Chapter 63 Do You Know How Many Points He Has Got?
Fang Qiu also looked at the two directors curiously.
But from the behavior of the two of them.
They seemed to take Fang Qiu’s proposal very seriously.
The two directors who were locking horns with each other finally became thirsty and remembered that there were another two men in the office.
They were too embarrassed to say anything immediately.
Qi Kaiwen was still a veteran. He said to Qiao Mu calmly as usual,
“Mr. Qiao, you take Fang Qiu away. I’m going to have a nice talk with Director Zhang.”
Then he turned to Fang Qiu and said, “Fang Qiu, I agree with your proposal. Don’t worry. You just focus on the competition.”
Fang Qiu nodded.
He followed Qiao Mu out of the office.
Out of the building of the School of Chinese Medicine, Qiao Mu patted Fang Qiu on the shoulder and encouraged him, “Come on!”
Fang Qiu nodded.
“I’m a little sorry about this today...”
Qiao Mu approached Fang Qiu, telling him the cause and effect of what happened today.
Including how the Associate Director Zhang Xinming removed him out of the list to prevent him from the competition.
Fang Qiu became more and more confused as he heard that. He frowned slightly.
As he had thought before, the Associate Director Zhang Xinming had been directed against him indeed.
“But wasn’t it the first time for us to meet each other today?
“There shouldn’t be any hatred between us.”
“Thank you, Mr. Qiao.”
Fang Qiu thanked him and then asked, “Is Director Zhang the relative of any student in our university?”
He just entered the university two weeks ago. It could only be the students who could offend Associate Director Zhang. And among the students, only two people had trouble with him.
One was Li Qingshi and another one was Gao Fei.
“If it’s one of them, it makes sense.”
“Well...”
Qiao Mu thought for a while and said uncertainly, “Director Zhang seems to be Li Qingshi’s uncle.”
Fang Qiu smiled for an instant.
He knew inwardly what was going on.
“Thank you, Mr. Qiao.”
He thanked Qiao Mu again and then went straight back to the dormitory after parting from Mr. Qiao.
As for lunch, it was okay to skip it.
It was fine for him not to eat for a week, let alone for a day.
Normally, at a fixed day every week, he didn’t eat at all, even staple food or complementary food but drank juice and sugar solutions only, which was good for health.
A lot of modern people got sick from eating.
It would better not to eat or to eat less.
In the afternoon.
The lunch break was over.
As there was no first class in the afternoon, Li Qingshi immediately searched the Internet to see the list of the Chinese Medicine Knowledge Competition of Freshmen. He couldn’t wait to see the list without Fang Qiu’s name.
He logged on the university website and entered the Academic Affairs Office online.
He selected the list file to download.
Li Qingshi opened the list with a little excitement and expectation. When Fang Qiu saw the list, the stunned and disappointed expression of him had already arisen in Li Qingshi’s mind.
Even thinking of it made Li Qingshi joyful!
But when he opened the list.
He was totally dumbfounded and in a daze!
He looked at the list in front of him in disbelief.
He thought the list could be a slap on Fang Qiu’s face, but the first name on the list was Fang Qiu!!!
“What’s going on?
“Wasn’t it said to be removed from the list?
“Yesterday, I saw Uncle personally removed Fang Qiu’s name out of the list. How come his name is still here?
“And he is the first one!
“What the hell is going on here???”
Li Qingshi looked a little flustered. He quickly took out the mobile phone and dialed his uncle’s phone number.
He now suspected that it was the staff who had made a mistake, so he must let his uncle quickly remove Fang Qiu’s name. Otherwise, it would be difficult to change a foregone conclusion if a lot of people saw that!
The telephone was connected.
“Hello? Qingshi.”
At the other end of the phone, Zhang Xinming’s voice was heard.
“Uncle!”
Li Qingshi asked hastily, “Has the list of the Knowledge Competition of Freshmen been uploaded wrongly. How come Fang Qiu’s name is still there? Did the staff make a mistake? Please quickly remove his name off!”
