Reborn as a Mortal Heiress Pampered by Big Shots-Chapter 436 - 285 A performance of one bottle per month~

"Qiaoqiao, this must be your brother."

Academician Li looked at the distinguished man in the wheelchair and approached him solemnly to shake hands.

Shen Zhiqiao had specifically come from the Shen family today; since the Shen Group’s headquarters in the Capital City and the Academy of Sciences were in the same direction, Shen Zhixi naturally came to drop her off.

Shen Zhixi lowered his eyes, appearing noble yet gentle, and reached out to shake hands with Academician Li, "I often hear my little sister mention Academician Li."

The moment their hands touched, Academician Li involuntarily shivered.

Mr. Shen’s hand... why is it so cold?

Without changing his expression, Shen Zhixi withdrew his hand and, after dropping off his sister, prepared to leave.

However, Shen Zhiqiao continued to push his wheelchair toward the direction of the laboratory.

Shen Zhixi furrowed his brows, "Qiaoqiao, what are you really up to?"

Shen Zhiqiao mysteriously replied, "You’ll find out soon."

Last time in the study, Shen Zhiqiao’s words had greatly concerned Shen Zhiqiao; she wanted to change her position in her brother’s eyes and prove to him that she was far superior to Xia Ye.

She didn’t push her brother towards her own laboratory but towards that of Xia Ye.

Seeing this, Academician Li remembered: "Qiaoqiao, today is the day the results of your competition with Xia Ye are revealed, right? How is the little white mouse?"

Hearing it was a competition with Xia Ye, Shen Zhixi’s expression instantly turned stern, "What competition?"

Shen Zhiqiao pursed her lips, her brother’s expression suggesting he had already decided she would lose and blaming her for presumptuously competing with someone she couldn’t surpass.

Shen Zhiqiao, "Brother, it’s just a friendly exchange, over a period of one week, to see whose little white mouse recovers better. Brother, rest assured, my little white mouse has already recovered, and Xia Ye cannot beat me."

Not only had she presumptuously competed with Xia Ye, but the competition was even about medical skills?

Shen Zhixi’s expression grew even colder.

Seeing his disbelief, Shen Zhiqiao produced the cage housing her little white mouse.

Academician Li stepped forward to take a look.

After a week of her treatment, her little white mouse indeed looked very spirited, currently holding pet mouse food with its lean little paws, eating frantically; whenever there was a noise around, its head would move back and forth attentively, displaying a lively demeanor.

Meanwhile, on Xia Ye’s side.

She lifted the black-out cloth, and the researchers were instantly dazzled by the shiny cage, unable to open their eyes.

Their first reaction was, damn, this cage is luxurious.

This was no ordinary mouse; it was like a golden canary pampered by a powerful female boss!

At this moment, the green slop around the mouse’s mouth had been cleaned, and the Silver Needles on its head had been removed, it lay extremely comfortably on the big round bed in the center of the cage.

The contrasted starkly with the misery Shen Zhiqiao had seen in the photos before.

Huang Yan looked at Xia Ye with a complex expression, "Junior Sister, the Silver Needles that were on its head before... "

"Oh," Xia Ye said lightly, "That was acupuncture."

Huang Yan remembered, it was said that when Old Lady Jiang had fainted, Xia Ye had also cured her with acupuncture...

Previously, he had doubted his junior sister’s character based on just one photograph and others’ words, and now, feeling increasingly ashamed.

The researchers observed the little white mouse for a long while; first, it was still alive, and second, it seemed to have gotten fatter!

However, its breathing was steady while sleeping, unlike its pained expression right after the experiment.

It seemed to be much better.

Just as everyone was about to let out a sigh of relief, Ji Xiaomin returned with a light step from outside.

When she had just gone out, she had seen Shen Zhiqiao’s little white mouse: "Junior Sister, I just saw your senior sister’s little white mouse, prepare yourself mentally, hers has also recovered, and it’s... more lively than ours."

Xia Ye glanced at the worried Ji Xiaomin and smiled nonchalantly, "Who says being lively means winning? I think she’ll lose... "

Confidence is good, but...

The other researchers also noticed that Xia Ye’s little white mouse had been sleeping ever since it arrived at the laboratory.

Fat and lazy.

It seemed Xia Ye’s medical skills were indeed profound, but perhaps not as much as her senior sister’s.

But to have healed to this extent was still impressive; they couldn’t be too harsh on their junior sister.

Huang Yan this time remained silent, gazing at the little white mouse in Xia Ye’s cage, lost in thought...

**

Treating mice with central nervous system injuries was also a very meaningful experimental topic.

Academician Fu and Academician Li hit it off immediately and decided to postpone the morning’s experimental class.

The two groups combined, taking the competition between Shen Zhiqiao and Xia Ye as a case study, and discussed issues related to central nervous system injuries.
