhi kept a blank face and his tone was very calm as usual. “It’s just a temporary replacement. Gu Mang’s assessment has been arranged. When she passes, she will be put in charge of Base 102. You all agreed to this, including Leng Xuan.”
He tapped his knuckles on the table and reminded them.
Leng Xuan agreed to it on her own. In other words, she had made a silent agreement that as long as Gu Mang passed the assessment, she would hand Base 102 and the medicine’s recipe over. Back then, when Leng Xuan made the agreement, she was sure that Gu Mang would not pass the assessment. Her intention was to make the Elders’ Association give up on Gu Mang.
But Gu Mang’s performance at the competition had made Leng Xuan unsure again. She did not wish for new problems to arise from the current one and that was why she decided to make a move against Gu Mang.
“We don’t know when Leng Xuan is going to be discharged from the hospital. The progress of the various big projects at 102 Research Base cannot be delayed. With the Gu family’s current power, there is nothing that Gu Xian can do. We are just going to let him into the research lab to carry out various experiments,” Huo Zhi said.
The meeting room quieted down. The powers of the Gu family had long been distributed to the four big families and the Elders’ Association. Indeed, the Gu family was practically powerless.
“Gu Xian may be able to leave the supermax prison.” Head Elder squinted slightly. “But how is Young Lady going to take part in the assessment in her current state?”
One of her arms was useless.
Huo Zhi said, “I asked the doctors. She only needs a month to recuperate.”
There were a few seconds of silence in the meeting room.
“Fifteen days,” the Head Elder said as he looked at Huo Zhi with his sharp eyes. “After fifteen days, the Base 102 assessment will begin. If Young Lady passes it, Leng Xuan will be expelled. If she fails, we will begin to train Gu Si.”
He spoke in a very indirect manner but Huo Zhi understood.
The experiment on Gu Si many years ago had failed because Gu Mang had almost destroyed the entire base. If Gu Mang failed the assessment this time, she would have to go to Base 102 to participate in the experiments from back then.
At the same time, once it was proved that Leng Xuan was irreplaceable, they would try to appease Leng Xuan and provide compensation for the Leng family’s losses by using Gu Mang as a bargaining chip.
Although Gu Si was the one who injured Leng Xuan’s hands and burned the Leng family residence, he was still young. He was way easier to control than Gu Mang.
Elder Bai stood up fiercely and his expression was cold and sullen. “Head Elder, you know that Gu Mang’s injury will not heal in fifteen days and yet you say that you will begin the assessment system then. What do you mean by this?”
There was a chill in Huo Zhi’s eyes and anger flashed deep in his eyes.
Even if Gu Mang were not hurt, the assessment would be hell for her. Now that she was injured, Huo Zhi knew how things would turn out.
Head Elder no longer wished to waste anymore time on Gu Mang.
Elder Ye clenched his fists slightly and looked at everyone around the table. Everyone silently agreed to Head Elder’s ideas.
The Head Elder smiled. Hekept looking at Huo Zhi the entire time. “I don’t think you can make a decision on your own. Go and discuss it with Gu Mang.”
…
On Gu Mang’s side…
The competition was officially over. In the afternoon, the organizer and judges would hold a large-scale medical lecture for the remaining 15 teams. After the lecture ended, the teams could stay on Jijing Island for another day to visit the Jijing Special Institute and the Jijing Island Medical Museum.
Gu Mang did not have to attend as she was the champion.
Backstage.
Fei Luo looked at Gu Mang. “The Joint Medical Association has approved the nine formulas and they will be incorporated into the latest edition of medical textbooks next year.”
“Thank you.” Gu Mang nodded politely.
Fei Luo looked at her. “Gu Mang, do you know that there is a section in the “God Hand” magazine that is exclusive to a very mysterious, internationally renowned doctor?”
Gu Mang was silent for a second. Then, she answered nonchalantly, “Ah. I do.”
Fei Luo said, “This Miracle Doctor has been collaborating with me but I have never met him before. You are very talented, so I will try to find him. If he agrees to take you in as a disciple it will greatly help your medical career.”
Gu Mang said nothing.
Yu Mufeng and Jiangsui who had just come over heard what Fei Luo had said and they were speechless.
Accepting herself as a disciple? I wonder if Fei Luo would die of surprise if he found out that the ‘Miracle Doctor’ is the big boss who is standing right in front of him…
