Chapter 974: 974: Illegimate Child
“Professor Lu, I do have ways to contact Dr J but you should know that the Lawrence Institute is a research center for most medications, and they have their own system.”
When Professor Lu heard what she said, the hope in his eyes disappeared and he was about to change to another topic. Since Ling Siqi only got the opportunity by begging staff at the institute, this would make it difficult for her as well.
However, she suddenly said, “But I know Dr J personally. I won’t be able to give you her contact info, because she might feel a little awkward and would definitely reject helping you. Why don’t you give me some time and I’ll check with her? I’ll see if she has time for the surgery for your mother?”
Professor Lu was absolutely delighted and quickly asked, “Are- Are you sure?”
“Of course,” Ling Siqi smiled as she nodded her head.
“Thank you so much! I don’t even know what to say now. Would it be too troublesome for you? Since your child just finished surgery with her?”
“It won’t be a problem. Professor Lu, don’t worry about it. You’ve given me so much help these years, and I absolutely appreciate it. I’ll let you know once I get a reply from her.”
“Sure! Of course! Thank you so much!”
“You’re welcome.”
After a brief conversation with Professor Lu, she went to get the card for her room.”
“Siqi.”
A huge crowd was in the room, as most of them needed time to fill in their personal information. Ling Siqi suddenly heard her name being called and saw Wang Qining when she turned around.
That’s when Ling Siqi’s face turned dark.
Wang Qining…
The girl who used to be her best friend, the person who she trusted most. She was also the one who trapped her and almost ruined her life.
Ling Siqi was aware that she would be here, but she didn’t want to meet her.
After seeing who it was, Ling Siqi continued filling out her information, not wanting to speak to Wang Qining.
Wang Qining noticed that there were lots of people staring at her, and she knew that they were still judging her from the incident earlier. She felt defeated but soon came up with a plan. Since she represented Country Z, she spoke fluently in the language used in Country Y to the committee regarding the room arrangement.
Since she was speaking in Language Y, most of them could understand her.
Wang Siqi, who had agreed with the arrangement earlier, suddenly asked, “There is a student from our school who has a child, and her child is sick. Would you be able to arrange a separate room for her?”
Ling Siqi suddenly felt mindblown as she stared at Wang Qining in rage.
“I’m sorry. We have already confirmed the number of participants in each country and have made the appropriate arrangements. There are no other available rooms in the hotel now. Did she bring her child along? Would there be anyone who can perhaps bring the child to another hotel?”
Ling Siqi was about to open her mouth, but Wang Qining beat her to it.
“No. The child is born out of wedlock and he doesn’t have a father. His grandparents have disowned her as well. So, she’s the only person that the child has.”
As she was done, people around them started gossiping again.
‘Damn, it’s a shame that this is an academic competition and a person’s character is not taken into account. Otherwise, why would a woman like her be allowed to join?’
‘That’s true, but take it with a pinch of salt. This woman is so mean. She might just be doing it to divert attention.’
Everyone had the same thought as well.
Wang Qining was speechless, feeling furious.
No matter if it was back at home, public, or even in school, she always got what she wanted. Not every daughter of a rich family would be smart enough to be a student at Qing Da, which was why her family always pampered her.
