Sun Hui took three pieces of grass from under the table, placed them neatly on the table, and looked at Lan Anran with a smile.
"These were the three kinds of herbs used in the experimental class today. Tell me what they are and their medicinal properties."
Lan Anran stepped forward and looked at them, a smile appearing on her face.
Aren't these the three herbs used in her Three Ingredient Medicinal Soup?
This was too simple.
Sun Hui looked at the smile on Lan Anran's face, thinking that Anran was stumped and the smile was used to conceal her guilty conscience.
She spent a great deal of effort to find these three pieces of grass. They grew in extremely harsh environments and generally wouldn't be known by people from the countryside.
A countryside girl like Lan Anran might recognise wild flowers and wild grass, but she couldn't possibly know about something so good.
However, the next second, the smile was wiped off Sun Hui's face.
Lan Anran named the herbs easily.
"The one on the left is called Gynostemma Pentaphyllum. It has anti-inflammatory, detoxifying, cough inhibiting and expectorant effects. It can be made as tea and is mainly used for physical weakness and some chronic inflammations. The Bidens in the middle can clear away heat and detoxify, promote blood circulation and remove blood stasis, and reduce blood pressure. The light bamboo leaf on the right is called Ophiopogon Japonicus. It is a diuretic, produces fluids to quench thirst, tongue sores, etc. Do you have anything else? That was too simple, don't tell me it is the test paper question you spent so much effort to find?"

Li Yue was stunned. How did she know all of these? This information was only found in the Institute of Medicine textbooks and it wouldn't be easy to have them memorised.
Sun Hui was stunned for several seconds. Her mouth was wide open and she couldn't believe what happened.
She actually knows these herbs!?
Gah!
It actually hadn't stumped her. This was new information she had just learnt.
The other classmates were in disbelief and were asking how Lan Anran could have known about them.
Suddenly, someone said that it was normal for her to know about these since she was from the countryside. After all, is there anything the countryside didn't have?
1
This statement convinced everyone and some thought that it was a coincidence.
When Sun Hui heard this, she was certain Anran was lucky and that it wasn't strange for someone from the countryside to recognise these herbs.
This was dumb luck and she couldn't possibly be so fortunate next time.
"How was that? If there are no more questions, Ms. Li, can I sit?"
Lan Anran smiled.
Li Yue was stunned for a moment. Since Sun Hui didn't protest further, she nodded.
"You can sit next to Zhao Xiaolei."

Sun Hui watched Lan Anran sit.
She was furious and unconvinced. She secretly cursed Anran, hoping she would be eliminated.
Lan Anran's deskmate was also a rich second-generation heir, Zhao Xiaolei. She talked non-stop every day, probably because she was lonely and no one listened to her. Now that she finally had a deskmate, she was extremely excited.
She tugged on Lan Anran's clothes with a smile.
"Anran, you are so beautiful. Is Lan Yaxin from class 2 really your sister? She is the school beauty, but now that you are here, there's going to be a new school beauty."
Lan Anran didn't speak, she just smiled.
Just as she was about to stand, she seemed to have caught Lan Yaxin standing at the door.
She suddenly remembered how she believed Lan Yaxin's words in her past life and how Lan Yaxin had forced her off the cliff with each step. She really couldn't leave her alone….
A horrifying smile appeared at the corner of Lan Anran's mouth, making Zhao Xiaolei shiver.
Zhao Xiaolei's grades weren't bad, but she wasn't forced to be a doctor by her parents. She was interested in the profession and compared to the others, had the least amount of stress.
The experimental class was judged based on the students' results. Aside from Zhao Xiaolei, everyone else wasn't optimistic about Lan Anran, thinking she was just here to make up for the numbers and would be kicked out soon.
The experimental class wasn't a place anyone could stay. It was equivalent to the Olympics – a test of one's ability.
Someone as beautiful as Lan Anran stirred the jealousy of many female students and almost all the girls ostracised her.
When Lan Yaxin came back from physical education class, her expression was extremely dark. When her group of friends saw that she was upset, they knew it was because of Lan Anran.
"Don't worry, I have seen the photos. She isn't as pretty as our Yaxin. Besides, I don't think she knows anything. Think about it, a countryside girl wouldn't know about chemistry and biology, she probably doesn't even know how to write. She might not even be able to match up to Lan Yanran."
1
Hearing this, Lan Yaxin felt slightly better.
"Don't say that. My sister is used to the freedom in the countryside and the education in the countryside is naturally inferior to ours… She can't be blamed."

There was an underlying insult in Lan Yaxin's words but on the outside, she seemed kind and understanding.
"She is overestimating herself, everyone knows the Lan Family values reputation. Lan Yanran's frequent failure is already embarrassing enough. If you hadn't held up the Lan Family's reputation, the Lan Family would have been finished."
"Doesn't Lan Anran think it's embarrassing enough? She doesn't know anything and yet, she is here trying to flaunt her abilities. She'll just end up embarrassing herself."
Her friends laughed.
"Well, I have no choice. I'll have to study hard and maintain honor for the Lan Family."
In other words, the Lan Family could only rely on her.
"Yaxin, don't worry, you are already a default student of the Rong City Medical Research Institute. You will definitely be able to get in."
Her friends nodded in agreement.
After leaving the classroom, Lan Anran carried her schoolbag and prepared to go home. Just then, Lan Yaxin caught up with her.
Lan Yaxin wanted to hold Lan Anran's hand, but the moment she touched her, Lan Anran swung her away with disgust and spoke in a cold voice, "I don't like people touching me."
Lan Yaxin lowered her head and let out an "Mmh". Disgust and hatred appeared in her eyes, and she quickly turned the topic away with a smile.
"Sis, I heard that you are going to apply to the Rong City Medical Research Institute?"
"Does it have anything to do with you?"
Lan Anran didn't even turn her head, she continued to walk as she spoke.
"Sis, not everyone in the Lan Family has to become a doctor. It's a difficult profession. It's good enough for just Yanran to be a doctor. You haven't learnt the basics and aren't familiar with the knowledge, so it will be very difficult. I don't think Second Uncle and Second Aunt will blame you if you don't participate. As for Grandma, I can help put in a good word. Don't worry, you don't have to make it difficult for yourself."
Lan Yaxin's words seemed kind and she seemed to be thinking for Lan Anran's sake, but what she meant was that Lan Anran was a bottom-feeder just like Lan Yanran and learning would be useless.
