Triplets: Daddy, Please Pamper Us Lightly
Chapter 109 - 109 108 Big Brother Rivalry_1

Chapter 109: Chapter 108: Big Brother Rivalry_1 Chapter 109: Chapter 108: Big Brother Rivalry_1 Ling Yan hadn’t expected Professor Charles to call her at this moment, it took her a moment of contemplation before she picked up the call.

Upon getting through, Charles’s voice came through immediately: “Ling, are you okay lately? I have just completed a new medical experiment, and there are some issues I would like to consult you about!”

Old He, standing near Ling Yan, grew anxious when he heard that Charles intended to poach his valuable colleague. He grabbed the phone and roared at Charles, “Charles you crazy old man! You stole a promising student from me over a decade ago. Are you planning to snatch Dr. Xiaoyan from me? I tell you now, Dr. Xiaoyan is one of us, a citizen of Hua Country! She has the spirit and backbone of our people in her bones – not like that vain ingrate you poached. Don’t think you can buy her over like before!”

Having said that, Old He turned to Ling Yan, “Dr. Xiaoyan, the conference is about to start. We must hurry to enter.”

Ling Yan wasn’t surprised that Old He and Professor Charles knew each other – they were all giants in the medical community and had surely attended diverse academic conferences together. What she found surprising was the hostile relationship between Old He and Charles.

Old He had a loud voice, so even without being on speaker, Charles on the other end had heard him.

“Old He, how’d you end up with Ling? I have very important matters to discuss with Ling right now, don’t cause trouble…”

“Discuss my ass, didn’t you always boast how your surgical skills could save the world? Solve your own problems and don’t disturb our young lady. That’s it, I’m hanging up!”

With his words done, Old He hung up abruptly.

Only upon meeting Ling Yan’s sparkling eyes did he realize that it was her phone he had just hung up.

Old He gave an embarrassed apology, “Dr. Xiaoyan, I’m sorry, I didn’t mean to hang up on your call. That bastard Charles is just too shameless. I didn’t want you to get conned… Would you like to call him back?”

“It’s okay, I can communicate with Professor Charles after the conference is over.”

Ling Yan didn’t know about the feud between Professor Charles and Old He, nor did she want to get involved.

But she had made a promise to Old He, so making Professor Charles wait a little longer wasn’t a big deal.

During the conversation between Ling Yan and Old He, everyone else was in a state of shock, rooted to the spot.

“Mo Yu, didn’t you say that professor Charles was temporarily uncontactable? Then why has she received a call? And aren’t you Professor Charles’s student? Why did he ask her for advice?”

Shi Kelang’s baffled question left Xie Moyu’s face deadly pale.

Seeing her reaction, the others quickly realized what was going on.

Xie Moyu wasn’t Professor Charles’s student at all!

She had been lying to them!

Seeing Xie Moyu egregiously silent and refusing to answer, Shi Kelang thought for a moment before saying, “Oh, I get it now. They must’ve asked someone to pretend to be Dr. Charles to con us. Mo Yu, quick, call Professor Charles and expose their lies…”

“Enough!”

Exposed, Xie Moyu’s face was a grim picture.

If it had only been her pretending to be a student of Professor Charles that came to light, she wouldn’t have felt this terrible.

What she couldn’t accept was the fact that this woman she had looked down upon was the genius in the eyes of Professor Charles!

She felt like she had been slapped hard in the face.

Not wanting her last shred of dignity to be trampled over, with a nary more than a glowering glance at Shi Kelang, Xie Moyu turned around and left in a huff.
