Chapter 88: Anatomy Class Face-Slap

~6 min read 1,170 words

Su Xiyan never expected that simply attending an anatomy class would lead to these bizarre incidents; just now, out of the corner of her eye, she seemed to have seen a somewhat familiar man.

After the man approached, she realized he was the one who had tried to pick her up in the library earlier.

The female student's sudden provocation in the distance was likely inseparable from this man before her.

Su Xiyan gave the man she remembered as Leng Yi a disdainful glance, saying, "Please stay away from me; every time you get close, you bring trouble."

Leng Yi narrowed his eyes, obviously not wanting to miss this chance to see Su Xiyan again.

He asked, "How are you here?"

Su Xiyan skillfully tidied the workbench before her, replying impatiently:

"I'm currently a student in the Medical School of Beijing University; I'm here for the anatomy class."

Leng Yi's eyes flashed with excitement; Su Xiyan's words meant that in the coming time he would be attending class with her and could often see her on campus!. jj. br>

While Leng Yi felt happy inside, what he said aloud was:

"Huh? If you really were as miraculous as you claimed in the library that day, why would you still need to attend class?"

"Perhaps teaching us isn't impossible, or maybe you really came here for me?"

Thinking of this possibility, Leng Yi blurted it out; although he forced a cold expression while speaking, his heart pounded wildly.

Su Xiyan truly didn't know how Leng Yi could have such a bizarre thought; she gave him an incredulous look and said, exasperated:

"Wasn't what I said in the library that day clear enough? Besides, you should have seen the man who appeared with me that day—he's my husband."

"So please refrain from saying such nonsense in public from now on. Thank you."

"Also, if possible, please don't come within five meters of me; I feel that just sharing the same air with you makes nearby women angry as if their husbands had been stolen."

Su Xiyan thought that anyone with a shred of shame and a bit of sense would not dare approach her after hearing her say that.

But unexpectedly, after Leng Yi's face fell, he suddenly laughed.

Besides, perhaps because Leng Yi always kept a straight face, the moment his brows softened, Su Xiyan was taken aback.

However, Su Xiyan wasn't bewitched by Leng Yi's smile; seeing his smile, she suddenly thought of Yan Moci.

Clearly such a wayward, cold person, yet when alone looking at her he was so deep‑emotioned and focused that one couldn't help but drown in it.

Having said that, Su Xiyan felt that rushing to Beijing University just for class was pointless; she could easily study at home and avoid all this trouble.

But Leng Yi misunderstood her expression, thinking his ever‑successful smile had finally won Su Xiyan over.

Nevertheless, women are always stubborn; seeing Su Xiyan's whole self flustered and lost in thought, he smugly pursed his lips beneath his mask.

Watching the interaction between Su Xiyan and Leng Yi, Zhang Meng felt even more unwilling.

She loudly repeated, "Hey, female classmate! Who are you? How are you attending our class!"

"Are you a student of our Beijing University Medical School? Please show your student ID!"

A flash of ill omen crossed Su Xiyan's eyes; even attending school peacefully could bring such bizarre trouble.

Meanwhile, Leng Yi had no intention of helping her out; he didn't believe Su Xiyan was really attending school—if she were truly Su Shen, she wouldn't need to come to class at all; a casual word from her would earn her an honorary academician position from the school right away.

The more Su Xiyan failed to produce a student ID to prove her identity, the clearer it became that she had deliberately shown up at the anatomy class today just to run into him again.

Su Xiyan naturally also noticed Leng Yi's gaze from the side; for someone like him, her heart grew colder.

Conversely, her longing for Yan Moci grew even stronger.

Yan Moci would never let her face such an embarrassing situation alone to prove her strength, whereas Leng Yi's idle watching from the side was merely to make Su Xiyan cry out for help.

Seeing Su Xiyan remain motionless for a long time, Zhang Meng felt immensely pleased; seeing Leng Yi stand by with arms crossed only made her happier.

She even affectedly shouted, her eyes full of schadenfreude, "Hey classmate, you're not really here just to audit the class to meet Leng Yi, as I said, are you?"

Su Xiyan frowned; as everyone's gaze toward her grew stranger, waiting for her to make a fool of herself, the instructor Gao Tian suddenly barked:

"Zhang Meng! From just now you've been making a fuss about what!"

Zhang Meng had thought Gao Tian would drive Su Xiyan away, but instead, after he spoke, he turned his criticism toward her!

She looked incredulous, pointing at Su Xiyan and saying:

"Teacher! Clearly this female is not a student of our class yet she's in our anatomy class!"

"Our class is the strongest cardiothoracic surgery cohort in Beijing University over the past decade, its members are the reserve talent for top hospitals nationwide."

"Leng Yi is already interning at Beijing University Hospital!"

"Letting such a woman mix in, just to get close to Leng Yi, is an outright insult to this sacred academic hall!"

Gao Tian frowned fiercely: "Zhang Meng, do you even know what you're saying?"

Gao Tian was originally a very strict teacher, but he is also now the chief surgeon of the cardiothoracic department at Beijing University Hospital; doctors like him rarely teach at universities, mostly supervising graduate students or giving lectures.

If it weren't for the fact that this cohort of cardiothoracic students truly excels in overall ability, he would definitely not have come.

But he hadn't expected to see, upon arrival, a student like Zhang Meng who harbored ulterior motives and petty scheming.

After exchanging a glance with Su Xiyan on the side and seeing her disappointed look, Gao Tian felt his scalp go numb.

Seeing Zhang Meng still wanting to target Su Xiyan, while the whole class, under Leng Yi's lead, remained silent.

Gao Tian angrily set down the scalpel in his hand,

"Look at you all now—it's truly disappointing!

"Zhang Meng, do you realize you're targeting Academician Su, who has entered the National Medical Scientific Research Institute as the Divine Hand of Qi Huang in Traditional Chinese Medicine!"

"If it weren't for her own wish to continue studying Western medicine and her willingness, despite such outstanding achievements, to humbly enter Beijing University Medical School, I wouldn't even be worthy of meeting her!"

"Yet you people, faced with such a shortcut, harbor these petty thoughts and cold, contemptible attitudes!"

"Can you lot truly be worthy of the sacred vocation of a doctor, taking healing the sick as your heavenly duty!"

"I am truly utterly disappointed in you!"
