Gu Jia Ning raised an eyebrow. "So principled?"
"Fine."
Gu Jia Ning smiled. "Officer Sheng, I'll remember your words."
"They say, 'birds of a feather flock together.' Officer Sheng, Grandmother and I have some things to attend to outside, so we won't be entertaining you." Gu Jia Ning was not afraid of him because of his officer status.
Anyway, she hadn't committed any crimes. As for Sheng Xin Hao trying to get her?
With the Childbirth System in hand, who was she afraid of?
These people dared to bully her at her own door. Should she still yield? Sometimes, one must stand their ground.
Since Gu Jia Ning had said so, Sheng Xin Hao naturally wouldn't stay any longer.
He simply coldly snorted and left.
"Ning girl, don't take his words to heart," Grandmother Sang comforted Gu Jia Ning after Sheng Xin Hao left.
"Grandmother, don't worry, I won't take them to heart."
"That's good."
"Then let's go to Beijing City Middle School now. The lecture time is almost up."
"Okay."
So, the two people got into the car and headed towards Beijing City Middle School.
Meanwhile, Sheng Xin Hao went home in a rage. Meanwhile, Fang Wanrong was about to go out to Beijing City Middle School to invite Doctor Gu back to treat Sheng Xin Hao's arm injury.
Although Sheng Xin Hao was angry, he wouldn't take it out on Fang Wanrong.
"Alright, go ahead. You've worked hard." When his arm is healed, he'll settle the score with that brat and that audacious country girl.

Meanwhile, when Gu Jia Ning and Grandmother Sang arrived at Beijing City Middle School, many people were already there.
They were doctors from all over the country, all eager to hear Gu Jia Ning's lecture on how to treat tuberculosis.
There were so many people today that even the hall was full, yet there were still many standing.
Almost everyone had brought a pen and notebook to take notes.
As soon as Gu Jia Ning entered the hall, she felt the strong atmosphere of learning. Looking down, she saw that in almost everyone's eyes burned expectation and fervor.
Gu Jia Ning thought, this might be the meaning of this lecture.
"Let's welcome the host of this lecture, Doctor Gu Jia Ning! Please, Doctor Gu, to explain to us the knowledge and solutions for the treatment of tuberculosis."
Accompanied by the welcome speech, Gu Jia Ning walked onto the stage amidst warm applause and began her lecture.
Every single person's eyes were filled with a thirst for knowledge. When Gu Jia Ning started speaking, even though there were so many people, the hall was very quiet, except for Gu Jia Ning's voice and the sound of their pens scribbling on their notebooks.
Fang Wanrong saw this scene when she arrived.
Looking at the young and beautiful woman on stage, Fang Wanrong marveled at the young female doctor's age.
She originally thought that a doctor with such great skills would be very old, but unexpectedly…
Truly, you can't judge a book by its cover.
The lecture was still in progress, so Fang Wanrong naturally couldn't disturb it.
She could only wait until the lecture ended before looking for Doctor Gu.
However…
Fang Wanrong scanned the surroundings and couldn't find a place to sit.
Could it be that she would have to stand and wait the entire time?
Thinking of this, Fang Wanrong's expression became slightly unpleasant.
But she still held back.
To ask for a seat, using her status as Mrs. Sheng, she couldn't bring herself to do it.
Since that's the case, she would just stand.
After inviting Doctor Gu, she would go back and tell Old Sheng.
Old Sheng would surely feel sorry for her.
Then she would take the opportunity to mention the matter of the old house's property rights.
Fang Wanrong had been eyeing the Sheng family's old house property for a long time, and she hoped this time she could coax Old Sheng into transferring the property to her.
Thinking this, Fang Wanrong felt that even if she stood for a long time and waited for a long time, it would be worth it.
At that moment, Fang Wanrong scanned her surroundings and suddenly noticed a familiar person.
Wasn't that Master Li Tingxuan, the eldest son of the Li family?
Why was he here?
Could it be that he also wanted to invite Doctor Gu?
Fang Wanrong was not mistaken.
Li Tingxuan was indeed there.
He arrived a little late and could only stand in a corner.
However, his complexion wasn't good. He had a fever since last night, and even though it had subsided, he was still pale and listless.
But upon hearing that it was Gu Jia Ning's lecture today, he still came.
Today, his grandfather didn't want him to go out, wanting him to stay home and recover.
Li Tingxuan agreed, but after his grandfather left, he secretly went out.
Li Tingxuan's gaze fell intently on the person on stage, his eyes filled with tenderness and affection.
But within that affection, there was a hint of bitterness.
After returning home yesterday, he had people investigate Gu Jia Ning and her husband, and this morning, most of the information had been gathered.
It turned out that her husband was Sheng Ze Xi.
Li Tingxuan knew who Sheng Ze Xi was.
He was from another compound, a man with a somewhat unruly personality but very outstanding.
He was Officer Sheng's son.
Now he was a Deputy Commander in the Northwest Military Region.
Although not as high as his current rank of Commander.
But Li Tingxuan knew that Sheng Ze Xi was very outstanding, with numerous military achievements, and had been the Military King for several consecutive years. His current future was entirely earned through his own hard work.
If he hadn't been suppressed by Officer Sheng before, Sheng Ze Xi would definitely not just be a Deputy Commander now.
And Sheng Ze Xi personally went to Huaihua Village, Gu Jia Ning's hometown, to her home, to propose marriage.
Although Officer Sheng didn't approve, Grandmother and Grandfather Sang did, and they liked Gu Jia Ning very much.
And Gu Jia Ning…
was also very outstanding.
After joining the army, she quickly became a doctor at the Northwest Military Region Hospital. Because of her performance, she was awarded honors and was even accepted as a disciple by Elder Chen.
Now she was giving a lecture in Beijing, sharing her knowledge on how to treat tuberculosis with doctors from all over the country.
And her reason for coming to Beijing this time was twofold: to pay respects at her mother-in-law's memorial service and to treat Hua Zhenrong.
Li Tingxuan knew about the relationship between Sheng Ze Xi and Hua Zhenrong.
From the information he gathered, Sheng Ze Xi was very outstanding, she was also very outstanding, their relationship was very good, and now she was pregnant with Sheng Ze Xi's child, twins.
They seemed to be very happy.
Li Tingxuan knew that he was ultimately too late.
In his dreams, in his previous life, he was many steps too late, and in this life, he was still too late.
Li Tingxuan thought, perhaps this was fate.
Fate had decreed that he and she had no destined connection.
Li Tingxuan knew that, given this, he shouldn't get involved.
Actually, he hadn't intended to get involved.
He told himself that since there was no fate, then let it go.
But…
Looking at her on stage, so confident, so radiant, so beautiful, Li Tingxuan smiled bitterly.
He knew he couldn't let go.
Since that's the case, then don't let go. Keep her in his heart, only he would know.
He would carefully hide his affection, not letting anyone know, and… not letting her know.
Just like this, watching her happiness and joy from afar would be enough.
