Rebirth: My Dear Little Wife Is So Scheming

"Gu Yangzhi! Are you sure you want to do this?"

Bai Xiao wasn't flustered at all. People like Gu Yangzhi took themselves too seriously and valued fame and fortune too much. He didn't care about national honor at all, otherwise, he wouldn't have done such a thing today.

He actually thought the world revolved around him.

How ridiculous.

Gu Yangzhi turned back, his cold gaze falling on Bai Xiao's face. This woman actually wasn't flustered.

Ignorance is fearless.

"Yes, I must do this!"

"Very well, Gu Yangzhi, I won't stop you. Please go ahead."

Bai Xiao turned away and continued discussing with others about their topic, which was the semi-finals happening five days later.

Soon, a list of the semi-final events would be released, and they could know how they would compete in five days.

Gu Yangzhi was left standing there, even after saying those words, no one came to advise or comfort him, leaving Gu Yangzhi a bit embarrassed.

"Alright! I'll be waiting."

Gu Yangzhi had yet to take a step.

Smith and members of the ten-judge panel were already striding swiftly towards them.

From afar, when Smith saw Bai Xiao, his face broke into a broad smile.

It was somewhat eerie to see under the lights in the middle of the night.

"Doctor Bai, Doctor Bai, congratulations, congratulations!"

Seeing Smith, Gu Yangzhi stopped in his tracks and approached. This was his teacher, and he wanted to take this chance to show those people that he, Gu Yangzhi, didn't need to look at their faces. His backing was internationally renowned doctor professors; they weren't on the same level.

"Teacher, it's too much to ask you to come out in the middle of the night. You should rest well. Just tell me if there's anything you need." Gu Yangzhi was one of Smith's most distinguished students.

Because of Smith's reputation, Gu Yangzhi received much acclaim abroad, benefiting immensely from it.

Smith glanced at Gu Yangzhi, who was blocking his way, his face darkening, "Gu, step aside."

He knew very well what Gu Yangzhi had done just now.

His most proud student abandoned his companions, coming back early to claim honor, which made him feel ashamed.

This matter was something he planned to educate Gu Yangzhi about privately, but Gu Yangzhi insisted on making a fool of himself now.

Many judges had criticized Gu Yangzhi just now, all looking down upon him.

A person without a sense of responsibility to his own country wouldn't be liked by people from any nation.

This was a slap in the face.

Gu Yangzhi indeed had no sense of propriety; over the years, he had enjoyed the thrill of fame too much and lost sight of himself.

"Teacher!"

He didn't understand why his teacher seemed indifferent to him.

He hadn't done anything wrong, had he?

Smith glared, "I said, step aside."

He pushed him aside with one hand, and others followed Smith, walking past.

Words drifted through the air as they left.

"A person without a sense of country, without a sense of belonging, isn't worthy of being a scholar. No matter how good their skills are, such a person isn't worthy of being human."

Gu Yangzhi nearly stumbled.

This meant everyone knew what he had done.

This was a blatant ridicule.

Smith rushed over to Bai Xiao, "Doctor Bai! You guys are amazing! All thirty of you made it to the finals, I'm so pleased with your achievement." He seemed even more pleased looking at Bai Xiao.

He wished he could convince Bai Xiao to become his student. Back then, they had offered Bai Xiao many generous conditions! But this girl wasn't moved at all.

Such a waste of talent.

Bai Xiao smiled modestly and shook hands with a few people in greeting. It seemed Smith and others appearing here meant they were watching their screens closely.

Otherwise, they couldn't have known so quickly.

"Doctor Bai, can you tell us how you discovered those treasure boxes?"

Someone couldn't hold back, wondering since they saw them finish things up in the blink of an eye, they were puzzled.

Qi Yuqing stepped forward, "Sorry, dear judges, we need to rest. Since the results are out, we all need to rest. Doctor Bai is exhausted today, let's discuss this another day."

She was there to play the bad guy.

They had incredible luck, and while Qi Yuqing didn't know the extent to which their ten-person team's luck was unbelievable at first, she thought they were just that lucky.

But when Bai Xiao went alone with her to find the team's representatives, Qi Yuqing learned from others that the treasure boxes weren't that easy to find.

They were hidden in unimaginable places, testing everyone's vision and luck.

After another round of incredible luck with the Hong Kong Island Team, Qi Yuqing realized that her idol was indeed an idol.

Who could casually have such luck?

Up to now, they hadn't seen anyone else with such luck.

So how could they disclose this luck?

They still had competitions ahead.

They had to maintain this mood until the very end.

Others also expressed the need to rest.

They all knew Bai Xiao and Qi Yuqing had done the equivalent of two rounds of tasks, absolutely exhausting them, even if just walking was tiring enough.

How could their captain not protect them?

Smith didn't have time to say anything more, Bai Xiao and Qi Yuqing were already being ushered into the car by others.

Seeing them out of sight, Smith felt frustrated.

Couldn't they just have a conversation?

Bai Xiao wasn't a giant panda.

Did they have to protect her so much?

Bai Xiao and the others got in the car, and Gu Yangzhi had gotten on earlier, sitting alone, isolated in a seat with no one sitting nearby.

The team had strong opinions about Gu Yangzhi.

Didn't they see that even Smith ignored Gu Yangzhi, showing his character?

"Some people just have thick skin, thinking they're the most powerful in the world, without even examining what they really are!"

"Right, and they can still shamelessly sit here with us. People live for face, trees for bark, and if people lose their shamelessness, they're invincible."

"Coming from a prestigious school, I think they're worse than an average school graduate like me, at least I learned about propriety, integrity, and shame."

"Not even knowing the concept of country, how can such a person be called human?"

"What does it matter if they're called human? Some people can't wait to join another country, not acknowledging their own country. Such people might as well be dead."

Gu Yangzhi's face turned livid with rage! It was the first time someone publicly and mercilessly struck him down.

This veiled insult left him nowhere to hide.

It also exposed his intentions; he indeed wanted to acquire citizenship of another country.

Perhaps subconsciously, he didn't see himself as Chinese, just viewing this competition as an opportunity, a chance to make a name for himself.

And not for national honor.

Bai Xiao coughed, "Everyone, let's take a rest!"

She was indeed tired and wanted to rest well for a while.

Gu Yangzhi sneered, was she flaunting her captain's status now?

Fine, he refused to believe it, he didn't believe he couldn't surpass Bai Xiao.

He was determined to drive Bai Xiao out of this team.

The humiliation they gave him today, he would return to them tenfold.
