A few minutes later, a notification for a new email popped up in the inbox.
Cherise lazily curled up on the couch, hugging a pillow. Once she found the most comfortable position, she opened the email.
A resume filled with awards appeared before Cherise. In the top right corner was a passport-style photo.
A youthful and handsome male student was featured, with rosy lips and white teeth, wearing large black-framed glasses, and looking well-behaved and polite.
"Hank Reese, male, 14 years old. Address: Charity Orphanage." When Cherise read the basic info, she unconsciously read these points out loud.
Then she murmured, "Only 14, just a kid. And from an orphanage too. Truly, new talents are always emerging. However, she forgot that she herself had been a young prodigy once.
Next, she continued reading the resume, "First prize in the Clusia Youth Traditional Medicine Skills Competition.
"Gold medal in the Global Youth Clinical Skills Competition. Winner of the special award in the Global Science Skills Innovation Competition. Global Youth Traditional Medicine Talent Grand Slam..."
After reading the resume, Cherise slightly curved her lips, as if she saw the word "expectation" on it. "Interesting. With these titles and at this age, this kid has a very promising future!"
The next day, Cherise arrived at Betrico University as planned. In the classroom, most of the students from the Traditional Medicine Department were already seated.
A student rushed in from outside and shouted, "Yeah, Ms. Leach is finally back to teach! I just saw her in the parking lot. I've missed her so much!"
For the past few days, Crow had been filling in for her classes, and besides Zander and Jean, no one knew why Cherise hadn't been coming to school.
Upon hearing this, everyone banged their desks and hit their chairs to express how much they missed her.
"No offense to Crow, and he's great and very skilled. But his classes are just too funny. I can't help but laugh whenever I see him and can't stay serious. Still, I miss Ms. Leach."
"Me too. I have to pinch my leg to keep a straight face in Crow's classes. He's always flicking that yellow hair of his, and I just can't stay composed.
"Ms. Leach wouldn't do that. I see the word 'knowledge' when I look at her."
The words from these two students made everyone burst into laughter. Suddenly, a student spoke up, "Calm down please." Everyone quieted down, not knowing what was going on, and looked at the person who spoke. It was Calvin, who had just been promoted to vice president of the student council.
Calvin, sitting in his seat, said, "Have you heard? Our Traditional Medicine Department is getting a new student."
After he said that, he patted Zander, who was still reading. "Zander, have you heard?"
Zander shook his head and kept reading, showing no interest in responding. He had heard about it, but he just didn't care.

Calvin continued, "I heard it's a teenage prodigy, especially recommended by the Clusian Academy of Sciences and the Clusian Traditional Medicine Association."
As soon as he said that, everyone exclaimed "Wow!" Even people like Zander and Jean, who were used to big news, stopped what they were doing to listen carefully.
Seeing everyone was interested, Calvin became more animated. I'm in the student council, and I heard about it a few days ago. He's really young-not even an adult yet.
"The school is waiting for Ms. Leach to reply. If everything goes well, she'll be back today, and the new student will come with her."
Without needing to be prompted, everyone was listening eagerly Just when they were deeply engaged, someone shouted, "Ms. Leach is coming!"
And sure enough, just as those words ended, Cherise walked in from outside, wearing a refreshing, light yellow, sleeveless long dress. She was carrying a large stack of new books. When everyone saw her, they immediately stopped paying attention to their lively conversation and focused on her entrance. It was still the same Cherise who always amazed them Lean couldn't help but remark, "Morris really got lucky finding such a beautiful wife. No wonder people say he dislikes
women.
"He probably only dislikes women who aren't as stunning as Cherise! Even I, as a woman, am captivated."
Standing at the podium, Cherise checked in and then said, "I heard the topic you were discussing in the classroom just now.
"There is indeed a new student coming. The folks from the Clusian Traditional Medicine Association are bringing him here. They just called to say they're stuck in traffic, so it might be a little while before they arrive.
"Jasmine, could you and a few classmates start handing out the books, please?
"This book, 'Collection of Complex Cases,' was personally put together by Carson Garcia, my mentor. I've had copies made for everyone; each person gets one. I hope you'll all take a good look at it. Carson's book is concise and straightforward."
Of course, all the students knew about it and couldn't be more excited. Cherise's mentor was one of the founding members and the teacher of Arthur. Roughly speaking, they were also considered Arthur's peers.
Just as the books were being handed out, there was someone knocking at the door. No need student.
Cherise looked over. The student sitting by the door quickly got up to open it.
guess, it must be the new
As soon as the door opened, there stood the three prominent figures everyone recognized. These three figures were Trent, president of Betrico University, Yancy, president of the Academy of Sciences, and Edmund, president of the Traditional Medicine Association. Seeing these three prominent figures, many students were surprised and widened their eyes. They were familiar with Trent, and the other two were also well-known figures.
Together, these three elders were the leading figures in Clusia's intellectual community.NôvelD(ram)a.ôrg owns this content.
Such a gathering was only seen at major cultural exchanges or high-level meetings in Clusia.
They had a bold idea and thought, 'Could they be here for the new student? So, who exactly is this new student?'
