Chapter 1074 - 1074: Blinded By Jealousy.
"Sha Xian, don't listen to him. He is just joking around." The female colleague comforted Su Sha Xian.
"It's nothing. I am okay. I want to go to the ladies." Su Sha Xian smiled weakly as she walked to the toilet.
She needed to cool down. She was an independent woman. She did not need a man to stay alive. But still, it stung when someone whom you like did not like you back.
Yu Qi was the third person in the line to give her presentation about the surgical technique that she wanted to introduce to the world. When her turn came, she calmly got on the stage, preparing the slides for her presentation.
Once she started, everyone paid attention to what she was saying. Everyone who attended this medical conference had a certain degree of knowledge about what Yu Qi had been talking about.
"This is the few short videos of the surgical technique that I am introducing to you." Yu Qi said as she played the video.
"This patient suffered from a bad car accident. Normally her leg could be saved. However, by using this surgical technique, not even her legs, she could live a normal life after the incident. This is her progress report."
A lot of people wanted to know more about that surgical technique. So, they had a lot of questions to ask. However, due to the time limit, Yu Qi needed to step down from the stage.
"You may ask me in the booth later. Thank you for your time." Yu Qi ended her presentation.
Yu Qi stepped down from the stage. The next presentation went up. Everyone was very interested in the knowledge and wanted to share it. So, Yu Qi did not think it was a boring session.
The conference stopped for some time. It would continue after lunch. So, Yu Qi and Pei Ruiying returned to their booth. When she returned, she saw that a lot of people were already waiting for her.
As soon as they saw Yu Qi, they stormed Yu Qi with a lot of questions. Yu Qi calmly answered their questions one by one. Seeing his colleague was still surrounded by the people, he stepped in to help her.
"Everyone, if you have any more questions, you can ask later. It is lunchtime. I hope you can give Doctor Tang some time to eat." Pei Ruiying said.
Everyone finally calmed down after listening to what Pei Ruiying said and gave some space to Yu Qi.
"Doctor Tang, I hope we can talk about this matter again." A man said.
"Sure. However, I want to watch other presentations too." Yu Qi said.
"Okay... Okay... Let's continue after other presentations."
"You seem used to this kind of situation. Have you gone to a lot of medical conferences before?" Pei Ruiying asked.
"Well, yes. I have." Yu Qi nodded.
From far, there were two pairs of eyes watching them together. It was Su Sha Xian and her friend, Cindy.
"Ruiying looks so gentle when talking to her." Su Sha Xian said in a jealous tone.
"Don't fall into the misunderstanding so fast. You should ask them first." Cindy understood that people in love were usually blinded by jealousy.
Cindy saw Pei Ruiying acting pretty normal with that woman. They probably just talked about their work.
"How about you ask them for lunch?" Cindy suggested.
"Do you think Ruiying will join us?" Su Sha Xian asked in concern.
"I don't know. Probably yes." Cindy did not know what was in Pei Ruiying's mind. So, of course, she did not know that.
Su Sha Xian thought she should try. She walked towards those two. Cindy followed from behind.
"Ruiying, do you mind joining us for lunch?" Su Sha Xian asked and invited Pei Ruiying.
Pei Ruiying did not answer right away. He was not alone. He needed to ask about Yu Qi's opinion too.
"Doctor Yu Qi, do you mind?" Pei Ruiying asked.
"No, let's have lunch together." Yu Qi answered.
Su Sha Xian smiled when Pei Ruiying agreed to have lunch together. Yu Qi did not say much. Yu Qi could feel that Su Sha Xian was interested in Pei Ruiying even if Pei Ruiying's friends did not say anything yesterday.
They were having lunch at the hotel restaurant. It was near and easy to access. Most of the customers in the hotel restaurant were from the conference.
"How is your life, Ruiying?" Su Sha Xian asked.
"It is normal." Pei Ruiying answered short.
The conversation ended there. Cindy sighed. Pei Ruiying was the same as before. Cold and silent. Even the woman beside him also had the same personality.
"You must be happy to return to your birth country." Cindy stroked the conversation.
"It is better than other countries." Pei Ruiying was indeed happy to return to his birth country.
"Well, what if you get married to someone who belongs to a place other than your country, where do you want to live?" Cindy asked indirectly.
"I have not thought about it for now." Pei Ruiying replied.
"What about you, Doctor Tang?" Su Sha Xian asked.
"Of course, the birth country is better." Yu Qi knew from her experience.
Since her biological grandfather was from Fanghai Nation, she moved to that country after Grandpa Mu found her. It was so hard to adjust to living there. That was why she asked his grandfather's permission to study at Binhai Nation first.
The topic ended there. They then talked about today's conference. Because there were a lot of interesting topics, they did not feel bored at all.
