Chapter 1096 - Jiang Mengjie, Goddess of Chinese Medicine!

“Haha.”

Li Huawen smiled and said, “In my opinion, you have no other shortcomings except being kind.”

“Director Li, you think too highly of me.”

Fang Qiu gave a wry smile and added, “Let’s get down to business. Why don’t you just tell me what I can do for you? I’m a little overwhelmed by your compliment!”

“As you wish.”

Li Huawen laughed and continued, “I’ll get straight to the point. Our fourth episode has been shot. Next, we’re going to record the fifth episode of the show. You showed your face in the first episode, and the fifth episode will be the middle part of the whole show. Since you’ve decided to play in the first and the last episodes, why don’t you take some time to participate in the recording of the fifth episode?”

“I’m sorry, Director Li.”

Hearing this, Fang Qiu immediately smiled bitterly and explained, “As you know, I went to see patients right after I came back from work. Although I don’t know what happened on the Internet, it’s true that I’m going to Africo to treat malaria, and I have other things to do recently, so…”

“Alas.”

Li Huawen sighed gently and said, “I knew you’d say that. I won’t press you since you have no time. But that old classmate of yours is really impressive. Her performance in this season is just like yours in the previous season. I think she could be a hit like you!”

“Oh?”

Fang Qiu was surprised.

“Well, I’m still busy here, so I won’t tell you the details. You can check it out online,” said Li Huawen.

“Okay.”

Fang Qiu nodded and hung up the phone.

Then, he checked the second season of the Young Chinese Medicine Doctor online with his phone.

He was surprised to find that the season’s ratings had stayed above 4 since the first episode. And, compared to the other rival shows, it was even more amazing, leaving all the other shows far behind.

The ratings report was mind-boggling compared with those of the other shows, although it was not as impressive as that of the first season in which Fang Qiu acted.

After browsing the ratings, Fang Qiu clicked open a search engine and continued to search for topics related to the second season of the Young Chinese Medicine Doctor.

To his surprise, he immediately found a lot of interesting topics.

“Jiang Mengjie, the goddess of Chinese Medicine!”

“Jiang Mengjie, the dark horse and knockout of the Chinese Medicine field, as well as the new national goddess!”

“Jiang Mengjie, the frequent owner of the first place, ranked No. 1 for three consecutive episodes!”

“Jiang Mengjie, good-looking!”

All kinds of topics about Jiang Mengjie were frequently searched.

“Good job.”

Seeing these hot topics, Fang Qiu smiled.

Then, on a hot topic, he saw the link to Jiang Mengjie’s Weibo account. When he clicked on it, he was immediately stunned.

He had followed this Weibo account early on. After all, they were old classmates and good friends.

However, in the past, Jiang Mengjie only had a few hundred followers, which were all her admirers at school. But now, she had more than five million followers!

Fang Qiu took another look and found that almost every post of hers had many comments and reposts.

When he clicked on the comments section of the first post to promote the Young Chinese Medicine Doctor, he was stunned again.

The comments section was flooded with similar remarks. For example, “Honey!”

“Honey, look at me!”

“Honey, I want to be your first wife.”

“I’ve waited so long. Why haven’t you come yet, honey?”

Fang Qiu was dumbfounded by these comments.

Most importantly, with a glance, he found that most of the followers were female. On the first page of the comments section, there were only two males.

He was amused.

Then he went on browsing. The more he read, the more amused he became!

When he turned to the third page, a picture immediately caught his attention because the surroundings were so familiar to him.

That was the gate of the high school where he and Jiang Mengjie had studied!

In the picture, there was a banner hanging on the gate!

It read, “After our alumnus, Fang Qiu, won the championship of the Young Chinese Medicine Doctor, our alumna, Jiang Mengjie, won first place in the second season of the Young Chinese Medicine Doctor in three successive episodes. Congratulations to her!”

Fang Qiu knew that the fifth episode was about to be shot and that the fourth must already be in post-production. At present, the audience could only watch the first three episodes of the show.

Jiang Mengjie gained so much popularity after only three episodes. Fang Qiu had to admit that the girl who ranked first in high school was still as charming as she used to be!

“There are seven or eight more episodes to shoot. She has now become a hit. She’ll surely be as popular as I am when the show is over.”

Fang Qiu was happy for Jiang Mengjie from the bottom of his heart.

He knew that she deserved it!

After turning a few more pages, he found a topic titled “Goddess Jiang Mengjie” on Weibo and clicked on it. In addition to a variety of admirers, he also saw a lot of reports and interviews. He even caught sight of a familiar face in one of the interview videos.

It was his class teacher!

He clicked on the video.

