Rebirth: My Dear Little Wife Is So Scheming-Chapter 774: Mission

"That... that..."

Bai Xiao backed away.

Ma Yao grabbed her in one swoop, plonked her on the bed, and the three of them circled around her with a predatory gaze.

This spelled out a severe punishment coming her way.

"Where do you think you’re hiding?"

Ma Yao’s grip was so strong, it was as if she was handling a small pet, Bai Xiao couldn’t help but mock herself helplessly.

"I..."

"What about you? Fess up, or you’ll face the big punishment!"

Ma Yao suppressed her with force, while Lin Xiang and He Juan revealed their ferocious, sinister claws.

Bai Xiao obediently recounted what had happened! Even though she wasn’t eloquent, she tried her best to avoid exaggeration, but alas, she couldn’t stand against the trio’s rich imagination. They embellished the story in their minds with all the scenes.

So the three of them buzzed around her, like they had spotted delicious beef jerky, drooling over it, sending chills down her spine.

"What do you guys want to do?"

"We just want to take a good look at what the Medical College’s star of tomorrow looks like?"

"How about you give me an autograph? Who knows, it might be a boasting asset for me in the future."

"A group photo is better, that’s where the real value is! In the future, I’ll brag that I graduated from the same Medical College as the famous Traditional Chinese Medicine acupuncture specialist Bai Xiao. We lived in the same dormitory and even ate from the same pot."

Before the three could pounce on her, Bai Xiao timely retreated to the doorway.

"I’m going to eat now, bye..."

She quickly slipped away.

It would have been bad news if they had surrounded her.

In the following days, Bai Xiao became the new newsmaker of the Medical College. Who else could leave the Bull Demon King speechless, eagerly crying and begging to be taken on as a disciple? She couldn’t be just anybody, could she?

Bai Xiao’s desire to stay low-key was thoroughly dashed.

After finishing today’s classes, Bai Xiao hadn’t even left the classroom when her teacher, Director Jia from the Department of Traditional Chinese Medicine—a sixty-year-old lady who had actually retired, but was re-employed by the university for research purposes, serving as a visiting professor in name—still did the work of a real professor.

Of course, Director Jia was a very conscientious teacher. These past few days, under Director Jia’s recommendation, Bai Xiao truly started to systematically learn the basics of Traditional Chinese Medicine. After a deep conversation with Director Jia, the director also came to feel great pity for this student.

She had skill! She really did. On her first try at pulse diagnosis, her technique wasn’t precise, she was all over the place, and she couldn’t even clearly describe the various pulse conditions, yet she unhesitatingly identified the director’s high blood pressure, diabetes, and migraine issues—exactly matching her actual conditions.

However, her foundation was too weak. Apart from her unrivaled talent in acupuncture, she was frankly useless in all other aspects.

"Xiaobai, tomorrow the college needs to pull together a team to welcome the visiting foreign Head of State. Our department has selected you, Wu Sanduo, and Xun Mo—three people in total. Other departments will probably send around twenty people altogether. You guys need to be at the guidance office entrance at eight o’clock tomorrow morning, ready to go," Director Jia instructed her, trusting Bai Xiao with the task. She believed this child was dependable.

Bai Xiao nodded, not expecting the Medical College to have this kind of foreign affairs reception duty. It was just holding a big banner, clutching flowers, and putting on an idiotic welcoming smile, not unlike babysitting. freeweɓnovel.cøm

But it was a task from the leaders! There was no way they could skip it.

Bai Xiao hurried off, not wanting to spend any more time in the classroom! The next class was the Bull Demon King’s, and nowadays, whenever he saw her, he would call her "teacher, teacher" non-stop. It had almost become a scenery of the college.
