Chapter 922: Studying Skeletons
Helplessly, Liu Mang had to brace himself and walk to the front of the H Medicine teaching team.
He was also wearing a black tailcoat, looking quite dog-like.
As the saying goes, there’s no harm without comparison.
Next to Liu Mang in Waihai City stood Hua Dongxu, the handsome man from Xiaocheng, who was simply the epitome of the tall, rich, and handsome... As for Liu Mang, naturally he was short, fat, and awkward. In comparison, Hua Dongxu’s image was magnified.
Zhao Xuefeng and Liu Mang, the two new and old deans, shook hands, a touch and then separated.
At this moment, even if Liu Mang didn’t look up, he knew many people were pointing at him.
Previously, when his teaching at Xiaocheng was exposed, he received a lot of criticism.
He couldn’t refute them; indeed, he had done things that let down ancient medicine.
"How have things been, Liu Mang?" Zhao Xuefeng laughed, "I heard you’re doing quite well in Xiaocheng. Becoming a teacher at Xiaocheng Medical College isn’t something just anyone can achieve; you must be quite capable."
Liu Mang, after crawling and rolling in society for decades, certainly knew Zhao Xuefeng was mocking him.
But what could he say?
Liu Mang had no choice but to reply reluctantly, "It’s alright, just making a living."
"Hiss~"
As soon as he finished speaking, the students around him let out long sighs.
Besides the last time competing with Lin Tian at the city hospital, Liu Mang had always had a good image in public. It was his first time being sighed at like this, and his face instantly turned red, feeling guilty.
He looked at his former colleagues with embarrassment and asked, "Has everyone been doing well lately?"
"Hmm..."
"Good..."
Only a few lukewarm responses came, while nearly half the people ignored him as if Liu Mang was invisible.
Liu Mang’s face reddened further; he felt even breathing was difficult at that moment.
"Hiss~"
Again, a wave of sighs arose from the crowd.
The surrounding students seemed addicted to despising him, almost glaring at him.
Zhao Xuefeng laughed, "I heard, Liu Mang, recently in Xiaocheng, you said ancient medicine belonged to Xiaocheng?"
Upon hearing this question, Liu Mang started sweating.
Because he felt the surrounding gazes were like sharp swords, eager to pierce through him.
"No, no, I just said ancient medicine and H Medicine have similarities, misunderstood by some with intentions. Actually, I’m quite innocent," Liu Mang explained anxiously.
He was frustrated; when Xiaocheng Medical College’s dean sent him here, he should’ve refused.
Why come here? It’s like coming to invite trouble!
Then Hua Dongxu stepped forward to a position even ahead of Liu Mang, saying, "The weather outside is cold; why don’t we find a place to talk?"
The main purpose of these words was to help Liu Mang out of the predicament. After all, Liu Mang is now part of Xiaocheng Medical College, and the sight earlier was unbearable.
"Alright, let’s go inside to talk," Zhao Xuefeng nodded, chatting at the door wasn’t very polite.
Suddenly, Hua Dongxu said, "Wait a minute."
Zhao Xuefeng paused and looked back at Hua Dongxu.
Hua Dongxu walked into the crowd of students with a very warm smile on his face.
Why warm?
Because many girls felt their hearts melting seeing that smile.
Many believed those long, expressive eyes were looking at them.
Some girls blushed, some had racing hearts, others bowed their heads, and some thought about how to approach him next.
In front of Hua Dongxu was a girl with a lovely appearance, fair skin, and a tall figure. But her expression and eyes were calm, watching the Xiaocheng handsome man walk towards her without a ripple.
"Hi, it’s been six years since we’ve seen each other?" Hua Dongxu smiled at the girl.
Crack...
Countless girls seemed to hear something shattering inside them; why wasn’t it them he approached?
Yet they had to admit, that girl truly was beautiful. Why wasn’t she on the goddess list?
Soon, someone realized it was Mr. Zhao’s granddaughter, Zhao Qingtang, who had recently spoken at the medical summit.
She was truly stunning!
Eh, the person beside her also looked familiar, was that... Lin Tian! When did he return to school? Why wasn’t there any news?!
Instantly, whispers arose around them, focusing on Lin Tian, who had almost disappeared from school after becoming famous.
Almost immediately, Lin Tian felt countless fervent gazes shift from Hua Dongxu to him, especially from girls who seemed eager to devour him completely.
As for the Xiaocheng handsome man Hua Dongxu... he seemed, no, he was already neglected.
"Seems so." Zhao Qingtang nodded, "Actually, I can’t remember clearly."
"Can’t remember how long it’s been or can’t remember me?"
Zhao Qingtang didn’t hesitate, "Both, I suppose."
"Such a heartbreaking answer." Hua Dongxu forced a smile, then asked, "May I invite you to dinner tonight?"
"Wow~"
A round of gasps arose; this was a public invitation!
If Hua Dongxu were from Celestial Dragon Continent, perhaps students would cheer, but unfortunately, he was an opponent of Celestial Dragon Continent.
How could our goddess date him?
Before Zhao Qingtang could speak, Lin Tian replied for her, "No, she will be going home tonight to research skeletons. She has to write an article about it."
After speaking, he looked at Zhao Qingtang and asked, "Isn’t that right?"
"Pfft..." Zhao Qingtang couldn’t help but laugh. This guy was too mischievous, but to support him, Zhao Qingtang nodded repeatedly, as if pecking like a chick.
Refusing a date for a skeleton could be the most embarrassing refusal ever, right?
The surrounding people laughed; Lin Tian was truly amusing.
The teachers and students of Xiaocheng Medical College wanted to laugh but held it back.
Hua Dongxu’s face turned beet red, what kind of ridiculous reason was that? Obviously made up! But Zhao Qingtang nodded along, leaving Hua Dongxu helpless.
Couldn’t you have simply said you were busy?
Researching skeletons?
How embarrassing!
Hua Dongxu shifted his gaze to Lin Tian, his facial muscles twitching twice with anger, increasing his resentment furiously!
