The provost was in his fifties. His health deteriorated as he got older, and Professor Chen was his TCM physician who helped him regulate his body.

His health improved after drinking a few sachets of the medicine Professor Chen prescribed for him. Therefore, other than his academic admiration for Professor Chen, the provost also respected Professor Chen as his life savior.

When he heard Professor Chen say that he had something to tell him in a not very good tone, his expression became serious.

“What is it, Professor Chen?”

“I would like you to investigate something. My student has been reported for copying during exams because she got first place.”

The provost frowned. “I’ve heard second-place students who copied during exams. Who can the first-place student copy from?”

Ms. Wan’s face turned red.

Ji Man still wanted to prove that she was right. She tried her luck by saying, “Tang Beibei copied from books.”

The provost glared at Ji Man. “She copied from books, but we didn’t have any open-book exams. Ji Man, are you questioning the invigilators or the way the school is conducting exams?”

The provost’s face darkened as he looked outside the room and warned in a low voice, “Tang Beibei almost always got first place and kept her scholarship since she enrolled here. Why haven’t anyone reported her for cheating in the past?” “Did you open your heavenly eye and see her cheat? Or is there something wrong with your brain and you have delusions?”

Ji Man’s face turned red after being scolded by the provost. She wanted to say more but didn’t dare to. She hung head in grievance.

Seeing her guilty look, the provost knew that she was not in the right.

Ji Man was pretending to be wronged because she could no longer defend her accusation.

“Professor Chen, this must be a small conflict between students. Please don’t be angry.”

“This matter is no longer between students. Ms. Wan has been alerted, and she has even specially asked my student here to humiliate her!” Professor Chen snitched openly.

The provost looked at Ms. Wan and was so angry that his head hurt.

Ms. Wan had been restless when she was in the School of Management. She often had “mishaps” and even received complaints from the students. He had transferred her to the TCM faculty on account of her connections. He did not expect her to be in trouble again in just a few days.

“Ms. Wan, you’ve been too muddle-headed!”

“Yes, I was confused.”

Ms. Wan knew how to read the situation. She already realized that the provost was on Professor Chen’s side and quickly lowered her head to admit her mistake.

“Were you just confused? No, you’ve been a b*stard, an idiot!” Professor Chen didn’t give any face when he scolded people.

The provost’s expression was unsightly but he didn’t dare to refute and stood there to be scolded together with Ms. Wan.

“I despise this kind of teacher even if she taught primary school! How can she be a teacher at a university? The first thing a university teacher must teach their students is how to be a good person. How can she do that when she herself is a terrible person?”

“Provost, is her idiocy contagious?”

“Or are you having an affair with her? You kept here at the university and support her with school money?”

“No, no, Professor Chen. Please don’t say that. How can I go home if word gets out?”

The provost was so anxious that he about to lift his leg and stomp Ms. Wan to death.

She was one bad apple that spoiled the bunch!

“Teacher Wan has indeed been a poor role model and bad teacher. I’ll give you two choices. Become a librarian and read more books to cultivate your character or resign. I’ll give you a month’s severance pay.”

“Provost, I…”

“Shut up. Nothing you say will make up for your stupid behavior. Professor Chen is here but he doesn’t even have a cup of hot tea and there’s broken glass all over the floor!”

“You can’t afford the compensation if this old man is hurt!”

Ms. Wan couldn’t explain her pain. The broken glass all over the floor was caused by Professor Chen himself.

The provost looked at her, and the more he looked at her, the more disgusted he became. “Hurry up and bring in some tea. You don’t respect your elders at all. Professor Chen has already said so much. He must be thirsty now.”

Ms. Wan wanted to say something but held back. When she met the provost’s warning eyes, she admitted defeat and went out to get tea.

She walked out of the meeting room and saw a few strangers standing in the open office. She didn’t think much about them and went to the pantry to get tea.

After sending his eyesore away, the provost smiled and comforted Professor Chen. “Professor Chen, I’m here to tell you good news.”

“Good news?”

“Yeah, someone came to the university with a silk pennant.”

“Huh? What’s so good about another silk pennant?”

Professor Chen had been a doctor for years, and had received at least six hundred, if not eight hundred, silk pennants. He did not find the news interesting at all.

The provost shook his head and smiled. “This pennant is not for you. It’s for your student, Tang Beibei.”

Only then did Professor Chen look up at the provost. “For Tang Beibei?”

“Yes, Tang Beibei saved a certain Madam Wu in a mall. Madam Wu wanted to thank her savior and approached Jingdu TV to find her. She finally found Tang Beibei. She’s in better health now and wanted to thank Tang Beibei with this silk pennant.”

“Really?” Professor Chen looked at Tang Beibei.

It was indeed good news that his student had saved someone. He was also proud of his student.

Tang Beibei was dumbfounded.

She had saved Madam Wu, but she thought that it was just talk when the TV station said that Madam Wu wanted to give her a silk pennant. She did not expect her to actually send one to her university.

“Of course, it’s true. Madam Wu even specially left the hospital to visit Tang Beibei.” The provost said with a smile as he walked to the door.

“Madam Wu, please come in. There’s also a reporter here who’s reporting on this matter.”

Madam Wu walked into the meeting room and saw Tang Beibei. She quickly walked up to her and said, “Hello young miss, I’ve finally found you. Thank you for saving my life.”

“Madam Wu, are you feeling better?”

“Yes. I feel much better now. I’ve been thinking about you all this while. I feel like you’re the little fairy I asked Guanyin for. So pretty.”

The first thing Madam Wu heard from Tang Beibei was Tang Beibei asking about her health. She was a kind and cute little girl and Madam Wu liked her from the bottom of her heart.

Tang Beibei was embarrassed by her words and smiled politely. She wasn’t very good at socializing and didn’t know how to talk to friendly people.

“Little fairy, your name is Tang Beibei, right?”

Madam Wu repeated her name. “Beibei, you are indeed a precious treasure. You said you don’t want money, so I got you a silk pennant. Hope you don’t mind.”

“No, no, I’m very touched that you are here in person. You should be resting in the hospital.”

“My heart problem has been going on for years. Coming out for a walk makes me feel better.” Madam Wu sighed and smiled as she took the silk pennant and gave it to Tang Beibei.

“My mood has improved since I saw you here.”

The reporter immediately said, “Stand closer together. Let me take a photo you together.”

Madam Wu hugged Tang Beibei for the photo. Tang Beibei was a little embarrassed and smiled unnaturally at the camera.

Her expression was very stiff.

When Tang Beibei lowered her head to look at the silk pennant, her stiff expression turned into one of laughter and tears.

The pennant said that she was Hua Tuo reincarnated, with magical healing hands!

She wouldn’t dare to accept such a commendation.

However, it was difficult for her to reject even if she wanted to as Madam Wu forced the pennant into her hands. She could only awkwardly accept it.

Ji Man, who was still standing in the meeting room, heard that Tang Beibei had saved someone’s life in a mall. She was only a sophomore who hadn’t even done an internship at a hospital. She was clearly capable.

This was undoubtedly another few slaps in her face. Ji Man was so embarrassed that she wanted to find a hole to hide in.

She turned to leave, but she heard the voice of a demon.

“Ji Man, you made a false accusation and didn’t apologize. If you want to drop out from school, the provost is here to approve your application!” Professor Chen had a bad temper, but he was extremely protective of the bullied.

How dare Ji Man bully his students? This was akin to bullying his children. Did she have no respect at all for their parent, i.e.. him?
