Chapter 126 Ouyang Suiping's Teacher
In the end, Su Nuannuan called Chu Mingzhou over, and together they moved the canned fruit away.

When it was late at night, Su Nuannuan opened the textbook she had borrowed from Chu Mingzhou during the day.

Su Nuannuan opened a book on medicinal botany and was surprised to find that it looked brand new. Even the handwriting inside was just tiny sketches.

Upon seeing this, Su Nuannuan was truly stunned.

She had assumed that someone as academically gifted as Chu Mingzhou would have textbooks filled with notes. However, to her surprise, they were completely empty.

Upon seeing this book, Su Nuannuan felt that this new one was almost identical to the original.

Thinking back to when Chu Mingzhou was a junior in college, he had already completed independent experiments in the lab. He didn't seem like the type to just go through the motions in class.

What Su Nuannuan didn't know was that Chu Mingzhou wasn't actually like that. He just had an exceptionally good memory; he could memorize everything the teacher said on the spot. In other words, he had a photographic memory.

After borrowing the textbooks, Su Nuannuan found Ouyang Suiping's office.

"Teacher Ouyang, I have found the textbook."

Ouyang Suiping nodded, then stood up and said to Su Nuannuan.

"I'll take you to meet the professor who teaches Chinese medicine preparation in a little while. You'll attend classes according to her schedule this semester."

Su Nuannuan followed beside Ouyang Suiping and said softly.

"Okay, Teacher Ouyang."

The two didn't go far, only to the next room. The door was open, and Su Nuannuan and Ouyang Suiping could see the teacher inside the office from the doorway.

At this moment, there was only one woman with short, graying hair in the office. She looked somewhat serious, especially when she was working diligently; her eyes were fixed on her target like an eagle's.

Ouyang Suiping did not go in, but stood at the door and knocked.

The middle-aged woman heard the knocking, but without looking up, she spoke.

"Enter."

Su Nuannuan was somewhat surprised when she saw this. Judging from Teacher Ouyang's expression, he seemed to have great respect for the middle-aged woman inside.

However, as far as Su Nuannuan knew, a teacher specializing in traditional Chinese medicine preparation wouldn't command such respect from Ouyang Suiping. Could the person inside have some identity she didn't know about?

Su Nuannuan was puzzled. However, she still followed Ouyang Suiping inside.

However, to Su Nuannuan's surprise, when the woman saw that the person who came was Ouyang Suiping, a smile actually appeared on her originally serious face.

"How come our teacher Ouyang has time to come see an old man like me?"

Looking directly at the woman, Su Nuannuan could clearly see the wrinkles on her face, indicating that she was not young. The next moment, Ouyang Suiping's address confirmed Su Nuannuan's guess.

It was uncharacteristic of the usually composed Ouyang Suiping to show an embarrassed expression when he saw the woman.

"Teacher, please stop teasing me."

Su Nuannuan was somewhat surprised. The woman in front of her was actually Teacher Ouyang's teacher. Wouldn't that mean she was her grandmaster?
The woman stopped teasing Ouyang Suiping and, as if she had changed her expression, asked him seriously.

"What do you want with me?"

Ouyang Suiping seemed to be used to the changes in women's expressions, and his facial expression remained unchanged. He turned around to reveal Su Nuannuan behind him.

"Teacher, this is my student. She will be minoring in Traditional Chinese Medicine preparation next semester. I wanted to bring her here in advance to familiarize her with the subject."

Hearing Ouyang Suiping's words, the woman nodded. This wasn't the first time Ouyang Suiping had troubled her like this; she was already used to it.

At this moment, Ouyang Suiping took the initiative to explain women to Su Nuannuan.

"Su Nuannuan, this is Teacher Mingyue, who is in charge of the Traditional Chinese Medicine Production major. You will follow her instructions for your courses in Traditional Chinese Medicine Production. Teacher, I'm entrusting Su Nuannuan to you."

After introducing the two, Ouyang Suiping said goodbye to Mingyue and left. Clearly, Ouyang Suiping had already informed Mingyue beforehand.

When alone with Mingyue, Su Nuannuan took a step forward and said to her.

"Hello, Teacher Mingyue. My name is Su Nuannuan, and I'm a freshman majoring in clinical medicine this year." Mingyue looked directly at Su Nuannuan as she spoke.

"Clinical medicine courses are not easy. Can you handle the courses in traditional Chinese medicine preparation?"

Su Nuannuan knew it was time for her to make her stance clear.

"Teacher Mingyue, don't worry. I will persevere."

Upon hearing Su Nuannuan's words, Mingyue simply waved her hand and said...

"No need, your teacher has already told me in advance. If you can't stick with it, it's best to tell me beforehand to avoid wasting time."

Mingyue's words were somewhat impolite, but Su Nuannuan didn't hear any malice directed at her.

Su Nuannuan guessed correctly; Mingyue indeed meant her no harm. She simply saw her as a student with some talent but an arrogant attitude, someone whose former student had come to ask her to tutor other students for a while.

She knew why Ouyang Suiping had sent Su Nuannuan, and she understood his good intentions. That's why Mingyue didn't refuse.

"I heard from your teacher that you'll start taking classes in Traditional Chinese Medicine preparation next week?"

Su Nuannuan nodded and said.

"Yes, Teacher Mingyue."

Upon hearing Su Nuannuan's reply, Mingyue tore a piece of paper from a notebook and handed it to Su Nuannuan.

"This is the course schedule for the Traditional Chinese Medicine Production major. Just follow the schedule on it to attend classes."

Su Nuannuan carefully browsed through the course schedule and breathed a sigh of relief when she found that there were no overlaps with the clinical medicine courses. Then, she said to Mingyue...

"Okay, teacher."

After the two chatted for a while, Mingyue told Su Nuannuan to go back.

Mingyue didn't intend to chat with Su Nuannuan much, as she felt that Su Nuannuan wouldn't stay in the traditional Chinese medicine production major for long.

Su Nuannuan returned to her dormitory and told her three roommates that she would be attending a class on traditional Chinese medicine production next week.

Hong Xiu didn't show much surprise because she already knew that Su Nuannuan wanted to minor in a certain field.

However, Zhou Menglu and Sun Xiuhua were quite shocked. The former had no idea about this at all, while the latter was simply surprised that Su Nuannuan wanted to minor in traditional Chinese medicine production.

Zhou Menglu was the first to burst out in a loud voice.

"Su Nuannuan, did you bribe the school? How did they let you study an extra major?"

Su Nuannuan rolled her eyes at Zhou Menglu.

"Dummy, this is a minor offered by the school next semester. Students need to apply to their advisors individually."

Zhou Menglu widened her eyes and then looked at Su Nuannuan.

"Oh, I see. Then can I minor in another subject?"

As soon as Zhou Menglu finished speaking, she excitedly wanted to discuss with Su Nuannuan which major would be suitable for her to minor in.

Seeing that things were getting out of control, Su Nuannuan quickly stopped Zhou Menglu.

I explained to her the downsides of minoring in a different field, emphasizing the word 'tiring'. Hong Xiu and Sun Xiuhua also chimed in, discouraging Zhou Menglu from pursuing another minor.

Aside from Zhou Menglu, everyone knew that minoring in another major was completely unnecessary for some people from wealthy families. Zhou Mengli happened to be one of those people.

Moreover, Zhou Menglu already struggled with her studies. If this worsens her academic performance, she might fail her final exams.

If you fail a course, you won't get your diploma.
