Chapter 401: Intimidating
“We are all ordinary civilians who try to become a doctor, but you not only made use of Lord Huai to get accepted by Saint College, but also stay absent from courses. Now you are getting married and are still wandering about here, are you trying to steal our positions too?”
“…”
“I know you are not from a high-ranked family and you don’t feel that marrying the Lord is a firm thing, so you are trying to prove your own abilities through other methods. But what about us, have you ever considered that?” Liu Hanxiang snapped angrily, sounding very reasonable.
Many bystanders nodded alongside. They all thought that what she said made sense.
She was going to the Princess Consort and she was still here causing them trouble. The other students were just concubine’s children who needed opportunities, how unreasonable she was!
A lot of people started to gossip.
Gu Chaoyan frowned and glared at Liu Hanxiang. “I am making use of Lord Huai? Liu Hanxiang, can’t you think a bit before speaking?”
“…”
“When the Dean was choosing the candidate, we had a contest, and I beat all of you! If I am not qualified to become a doctor, what qualification do you have to be at Saint College?” Gu Chaoyan sounded sharp, refusing to retreat.
Liu Hanxiang was speechless.
The other bystanders flushed as well. They all thought that Liu Hanxiang was talking sense, and forgot that there had been a contest. They did lose in the contest.
The bystanders, who were still nagging, were now disbanded.
Liu Hanxiang was unconvinced. “Hey you all, don’t leave now!”
She said as she was about to leave too.
However, Gu Chaoyan pulled her back and gripped Liu Hanxiang’s chin, glaring directly into her eyes. “I have been tolerating you, because I am sparing you, but don’t ever take it that I am easy to bully! If anything like this happens again, you won’t just suffer this little.”
Then she released her hand.
Liu Hanxiang lost her balance, staggered backwards and fell. She looked at Gu Chaoyan in disbelief.
Gu Chaoyan had already left with Sword One.
The Herb Room was located slightly far from the Medical Department. It was a wonderful location with quietness, so Li Yuanxiang was not disturbed. That seemed to be quite a proper place and job for Li Yuanxiang.
Li Yuanxiang was quite talented in medicine, but she was innocent and not good at socializing.
“Yuanxiang?” Gu Chaoyan shouted from outside.
“Chaoyan? Is that you!” Li Yuanxiang shouted excitedly and opened the door. “It is you!”
A scent of medicine was spread.
Gu Chaoyan felt that it was a wonderful smell.
“You are making pills?”
“Oh yes.” Li Yuanxiang answered cheerfully.
Gu Chaoyan asked Sword One to pass her the fruits. “Here, try them!”
Li Yuanxiang found these red-looking fruits very tasty, and she was about to grab one when the fruits were taken away by the Dean, who took a bite and said, “It is so tasty.”
“Chaoyan, why didn’t you bring any for us?” The Dean asked, sounding displeased.
“Here is your portion, Dean!” Gu Chaoyan looked helpless – what was the Dean stealing the students’ fruits?
Then she turned around and was about to get the stuff when the Dean’s face turned serious. “Hang on, come with me now. I had planned to call you from home, but now you are here, thank goodness.”
