Chapter 1019: [1019] The lecture that was packed in advance

Everyone arrived early, truly just because they were afraid they wouldn’t be able to see, just like rushing for good stuff in a supermarket.

Once the conference hall reached a certain number of people, it would be packed, and no one else could squeeze in; they could only stand outside. I reckon the organizers will have to rope off the entrance soon to stop more people from coming in.

Teacher Lu worried for the students from the hospital: "There are too many people."

Are there any seats left? A few people looked inside the room, knowing some colleagues had come early to save seats.

A figure stood up from the front row seats and called out, "Teacher Lu!"

"He came earlier than us." Seeing that it was Student Yu from his own building who had saved a seat, Teacher Lu happily responded.

The group made their way through the narrow gaps between the people.

"Teacher, here, sit down." Kang Mingzhu stood up with Yu Xuexian, making room for the newcomers by vacating previously reserved chairs.

"Do you guys have enough seats?" Teacher Lu, ever polite, asked before sitting down to ensure the students had places to sit.

"Enough, enough. Our people came very early." As Kang Mingzhu informed the teacher, she pointed in a direction for him.

Teacher Lu turned to look and, good lord, the entire row in the back was filled with people from Guoxie, a bunch from General Surgery Department Two.

"Teacher Lu." Gao Zhaocheng grinned at the teacher.

Seeing Shen Jinghui sitting among them, Teacher Lu asked, "What are you doing here?"

"I’m here to support my colleagues," Shen Jinghui responded.

Teacher Lu sat down and whispered in Kang Mingzhu’s ear, "Why is he here?" For a department head to show support for Hepatobiliary Surgery, it could only mean there might be some deal going on between Shen Jinghui and Director Tang.

Kang Mingzhu didn’t see it that way and told the teacher, "Senior Cao came to support us, too."

"Can it be the same?" Teacher Lu said, she was clear that Cao Yong was accompanying her.

It seemed that Teacher Lu was unaware of how anxious everyone in the hospital was about the teacher’s illness. It was good that the teacher hadn’t noticed; it would spare her the pressure.

"He’s here to see our junior sister." Kang Mingzhu had a quick-witted idea and jokingly brought up Junior Xie Wanying to defuse the situation, "Junior Xie Wanying used to be a student in General Surgery Department Two. Dr. Tan was Yingying’s instructor before, and he’s here too."

Catching sight of Tan Kelin’s poker face, Teacher Lu seemed to accept her explanation, but when she turned her head again, she suddenly noticed someone in the back she didn’t recognize but who might be from Guoxie, asking, "Is that person also here to see your junior sister?"

Don’t think Teacher Lu’s vision is blurry because of her age; in fact, her eyesight is extremely good. Kang Mingzhu turned around at the teacher’s comment and was surprised to see Nie Jiamin and Luo Jingming sitting in a corner: Now it was hard to explain. They might truly be there specifically to see the junior sister.

Witnessing her speechless expression, a smile crept up the corners of Teacher Lu’s mouth, and she turned to tease Cao Yong, "What do you think? Someone might be taken away."

Everyone wants to see the girl you like, Cao Yong, what are you thinking?

Cao Yong folded his hands across his knees, his face calm. His previously cute dimples disappeared, his eyes, under the dim light, seemed to have a touch of gloom.

Hearing and seeing all this, it’d be odd if he was happy.

It has nothing to do with whether he likes her or not, but it has a lot to do with which department she belongs to in the future.

Teacher Lu, like a curious child, would look around whenever she had a free moment. Listening to her grandson Zhang Shuping say, "Grandma, it seems like a lot of teachers from our school have come."

Beidu and Guoxie have always had a strong competitive relationship.
