Chapter 759 Out of Our League

Fu Qingli’s request took Shen Xi by surprise, but it was nothing to be hesitant about. She agreed to it. “Sure.”

He said, “Once you’re done with your term exams, I’ll get Xuan to take you to medical events so you can get to know the people.” Shen Xi replied, “Alright.”

Fu Qingli then hung up the call.

Following Shen Xi’s return, Fu Qingxuan looked puzzled. “What did Qingli say to you?”

What was with the secrecy as if he would eavesdrop? There must be something going on between Xixi and Qingli, and they were leaving him out of it.

The phone rang soon after. It was Fu Qingli telling him to bring Shen Xi to socialize after her exams were over.

If Li Yuan was not around, Fu Qingxuan would be spinning around in joy. To hang out with his sister was all he ever wanted. It was right up his alley. Qingli did love him.

Fu Qingli told him to show Shen Xi around but said nothing about Shen Xin being Dr. Jiu Zhou.

Time flew by.

Shen Xi finally endured through the exam week by mid-January and welcomed the holidays.

Fu Qingxuan had been out and about China’s medical scene for his secondary laboratory. He could be seen in every medical conference, more than he ever participated in the last one and half years.

Since the start of the holidays, Shen Xi was running around with Fu Qingxuan as his assistant too. The pair were joined by the hip.

Everybody knew who Shen Xi was. She was Fu Qingxuan’s sister and a medical student at Capital University. She was one of them.

Nevertheless, many medical professionals could not care less about her. In fact, they looked down on her, believing that she only had access to these symposiums due to her connections with Fu Qingxuan. A regular medical student would not have a chance to have a social exchange with leading medical personnel.

That Sunday, there was a medical exchange forum exclusive to only the best of the best in the country. The participants were either prestigious members of the medical community and doctors who won many international awards, or gifted medical scientists like Fu Qingxuan.

On site, everyone was enthusiastically chatting about one thing, and it was not medically related for a change. Instead, it was about the mysterious Dr. Jiu Zhou.

The conference’s committee managed to invite the mysterious Dr. Jiu Zhou. This was the person everyone named the miracle doctor in China. All attendees were looking forward to seeing his real face.

The appearance of Shen Xi and Fu Qingxuan halted the bustling scene. Everybody looked toward them, specifically at Shen Xi.

Many people in the medical world were disgruntled about Fu Qingxuan abusing his position and taking Shen Xi everywhere. Even if he came from a powerful family or was a young genius, he had no right to preferential treatment.

The medical big shots had their own assistants and students too. No matter how wrapped up they were in their studies without a care for anything else, they were concerned about everything related to their personal gains.

For example, companions were not allowed in many confidential academic exchanges. It was out of the question for staff and those who wanted to use connections to gain entry.

However, it was a different story with Fu Qingxuan. It did not matter how tight the access was, he always had a way to bring Shen Xi along. Of course, it stirred discontent and outrage among the rest.

The conference today was an SSS-class private symposium. Apart from those invited, the rest were strictly not allowed entry.

Shen Xi’s presence dropped a huge bombshell at the venue. It opened the floodgates to an outburst of disgruntlement.

“Dr. Fu, it’s inappropriate for you to bring your sister here today.” Yao Lan could not take it anymore. Her pet peeve was people like Shen Xi who pulled strings and connections to get experience.

Why should those who worked hard not have the chance to participate in this sort of academic exchange while half-hearted ones without the right attitude to learn got all the opportunities in the world?

It was all because she had her good brother and a backer like the Fu family. However, it was unfair toward the people who actually wanted to learn something.

The crowd turned to Yao Lan, seeing eye to eye with her statement while feeling impressed by her. As expected from a genius like Fu Qingxuan. Her words carried weight.

Coming from a family of doctors, Yao Lan made a name for herself from a young age as a genius in the medical world. She was accepted into China Medical School at the age of 12 and completed her Master’s by the age of fifteen.

At the same time, she was a proud student of Lu Kunting, the dean of China Medical School and president of the China TCM Society. Yao Lan just hit eighteen this year, just like Shen Xi.

Despite being peers, Yao Lan was a renowned physician at the top of the medical field while Shen Xi was only a girl tagging along with her brother.

With Yao Lan spearheading the discussion, more began to jump on the bandwagon. A person like Shen Xi had no right to participate in this conference.

“The Fu family sure is a real treat. They sure have China in the palm of their hands. They can stuff any riffraff into a high-security conference.”

“Don’t say that, Dr. Chen. All somebody needs are the Fu family and Dr. Fu. We civilians can’t compete. They’re out of our league.”

Filled with bitterness, the young and hot-blooded threw touches of sarcasm.

“Quit it. Shen Xi, do you have an invitation? Are you allowed to join the event?”

“Young lady, you should know your place. We can turn a blind eye to you following your brother around for the past few days. We’ll take it that you’re eager to learn, but not this time. This conference is our nation’s top secret. Don’t humiliate yourself and leave. Don’t make us kick up a fuss. It won’t be good for anyone by then.”

“Leave right now and we won’t make things difficult for you.” The older generation lectured her as an elder.

Fu Qingxuan was caught in a daze by the public attack. He had not seen any invitation, nor was he aware of how classified the conference was. Looking at the angry mob, Fu Qingxuan stood in front of Shen Xi. “Take your grievance out on me. I was the one who brought her in.”
