Chapter 429: Paralyzed Himself With Three Stitches

However, those familiar with him could tell that he was somewhat inexplicably nervous; everyone didn’t understand what he was nervous about.
Everyone present had witnessed Tang Ming’s strictness, so seeing him make such an effort to appear gentle was the first time for Tang Ming and his group.
“Did you see that? Professor Tang actually smiled! We’ve been sitting here for over an hour, and he always had an icy expression. He even made a little girl cry just now, but now he’s being so friendly to Wen Xin. Is this also a privilege of being the first?”
“You’re saying this. A perfect score for the independent enrollment has appeared for the first time. Even if it’s not Professor Tang, even the president of Beijing University must treat her with respect. That’s what a big shot is, a real big shot!”
The group was murmuring about Tang Ming’s attitude towards Wen Xin. The people in the professors’ seats also focused their gaze on Tang Ming, not knowing how the usually stern Tang Ming had become like this.
“Yes, I applied for a major in physics.” Wen Xin’s voice was clear and cold again. Hearing this, everyone present felt a strong sense of oppression. They didn’t know what kind of ability could cultivate such a character in her, so unruly yet unyielding.
“Then, congratulations on becoming a member of our Beijing University’s physics department.”
Tang Ming stood up excitedly from his seat and holding the admission letter in his hand, ran to Wen Xin’s side, offering the admission letter with both hands.
Seeing Tang Ming’s exaggerated actions, Wen Xin’s eyes couldn’t help but twitch. Wasn’t this too obvious? Would it not cause trouble for her in the future?
“Professor Tang, do I need to do an experimental assessment?”
“No need, no need. You actively requested to do the experiment, which proves that you must have a certain foundation. I believe you can do it! This is your admission letter. Remember to report to the school on September 1st next year. Beijing University’s physics department welcomes you.”
Wen Xin didn’t expect the second round to be so simple. It was a pity that she had wasted two hours studying specifically for it…
Seeing Wen Xin’s somewhat unsatisfied expression, Tang Ming unconsciously wiped his forehead.
Wen Xin noticed his actions. She could now confirm one thing: Tang Ming’s tendency to sweat wasn’t due to his physical condition but his psychological state. It was because he was nervous seeing her.
Wen Xin took the admission letter from Tang Ming’s hand and smiled gently, “I will report on time.”
Sitting in the professor’s seat, Sun Miao looked at Wen Xin with a cold gaze. She didn’t expect Wen Xin to be the top scorer in the initial exam for independent enrollment. With her remarkable medical skills, she unexpectedly chose the physics department instead.
Just as Wen Xin was preparing to leave, Du Luqing hurriedly ran into the venue from outside.
“Wen Xin, have you finished your second round? I need your help with something.”
Although the students and parents present might not know Wen Xin, all the professors did, especially Tang Ming. When he saw Du Luqing hastily come in, he thought Du Luqing was there to snatch his student from him.
“Du Luqing, let me tell you, Little Wen… Student Wen has already received the admission letter from our physics department. Your medical school has no chance!”
Seeing Tang Ming protect Wen Xin behind him like a mother hen guarding her chicks, Du Luqing was speechless. He gently nudged Tang Ming.
“Don’t worry, our medical school isn’t worthy of Wen Xin’s level. We want Wen
Xin to help us. During the acupuncture exam in the Traditional Chinese Medicine Department just now, a student paralyzed himself with just three needles.”
After Du Luqing finished speaking, the quiet auditorium burst into laughter. Who would have thought that a top student from Beijing University’s medical school’s Traditional Chinese Medicine department would paralyze himself with just three needles? This was quite a strange occurrence, wasn’t it?
“I’ve already arranged for someone to invite my master, but my master’s clinic is too crowded and doesn’t have time to come. The old professors in the Traditional Chinese Medicine Department also dare not act lightly. I thought that Wen Xin would be participating in the second round today. She will definitely be able to do it.”
“If you’ve given out the admission letter, let her come with me. The situation is urgent; saving lives is paramount!”
When the students, parents, and professors present heard Du Luqing’s words, they all stopped laughing. Everyone looked at Wen Xin with some shock. So, this pretty girl also had medical skills?
“Hey, Qitao, last time you said Wen Xin pinned you down with acupuncture.
Were you joking?”
Qitao turned his head and glanced coldly at the students beside him. After a few minutes of silence, he nodded seriously.
“Yes, she pinned me down with just one needle. Since that day, I knew she was extraordinary…”
Thinking about the irrational things he had done, Qitao felt ashamed. So, even if he liked Wen Xin, he never appeared in front of her. He felt unworthy.
The professors from various departments of the medical school all stood up after hearing Du Luqing’s words, wanting to follow him to see the excitement. However, Du Luqing stopped them with a single sentence.
“Focus on your enrollment. What’s there to see about such an embarrassing matter? Wen Xin, can we leave now?”
Du Luqing dared not look at the students and parents sitting opposite them. He had a premonition that after news of this incident spread, the enrollment rate of Beijing University’s medical school would be unexpectedly low.
“Let’s go and see what’s going on.” Wen Xin responded lightly to Du Luqing, then glanced at the seated Mu Chengxi. She nodded gently at him before following Du Luqing out of the auditorium.
On the way to the graduate entrance examination for the Department of Traditional Chinese Medicine, Du Luqing briefly explained the situation of the students to Wen Xin. Unable to contain herself, Wen Xin chuckled softly. Mu Chengxi, who was beside her, spoke indifferently.
“If you say that his medical skills are bad, then he managed to treat himself with three needles. If you say that his medical skills are good, then he can’t treat his own difficult illness. He’s really a talent!”
“Young Marshal Mu, don’t gloat over our misfortune. Our medical school has lost a lot of face this time. I’m afraid we won’t be able to recruit anyone!”
Du Luqing’s voice was somewhat low. He and Mu Chengxi had met before, so he naturally knew Mu Chengxi’s identity, but he didn’t feel the same awe towards Mu Chengxi as others did.
Mu Chengxi looked at Du Luqing. He understood the principle of not kicking someone when they’re down, so he simply smiled faintly and didn’t speak any further.
When Wen Xin and Du Luqing entered the graduate examination room, they saw a group of senior professors surrounding a young man seated in a chair. Seeing the complex expressions on the young man’s face, Wen Xin couldn’t help but stifle a laugh behind Mu Chengxi. This was the first time she had encountered such a situation.
“Alright, stop laughing. Haven’t you seen how anxious those old professors are?”
Du Luqing looked at Wen Xin, who was already doubled over in laughter. He truly didn’t find the situation amusing.. If they couldn’t save him, wouldn’t it be a waste of a talented student?
