Chapter 1030: Chapter 1030: Grandfather’s Old Friend Chapter 1030: Chapter 1030: Grandfather’s Old Friend During the self-service meal, many people came up to cozy up to Luo Ziling.

However, those who wanted to take him as their mentor in the morning didn’t come to cozy up; they just greeted each other when they met and then found places to sit down and eat on their own.

Wang Qing and Li Jing came over to eat with them. During the meal, Li Jing lavished praise on the outstanding performance that day, saying she had recorded the whole process and sent it to Ling Ruonan. Having watched it, Ling Ruonan too sent back a message full of praise.

“Young master, your mother must have a message for you. Take a look when you’re free!” After saying this, Li Jing reminded Luo Ziling again.

Luo Ziling quickly pulled out his phone, which he had ignored that morning, and indeed saw that Ling Ruonan had sent him a message.

In the message, Ling Ruonan praised what he had done that day but also reminded him not to be too arrogant, to be mindful of his age and status, and not to become a thorn in others’ eyes or the public enemy of the members of the Chinese Medicine Association.

“I’ll bear in mind the teachings of Her Majesty Mother,” Luo Ziling replied and then put away his phone.

He saw that many others had sent him messages, but it seemed impolite to play with his phone alone in the presence of the three beautiful women by his side.

He’d wait for a quiet moment later to sneak off and check his messages.

In front of Luo Ziling, Ouyang Feifei instructed Wang Qing to write a performance summary for him, including the accomplishments he was proud of or considered successful. Reluctantly, Wang Qing couldn’t refuse Ouyang Feifei’s orders.

She could only remind Luo Ziling to tell her later about the achievements he thought were outstanding.

Right in front of the three women, Luo Ziling briefly shared his experiences of treating patients and his research achievements in the Northwest. Ouyang Feifei, Li Jing, and Wang Qing, who were not very familiar with these matters, were all greatly surprised.

They began to see Luo Ziling in a new light.

The afternoon class started at two o’clock. After breakfast, everyone went back to their rooms to rest for a while.

While resting in the room, Wang Qing was busy writing for Luo Ziling, and Li Jing was also occupied.

She was recording some of the events Luo Ziling mentioned. These were Luo Ziling’s credentials and achievements, which were meant for promotion when they returned.

“What about the manuscript for your lecture this afternoon?” Ouyang Feifei asked Luo Ziling, “Do you want them to help you make a PowerPoint presentation?”

“Can they do that?” Luo Ziling asked Wang Qing softly.

“Of course,” said Wang Qing, who was proficient in secretarial work. She looked at Luo Ziling with disdain as if looking at an idiot.

Seeing Wang Qing look at him that way, Luo Ziling immediately became a bit angry.

Without any courtesy, he immediately asked Wang Qing to prepare a PowerPoint presentation for him.

Poor Wang Qing immediately realized that Luo Ziling was seeking revenge, but she did not refuse and began to prepare the PowerPoint right away.

However, after hearing the content of Luo Ziling’s lecture, she was stunned.

Because the content Luo Ziling was going to talk about was beyond her understanding: theories of traditional Chinese medicine, the integration of Chinese and Western medicine, criticism of those in traditional medicine content with the status quo, relying solely on predecessors’ achievements and research without innovation, and so on–she couldn’t add images. Therefore, to make this PowerPoint, it was impossible to finish in a short time.

Seeing Wang Qing’s troubled expression, Luo Ziling suddenly felt a rush of triumphant revenge.

“If you can’t do it, just forget it,” Luo Ziling said with an air of profound mystery, “Even without PPT, I can still talk nonsense for half a day. Different industries don’t understand each other; without understanding traditional medicine, it’s impossible to create meaningful presentations.”

Luo Ziling’s seemingly casual words hurt Wang Qing deeply. The word “impossible” really never existed in her dictionary; it was a source of pride and the main reason why Ouyang Feifei valued her so much.

No matter what the task was, she always completed it well.

But today, she encountered her first problem.

If Luo Ziling had been the one who asked her to do the task, she wouldn’t have felt too bad about not being able to do it, but it was Ouyang Feifei who had asked her for help.

Not completing a task assigned by Ouyang Feifei definitely caused her distress and a sense of defeat.

However, with her limited understanding of traditional medicine, she was at a loss about the complex concepts Luo Ziling talked about.

Luo Ziling was actually deliberately making things difficult for her.

If he were to give the lecture, many of the things he just talked about would not be brought up by him because in his eyes, those things were outdated; if he wanted to explain, he could convey them in a more understandable way. He deliberately said this in front of many people to make Wang Qing uncomfortable.

That’s because Ouyang Feifei’s assistant had always been hostile towards him, and even when Yang Xiaodong showed interest in him, she always treated him with cold indifference.

Luo Ziling knew that Wang Qing was simply being loyal to her boss, unwilling to see Ouyang Feifei treating him in such a manner, voicing dissatisfaction on behalf of Ouyang Feifei, which is why she was unfriendly to him. But Luo Ziling didn’t feel good about Wang Qing, so he played a little trick and took this opportunity for a small act of revenge.

Seeing Wang Qing’s troubled expression and Ouyang Feifei’s displeased look, Luo Ziling secretly rejoiced.

At that moment, there was a knock on the door. Li Jing rushed to open it and saw Wu Sanming, the highly respected traditional medicine expert they had met at the conference that morning, standing at the doorstep. She quickly welcomed the elder in.

Upon seeing Wu Sanming’s visit, Luo Ziling and Ouyang Feifei hurried to greet him.

“I’ve seen Elder Wu,” Luo Ziling said respectfully as he approached since he had spoken up for Wu Sanming earlier that day and had a good impression of him.

Ouyang Feifei also stepped forward to pay her respects.

“I hope my impromptu visit has not disturbed your peace,” Wu Sanming chuckled and exchanged pleasantries as he walked into the room, then jokingly added, “Ah, Mr. Luo is truly blessed with good fortune, to be accompanied by so many beauties, how envious!”

“It seems that Elder Wu is also a man of passion,” Luo Ziling laughed heartily and took the opportunity to introduce Ouyang Feifei, as well as Li Jing and Wang Qing, who had stood up to welcome him. “These are my friends, and we all came together to attend the Chinese Medicine Conference.”

“You performed exceptionally well today, truly impressive,” Wu Sanming said with a beaming smile as he looked over Luo Ziling, then glanced at Ouyang Feifei with a profound expression.

Ouyang Feifei, ever tactful, asked Wang Qing to serve tea to Wu Sanming and Luo Ziling, then excused herself and the others to return to their rooms to attend to their affairs without disturbing the conversation of the elder and the younger man; she then left for her room.

Only the two men remained in the living room.

After Wu Sanming sat down with Luo Ziling, he smiled and said, “I held you twenty years ago; back then, I escorted your grandfather and you to the Northwest. In the blink of an eye, twenty years have passed, and you’ve already grown up.”

Luo Ziling was stunned, and he immediately stood up and respectfully bowed to Wu Sanming, “So Elder Wu was an old friend of my grandfather. I am very happy to meet a friend of my grandfather today.”

Seeing Luo Ziling’s reaction, Wu Sanming also smiled happily.