“Well, there’s nothing wrong with that.”
“Nothing wrong?”
Li Qingshi increased his voice suddenly.
The voice was full of disbelief.
“Hum, hold your horses.”
Zhang Xinming also felt awkward about this thing. After all, he had promised his nephew, but he failed. He could only explain, “Fang Qiu’s name wasn’t on the list that was uploaded in the morning. Later, Mr. Qiao Mu totally disagreed with it and tried his best to add Fang Qiu’s name into this list. I have no choice.”
“He’s just an ordinary teacher. How could he stop you?”
Li Qingshi immediately said with a resentful look.
To his surprise, there actually was a teacher who backed Fang Qiu up.
Moreover, he didn’t believe that an ordinary teacher dared to dispute with the Associate Director!
“And Qi Kaiwen.”
Zhang Xinming said helplessly.
Upon hearing the name.
Li Qingshi became silent immediately.
He did not expect that the Director was also Fang Qiu’s backer!
“This is troublesome.” He knew that the Director and the Associate Director hadn’t been getting well along with each other all the time.
“If that were the case, of course, I won’t just add Fang Qiu’s name.”
Speaking of this, Zhang Xinming sighed and said, “In the end, it’s because Fang Qiu himself has the strength!”
“He has the strength? You mean the aspect of his talents?”
Li Qingshi curled his lips in disdain. He admitted that Fang Qiu was really good at that.
But his talents had nothing to do with the Knowledge Competition of Freshmen!
“Not his talents but his knowledge of Chinese Medicine!”
Said Zhang Xinming.
“The knowledge of Chinese Medicine?”
Li Qingshi immediately sneered and said in more disdain, “How awesome he can be? He is only a freshman who just entered the university without any background of Chinese Medicine. He has just been reading more books at most.”
“Alas!”
Zhang Xinming sighed slightly and said, “We have all looked down upon this student!”
“Two years ago, in the Chinese Medicine Knowledge Competition of Freshmen that you took part, how many points did you get in the first round?”
“45 points! Uncle, why do you ask this?”
Li Qingshi asked curiously.
But when he said 45 points, he was quite proud inwardly.
Although this score didn’t look high, the questions of that year were too abnormal. The highest score was just 65 points. It was so excellent of him to get 45 points.
And this score was ranked ninth out of eighty-one people that year!
It was a very high rank!
Every time he talked about it, he was so proud.
“To stop Fang Qiu from getting on the list, I let Fang Qiu answer this set of questions on the scene.”
Zhang Xinming paused for a while and asked, “Guess how many points he got?”
“Twenty? Or ten?”
Li Qingshi said in a despising tone as he curled his lip.
“86.5!”
Zhang Xinming said in a low voice.
“How many?!”
Li Qingshi’s whole body shook. He stood up with a rush as if he did not hear clearly, asking loudly.
“He got 86.5 points, 21.5 points higher than the highest score of that year!”
Said Zhang Xinming, “guess how long he spent?”
“How long?”
Li Qingshi asked with a bemused expression. He still couldn’t recover from the huge shock of the 86.5 points!
“Forty-five minutes!”
“What?!”
Li Qingshi asked full of horror.
“Forty-five minutes?!
“He got 86.5 points within 45 minutes???”
“I even didn’t finish the exam with all my energy exhausted and I only got 45 points!
“It also took 60 minutes for the student who got the first.
“But Fang Qiu got 86.5 points within 45 minutes!
“How could it be possible?”
“Could it be that someone had shown him the test paper and the answers in advance?”
Asked Li Qingshi who didn’t give up.
“No.”
Zhang Xinming said as he sighed, “Before he entered the office, no one ever knew that I would take out this set of questions, so there was no possibility of seeing the questions and reciting the answers in advance.”
Li Qingshi was so disappointed.
He knew that.
“My uncle couldn’t lie to me.
“Since Uncle has set up obstacles for Fang Qiu, the exam must be invigilated by Uncle himself.
