Li Yujie was momentarily stunned, then quickly explained, "Professor Jiang, I think you've misunderstood. This is a prescription written by a classmate of mine, and it also includes hers."

Before he could finish speaking, Jiang Yu warned again, "Li Yujie, do you dare say that you have no ulterior motives in doing this?"

Li Yujie was speechless. She seemed to have done nothing wrong; Master Jing was the most authoritative person in the school.

It's normal for outstanding students to mention her in front of him, so why does Jiang Yu portray her as someone who uses connections to help students get into universities?

Even if it's through connections, the student still needs to be presentable.

In her view, Jiang Yu's behavior was blatant favoritism. He must have recommended his niece to him many times because of his relationship with Elder Jing, and now he was lecturing her.

The saying "Only officials are allowed to set fire to the mountains, but ordinary people are not allowed to light lanterns" perfectly describes him.

Li Yujie retorted, "It's normal for a teacher to appreciate outstanding students. If I saw a pearl but still put it under a stone, then I wouldn't be worthy of being a teacher. Master Jing, this little girl is the most talented I've ever seen. Just look at the prescriptions she wrote and her grades, and you'll understand."

Jiang Yu gritted his teeth in anger; Li Yujie really didn't know what was good for her.

He gripped the documents tightly in his hand and said again, "Professor Jing, according to Li Yujie, I also have many students I recommend. They are all excellent, and I will also prepare their information for you to review."

Li Yujie: "You!"

Jing Yuan shook his head helplessly and said, "I'm getting old. I just want to take on a destined apprentice and hope to pass on what I know to him. You are all more outstanding young people than I am. I hope you can also teach outstanding students. Medicine is not just about the ability to cure diseases and save lives; character and temperament are also very important. Alright, I'll go to my herb garden. As for taking on an apprentice, I said I would give all the students a test in three days. Those who pass the test will be tested in person before I consider whether to take them on as apprentices."

Jiang Yu: "Professor Jing, you can trust that there are students in my academy who will satisfy you."

Jing Yuan sighed and said, "Let's hope so!"

Actually, he's in good health, but I'm afraid he might suddenly pass away one day.

His ancestors' regrets have no one to fulfill for him, so how can he face his ancestors?

Where are you, my benefactor?

I don't know if I'll live long enough to see you one last time.

You never know whether an accident or tomorrow will come first.

Huo Xiaoyu and Huo Sijing took a few days off and returned to school. The first thing Huo Xiaoyu did upon entering the classroom was to look for Song Shuyue, only to find the seat empty.

A hint of disappointment flashed in Huo Xiaoyu's eyes; she hadn't arrived yet.

She should thank her.

Huo Sijing walked up to Huo Xiaoyu and asked directly, "Xiaoyu, how did you find out about that letter? Did someone tell you? And why did you lie to your great-grandfather? Do you know that because of your actions, your great-grandfather might die with regrets?"

Huo Sijing was furious. She had been suspicious of the letter all along, and she had finally found it with her older brother.

When she looked at the contents of the letter, she realized it was nothing like what Huo Xiaoyu had said.

The letter clearly stated that it would never forgive, but Huo Xiaoyu altered it.

After learning about this, Huo Sijing rushed to the Huo family and told them the truth, but they all tacitly accepted Huo Xiaoyu's behavior.

Thinking of this, Huo Sijing couldn't help but clench her fists.

Huo Xiaoyu couldn't be bothered to pay attention to Huo Sijing. Sometimes she really suspected that Huo Sijing was sick. Why did she always have to find something to do? Was she not feeling well?

They have to make a big deal out of such a small thing.

She knew she had subtly added a bit of meaning to her great-grandfather's letter, but given the circumstances, if she had told the truth, would her great-grandfather have been able to leave in peace?

Sometimes, a white lie is necessary.

When Huo Xiaoyu saw that the letter was dated 20 years ago, she went to investigate and found that the letter really was written 20 years ago.

Grandma Zeng has already passed away.

I heard that my great-grandfather did many things to wrong my great-grandmother when he was young, and my great-grandmother refused to see him again until her death.

Grandpa never dared to read that letter, fearing that Grandma would write that she would never be buried with him after death.

Afterwards, she told everyone what happened, and everyone in the Huo family supported her actions.

"Huo Sijing, if you're sick, go to the hospital."

"Huo Xiaoyu, you!"

Huo Xiaoyu suddenly saw Song Shuyue appear and immediately stood up and ran over, calling out, "Song Shuyue, Song Shuyue!"

Song Shuyue sat down expressionlessly, glanced at her, and asked, "What is it?"

Huo Xiaoyu scratched her short hair, a hint of embarrassment on her face. "Song Shuyue, thank you so much. You told me that the letter was true, and that my great-grandfather has already..."

Song Shuyue nodded, her brows relaxing. "No need to be so polite."

Huo Sijing was both incredulous and shocked to learn that Song Shuyue had told Huo Xiaoyu about the letter.

Song Shuyue had no connection with their family, so how could she know about the surname and even tell Huo Xiaoyu?

Huo Sijing walked over and asked, "Song Shuyue, did you tell my sister about that letter? But how did you know about the letter in the study?"

Song Shuyue: "I don't know, I'm just guessing."

Huo Sijing was speechless after being rebuked, and glared at her fiercely, suspecting that Song Shuyue was doing it on purpose.

"you!"

Huo Sijing turned and strode away.

Huo Xiaoyu was overjoyed, "Song Shuyue, I love what you say, but speaking of which, did you really just guess?"

Song Shuyue hummed in agreement. Just then, the teacher walked in and began the day's lessons.

The teacher said something after school.

Three days later, Master Jing will personally come to the academy to accept an outstanding disciple.

Upon hearing this news, everyone present gasped in surprise, except for Song Shuyue.

Huo Xiaoyu moved to sit next to Song Shuyue. Seeing that Song Shuyue's emotions were unmoved, she couldn't help but ask curiously, poking her arm and asking, "Aren't you excited? This is a rare opportunity! That's Master Jing, the most powerful doctor, known as a living god. He once brought a person back to life after being dead for three days. He's also known as the Hua Tuo of our time. He's a pinnacle of traditional Chinese medicine. He's actually going to take on a disciple, and he's coming to our academy."

Huo Xiaoyu could hardly hide the excitement in her voice as she spoke, as if she wanted to dance with joy.

Hearing her say that, Song Shuyue became quite curious about this old man Jing, wondering if his medical skills were really that amazing.

The information he found was very mysterious, and the introduction of the old man was only briefly mentioned, which showed that someone was protecting his identity and preventing people from finding out more.
