Pampered Poisonous Royal Wife-Chapter 1983 - 493: The Medicine Star, Worthy of the Title!
So, An Yiqing was defeated by the heavy burden on her shoulders, and the many mundane affairs made it impossible for her to fully devote herself to the spirit of medical research that a Medical Star should have.
Everyone was discussing this result, except the people from the Medicine Sect and An Yiqing herself, who remained calm. They seemed to find it quite normal that Qin Yue had won the title of Medical Star.
Qin Yue was startled by the honor suddenly placed upon him, and his first reaction was to look at An Yiqing.
"Little Junior Sister..." He said uneasily. In his heart, Qin Yue believed the honor of Medical Star should belong to An Yiqing.
An Yiqing looked at Qin Yue and gave him a warm smile, "Third Senior Brother, congratulations."
"No, no, this award..."
"This award should belong to you." An Yiqing interrupted Qin Yue, "The Medical Star should belong to someone who dedicates their entire heart and soul to the medical field. Although my medical skills are not bad, I cannot be as selfless as Third Senior Brother. You are a pure healer, and this award is well-deserved for you, Third Senior Brother."
"Your little junior sister is right." Ye Chenghong chimed in after An Yiqing, "This girl has too many burdens on her shoulders, and too many honors too. You should help her share some of them. The future of the Medical Star is limitless, and it’s inevitable to travel around the world for research. Xiao Yue, do you think your little junior sister’s lazy nature is really suitable for this honor?"
Qin Yue pursed his lips, understanding everything Ye Chenghong said. An Yiqing had always been the one to step forward for Medicine Sect matters, but when it came to making public appearances, she would shy away. Even as an adult, with the big group Xuanjin Yulong, she was content being the hands-off owner. If she had to travel the world doing research and speeches, it would be worse than killing her.
Qin Yue was happy to shield An Yiqing from these troubles, but he still felt that the title of Medical Star should have belonged to An Yiqing.
At this moment, the representative of the judges called for the Medical Star to come on stage to accept the award and give a speech. Encouraged by the people from the Medicine Sect and An Yiqing’s gaze, Qin Yue took a deep breath and walked onto the stage.
After accepting the trophy and certificate handed over by the organizer, Qin Yue thanked them politely and then stood silently in front of the microphone.
The venue was quiet, and everyone was waiting for the new Medical Star to give his speech.
"Thank you all for recognizing me. Becoming the Medical Star was something I never expected."
In the quiet hall, Qin Yue began to speak slowly, his pleasant voice spreading through the microphone all over the venue, reaching around the world.
"I am an orphan. My parents died in a car accident when I was just born, and it was my master who took me from the orphanage. Later, I studied medical arts with other senior brothers in the Medicine Sect. In the Medicine Sect, no one is incompetent; everyone has their strengths. My first senior brother, Nie Yuan, is the best in alchemy. My second senior brother, Lei Yu, is a renowned swift blade in the medical world. In everyone’s eyes, I am the one who speaks the least and loves to study medical arts alone the most. I always thought that no one’s dedication to medical arts could surpass mine until I was eleven, and the Sect Leader Uncle brought back my little junior sister An Yiqing."
"From then on, I realized that there was a little girl in this world who loved medical arts more than us senior brothers. She spent several hours every day reading medical books and continued this routine from childhood to adulthood. Those medical books were marked with her scribbles, worn out from frequent reading, yet she persisted. From the time she could walk, she practiced needlework and swordsmanship every day, day after day. I still remember the first time I caught her practicing suturing alone; she did it for five hours straight without lifting her head. When she finished, I saw her hands were trembling. I asked her why she was exhausting herself like this and what her logic was. Do you know what she said?"
Qin Yue smiled, his eyes carrying a memory of the past.
"She said, if I practice one more hour now, maybe I can save one more person in the future. Third Senior Brother, I never had great ambitions from a young age, nor did I want to be a Guanyin Bodhisattva who saves the dying and heals the wounded. But since my master brought me to the Medicine Sect, I must become a qualified healer. I am not some saintly white lotus, but I must not tarnish the honor of a healer’s name. She was only nine when she said this. Later, we grew up year by year, becoming adults. Many of the Medicine Sect’s burdens fell on her shoulders as the back-up Sect Leader. She no longer had much time to do research or read medical books. She was busy every day helping us senior brothers, handling the income of the Medicine Sect, and managing social relationships, bearing much of the load from the Sect Leader Uncle. I still remember last year, seeing her reading a medical book while eating. I joked, busy enough to only have time to read while eating, do you regret agreeing to take on the burden of the Medicine Sect? But the little girl just rolled her eyes and said, what’s there to regret? If I take on the burden, you all have more time to study medical arts. At that time, I almost cried in front of my little junior sister."
In the competition seats, the eyes of everyone from the Medicine Sect began to turn red, unable to hold back tears even in their thirties. Qin Yue’s words touched the softest part of their hearts. Over the years, An Yiqing had been running around, taking over half of the Medicine Sect’s affairs from Ye Chenghong. She seemed busy every day with Xuanjin Yulong and the An Family, but only they knew that the Medicine Sect’s better life, increasing prestige, and their ability to learn more sophisticated medical arts had an inseparable connection with An Yiqing.
Even the four Great Elders had said that having An Yiqing in the Medicine Sect was like having a treasure chest.
No one is born to be a treasure chest!
Feeling the gratitude in the eyes of her senior brothers, the corners of An Yiqing’s mouth curved into a warm smile. She felt that everything she had done was worth it!
Qin Yue continued his speech.
"The reason I could receive the title of Medical Star today is that my little junior sister An Yiqing created a comfortable research environment for me. Actually, what I want to say is that the true Medical Star is undoubtedly An Yiqing! "
