Shen Qinghan followed Yuan Dongzhi into a testing room up ahead.
Not long after, she returned.
“That was quick?”
Lin Zichen was a bit puzzled.
Shen Qinghan, pressing on her arm with a cotton swab, sat down next to him and said, “As soon as I went in, they just drew three tubes of blood from me, and then they let me out to wait for the results.”
“Gosh, drawing three tubes of blood, that’s a lot—who can stand that?”
Li Chuxin, who was close by, felt scared just hearing it and couldn’t help but complain.
Shen Qinghan gave a wry smile: “Indeed, it’s unbearable, my hand is even feeling a bit numb now.”
He Yu also found it strange: “Logically speaking, for a retest, one tube of blood should be enough. I don’t understand why they needed to draw three tubes.”
While they were talking, the team leader teacher came over to inquire about what was going on, curious why a leader from the Provincial Department of Education had suddenly come to find Shen Qinghan.
Lin Zichen answered for Shen Qinghan, saying that the results of the test were a bit abnormal and needed to be retested.
As for the specifics, he didn’t elaborate to the team leader teacher.
As time ticked by.
Soon, the genetic fusion adaptability tests at the whole base were completed.
Almost at the same time, Yuan Dongzhi came out of the test room.
Now, the expression on her face was clearly different from before. It was no longer the aloofness she had when she first arrived at the base, but instead a look of excitement and agitation, with a faint smile on her lips.
“Principal Yuan.”
Seeing Yuan Dongzhi approaching, the team leader teacher from Shanhai High School immediately stood up straight and called out somewhat nervously.
Lin Zichen and the others followed suit and greeted her as well.
Yuan Dongzhi toned down the smile on her face and said to the team leader teacher from Shanhai High School, “I have some matters to attend to with student Shen Qinghan next. You go ahead and take the other examinees back to school. Once I’m done here, I’ll arrange for someone to take her home.”
“I understand, Principal Yuan.”
The team leader teacher from Shanhai High School replied and then turned around to leave, organizing the students who had completed the genetic fusion adaptability test and were not participating in the afternoon’s mechanical transformation adaptability test to board the bus and head back to school.
Seeing this, He Yu and Li Chuxin followed the team leader teacher and left.
Lin Zichen did not leave; he wanted to stay at the base to accompany Shen Qinghan.
Yuan Dongzhi looked at Shen Qinghan and said, “Shen Qinghan, come with me, let’s talk inside.”
Shen Qinghan murmured her acknowledgment and followed her into the director’s office.
Lin Zichen waited quietly outside, using his phone to explain the situation to Zhang Wanxin and Xu Meng, telling the two mothers that he and Shen Qinghan would be home late.
Inside the director’s office.
Yuan Dongzhi, shedding her usual aloof demeanor and wearing a smile, said, “Student Shen Qinghan, the results are out—all three tubes show 21%.”
Hearing this, Shen Qinghan finally felt the heavy weight in her heart drop. Th.ê most uptodate novels are published on n(0)velbj)n(.)co/m
Yuan Dongzhi didn’t beat around the bush and cut to the chase, “Your Genetic Fusion talent is very high, and I want to take you as my disciple.”
“Ah?” Shen Qinghan was stunned.
Yuan Dongzhi didn’t explain too much, merely saying indifferently, “As my disciple, the feat I performed outside the base, walking on the waves, you will be able to do it easily in the future.”
“This is too sudden; I’m not psychologically prepared at all; can I think about it...”
Shen Qinghan said weakly.
She couldn’t make up her mind and wanted to ask Lin Zichen for his opinion before making a decision.
However, Yuan Dongzhi’s personality was very dominant, as she unilaterally decided,
“There’s nothing to consider. Being my disciple will only bring benefits, no drawbacks.”
“From this moment on, you and I are master and apprentice.”
“I hold positions both as Minister of the Nanjiang Provincial Education Headquarters and as Vice Chancellor of Shanhai University. You will attend Shanhai University.”
Having said all this independently, Yuan Dongzhi then asked Shen Qinghan, “Do you have anything to say?”
Shen Qinghan opened her mouth to say something but realized she didn’t know what to say.
In the end, she could only purse her lips and give a feeble shake of her head, “No...”
Her personality had always been on the meeker side, and under Yuan Dongzhi’s imposing dominance, she confusedly acknowledged this master.
“I don’t like complications, and I prefer to keep things simple; therefore, a verbal agreement on our master-disciple relationship will suffice. There’s no need for a formal apprenticeship ceremony,”
Yuan Dongzhi finished and took out her mobile phone to open WeChat, then said, “Come, let’s add each other on WeChat.”
Shen Qinghan obediently took out her phone, opened her WeChat QR code for her to scan.
After adding each other as friends, Shen Qinghan felt dazed, unsure of what she had just done.
Despite knowing very little about Yuan Dongzhi, she had inexplicably accepted the other as her master.
It was all so hasty...
Shen Qinghan felt extremely frustrated inside, thinking she was too soft-hearted, being led by the nose from start to finish, never knowing how to refuse.
“Oh, besides you, I have another disciple.”
“She entered the fold ten years before you, but she is about your age, also a girl; you two should get along well.”
“However, she is not currently here, and where she is, electronic devices can’t be used. It’s estimated that she won’t be able to return for a while. I’ll arrange for you two to meet when there’s an opportunity.”
“I have her picture on my phone; I’ll send it to you so you can see what she looks like.”
As she spoke, Yuan Dongzhi sent a photo to Shen Qinghan over WeChat.
Curious, Shen Qinghan clicked on the photo, and saw a tall girl of her age.
The girl had snow-white hair, a stern look with an oppressive gaze in her eyes, and was holding a bloodied spear in her hand. At her feet lay an Exotic Beast, its body larger than an elephant, giving the image a striking impact.
Shen Qinghan did not recognize the Exotic Beast in the photo, but she felt a strong sense of familiarity with the white-haired girl.
The moment she saw her, memories from second grade of elementary school suddenly surged from the depths of her mind.
Is this... Bai Xue?
Staring blankly at the girl in the photo, Shen Qinghan’s face was filled with disbelief.
