"Of course we know. We are Western doctors, so we don't clash with them. That’s why they want to ally with us," Cole said seriously. "To be honest, I don’t like those H-country people. I don’t want their tricks to work, so I told you secretly." Cole looked left and right to make sure no one was watching. "Please don’t tell anyone I said this."
"Of course, Cole. You are our good friend. Huaxia always welcomes you," Gu Jingtian said with a smile, though his eyes grew heavy.
Cole had left to find Old Liu about the tea. After he went, Gu Jingtian looked at Qu Zhong and the other junior disciples. "What do you think? How much can we trust Cole’s information?"
"Whether it’s true or not, we should treat it as true. It’s better to be careful," Qu Zhong said after a brief pause.
"I agree," Gu Jingtian nodded slightly. "The fog is getting thicker. This international medical exchange conference is clearly not simple. We must be cautious."
The six senior and junior disciples could only plan to defend themselves for now. They didn’t know what tricks the other side would use, so caution was the best policy.
Zhu Yanyi waited for her senior brothers and sisters to finish eating. She looked around casually and saw a rose on the table. She picked it up. It was cut, but it was a real flower. Zhu Yanyi raised an eyebrow, wondering how much life force remained in the cut rose. She added a tiny bit of life force to it. The rose gave off a faint aura. Zhu Yanyi’s eyes lit up. Maybe her ability could be useful now. She thought for a moment, then asked Gu Jingtian, "Senior Brother, are the H-country and R-country guests staying at the Foreign Guests Hotel?"
"Many countries came this time. Besides the Foreign Guests Hotel, some are staying at the Tian City Government Hotel," Gu Jingtian answered seriously. He didn’t answer directly, but he gave the answer.
"Okay, I understand," Zhu Yanyi smiled slightly. She didn’t say more. When everyone finished eating and walked out of the restaurant, Zhu Yanyi said to Zhang Yan, "Sister Zhang, I really like the roses here. Ask the boss where she bought them, and please buy some for me."
"Okay." Zhang Yan nodded. Although she didn’t know what Zhu Yanyi wanted to do, she knew Zhu Yanyi had a reason. So she went to do it without hesitation.
"Junior Sister actually likes roses?" Dong Bocao laughed. "Typical girl feelings."
"What does a rose have to do with girl feelings? You monster Senior Brother, don’t pretend I can’t read," Zhu Yanyi said, rolling her eyes.
Dong Bocao raised an eyebrow. "Don’t you know roses are the flower of love?"
"Not necessarily," Zhu Yanyi said with a faint smile. "I only remember that in ancient Huaxia, roses symbolized assassins. They are called the flower of love because of Western Greek mythology. It was said to be the incarnation of the beauty god, mixed with the blood of the love god. That’s why it represents love and beauty. But for me, roses are just medicine to help the lungs, calm the mind, strengthen the spleen, open the appetite, and help water flow. I’m not as romantic as you, Monster Senior Brother."
Dong Bocao paused. "Junior Sister, you are not cute like this. You ruined the romance of the rose. How can I be romantic now?"
