Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

This time, the Old Master of the Mu family came to Jingcheng to look for the Miracle Doctor Jiu Yao. The Old Master of the Qiao family, who had passed away, was a comrade of Old Master Mu, This is why Old Master Mu had the privilege of staying at the Qiao family’s residence.

“Master Mu, I heard that you fainted on your way here. Are you feeling better now?” Qiao’s mother asked.

“I’ve fully recovered,” replied Old Master Mu. Thinking of Shen Jing, he added, “I was fortunate to encounter a young divine doctor on the street near Jingcheng University. She administered a few treatments, and I feel much healthier than before.”

The street near Jingcheng University? Qiao Boyue subconsciously thought of Shen Jing, who had also been to the streets nearby. But in the next moment, she felt her own thoughts were absurd. What does Shen Jing know about medical skills?

Qiao’s mother was also surprised and inquired, “There’s someone with such exceptional medical skills at Jingcheng University? I wonder what her name is. My mother hasn’t been feeling well lately, and I was thinking of finding a doctor for her.”

“Yes, indeed. The person addressed as a divine doctor by Grandpa Mu must be incredibly talented,” Qiao Boyue said with admiration. She had always wanted to study medicine, but her grades did not allow her to enter the medical department.

“She is indeed very skilled,” Old Master Mu smiled. However, he didn’t mention Shen Jing’s name. The girl’s medical skills were astonishing, and revealing her identity might invite unnecessary trouble. He had to find time to personally express his gratitude at Jingcheng University.

Seeing that Old Master didn’t want to disclose the identity of the divine physician, Qiao’s mother wisely refrained from further inquiries. She instructed Qiao Boyue to take Old Master Mu to his room to rest.

Qiao Boyue kept her mother’s teachings in mind. She had been deliberately trying to please Old Master Mu.She stayed by his side throughout the afternoon. Having lived for half a lifetime, Old Master Mu knew exactly what Qiao Boyue was thinking. Being straightforward, he said, “You don’t have to try so hard to please me. At your age, focusing on your own affairs is more important than anything else.”

Qiao Boyue felt embarrassed by Old Master Mu’s words and didn’t dare to continue following him. At the same time, she was curious why there had been no news from Zhang Lili for such a long time. After some thought, she took out her phone intending to call Zhang Lili. However, when she turned on her phone, she saw a local news report: ” A large number of police officers swarmed into the Zhang family. What had the Zhang family done?”

Qiao Boyue’s grip tightened on the phone.

The next day, Shen Jing arrived at school, and the students in Class A were discussing Zhang Lili’s situation. Although the Zhang family wasn’t a particularly wealthy family, they were still a prestigious family in Jingcheng. The fact that so many police officers had surrounded their residence had become a hot topic in the media.

“Do you think this has something to do with Shen Jing?” someone wondered.

“Zhang Lili was just expelled from school, and now her family is in trouble. How coincidental can it be? It must be Shen Jing’s doing.”

“But where did Shen Jing get such great abilities? I find it highly unlikely. Hey, hey, hey, stop talking. Shen Jing is here.”

As soon as those words were spoken, the lively discussions among the classmates instantly died down. Shen Jing walked into the classroom, sat down at her desk without looking around, and appeared indifferent.

Qiao Boyue glanced at Shen Jing, her eyes filled with deep contemplation. She hadn’t expected that in the end, Shen Jing would be fine, and it was Zhang Lili who ended up at the police station.

“Before we start the class, let me say a few words,” the counselor entered the classroom and stood at the podium. “The school’s annual art festival is approaching, and each student is required to participate in a project. Let’s see what everyone is planning to showcase.”

Art festival… Shen Jing rubbed her temples, wondering why the school had to organize such a boring event.

“Qiao Boyue, what are you planning to present?” someone curiously asked Qiao Boyue.

“Chinese art, I guess,” Qiao Boyue replied.

Upon hearing this, the counselor smiled and said, “Chinese art is excellent. During this art festival, Chairman Qin from the Chinese Art Association and a professor from Huacheng University will also be present. Qiao Boyue, your talent in Chinese painting is impressive. Maybe Chairman Qin will take a fancy to you.”

Upon hearing the mention of Chairman Qin, Shen Jing, who had been troubled about what project to choose, immediately made up her mind. She would simply choose traditional Chinese painting, or else the old man would definitely make a fuss.

After hearing the counselor’s words, Qiao Boyue smiled confidently. She looked at the other projects, such as calligraphy and playing musical instruments, realizing that she wasn’t particularly skilled in those areas. However, in the field of traditional Chinese painting, even students from the College of Fine Arts are no match for her. Her dream was to join the Chinese Painting Association!
