Chapter 966: Chapter 966: Reunited, Wu Wanying Is Done (1)

“It has already been packaged and sent to your personal email,” Lin Qingchen nodded. “I just saw on the news that there was an earthquake in Eastern Mulberry. Is Miss Si and the others okay?”

“They should be physically fine,” Cai Zhongnian replied. “But whether they have any psychological trauma is hard to say.”

Lin Qingchen was taken aback. “What?”

Cai Zhongnian sighed heavily. “All these medical students, starting to discuss supernatural matters.”

Lin Qingchen pondered for a moment. “At the end of science, there is mysticism. Have you forgotten that one of your classmates took up theology in his later years?”

Cai Zhongnian was momentarily speechless.

With an irritated wave, he shooed Lin Qingchen out of the room, then sat down in front of his computer to review the final drafts of the thesis papers in his email.

He first skimmed through the titles of each paper, confirming the research direction of each student.

When he saw a paper related to cell transplantation and genetic engineering, he clicked to read it.

Initially, Cai Zhongnian thought the paper had a promising start and a novel approach. H

owever, when he reached the critical formulas and theories, his expression changed.

The field of medicine is limited, with only a few research directions. Having similar starting points is inevitable.

But he remembered these particular formulas and theories very clearly—they were written by Si Fuqing.

Cai Zhongnian flipped to the cover page of the paper and, upon seeing the name “Wu Wanying,” he slammed the table with a loud “bang.”

His assistant jumped in fright. “Elder Cai, are you okay?”

Cai Zhongnian, face darkened, commanded, “Prepare the car. We’re heading to Great Xia University immediately.”

**

Great Xia University.

In the medical department’s graduate building, the mentors had also seen the news about the earthquake in Eastern Mulberry online. Knowing that Professor Xiang had taken the graduate students to Mount Akahara, they anxiously tried to contact their students.

Professor Li was particularly frantic because he hadn’t been able to reach Wu Wanying.

As he was about to make another call, the office door was pushed open with a bang.

Professor Li was startled. “Elder Cai?”

It was only 8:30 in the morning. What could have brought Cai Zhongnian here so quickly?

Cai Zhongnian spoke calmly, “Professor Li, you have mentored an excellent student.”

Professor Li felt a pang of unease, sensing something was wrong. He cautiously asked, “Elder Cai, what do you mean?”

“After all these years of being a graduate advisor, you applied to be a doctoral advisor last year,” Cai Zhongnian said coldly. “Do you understand the seriousness of plagiarism in academic papers?”

This made Professor Li’s scalp tingle, and he felt a chill run down his spine. “Elder Cai, of course, I understand. I assure you, I would never condone such behavior!”

Cai Zhongnian’s tone softened slightly. “I’m just reminding you. One might be ignorant in academia, but fabrications are unacceptable.”

It seemed Professor Li was unaware; it was likely Wu Wanying’s doing alone.

If both mentor and student were complicit in fraud, it would be disastrous.

“I understand, Professor Cai,” Professor Li quickly responded. “Fabrication must be severely condemned! If anyone is found guilty of it, their degree should be revoked, and they should be expelled from Great Xia University. Please trust in Great Xia University’s academic integrity.”

“I have seen some promising students this time, especially your student, Wu Wanying. Her paper is quite impressive,” Cai Zhongnian smiled slightly, though his eyes were sharp. “I look forward to her performance in the defense.”

Professor Li felt a renewed sense of unease. “It is an honor for Wanying to have caught your eye. Her idea is indeed innovative. I have already filed a patent for her, though it hasn’t been approved yet.”

Cai Zhongnian responded with a faint “hmm.” “I take this graduate defense seriously. I will propose to the International Medical Organization to have them come and observe as well.”

Professor Li was surprised. “The International Medical Organization?”

“Yes, didn’t you know? They have been researching this area for the past two years,” Cai Zhongnian said meaningfully. “If she solves the problems they’ve been facing, she might be recruited by them.”

Professor Li’s expression became solemn. “I will make sure to remind Wanying. Thank you, Professor Cai.”

Cai Zhongnian nodded. “Good, make sure she is well-prepared. I have other matters to attend to, so I’ll be leaving now.”

As he turned to leave, he let out a cold laugh.

Did she really think that copying a few formulas and theories would enable her to grasp the entire research direction? He was eager to see how Wu Wanying would explain herself.

If she dared to plagiarize and refused to admit it, she had better be ready to face the consequences!
