Chapter 411: Chapter 410 Phoenix, Playing Dumb
Qin Cheng: ?
Fu Sixiu’s slender fingers set down the chopsticks, he lightly raised his eyes toward the door.
He saw three n in suits standing outside; the man at the front appeared to be in his fifties, exuding an aura of long-held authority, his expression stern. The two n standing behind him looked to be in their forties and were likely his assistants.
Fu Si did not recognize them.
He stood up, his phoenix eyes smiled warmly, yet there was a cold glint at the bottom of his eyes: “Who might you be?”
Peng Xiao glanced at Fu Si, who, like him, held a high position—one could tell much at a glance.
He softened his expression, introducing himself: “Is Doctor Chi Gui here? I am Peng Xiao, a mber of the International dical Alliance, and I need to speak with her.”
To make the people in front of him believe him, he even took out his work ID.
“People from the International dical Alliance?” Qin Cheng was surprised, “Hasn’t the examination finished? What else is there?”
Fu Si did not speak; he took Peng Xiao’s ID and examined it, then turned to look at Chi Gui: “The ID seems to be valid.”
Although Fu Si knew little about the International dical Alliance, he knew that their IDs were made from special materials. The craft of embossing each person’s na was still unbroken and impossible to forge.
Chi Gui, holding her chopsticks, sighed imperceptibly.
When she answered that question, although she expected to cause a small sensation within the dical Alliance, she didn’t expect that even soone of Peng Xiao’s stature would be drawn out…
At this point, Chi Gui could only stand up, with a face full of “proud surprise,” and walked over to Peng Xiao, saying: “Ah, that’s . May I ask what you need?”
She played the part of a lesser-known individual eting her idol in her dreams very convincingly.
After all, to those in the dical Alliance, those who failed to join viewed them as idols.
Peng Xiao stood at the doorway, his sharp eyes scrutinizing Chi Gui up and down for a long ti, before finally, sowhat disappointedly giving up and asked: “What is your relation to ‘Phoenix’?”
Before coming, he ticulously listened to that recording several tis, confirming that this response had been refined, a simpler and more advanced approach than before.
Until standing at the door, Peng Xiao was sowhat excited, thinking he might et the “Phoenix,” who had made a global impact on the dical field three years ago yet mysteriously disappeared.
But now it seed…
Peng Xiao inwardly laughed at himself for thinking too much.
This girl, indistinguishable from other dical scholars, how could she be that formidable person?
Chi Gui wore a puzzled expression: “Phoenix? What Phoenix?”
Peng Xiao had no choice but to rephrase his question: “Who told you the answer to the question during the interview?”
“Oh, that…” Chi Gui feigned a sudden realization, “I t a woman while studying abroad by chance. We chatted briefly and happened to discuss this world-class problem, she then explained it to . I found her explanation quite logical, so I recorded it with a voice recorder and morized it repeatedly.”
Peng Xiao didn’t quite believe her explanation.
But since she was unwilling to reveal more, he did not press her; after all, once admitted into the International dical Alliance, there would be plenty of opportunities to investigate slowly.
He ca today for another reason as well.
Peng Xiao politely asked: “May I co in and discuss this with you further?”
Chi Gui did not want an in-depth discussion with him, but to maintain her reputation, she could only pretend to be happy: “Ah, I’m sorry, I’m so excited to see you, I forgot about that… Please, co in!”
Peng Xiao nodded to Fu Si and Qin Cheng as a greeting before coming in.
His two assistants stood guard at the doorway.
As soon as Peng Xiao entered, he took out a sleek tablet from his bag, activated a complex formula, and questioned: “Can you solve this?”
