Chapter 733: Chapter 733: Mistake
Meng Han watched the two leave, dumbfounded. "Xinran, what’s gotten into Zhang Jie and Meng Zhi? They’ve been devotedly chasing you for a long time; have they lost their minds?" The incredulity made her view of life terrifying.
Just yesterday, they were crying and yelling as they offered roses, almost kneeling before Qiang Xinran to receive the queen’s favor.
Yet today, their attitudes have completely changed. What in the world is going on?
Qiang Xinran’s face was livid with humiliation. It was embarrassing enough already, and Meng Han had to speak it out loud, losing all her face in one day.
It was all because of Bai Xiao.
Good, she remembered.
She would not consider herself a person until she had stepped on Bai Xiao.
Was he just a small-town doctor, thinking just by coming here for advanced studies he could get his diploma?
He must be thinking of using this opportunity to strike gold and leap over the dragon gate.
She wanted to see if her uncle, the Director of Educational Affairs at the Medical University, couldn’t handle a foreign student coming for advanced studies.
Let’s wait and see.
Of course, Bai Xiao didn’t know; he was going downstairs to find the Director to register, not knowing what his subject category was.
Having never attended school, he knew nothing. He was just a glaring novice.
When he arrived at the Office of Political Education and Counseling, the middle-aged woman, Teacher Li, was not there; instead, there was another teacher, this time a male teacher wearing black-rimmed glasses, who looked somewhat scholarly.
Knowing Bai Xiao’s purpose, he picked up the phone to call Teacher Li.
"Teacher Li, there’s a student called Bai Xiao who came to register today, saying he hasn’t chosen his subjects yet... What... In your desk drawer, there’s paperwork for him, already processed. Alright, alright, I’ll give it to him, okay, okay."
The teacher hung up the phone and searched through Teacher Li’s desk, indeed finding a form.
"Ah! Isn’t this already filled out? Look, it says Traditional Chinese Medicine Clinic, wait, this is your admission notice, but why has your category been filled in as Surgery Clinic? What are we going to do?"
The teacher was genuinely anxious; after all, Traditional Chinese Medicine and Surgery were completely unrelated; how could such a mix-up happen?
Bai Xiao looked at it! It was indeed true.
It seemed that this Teacher Li was too busy chatting on the phone today, showing an utterly irresponsible work attitude.
He was just unlucky.
How was he going to attend classes tomorrow?
"Teacher, can’t we just change it now?"
"You don’t understand! You are here for further education, and once this form is filled, it has to be submitted. The version Teacher Li has doesn’t show any backing copy, meaning it’s already been registered and submitted; later on, they won’t care what’s on the application form but only this form. Now we’re in trouble."
It seemed a severe mistake had been made.
Bai Xiao shook his head, knowing that that woman was displeased with him, but there was no need to sabotage him like this; this could ruin a person’s future.
"What usually happens in these cases?"
He refused to believe there was no way to correct it.
"There are only two options: you either take classes and do your internship and research in Surgery, or you have to go back to your original position! Wait for the next opportunity for advanced studies."
The teacher felt embarrassed even saying it.
Their mistake forcing this young girl to bear it alone.
But that was the school’s old rule; it wasn’t him making it difficult for the young lady.
He didn’t want this either.
Bai Xiao nearly spit blood.
Go back and wait a year?
This wasn’t some international joke; he had worked hard to secure this opportunity for advanced studies and was being sent back just when he had arrived.
Was this Teacher Li playing games?
