Chapter 153 -152: Research Institute
“Sister Chi, what’s wrong?” Su Niannian noticed that Chi Gui’s expression was off and asked caringly.
Chi Gui put away her phone and glanced apologetically at everyone, “I’m sorry, something urgent came up, and I might not be able to come back this afternoon.”
Before Liu Yawei could respond, the female teacher frowned and spoke, “Is there anything more urgent than your competition right now? You need to understand, this competition belongs to the team. If you don’t put in the effort, you’ll drag everyone else down!”
Chi Gui ignored her and just looked at Liu Yawei.
Liu Yawei nodded, “Then you go, remember to call me if there’s anything.”
Su Niannian, Chu Jia, and Yi Rui also said, “Sister Chi, it’s okay, your matter is important.”
Chi Gui: “Thank you.”
She put away her phone and walked out of the hotel.
At the entrance, a taxi seemed to have been waiting there all along, slowly approached as Chi Gui came out.
Chi Gui got into the car and quickly left.
The female teacher looked speechlessly at Liu Yawei and shook her head, “Mr. Liu, you casually let a student leave during a competition, which is extremely irresponsible. If something happens to her, can you bear the responsibility?”
If it had been before lunch, Liu Yawei would have been a bit worried.
But now…
He chuckled, “No worries, with the protection of the Han Family in Capital City, it would be a miracle if anything happened to her.”
The female teacher glanced again at Su Niannian and the others, seeing that they also seemed unconcerned, she couldn’t help but shake her head.

As for the competition…
On her way back, she had heard from Chi Yan about the general situation of Su Niannian and the others, plus with Chi Gui being so irresponsible, she really didn’t expect them to win any positions.
It was simply a waste of school resources on a trip.
Inside the institute, including Xu Wen, a dozen staff members all obediently lined up, heads bowed, hands nervously clasped in front of them.
Through the glass door, the driver recognized some who were respected as “masters of medicine” outside, now facing Chi Gui, each looking like a schoolchild who had erred.
“What’s going on?” Chi Gui walked up to them, her dark almond-shaped eyes calmly staring at the dozen people, she asked in a deep voice.
Her slender petite figure faced several tall individuals over six feet, yet her presence subdued everyone.
The dozen people looked at each other, none daring to speak first.
Chi Gui’s slender fingers lightly tapped on the table, pointing, “Xu Wen, you speak.”
“Ah? I…” Xu Wen immediately grimaced.
The consequences of this matter were severe, and it was somewhat related to their negligence, hence no one dared to speak.
But having been named by Professor Chi, Xu Wen had no choice but to speak up—
