Naturally, Sun Yan was talking about the fundraiser she organised for Jing Yun Zhao.

  However, in actuality, she only heard about Jing Yun Zhao coincidentally, and the one who raised the matter about Jing Yun Zhao was Ji Shan Shan.

  At that time, Ji Shan Shan was emotionally influenced by the matter online, and she got her parents to donate some medicine to Jing Yun Zhao, and later on she found Cui Jun and wouldn’t stop telling Cui Jun about how pitiful Jing Yun Zhao was. As a result, Cui Jun was very annoyed and found Sun Yan to complain to.

  At first, she too didn’t care about Jing Yun Zhao, as Jing Yun Zhao was someone irrelevant. However, coincidentally after a few days passed, her school’s forum was holding a competition for the ‘Most Influential Person of The Year’ award, and although the chosen winner wouldn’t receive any monetary awards, the winner would be invited to a high-end establishment.

  Although it was only a school event that was organised by a few rich second-generation students, she could still use this chance to network with some people in high society and to see how these people enjoy their daily life. She wanted to do so because although she wasn’t lacking when it came to clothing and food in the Cui Family, she was still considered beneath them, and although the Cui Family had money, they couldn’t compete with other businessmen.

  However, to win this competition, one must be unique to stand out. After all, the school was filled with countless beauties of all types, and to compete in that same category would be a hard battle to win.

  It was at that moment, she reached an epiphany and thought of a method to win, which was to organise a fundraiser for Jing Yun Zhao, creating an image of benevolence for herself.

  At the time, she used many ways to raise awareness towards the issue, adding onto the fact that the issue was also going viral at the time, she succeeded in gaining the attention of many students.

  If Jing Yun Zhao’s situation at that time couldn’t give her any benefits, she wouldn’t have even cast a glance towards her direction.

  Jing Yun Zhao merely gave Sun Yan a glance, with a trace of disdain flashing past.

  “The amount of people who wanted to help me are many, yet they didn’t manage to help me in the end…… But you’re the first person I’ve seen that showed-off in front of me despite not helping me. Little Miss Sun, I know that you’re compassionate, and are very willing to help people, but you don’t need to raise the matter time and time again.” Jing Yun Zhao said before continuing, “The second round should be starting soon right? If you’re satisfied with the results from the first round, then we can continue and it’ll be considered a win for me, and if you were to forfeit now, I would obviously be the winner and you would have to follow through with our agreed terms and get out of my sight.”


  Finishing her words, Jing Yun Zhao simply turned around and went to collect her papers.

  Her handwriting was the result of the amount of practice she put in, in her past life. Before, not only did she participate in multiple competitions, but even after she went to jail, she continued practicing.

  The skills she had now, weren’t just picked up simply from the ground…… it was the crystallization of her desperate efforts.

  Hearing her words, the corner of Sun Yan’s lips trembled before she replied, “Let’s continue……”


  Currently, the skies were turning darker, but as more and more lights were turned on, it was as if it was daytime at the courtyard, and underneath the light, Jing Yun Zhao’s calm and dazzling attitude could be seen.

  All the judges also went back to their seats, before one of them announced, “The second round will be about recognizing different herbs and medicines, and explaining said herbs and medicine’s characteristics, and it will still be a written test.”


  With the judge finishing his words, stalks of plants were placed on the table in front of the two competitors, some were fresh, some were dried, while some weren’t herbs but came from different parts of a herb, and all of them had to be deduced correctly.

  Some of the medicine only used a herb’s roots, but someone who’s truly experienced in medicine would be able to identify which herb the medicine belonged to just by seeing a herb’s sprout or by it’s smell.

  This second round was truly testing the talent and knowledge of the competitors.

  After the first round, Sun Yan felt that she would never be able to win if the competition was still based on memorization.

  At last, Sun Yan finally regained her lost confidence. After all, she was someone who frequently visited the Cui Family’s library that was filled with books about medicinal materials. Moreover, she would even help the Cui Family process medicinal materials sometimes. As a result, she felt that it would be a walk in the park since it was just recognizing medicine and herbs, and as for explaining a medicine or herb’s characteristics, it’s difficulty was the same for Sun Yan.

  The two people once again lowered their pen.

  While Jing Yun Zhao had a serious attitude, as if she was immersed in her own world, she would take a careful look at every single medicine and herb, give it a sniff, before distinguishing what medicine or herb it was and writing it down.
