Chapter 787: 786. Have you been waiting long? Chapter 787: 786. Have you been waiting long? Master Qin burst into laughter upon hearing his old friend’s words.
“Oh? You people with eyes on top of your heads, have you finally realized your inadequacies?”
In the words of the younger generation, this is truly exciting news!
“I’ve told you long ago, the young people today are much more formidable than in our ti. If Chinese dicine wants to develop, it must be made accessible to the youth. Now you see how formidable Xiao Tang Shu is, right?”
The download numbers for each of Xiao Tang Shu’s herb picking videos are astronomical, many tis greater than those produced by the dical College.
Old Master Xie nodded in agreent while quietly sipping his tea, fully siding with Master Qin.
“That’s exactly right. As people… it’s not good to be unwilling to admit defeat.”
Section Chief Kong, fully aware of the mischievous humor of the two beside him, rolled his eyes heavenward and didn’t deign to look at them directly, instead starting a conversation with Tang Shu, the person involved.
“May I call you Xiao Shu?”
Tang Shu’s mouth twitched at the sight of the smiling, kind face, while the image of the previous eye-roll still echoed in her head.
Sure, birds of a feather flock together. This Section Chief Kong from the dical College, said to be Master Qin’s friend, definitely shared a similar infuriating manner of conducting himself!
“Of course, since you’re a senior in the field of dicine, a na is just a form of address. Calling Xiao Shu is fine.”
“Haha, if every dical student nowadays was as capable as you, we elders would wake up laughing from our dreams!”
As one of the decision-makers at the dical College, Master Kong was extrely knowledgeable about the developnt of dicine and also understood just how rare a student like Tang Shu was.
“We’ve studied your videos carefully, and many of the Processing Techniques shown have a significant effect on enhancing the efficacy of the dicines, which is very important for the developnt of Chinese dicine…”
After a few back-and-forth conversations, Tang Shu also understood the purpose of the three summoning her. They were indeed interested in the videos she posted on Weibo and wanted to integrate them as part of the dical College’s docuntaries.
But… The Processing Techniques for Tang Sect’s dicinal materials had such significant differences from the techniques handed down through the ages?
This was sothing she hadn’t anticipated.
“Cough cough, wait… You’re saying these docuntaries are also going to be introduced into university courses?!”
When Section Chief Kong casually ntioned this, Tang Shu completely lost her composure, imdiately picturing her classmates cursing while flipping through their textbooks…
A cold sweat broke out all over her back and spine!
Pill!
***
In mid-December, Cloudscape Group welcod its annual year-end event.
Inside Palm Pavilion, Sister Luo held a gold-embossed invitation, her expression one of amazent and her tone reflecting her deep feelings, “So you were also involved in the developnt of Cloudscape Pharmaceutical Company’s prescriptions? And here I thought the invitations President Jing gave last ti were out of consideration for you…”
Tang Shu, who was trying on clothes, looked back and said, “Isn’t that the case?”
“Of course not, whether you work at Cloudscape Pharma or not, and us receiving the invitations are two completely different things!”
“What’s the difference, didn’t we both receive the sa number of invitations?”
Although Tang Shu had been in this world for a year, she still sotis found it difficult to understand the thought processes of modern people, like now.
Sister Luo had recovered from her initial shock and marveled, “It’s a huge difference, worlds apart!”
“If you hadn’t received this invitation that reads ‘Special Advisor of Cloudscape Pharma’s R&D Departnt’, then those few invitations from last ti were rely Mr. Jing doing a favor by giving them to you, disposable and insignificant.”
But now things were different. As the Special Advisor for Cloudscape Pharma’s R&D Departnt, Tang Shu was not only involved in the formulation of the pharmaceuticals but also had a share in the profits, which was similar to being a shareholder.
Thus, the few invitations Luo Lin received from Jing Yu last ti were rightfully Tang Shu’s to begin with; she could give them to whover she wanted.
“If it’s the forr case, I would be taking several Starshine artists with simply because of the invitations. But if it’s the latter, then we’re going as friends of you, the Special Advisor, and that’s a totally different significance.”
Tang Shu fell silent for a mont, then got her point, “So, with this invitation I hold, those you received are as if invited by , right?”
“Right, smart kid! Xiao Shu, the waters in the entertainnt industry run deep, and it’s not as harmonious as it appears on the surface.”
Luo Lin, well aware of the unspoken rules of the entertainnt industry, understood this all too well. Many artists spend a great deal of money buying invitations in order to break into social circles, and this has beco an open secret within the industry.
Therefore, a good portion of the celebrities appearing at significant events are actually there uninvited, and not because they received formal invitations from the hosts.
Upon hearing this, Tang Shu reflected thoughtfully, realizing that one can’t trust everything one reads; certain things can’t be learned from netizens alone.
Luo Lin put down the gold-embossed invitation in her hand, and inadvertently looked up at her artist, only to have her attention completely captured by the sight before her in the next second.
“Oh my~~~~ This purple dress suits you so well——”
Tang Shu stood before her in a purple floor-length gown that accentuated her slender figure to perfection, drawing attention imdiately to her slim waist and legs. Her fair skin seed tailor-made for purple, adding a touch of mystery under the warm yellow light of the bedroom,
Even without makeup, her naturally good complexion made Luo Lin, sitting on the sofa, stare unblinkingly.
“Purple doesn’t suit everyone—on those with darker skin, it can look rather aging. But your skin color…”
It was just perfect, needless to say.
“No wonder when I was on the phone with the designer, she kept marveling at your skin color while looking at your photo from beginning to end.”
“Thank you for the complint?”
Afterwards, with a sowhat disapproving yet silent expression from Luo Lin, Tang Shu calmly applied a light makeup, picked up her small purse, and walked downstairs.
By that ti, Jing Yu, dressed in a sharp black suit, had already been waiting in the living room for a while.
At the sound of the distinct click of high heels, he looked up towards the staircase, and in the next mont, his dark eyes churned.
“Have you been waiting long?”
Standing opposite him, the seven-centiter heels allowed Tang Shu to look up slightly and et Jing Yu’s dark gaze.
“Not at all, I just arrived too.”
Jing Yu rose to greet her, glancing back at Luo Lin, “It’s winter now, and the temperature in the banquet hall is lower than at ho. Go bring down a coat.”
The command was simple and authoritative, without a hint of hesitation. Sister Luo, who had been transford from a top agent to an assistant in a split second, even sensed an indubitable firmness in his tone.
