1018: I Knew You Were Coming, So I Came

I Knew You Were Coming, So I Came

Whether or not Lucy was a member of the Xunyu Natural Science Research Association did not affect her decision.2

"Why do you want to join the Xunyu Natural Science Research Association?" Lucy asked again.

"That has nothing to do with you."

Jian Yiling gave Lucy a similar response in the same indifferent tone.

In fact, Jian Yiling was not interested in having a further conversation with Lucy.

She knew that Lucy was not assessing her. If Lucy was the assessor, she would not be merely saying that she was a member of the association.

"I hope you will be able to say those things to me later," Lucy replied coldly to Jian Yiling.

However, Jian Yiling ignored Lucy. She instead continued to walk towards the laboratory.

After she entered, a middle-aged woman greeted her. The woman appeared to look roughly forty years old. She was Asian and had a round body shape. Her skin was fair and she had a kind face.

The woman wore a white lab coat.

"Miss Jian, I welcome you here," the woman said gently.

"Thank you."

When she heard Jian Yiling's soft reply, the smile on the woman's face intensified.

"For a long time, I've seen your picture on various reports. Back then, I thought that you were super cute already. However, surprisingly, you're even cuter in person."

When Jian Yiling heard this compliment, she somewhat lowered her head in embarrassment.

The woman noticed this and smiled again. She was indeed adorable.

Then, the woman said to Jian Yiling: "You don't need to be afraid. I'm your examiner. My name is Yu Xing and I'm forty-seven years old. My daughter is older than you. If you want, you can call me aunty or sister."

"Sister Yu," Lucy said as she walked over.

"Lucy, you're here too," Yu Xing greeted Lucy. "You can come and see the standard of top surgeons."

When she heard this, Lucy asked Yu Xing: "Sister Yu, nowadays, is the Xunyu Natural Science Research Association interested in surgical talent?"

Typically, Xunyu was interested in performing research.

Furthermore, surgery was not a part of the research they usually conducted.

They were more interested in technical things rather than academic things.

Yu Xing smiled before she replied: "Well, if it's ordinary surgical talent, we would naturally not consider that individual. However, Miss Yiling is very skilled. Therefore, we are willing to consider her. Furthermore, Miss Yiling has obtained the recognition of Lahaisen Hospital. That in itself means that she's an extraordinary individual."

The recognition of Lahaisen Hospital was a very important aspect.

Lucy awkwardly smiled when she heard this. Then, she looked at Jian Yiling again. This time, there was a chill in her eyes.

Yu Xing continued to say: "Miss Jian, please come in with me. Just relax. What we want to examine is not your professional knowledge. I believe that you're capable in your field of expertise. I have to admit that in your areas, I'm definitely not as professional. Today, I will instead be examining some abilities that are necessary to join our organization."

When Jian Yiling entered the assessment room, she saw another familiar person.

Qin Chuan!

Why was he here?

"Yiling," Qin Chuan greeted with a gentle smile on his face.

In the original novel, only Mo Shiyun had the honor to see this smile.

Back then, Jian Yiling had gone to great lengths to get Qin Chuan to look at her.

"Why are you… Here?"Jian Yiling asked cautiously.

As she was nervous, she had to pause when she spoke.

Jian Yiling's eyes seemed wary as she looked at Qin Chuan.

"I knew you were coming so I came," Qin Chuan responded.

"Oh," Jian Yiling answered quietly.
