"No, I came with my students."
"Hmm?"
Nian Lin looked in the direction she pointed. Several pairs of eyes were staring straight at him. He was startled out of his wits.
"Damn it!"
"All of them?"
"Yeah."
"That's not right. Aren't you a student yourself? Then what are you doing here?"
"I'm here as their tutor."
Nian Lin: "..."
Fine. Such an extraordinary achievement was truly beyond their imagination.
How old was she and she'd already been hired as a tutor?
And a tutor for medical students, no less!
"When did you come? When are you planning to go back?"
"I'll go back after I'm done. I've been here for a few days."
Nian Lin complained aggrievedly, "Good grief. You came to Beijing and didn't even come to see us. If Grandpa found out, he'd be really sad."
Shi Wan: "..."
She shifted her gaze and simply ignored him.
"Alright, alright. I'm not joking with you anymore." Nian Lin said seriously, "There are quite a lot of people this year. The competition is really fierce. Are you sure your students can make it?"
"If nothing unexpected happens, there should be no major problems."
To get in, one not only had to be tested on knowledge points but also on logical thinking and so on. It was a comprehensive assessment.
They were okay in terms of knowledge. As for the rest, it depended on themselves.
Shi Wan didn't recognize the person in charge. He should have joined the research institute later.
There was no unnecessary nonsense, and there was only one round of the test, which could be completed in as fast as half an hour.
There was nothing they could do. They were told to wrap it up as soon as possible because there was still a lot of research to be done.
"Wanwan, we're going."
Before leaving, Sang Lin ran up to her and said.
"Okay. Come on."
Shi Qing watched with a smug look on her face. If she got into the research institute this time, her achievements would far surpass Shi Wan's.
So what if she was a divine doctor?
She'd still have to watch her be respected, and the Shi family would surely rise again.
Shen Siyan was sitting in the monitoring room. His eyes hadn't left Shi Wan since she came in. His eyes were full of affection until Nian Lin showed up. Then his expression changed slightly.
Wasn't this the man he'd seen before?
Why was he getting so close to his little wife again?
Watching the two of them chatting more and more intently, the man couldn't help but call her.
Shi Wan glanced at the phone and motioned for Nian Lin to be quiet.
"Shen Siyan."
"Sweetheart, what are you doing?"
Shen Siyan had seen the whole scene just now. He felt as if the vinegar jar in his heart had been overturned, and he was extremely jealous.
"I'm waiting for the students to come out. If nothing unexpected happens, I'll go back tomorrow."
"Why tomorrow? Can't you come back today?"
Was she going to go out and play with this man?
Shi Wan sensed his uneasiness and explained, "They said they wanted to take a look around Beijing. I have to wait for them."
Shen Siyan pursed his lips. Unable to find an outlet for his frustration, he could only clutch his phone tightly.
Mu Weiran watched all this speechlessly. He'd managed to persuade them not to quarantine him after much pleading. But there were still two bodyguards following him around. They even followed him to the toilet, for fear that he'd tip someone off and expose someone's identity.
Moreover, was this man really that jealous?
Wasn't it just going out with a man?
What if they were just friends?
"Shen Siyan, you stay at home obediently. I'll be back tomorrow."
"...Okay."
After hanging up the phone, Shen Siyan stared at the monitoring screen. For a moment, he even wanted to go out and stand beside her openly.
To tell everyone that she was his.
It seemed that he had to find an opportunity to make it public. Even if he had to kneel on the keyboard, he'd accept it.
After hanging up the phone, Shi Wan suddenly noticed that Nian Lin was standing too close to her. She couldn't help but take a step back.
"What are you doing?"
"You're a married woman. Don't get too close."
Nian Lin: "..."
Brat!
Not long after, everyone came out. Some were happy while others were sad. In the bustling crowd, Sang Lin spotted Shi Wan at a glance.
She excitedly ran towards her with the students from Beinan University.
"Wanwan!"
"How did it go?"
"You're amazing! Although there were no questions from the exact topics you taught us, most of the content was covered by what you told us. We don't have to worry about this at all. Now it depends on the scores from the subsequent tests."
"That's good."
Sang Lin had participated in a competition before and won first place. With this advantage, it would be easier for them to get into the research institute.
"Wanwan, are these all your students?"
Nian Lin asked.
Shi Wan nodded.
"Hello, everyone. I'm Shi Wan's friend, also like an elder brother. My name is Nian Lin."
"Nian Lin?! Can't be the Nian Lin we're thinking of, right?"
A student in the crowd covered their mouth in surprise.
Nian Lin nodded. "Most likely."
"Ah! I'm seeing a real one?!"
Nian Lin: "..."
He wasn't that dead yet, was he?
Shi Wan rubbed her forehead. Seeing more and more people looking in their direction, just as she was about to tell him to leave, the results of the competition were announced.
"Thank you all for coming. The results of the competition are out. Now, I'll announce the names of the students with the highest scores. Cha Yuan from the School of Medicine of Qingling University, Sang Lin, Zhou Qi, Shi Qing from the School of Medicine of Beinan University..."
A total of five names were read out. The research institute originally planned to recruit only four people, but one more was added later.
"Wanwan, we got in!"
Sang Lin excitedly hugged Shi Wan.
There were hundreds of people on the scene, but only five could get in. Besides medical students, there were also some people who had worked in hospitals for a long time and were very experienced.
The competition pressure for the students was extremely high.
Only one person from the hospital got in, and the rest were students.
Shi Wan curled her lips. "Congratulations. Keep up the good work."
"I will definitely!"
Once they got into the research institute, it meant they didn't have to go to school anymore and could start working directly.
Shi Qing didn't say a word, but her smugness was still palpable after her name was called.
"Since it's all over, how about I treat everyone to a meal to celebrate?"
Nian Lin smiled.
"But..."
Sang Lin looked at Shi Wan hesitantly.
"No need. You can go back first. Those who got in have to go to the research institute to handle some matters later."
"Okay then. Remember to call Grandpa, or he'll scold you next time."
"Got it."
"Wanwan, how did you know we have to go in again later?"
When the person in charge gave instructions, it was all done inside.
"I heard about it. I also wanted to get into the research institute before, but I gave up later."
She'd just founded her own research institute.
"So that's how it is."
To Shi Qing, these words meant that Shi Wan had wanted to get in but was rejected.
She boasted so much, but in the end, she still couldn't get in?
Others said how amazing Shi Wan was, but in the end, she still couldn't compare to her?
"After you come out, if you want to play, go ahead. If not, just go back."
She could tell that the students who didn't make it were in low spirits. They might not be in the mood to go sightseeing as they'd originally planned.
"Okay."
"Shi Wan, I won this time."
When she walked up to Shi Wan, Shi Qing whispered, unable to hide her smugness.
