After being forced into a marriage of convenience, a master of metaphysics manipulates a cold and al

"Ye Bai, this is Director Du Zhongjing, the head of the Department of Traditional Chinese Medicine, and this is Director Song Fuling, the head of the Department of Traditional Chinese Materia Medica. These two directors are the TCM masters I was telling you about. Don't let their young age fool you; their medical skills are truly extraordinary..."

Inside the office, Chen Yizhen introduced Ye Bai and the two department heads of TCM-related majors to each other.

Ye Bai will be teaching these two subjects this time: Traditional Chinese Medicine and Traditional Chinese Materia Medica.

The two department heads, one male and one female, both have very interesting names.

One is the courtesy name of a famous ancient doctor, and the other is simply Chinese medicinal herbs, which are quite a good match for their respective professions.

Du Zhongjing was about fifty years old, with a serious face, rarely smiled, and looked somewhat old-fashioned.

Moreover, after hearing Chen Yizhen use the phrase "Master of Traditional Chinese Medicine" to introduce Ye Bai, a clear look of disdain flashed in his eyes.

Clearly, Director Du didn't think this young man was worthy of such a title, but he refrained from making sarcastic remarks on the spot out of respect for Chen Yizhen.

Chen Yizhen is not only a famous doctor in Jingzhou, but also the vice president of Jingzhou Medical College.

That is why he was qualified to arrange for Ye Bai to teach at the medical school.

Song Fuling was much younger than Du Zhongjing, looking to be just over thirty. She was a very beautiful woman with an oval face, almond-shaped eyes, and a great figure, with a curvaceous body and a charming mature allure.

When she looked Ye Bai up and down, she showed no disdain or contempt, but rather a deep curiosity in her eyes.

She knew very well how arrogant Chen Yizhen was in the field of medicine, and that there were very few medical experts who could be regarded as worthy of his attention.

It is highly unusual to place such importance on a young person.

"Director Du, Director Song, hello."

Ye Bai smiled and shook hands with the two department heads, his expression calm and his attitude neither humble nor arrogant.

He came here to teach not for work, much less to make money, so of course he has no need to curry favor with anyone.

Moreover, as long as the relationship between colleagues is superficial, it doesn't really matter how close they are.

After a brief introduction, Chen Yizhen, after consulting with Ye Bai and the two directors, decided to have Ye Bai give a trial lecture in the afternoon, which all the professors would attend.

The vice principal does have considerable power, but after all, this is about assigning a teacher to give a lesson, not any other position.

Whether it works or not, we'll have to let the facts speak for themselves.

Otherwise, if Ye Bai is merely a figurehead, he could easily mislead young people.

Ye Bai had no objection to this. After all, he was here to teach knowledge, so it didn't matter what kind of course he taught.

Letting those professors see my level of expertise seems like a good idea, to prevent any fools from causing trouble later.

These days, there are just too many people who like to stir up trouble.

"Directors, which of you has time later, could you please take Ye Bai for a walk around the campus to familiarize him with the environment and offices?"

Chen Yizhen looked at Du Zhongjing and Song Fuling and smiled.

In fact, he planned to directly reveal Ye Bai's identity as the Qin family's son-in-law. This way, he could skip the trial lecture and other similar procedures, and he wouldn't have to worry about anyone provoking Ye Bai in the future.

But Ye Bai preferred to keep a low profile and wouldn't let him talk about it, which left him somewhat helpless.

"I have something to do in a bit, I don't have time."

Du Zhongjing refused decisively and then turned and left.

Chen Yizhen frowned, feeling both frustrated and helpless.

Du Zhongjing's bad temper was well-known throughout the medical school, yet he was also a highly skilled physician and a veteran.

Once she gets angry, not only will she not give him face, but even if the principal comes, it won't work.

Song Fuling said with a charming smile, "I happen to be free, so let me take Teacher Ye there."

Chen Yizhen breathed a sigh of relief and smiled, "Then I'll have to trouble Director Song."

How can you say that this woman was able to sit in the high position of department head at such a young age? Putting everything else aside, her insight and judgment far surpassed that of Du Zhongjing.

……

"Teacher Ye, if I may ask, which medical school did you graduate from?"

Song Fuling swayed her slender and supple waist, her walk exuding charm.

With her stunningly beautiful face, she attracted countless ardent gazes from male students and teachers along the way.

A beautiful woman in her thirties can be even more attractive to men than a girl in her twenties.

This is especially true for those who love reading about the Three Kingdoms and idolize Cao Cao.

"I'm sorry, I didn't go to medical school."

Ye Bai shook his head and subtly moved a little distance away from Song Fuling to the side.

He wasn't worried about having any scandal with this beautiful director, but rather that the perfume she was wearing was a little too strong for his more sensitive sense of smell.

"Didn't go to medical school? Then it seems you come from a family of traditional Chinese medicine practitioners!"

A strange light flickered in Song Fuling's beautiful eyes, but she wasn't too surprised.

True transmission of traditional Chinese medicine takes place in schools, but most of it is still passed down through family lineages.

This is also a drawback of traditional Chinese medicine, as its methods of inheritance are too limited.

After all, a family has a limited population, and it is very likely that no one with a talent for medicine will emerge from it.

While taking on apprentices can alleviate the problem, it's only a temporary solution.

How many people can truly pass on all their family's secret skills to outsiders without any selfishness?

However, it is undeniable that even if the descendants of traditional Chinese medicine families are not particularly talented, they still possess a much stronger grasp of theoretical knowledge and secret formulas than others.

She'd be more than qualified to be a teaching assistant at the medical school.

Judging from Chen Yizhen's attitude, Ye Bai, although nominally a teaching assistant, is actually going to teach classes individually, which is quite intriguing.

Normal teaching assistants don't have this qualification.

At this moment, Ye Bai became even more mysterious in Song Fuling's eyes.

Ye Bai, of course, had no idea about these things, and did not refute Song Fuling's conclusion.

His medical skills were all taught by the Old Celestial Master, belonging to the Xuanmen lineage.

If you insist on saying he is a descendant of a family of traditional Chinese medicine practitioners, that wouldn't be wrong.

Jingzhou Medical College is so large that it's impossible to see the whole place in a short time.

Fortunately, Ye Bai wasn't here for tourism. He only needed to figure out where the offices, classrooms, cafeteria, and restrooms were.

You can explore the rest of the place on your own if you're interested.

When it came to arranging an office for Ye Bai, Song Fuling was somewhat at a loss.

Teaching assistants definitely don't have their own offices; they have to share with other regular teachers.

But Ye Bai has to teach courses for two different majors, and these aren't common courses like math, language, or chemistry that every major has to take. He can't just run back and forth between two offices.

However, after some consideration, Song Fuling decided to assign Ye Bai to the Traditional Chinese Medicine major, which she was in charge of.

Although she didn't know Ye Bai's background, she could tell from Chen Yizhen's attitude that the vice principal valued this young man highly.

In that case, it's never a bad thing to make more friends.
