Chapter 136: Smash Her Face

Taking a deep breath silently in her heart, Lu Miao thought, “Forget it, it’s just
Grandma Gu causing trouble. It’s not a big deal.”
She stood up. “Everyone go back to your rooms and sleep.”
Gu Ziheng and Gu Jinxi simultaneously cheered and jumped up, running upstairs.
There was no trace of their previous discomfort.
Early the next morning, when Auntie Xiu returned from the market after purchasing groceries and finished preparing breakfast, she stepped out of the kitchen and almost thought she had entered the wrong house when she saw the people in the dining room.
She quickly turned her head to look around, confirming that she was indeed not at the Gu residence.
Lu Miao helplessly said, “Auntie Xiu, you’ll have to make extra food for them from now on.”
“Alright.” Auntie Xiu realized and happily nodded. She immediately turned around and went back to the kitchen to make a few more breakfast portions.
When Lu Miao arrived at school, she noticed that there were many life-sized cardboard cutouts of Lu Siyu in the campus, and people were distributing promotional flyers everywhere. As Lu Miao passed by, someone forcefully handed her one.
“Please support our contestant, Lu Siyu, on the 16th. Support our fellow student. The voting method is provided on the flyer. Please cast your precious vote.”
From the school entrance to the classroom, in just a short distance, Lu Miao was handed over a dozen or so flyers.
When she entered the classroom, almost every student had a pile of flyers on their desks.
Seeing that Lu Miao also had a thick stack in her hand, Su MO directly took them from her and threw them into the trash, saying disdainfully, “They’re going all out with this massive promotion just after one episode of the show has aired. They must have spent a fortune.”
“Why doesn’t she just move the competition to the school if she wants to make such a fuss? Clearly, she was getting trounced by you in school, couldn’t bear the embarrassment, and took a detour to participate in a talent show, trying to portray herself as a top student. It’s ridiculous. The real top students are participating in science competitions next door.”
“Exactly! I think she’s just jealous that our boss stole her limelight.” Another girl beside them chimed in, “Once our boss’s show airs, we’ll crush her face.”
“Boss, when will ‘Super Brain’ air?” Su Mol s eyes gleamed as she looked at Lu Miao.
“I don’t know. It should be soon,” Lu Miao shook her head.
This kind of scientific competition show has stricter requirements in terms of logic and other aspects, so the editing process will likely be more complicated.
Curiously, she took out her phone and searched for the talent show they were talking about.
The first episode had aired last night. Lu Siyu participated at the last minute without much preparation or training. Her singing and dancing performances were just average, at best.
However, the barrage of comments praising her beauty and academic excellence dominated the screen.
Comments like “real top student,” “beauty and intelligence combined,” “talent and elegance in one,” filled the majority of the screen.
The show had just begun, but the marketing campaign was already in full swing. They must have spent a considerable amount of money.
Lu Miao raised her eyebrows slightly. The Lu family was really willing to spend a lot of money on their adopted daughter, Lu Siyu.
The entire day was filled with Lu Siyu’s promotions throughout the school. Even during lunchtime, the school cafeteria’s TV was playing clips from her talent show performance.
The forum was flooded with posts campaigning for her.
Lu Siyu quickly became the center of attention in the school, and all the negative comments and incidents related to her fake identity as a rich girl were overshadowed.
It was as if nothing had ever happened, and the entire school was praising her for bringing glory to the school.
A few students who were previously on good terms with Lu Siyu even arrogantly paraded around their class, almost flaunting themselves in front of Lu Miao.
Lu Miao could not be bothered with their childish behavior. After school in the afternoon, she took a taxi to the hospital.
The follow-up treatment for Shen Muhan depended on his recovery progress.
As soon as she entered the ward, she saw a group of doctors surrounding the bed, completely blocking Shen Muhan from view.
Shen’s parents had happy expressions on their faces but were pushed to the side by the crowd.
“Lu Miao, you’re here.” When Mrs Shen saw her, she immediately went forward and pulled her over excitedly. The crowd dispersed.
“Boss. ”
On the bed, Shen Muhan’s voice was weak as he looked at her with red eyes.
Although he couldn’t move his body yet, he looked quite energetic.
Lu Miao stepped forward and placed her hand on his wrist to check.
His recovery was better than she had expected. She had thought that he would need at least one more acupuncture session before he could wake up.
She also examined the healing process of his wounds.
Seeing Shen Muhan’s hopeful and somewhat fearful gaze, she spoke directly,
“Don’t worry.”
After a few more acupuncture sessions and following the rehabilitation treatment, it shouldn’t take long for him to recover.
Upon hearing Lu Miao’s words, Shen Muhan nodded heavily with red-rimmed eyes.
Dr. Zhang, who was standing beside them, felt somewhat awkvvard and approached. “May I ask, how did you treat Young Master Shen?”
“Boss, ignore him. Don’t think I forgot. When I was still unconscious, my boss performed acupuncture on me. You questioned her and even threatened her,” Shen Muhan glared at him. Despite his weak condition just moments ago, he now had a fierce look in his eyes, as if he was ready to attack at any moment.
Mr and Mrs Shen finally understood why Shen Muhan wanted to scratch someone even before he regained consciousness that day.
It was all because he heard about this!
They couldn’t help but find it both amusing and exasperating. Their son was truly protective and harbored deep animosity toward people who bullied those he cared about.
Dr. Zhang suddenly felt even more embarrassed. He blushed and bowed deeply to Lu Miao. “I sincerely apologize for my previous ignorance and arrogance. I hope you can forgive me.”
“Forgiveness is not necessary. I hope you can genuinely understand traditional Chinese medicine, treat it with the correct objectivity, and make every effort to promote and carry forward the cultural heritage of our country that has accumulated over thousands of years. Don’t underestimate it and assume that it is inferior to Western medicine without even trying to understand it,” Lu Miao calmly remarked.
Upon hearing these words, Dr. Zhang felt even more ashamed. He, a person in his forties, was being outshined by a high school student several years younger than him.
“I will definitely remember these words and remind myself constantly,” he responded.
“These doctors here are all experts in traditional Chinese medicine at our hospital. They would like to learn about your acupuncture methods and treatment approaches, hoping to help more patients in the future.”
Lu Miao was willing to share her knowledge and contribute to the inheritance and promotion of healing through traditional Chinese medicine. She patiently explained and demonstrated her techniques while performing acupuncture on Shen Muhan.
By the time the acupuncture was completed, everyone witnessing the demonstration was in awe of her profound skill in acupuncture.
Especially the experts in traditional Chinese medicine knew that it would take decades of practice to achieve such mastery, yet Lu Miao was only in her teens!
Her future was boundless!
A group of elderly doctors, their hair already turned gray, were excited and eager to become her apprentices. Overwhelmed by their enthusiasm, Lu Miao politely greeted them and left.
As she descended in the elevator and stepped into the hospital lobby, she heard a strange bell sound coming from the entrance..