“That is to say, Fang Qiu did not cheat in the exam. Instead, he has real abilities!”
He felt helpless immediately in his heart.
“It’s OK if I’m not as good as him at the talents.
“But now, even my knowledge of Chinese Medicine that I’m proud of also can’t compare with Fang Qiu’s who just entered the university for few days!”
This almost destroyed all his confidence and pride!
“But even so, will you just leave him alone?”
Li Qingshi clenched his fist tightly, asking again,
“Of course not!”
Zhang Xinming sneered and said, “He let me lose once to Qi Kaiwen. Of course, I can’t just let it go. But just leave it for the time being because I have something more important to do. As for Fang Qiu, I’ll find some way to keep him out of the competition by then.”
Upon hearing this.
Li Qingshi’s eyes suddenly lit up.
“Right!
“What if his name keeps staying on the list?
“As long as he can’t participate in the knowledge competition or gets low points finally, it will be OK!
“Such as suffering from diarrhea...”
Thinking of this, Li Qingshi resumed his spirits and sneered.
“I haven’t lost this game yet!
“Fang Qiu, let’s go on!
“Now, it’s more about a matter of a man’s dignity than a matter of love!
“I’m the real big shot of the School of Chinese Medicine and even the University of Jiangjing Chinese Medicine!
“I am God’s child!
“The central figure among all the students!
“Of course, it will be better if Fang Qiu can be kicked out from Jiang Miaoyu’s list.”
At the thought of what happened between Fang Qiu and Jiang Miaoyu, his anger couldn’t help rising in him.
“Jiang Miaoyu is mine. No one can take her away from me!”
After hanging up the phone, Li Qingshi immediately dialed another phone number.
Gao Fei!
“Hello?”
At the other end of the phone, Gao Fei’s voice was heard.
“Gao Fei, there is something’s wrong with our plan.”
Li Qingshi said in a low voice, “This time, the quota of Fang Qiu couldn’t be removed from the list of the knowledge competition. I didn’t expect that even my uncle can’t settle it.”
So he sketched the whole story briefly.
“Oh, my god! So awesome!”
Gao Fei said surprisedly.
He was really surprised. Li Qingshi had been showing off his score of 45 points to them for two years.
“But Fang Qiu actually got 86.5 points!
“What a weirdo!”
“What are you going to do?”
Asked Gao Fei.
With his eyes flashed with a trace of fierceness, he said in a low voice, “Let’s use the previous method to give him a lesson!”
“Ha ha, we still need the previous method!”
Gao Fei laughed and said, “I’ll take care of it. You just wait for the good news!”
“OK.”
Li Qingshi smirked.
Here, in the afternoon, Fang Qiu came directly to the library after class.
As soon as Fang Qiu entered the reading room, he was a little dumbfounded.
The one sitting in the librarian’s seat was no longer the familiar figure.
Instead, it was replaced by a middle-aged man that he had never seen before.
“Hello, I’m here to return the book.”
Walking to the counter, Fang Qiu handed the books from his arms to the librarian and asked in doubt, “Where is the previous librarian?”
“He has asked for leave.”
The librarian said with a smile, “I’ll take his place for a few days.”
“OK!”
Fang Qiu nodded his head clearly, wearing a doubtful expression faintly, however.
“Why did that mysterious librarian suddenly ask for leave?
“Could he have been in any trouble?”
After returning the books, Fang Qiu walked into the library in doubt.
Without the mysterious librarian, any book that he wanted to borrow had to be found by himself.
Forty minutes later, Fang Qiu came out of the library with a stack of books before the reading room was closed.
In the evening.
Back to the dormitory, Fang Qiu continued to sit cross-legged on the bed, watching the copper coin.
After two days of practice, he had been able to control a copper coin very skillfully. But the copper coin still couldn’t go up when it arrived at a certain angle, no matter how much energy he used to give a command with his mind.
“Since it can’t go up, I’ll add one more...”
“It may help by increasing the weight.”
