Urban Super Medical Saint-Chapter 709 - 708

"Teacher, Johnson said he couldn't persuade King Gustadin, so he can only participate in our integrated traditional and western medicine tumor research institute in his personal capacity," Tang Yiyuan told Ge Dongxu on Thursday afternoon when the workday was over.

"I know, tell Johnson not to worry about it, as long as he comes. Since Caroline Royal Medical College has refused our invitation, they will no longer have the opportunity to take part in this great medical research project," Ge Dongxu said indifferently upon hearing this.

What Huaxia Country truly lacks is world-class top western oncologists, so for this research, as long as Johnson comes onboard as the chief scientist for the western medicine side, we can find suitable people from our side to participate in the study. Johnson is from Caroline Royal Medical College, and since he will serve as the chief scientist for the western medicine side, it would be unscrupulous to leave Caroline Royal Medical College out of the equation, and Johnson has always wanted his medical college to be involved in this great study, which is why Ge Dongxu had never objected before.

Now that Caroline Royal Medical College is unwilling to take part, Ge Dongxu, being who he is, naturally wouldn't demean himself by begging them to join.

"Okay, Teacher, what about the western medicine side?" Tang Yiyuan nodded and then asked.

"After Johnson arrives, he will select the appropriate personnel from our country's oncologists to form a team, with priority consideration for Jiangnan University Medical College. I think, given his influence in the western medical community, many doctors in our country will be eager to participate in this research project," Ge Dongxu said.

"Absolutely! I've specifically looked into Johnson's background these past few days, and it's quite impressive. Not only is he a member of the world's top medical salon academic organizations, but he's also a favorite guest among many world-class wealthy politicians—because a number of these politicians or their family members have been under his scalpel and managed to receive treatment. Johnson even made it onto the cover of the United States' 'Time' magazine. Once we release this news, I'm afraid that the threshold of the Traditional Chinese Medicine Hospital will be worn down by many domestic cancer specialists," Tang Yiyuan said.

"Really? Well, if Johnson runs over to our side, Caroline Royal Medical College's loss will be substantial," Ge Dongxu commented with a smile, feeling slightly surprised inside, as he really didn't know Johnson had such renown.

"I think the biggest loss for Caroline Royal Medical College is not taking part in this research project," Tang Yiyuan said proudly upon hearing this.

"Haha, I do enjoy hearing that," Ge Dongxu laughed, responding to Tang's words.

"I also enjoy saying it!" Tang Yiyuan stated, looking at Ge Dongxu with an unmistakable admiration in his eyes.

It was precisely because of him that, as a practitioner of Chinese medicine, one could afford to be so "arrogant" in the face of rejection from a world-class medical college.

"Alright, let's not boast anymore. Mention this to President Feng, and just tell him it's my wish, so that those people on top don't go knocking on Caroline Royal Medical College's door begging for cooperation after they declined to participate. We only offer the opportunity once; saying more is pointless," Ge Dongxu said with a smile.

"Got it, I understand," Tang Yiyuan replied.

"Then I'm heading back first," Ge Dongxu nodded to Tang Yiyuan and then left the Traditional Chinese Medicine Hospital.

The cold wind whistled, and people hurried by, but only Ge Dongxu rode his bicycle steadily, as if he quite enjoyed the brisk chill.

Feeling the desolation of winter along the way, Ge Dongxu arrived at Jiangnan University.

Upon returning to Jiangnan University, Ge Dongxu didn't go to the cafeteria but headed straight for the library instead.

Today, although his cultivation had not yet reached the realm where he could abstain from earthly food and drink, going without food and water for several days had little effect on him.

Many times, Ge Dongxu ate merely out of a habit formed since birth; it seemed strange not to have something for meals, but it wasn't necessary.

Ever since he had gotten a glimpse into the mystery of hibernation, he had been contemplating and feeling the desolation of winter each day, and his desire for food had diminished quite a lot, to the point where if he had work in the afternoon, he was too lazy to go to the cafeteria upon returning to campus.

Before reaching the library, Ge Dongxu saw Nico looking around at the entrance.

Nico was wearing black flats, blue jeans, an orange leather jacket, and underneath, a knitted sweater.

The blue jeans perfectly outlined her round, pert buttocks and her long, full legs. Her ample bosom made the sweater stretch taut, and even in winter, there was not a hint of bulkiness on Nico, only the curves of her sensual figure, like a fire in winter, which made one feel a warmth all over upon seeing her.

Last time in Golden Mountain County, although Nico was quite clingy to Ge Dongxu, she could even be considered a bit unrestrained in private.

But after returning to school, Nico had become much more reserved, rarely disturbing Ge Dongxu.

Clearly, Nico was very smart and understood Ge Dongxu's personality well.

Therefore, Ge Dongxu hadn't seen Nico for quite some time.

Suddenly seeing her at the library, he couldn't help but have his eyes light up, feeling a sense of amazement.

Nico quickly spotted Ge Dongxu as well. Her beautiful eyes lit up, and after waving at him, she immediately walked briskly towards him.

"You're not really here just waiting for me, are you?" Ge Dongxu joked as he looked at Nico's cheeks, which were reddened from the cold wind.

"You guessed it, I went to your dormitory and didn't find you. Li Chenyu told me that you go to the library every day, so after I didn't find you inside, I just waited here. I've been waiting for a whole hour now; I'm nearly frozen to death!" As Nico spoke, she shoved her hands into Ge Dongxu's pockets, drawing astonished looks from some passing students.

"No way, don't you have my cellphone number? If you really needed me, couldn't you have just called?" Ge Dongxu casually joked, not expecting it to be true, and now looked at Nico in surprise.

"Last time in the Capital, didn't you leave a note saying I'm not allowed to call you?" Nico said.

"Please, don't be so silly! That was before, when I didn't want you to come looking for me again. Now that you're at the same school as me, why would you still hold on to the message from that note?" said Ge Dongxu, both amused and exasperated.

"I'm pretending to be silly on purpose, so you'll feel sorry, you'll feel pity, and then you'll agree to my request. I know you're a very kind-hearted man!" Nico blinked her deep blue eyes.

"What is it you want?" Ge Dongxu asked, looking at Nico's eyes filled with exotic charm, and couldn't help but feel a headache coming on.