“Jiang Mengjie is the best student I’ve ever taught. She used to study in my class with Fang Qiu. She won first place and Fang Qiu won second place every year. They helped each other in study and learned from each other’s strengths to offset their weaknesses. They really are the best students I’ve ever taught in my life.”

The class teacher showered them with praises.

After that, under the guidance of the reporter, the class teacher continued to praise Jiang Mengjie and Fang Qiu from all aspects in the form of answering questions. The reporter was rendered speechless, but the class teacher kept singing their praises.

Fang Qiu’s smile grew bigger.

He couldn’t help thinking of the days when he was in high school. At that time, he thought that he was a monster and was afraid of being seen through, so he suppressed all his abilities and didn’t dare to use them at all.

In the blink of an eye, two years had passed.

He stopped hiding his abilities, came into contact with a wider world, and witnessed countless wars and massacres. He missed the innocence and purity he had when he was in high school very much.

However, there was no going back.

Fang Qiu continued to browse.

Soon, he saw a video related to his class teacher.

This time, it was no longer an interview, but an award ceremony.

A leader of the Ministry of Education personally granted the honor of “provincial-level prominent class teacher” to Fang Qiu’s class teacher. His class teacher was particularly excited and happy. He thanked the leader, the school, and his students.

Fang Qiu closed the webpage after watching it.

Then he quickly sent a text message to his class teacher.

“Congratulations on getting the honor granted by the leader of the Ministry of Education. I’m very happy for you and especially thank you for your hard work in teaching us. Without you, we wouldn’t have become who we are now. Thank you.”

Then he immediately found Jiang Mengjie’s phone number and edited another text message. “I saw a lot of topics related to you on the Internet after I finished my work. I found that you performed well on the show. You won first place three times. You become a hit like me and get a large number of female followers. Don’t slack off. Good luck!”

When he finished sending the text message, his class teacher texted him back, thanking him for his congratulations and hoping that he could visit the school whenever he had time.

Fang Qiu replied that he would definitely go when he had time.

Soon, he received Jiang Mengjie’s reply.

“Remember what I said before? Just you wait. I will definitely surpass you!”

Seeing this message, Fang Qiu couldn’t help laughing. He replied with a smile, “Then you have no hope in your life.”

“Hmph.”

Jiang Mengjie replied with a “squinting” emoji.

“Well…”

Putting away his mobile phone, Fang Qiu walked out of the office, exhaled slowly, and murmured, “Everything is developing normally.

“However, according to the time, there are only one and a half months left until my one-year appointment with the president of Comores. If I continue to delay, I fear that I will exceed the time limit.”

At this point, Fang Qiu raised his eyebrows slightly.

Whether it was for the local patients or Jiang Miaoyu, he had to keep his appointment!

“Before visiting Comores, I have to go back to the cultivation base first.”

Fang Qiu didn’t hesitate at all. The moment he thought of it, he booked a ticket and flew back to Beijiang.

Although the dendrobe base in Nanjiang had been built, there weren’t any tools he needed here, so he had to go back to Beijiang because there was a herb room that had been built long ago with enough medicinal materials.

Yes, he was going to process medicine.

When he promised the president of Comores that he would help cure malaria, he thought of some treatments.

During this period, although he had not gone to Comores, he had been thinking about how to treat malaria. Now a prescription that had been prepared long ago appeared in his mind, so he had to rush back to make medicine!

That afternoon, he went back to the cultivation base in Beijiang before hurrying all the way into the herb room.

He Xue, who was inspecting the whole cultivation base, immediately chased after Fang Qiu when she saw him going straight to the herb room as soon as he came back.

“Boss, do you have a new prescription?” He Xue asked expectantly when they arrived at the herb room.

“Yeah!”

Fang Qiu nodded at once and said, “However, we’ll lose money with this prescription.”

“Huh?”

He Xue lost interest when she heard that.

Fang Qiu found her reaction unusual.

He Xue would not act like this usually. When she heard that she was going to lose money, she would definitely figure everything out, consider everything, and then think of a solution to all the problems so as to reduce the losses as much as she could.

But this time, she had no intention of asking about it at all. She turned around with a disappointed look on her face, ready to leave.

Fang Qiu asked, “Do you have something on your mind?”

“No.”

He Xue shook her head and smiled at Fang Qiu, and then she said, “Well, I won’t take any of your time. I’m leaving.”

After that, she took a step and prepared to leave.

Fang Qiu was even more confused.

How could He Xue ever say anything like “I won’t take any of your time”?

Although he was very suspicious, Fang Qiu didn’t go any further because he had something important to do. He could only keep it in mind. “Wait,” he shouted.
