Chapter 863: The Funds Have Been Settled!
Yan Aohan glanced in the direction, then said, "Go." He quickly began to cross the jungle. Luo Gang and Li Yang followed Yan Aohan through the dense trees.
Another night passed. Just as the sky began to lighten at dawn, Zhu Yanyi woke up. She went for a few laps around the hotel with Zhang Yan, then returned to shower and change clothes. Afterward, she went down to the restaurant for breakfast.
Breakfast was now provided for free, though the variety was not as rich as in later times.
Zhu Yanyi served herself a bowl of white porridge, a small dish of pickled vegetables, a small piece of fermented tofu, an egg, and a fried dough stick. She sat aside to eat. She had only eaten one-third when Gu Jingtian and the others arrived. Zhu Yanyi waved at them, signaling that she was sitting there.
Gu Jingtian and the others brought their breakfast over and sat at the same table as Zhu Yanyi. "Junior Sister, you are up quite early."
"I got up at five, went out for morning exercise, and then came to eat breakfast. You just woke up late," Zhu Yanyi said. She took the fried dough stick, broke off a piece, and took a bite. Then she asked, "By the way, Senior Brother, did you speak with Grandpa Yao on the phone yesterday?"
Gu Jingtian’s hand paused slightly, then he nodded. "It went through. I told Master about your encounter. Master said you should encounter more, so he can use them when we return."
Zhu Yanyi glanced at Gu Jingtian. "Senior Brother, you don’t need to speak so formally. I know Grandpa Yao’s personality. If I have good things, I will definitely tell him. Don’t waste them. Remember to send them to him later so he can taste them." Although Zhu Yanyi never hid what she obtained, she still liked to tease Grandpa Yao when there was a chance.
Gu Jingtian chuckled lightly. "Since you know, why ask me? That is not right."
Qu Zhong, standing nearby, asked Zhu Yanyi, "Junior Sister, are you confident about today’s academic exchange?"
"I don’t even know what they are going to discuss today," Zhu Yanyi said helplessly. "Only if I know their topic can I know if I have a chance."
Zhu Ziming also said from the side, "It is strange. The theme is so mysterious this time. It was never this complicated before."
"Did Fourth Senior Brother participate in an academic exchange before?" Zhu Yanyi asked curiously.
Zhu Ziming nodded slightly. "Five years ago, I accompanied Master to Country S for an exchange. But I was just an observer then. Master handled everything alone. The topics were sent out in advance back then."
"So, something might happen with this exchange theme," Yu Qingyun frowned slightly. "Could this be one of the reasons Master asked us to come here?"
Zhu Yanyi was slightly stunned. A strange feeling rose in her heart. She felt as if something was about to happen.
"Let’s stop guessing. The exchange starts at 8:30 anyway. Let’s finish breakfast and go early. I will try to find out more then," Gu Jingtian said directly. After thinking for a moment, he reminded everyone, "Be careful, very careful."
"Okay." Zhu Yanyi and the others could only think this way now. The matter was right in front of them. They could only face it cautiously. They could not be cowards.
At 8:30, the International Medical Exchange Conference, hosted by Huaxia, began. The person announcing the rules, the host, was Old Liu.
