Xia Xiwan slightly twisted her eyebrows. How can there be immortality in this world? In order to live forever, those ancient kings believed in the so-called fairy pills of some Taoists and took a boat to Penglai Wonderland. In the end, they not only failed, but also ended up in a bad situation.
A happy ending.
Why is this Ye Lao so obsessed with this?
Xia Xiwan remembered the look she had just had with Ye Lao. There was a bit of crazy darkness hidden in Ye Lao's eyes, which made her very unhappy. Moreover, she was sensitive to the fact that Ye Lao was cold and unkind to her, probably because
The reason for his granddaughter Ye Mingzhu.
Xia Xiwan was wary that today's selection might not go so smoothly, including her desired trip to the Academy of Sciences, which might also be full of difficulties.
However, Mommy's second treasure chest is in the Academy of Sciences. She must enter the Academy of Sciences to get the treasure box. No one can stop her.
At this time, several acquaintances came forward, including Li Yanran and a few girls from T's eldest family.
Those girls surrounded Li Yanran like a princess,
Wow, Yanran, are you really getting engaged to Mr. Lu?
Mr. Lu looks so cold, but Yanran, you still have a way to take down Mr. Lu. We envy you so much!
Fan Tian and the others also heard the chirping voices of several girls. Fan Tian muttered, "Is this Li Yanran getting engaged to Mr. Lu?"
"It should be so. Recently, there are rumors of a marriage between Lu and Li in the imperial capital. This is not surprising."
"Mr. Lu saw that no strangers should be allowed in, and he was ascetic. He didn't expect that his eyesight was just that, and he liked a little white flower like Li Yanran."
At this time, Li Yanran saw Xia Xiwan. She quickly stepped forward with pride and joy on her face, "Xia Xiwan, what are you talking about? Are you talking about my wedding date with brother Han Ting? Yes, we are going to
We are engaged, and the engagement date has been chosen, it will be in three days."
Three days later?
Xia Xiwan felt that she had recovered from her serious illness, but her heart still throbbed hard when she heard about their engagement date. She did not expect that their engagement date was so urgent.
"Brother Han Ting said he wants to get engaged to me as soon as possible. It happens to be an auspicious day in three days. Xia Xiwan, I will send you an invitation letter. You are welcome to attend my engagement banquet with Brother Han Ting."
Li Yanran looked at Xia Xiwan's slightly pale face and felt happy in her heart. Ever since Xia Xiwan appeared in the imperial capital, she had taken away all her dazzling light and made herself eclipsed.
Now that she is engaged to Lu Hanting, another purpose is to bring Xia Xiwan back to her original form. Is a wild flower and weed that appears from nowhere worthy of competing with her, the proud daughter of heaven?
Xia Xiwan didn't reveal anything. She looked at Li Yanran with her bright eyes, "Congratulations first. I have already said congratulations in person, so the invitation letter is unnecessary."
After saying that, Xia Xiwan left.
Seeing Xia Xiwan's slender figure disappear from sight, Li Yanran gritted her teeth. Xia Xiwan's lukewarm attitude made her feel as if her fist had hit cotton.
But soon she raised her red lips. Xia Xiwan should be preparing for the selection of the Academy of Sciences, but it is such a pity that she is destined to have no chance with the Academy of Sciences.
…
Xia Xiwan forced herself to forget about the engagement between Lu Hanting and Li Yanran. She already knew that Lu Hanting hated her to the extreme. That day in the Emperor Bar was the best proof. Her Mr. Lu was gone, and now it was just Lu Hanting. She didn't
I need to feel sad for him again.
She still had a lot of things to do. This time she came to the imperial capital just for the Academy of Sciences. Now that the selection was about to begin, she couldn't be distracted.
At this time, a staff member suddenly came over and said, "Hello, is this Miss Xia?"
Xia Xiwan nodded, "I am."
"Our dean has invited Miss Xia to come next door to talk."
When this staff member appeared, Xia Xiwan had already guessed that Ye Lao, the president of the Academy of Sciences, wanted to have a private chat with her before the selection.
Xia Xiwan nodded candidly, "Okay, please lead the way."
…
Xia Xiwan came to the office next door, where Ye Lao was already waiting for her.
"Ye Lao, are you looking for me?"
Ye Lao looked at the calm and generous girl in front of him. She didn't feel any nervousness or embarrassment in front of him. There was a smile on her lips. She looked at him quietly and went straight to the topic, waiting for him to speak first.
This girl who can make Li Yanran and his granddaughter Ye Mingzhu feel uneasy at the same time is indeed extraordinary.
Ye Lao took a good look at Xia Xiwan and suddenly felt that this girl seemed familiar.
In fact, the first time he saw Xia Xiwan at the door, he felt very familiar.
This feeling made him repelled and disliked.
"Are you Xia Xiwan?" Ye Lao said.
Xia Xiwan nodded, "Yes, I am Xia Xiwan."
"I don't like you, so no matter how hard you try, I won't let you enter the Academy of Sciences. Give up this idea." Ye Lao directly pronounced his verdict.
Xia Xiwan knew it wouldn't go well. What she didn't expect was that the dean would reject her outright, cutting off all her chances of entering the Academy of Sciences.
"Why?"
"I heard that you just came to the Imperial Capital a month ago, and you are already very popular in the Imperial Capital. Your name has already spread to my ears. Every place has its own circle, just like the circle of celebrities in the Imperial Capital has its own circle.
The sudden intrusion of you, an outsider, into the circle of celebrities has broken a balance. If you are allowed to enter the Academy of Sciences, I have a hunch that you will also break the existing balance of the Academy of Sciences. As the leader of the Academy of Sciences, I will never
Allow this to happen."
Xia Xiwan understood. She straightened her slender back, and a sharp light burst out from her clear pupils, "Mr. Ye, you are a feudal and stubborn person. What is the Academy of Sciences? What is the Academy of Sciences?
Born for medicine, not your personal territory. You want to control the Academy of Sciences in your own hands and do not allow anyone to challenge your authority. You are so stubborn that you will retreat if you don't advance."
Ye Lao's expression changed drastically. He stood up suddenly and looked at Xia Xiwan with shocked eyes, "You...who are you?"
These words were told to him more than twenty years ago!
Xia Xiwan's eyes lit up when she saw Ye Lao's sudden change in expression, but she said calmly, "Why, who do you think I am?"
Ye Lao fell into his own memories, "These words, someone told me more than 20 years ago, that person is... my master!"
What?
Xia Xiwan had just guessed that Ye Lao's huge reaction must have something to do with her mother, but what she didn't expect was that... Mommy is Ye Lao's master?
Oh my gosh.
It's incredible.
"About twenty years ago, a mysterious girl came to the Imperial City. She accepted a few close disciples, the eldest of whom was me. She taught me medical skills and taught me to establish the Academy of Sciences. She single-handedly created the current order of the Imperial Capital's medical community.
