Chapter 1464 - 1467: The Girl Infected with Gu: Filariasis Fever (Part 5)

Zong Zijin spoke with an air of pretentious righteousness, and although his words contained no direct accusation against Shen Qiang, the lecturer's expression changed immediately. Even the school beauty, Qin Yurou, sitting next to Shen Qiang, had a frosty look on her face. Her beautiful eyes showed displeasure, and even the delicate Liu Mei furrowed her brows.Because, unless one is a fool, it was clear that Zong Zijin was evidently mocking Shen Qiang for stealing someone else's achievements.

This immediately stirred a buzz of discussion throughout the classroom.

"That's right, if Zong Zijin hadn't mentioned it, I would have almost forgotten about it. When the reporters questioned them, Ju Yang was mentioned as well, but the teacher in charge of this project, Ju Yang, gave all the credit to Shen Qiang."

"Bringing this up just makes me chuckle. This matter, that Thermophilic Streptococcus Oral Liquid, was clearly a team effort, yet it ended up being credited solely to Shen Qiang. If it were me with such a team, wouldn't I be equally amazing?"

"Exactly, to hog all the glory of the team. What a shameless act someone must do to accomplish this."

Listening to the discussions echoing in the classroom, Shen Qiang smiled.

Actually, there were only four cultivators in the entire classroom: Qin Yurou, the auditing student Abi, Zong Zijin, and Shen Qiang.

Regarding Shen Qiang's capabilities in elixir pills, not to mention the Thermophilic Streptococcus Oral Liquid, even if Shen Qiang developed more amazing pharmaceuticals, the other three would not be surprised.

Therefore, what Zong Zijin said was plainly intended to disgust Shen Qiang, to embarrass Shen Qiang in front of the classmates and damage Shen Qiang's reputation.

Moreover, he spoke with pretentious righteousness, without directly accusing Shen Qiang, but only praising Ju Yang. In this situation, if Shen Qiang got angry, not only would he become a spokesperson for rudeness, but it would also make his classmates think Shen Qiang was guilty and angered for being exposed.

Impressive indeed!

Shen Qiang raised an eyebrow with a smile, admiring in his heart the sophisticated and cunning minds prevalent in the graduate school of Jing Medical University.

First, the lecturer used a ploy, talking about lions and cats, then used himself and Qin Yurou as targets to motivate other students to surpass them.

From a technical standpoint, this ploy, although somewhat displeasing to Shen Qiang, undeniably could be effective if everything went smoothly, as it gave the students a goal to strive for.

However, Zong Zijin was even more formidable.

With just a sentence, he shifted the focus.

Originally, the classmates were filled with determination to surpass Shen Qiang but lacked confidence to boast.

However, once Zong Zijin stirred the pot, all of the lecturer's groundwork transformed into fueling Zong Zijin's animosity against Shen Qiang.

Because after listening to Zong Zijin's words, the lofty image of Shen Qiang in the minds of other students suddenly collapsed, turning into that of a despicable person who monopolizes the research results of the team.

In such a situation, the more explanations are given, the more the classmates would think it's exactly the case, while not providing any would seem like acquiescing to what Zong Zijin said.

Also, without even thinking, Shen Qiang already knew that Zong Zijin had probably rehearsed in his mind multiple times on how to mock him, and even if Shen Qiang won, in the end, Zong Zijin, who never really criticized Shen Qiang, would still feign innocence with a righteous face.

"Uh, Zong Zijin, you seem to have misunderstood the focus of my speech." The lecturer awkwardly frowned. What was originally his proud routine to motivate students ended up being used by Zong Zijin to attack Shen Qiang. This made him extremely embarrassed and a bit angry, but evidently, whatever he said now lacked weight.

"I think I did not misunderstand the focus." Zong Zijin raised an eyebrow proudly and said, "Because what I said is the truth."

On hearing this, the lecturer was stunned.

The discussions among the students present grew louder.

"With the lecturer from the Biological Pharmacy Department presiding, the initial research being done at the university, those expert professors must have helped a lot; otherwise, how could a mere undergraduate use gene technology to control microbial communities?"

"Exactly, so this Shen Qiang probably isn't as amazing as the rumors suggest."

"He's just a spokesperson; maybe that company isn't even his, and he's just a figurehead."

The classroom was abuzz with discussion, everyone looking mockingly at Shen Qiang, hoping he would lose his temper and storm out in shame. Some, who considered themselves silver-tongued, were already gearing up to unleash their sharp words and mock this lion in the lecturer's eyes.

However, to their surprise, Shen Qiang merely smiled softly, not remotely angry, not even twitching an eyelid.

This left Zong Zijin, who wanted to see Shen Qiang make a fool of himself, somewhat disappointed, as Shen Qiang said nothing, leaving him without a target for his continued attack. So, seeing this situation, he slightly smiled and said, "I suppose, Shen Qiang, you have great respect for Teacher Ju Yang as well."

Upon hearing this, seeing Shen Qiang sit there unperturbed, the other students were flustered.

"What respect? If he really respected him, could he have seized someone else's research achievements?"

"Ha! After the Thermophilic Streptococcus Oral Liquid, why hasn't Shen Qiang developed a new drug? Isn't it because others saw through his character and won't collaborate anymore, and thus he's exhausted his creativity."

"Hmm, still lacks ability, or why would a large pharmaceutical company rely on just one medication?"

Hearing the students speaking increasingly rudely, completely deviating from his expected scene, the lecturer was anxious, angrily saying, "Enough! What nonsense are you all spouting? Before questioning Shen Qiang, have you considered whether you even have the right to do so?"

"Is the medal issued by the Ministry of Health fake? Why is it that when domestic and foreign experts unanimously acknowledge something, you have such baseless speculations? If you have the skill, go and develop a drug better than Thermophilic Streptococcus Oral Liquid!"

Upon hearing the lecturer's words, the many students present were unimpressed and pursed their lips, but still fell silent.

And right at that moment, a girl wearing a sweater and wrapped in a thick down jacket happened to be looking for a seat amidst the chaos. As everyone fell silent, she was immediately noticed. She hesitantly said, "Sorry, teacher. I had a bit of a fever and went to the infirmary, so I'm late."

The lecturer frowned slightly, noticing her flushed face, clearly a symptom of a fever, and seeing that although it was early spring, she was dressed as if it were winter, he frowned and asked, "Did you have a comprehensive examination?"

The girl was startled and then said, "I just have a slight fever. I think it might be a cold."

Hearing this, the many students present laughed, as this was the Medical University Graduate School, and everyone there were clinical medicine graduate students who knew that there are many causes of fever.

This gave a lecturer, who was initially unsure what to do next, a sudden bright idea, saying, "Great, since this fellow student is unwell, let's have a consultation. Without detailed examination reports, let's see who can diagnose her condition first."

As soon as he heard these words, Shen Qiang instantly activated the Observation Skill and looked towards the girl, immediately furrowing his brows.

"Acute filariasis! This girl is afflicted with Gu."
