Su Xiaocai followed Ji Li into the testing room.
On the white medical robe, there was a name badge. Su Xiaocai glanced at it and said, "Doctor Ji, why did you say those people outside were all here for Ji Heng? Couldn't they be here to see you? You're very good-looking."
Under Ji Li's glasses were a pair of bright blue phoenix eyes. He gazed at Su Xiaocai and noticed her expression was purely curious.
"Because I have genetic issues, no matter how good-looking I am, I can only be a school nurse." Ji Li spoke as if he were talking about something very ordinary.
There was a faint sadness, paired with a melancholy aura. Often when he spoke like this, it garnered people's sympathy, and they wouldn't press further.
Su Xiaocai, however, felt sympathy only for Daddy Su and the little baby, "Doctor Ji, what's your actual problem? If you have a serious illness, you wouldn't be able to be a school nurse, right?"
Ji Li put a testing device on Su Xiaocai, "Little friend, don't pry too much, or you'll never grow tall."
What a sharp remark.
"Height is my weak spot. I won't ask anymore, so don't mention it next time." Su Xiaocai obediently put on the device and did the test.
"That's better." Ji Li tested her reaction speed, strength, endurance... and also took a blood sample for the machine.
After all the tests, Ji Li wasn't surprised by her data, which far exceeded that of her peers, "Did you practice qi early on?"
"Yes, at twelve."
Ji Li responsibly warned, "Starting too early can affect your height and might lead to genetic issues. If your genetic chain collapses, it can't be fixed. But what's done is done, so it's best to take it slow and not rush progress."
Su Xiaocai replied, "I know I won't grow tall, but if I reach Level Five before eighteen, my height will increase again. As for the genetic issue, how do you know I haven't resolved it yet?"
Ji Li's expression turned serious, "This is a very serious matter. Don't joke about your body."
"I'm never afraid of this issue." Su Xiaocai handed over a business card, proudly lifting her chin, "Xiao Cai from Su's Planet, General Marketing Manager. If you become our VVIP client, maybe I can tell you why I'm not afraid."
Su Xiaocai understood the importance of connections. Expanding her network slightly wouldn't hurt, and the Ji Family was an excellent choice.
Of course, she needed to ensure Ji Li wasn't an enemy, but rather a good ally.
The video from yesterday was surely sabotaged by someone. As a newcomer to Capital Star, it was difficult to guess who was targeting her.
Daddy Su had offended quite a few people in the past, and her existence was almost public knowledge.
With so many negative comments and thousands of accounts working simultaneously, it was clearly not a simple matter.
Su Xiaocai considered the possibility of Xue Huiyi targeting her, but it seemed unlikely. They just didn't see eye-to-eye, not mortal enemies, so would she go to such great lengths?
No matter who targeted her, the forces behind them weren't weak, and it wasn't something she could handle alone.
If she hadn't cleverly resolved it, she might have been thoroughly discredited before the school even started.
Ji Li didn't immediately take her card, and Su Xiaocai was still holding it out.
Ji Li asked, "Are you from the Non-human Research Institute?"
"No, what does that institute research?" Su Xiaocai placed the card in his chest pocket, "Take it, just consider it support for your junior's family business."
Su Xiaocai turned to look up information on the Non-human Research Institute online.
The Non-human Research Institute mainly focused on gene repair research, offering clients custom nutrition plans, combined with appropriate exercise, followed by experimental genetic potion injections.
Those with weak bodies, desiring extended life, or aspiring to become Mecha Masters, who were beyond the help of current medicine, often sought the institute's assistance.
They did have some success stories.
But most who went were essentially guinea pigs.
Su Xiaocai noted that the publicized potion names consisted of long, unintelligible strings of text.
Unaware that she was competing with the Non-human Research Institute, Su Xiaocai said goodbye to Doctor Ji, "Remember to buy more of my family's fruit."
Ji Li shook his head with a smile, his eyes shimmering.
Students nowadays, already knowing how to do business before leaving school.
Buying some fruit was nothing, after all, he needed to eat too, and if the quality was good, he wouldn't mind buying more.
After Su Xiaocai left, Ji Li placed the test results on the desk, looked down at the platform page in Su Xiaocai's business card, and found her family's fruit shop.
He discovered that besides selling products, her account also featured many interesting short videos.
For instance, feeding expensive fruits to pigs and chickens, with the comment section filled with wails, accusing her of waste and suggesting feeding them instead. Her response was, "My family's pigs, chickens, cattle, and sheep will thank you."
