1970s Gangster Couple

As soon as Xiao Xiao spoke, Wang Xiaoyue and Li Fangfang also looked over.

"Really, Xiao Xiao, you finished reading three medical books just like that?" Wang Xiaoyue asked in disbelief. Those were medical books, after all!

Xiao Xiao sighed, "I just flipped through them."

Hearing her say this, Wang Xiaoyue patted her chest in relief: "You scared me to death. I thought there was such a huge gap between us and you, the top scholar."

Xiao Xiao smiled and added, "So, I memorized it in one go."

"Cough!" Wang Xiaoyue, who was relaxing and drinking water, suddenly heard what Xiao Xiao said and coughed out loud. Dong Wei stood up abruptly, picked up one of the medical books in front of Xiao Xiao, flipped to a random page, read a sentence, and asked Xiao Xiao to continue the content.

Originally, Xiao Xiao didn't intend to specifically mention her photographic memory, but she was also looking at the other medical books Dong Wei showed her. If she didn't mention it, Dong Wei might not be as diligent in finding her medical books.

She fluently recited the content of the following pages, and after finishing one page, she even reminded Dong Wei, "It's time to turn the page."

Dong Wei numbly turned the page, and Xiao Xiao recited another page.

After Xiao Xiao finished reciting, Dong Wei looked up at her, then at Wang Xiaoyue, suddenly slammed the book shut, and took a deep breath.

"It's simply against the natural order!" Dong Wei said through gritted teeth looking at Xiao Xiao.

Wang Xiaoyue asked incredulously, "Don't tell me, Xiao Xiao got it all right?"

Dong Wei nodded: "Exactly."

Wang Xiaoyue gasped, her voice trembling as she asked Xiao Xiao, "Do you have a photographic memory?"

Xiao Xiao nodded, but it was far more than just a photographic memory.

"Ah!" Dong Wei suddenly screamed. How great it would be if she had a photographic memory. With such a skill, memorizing a few medical books would be effortless, and these voluminous books were almost driving her mad.

Dong Wei and Wang Xiaoyue, both holding onto Xiao Xiao, were both worshipping and screaming. Is this the difference between a genius and an ordinary person?

After their exclamations, Dong Wei said, "With such a talent, if you were to take my grandfather as your master, he would be overjoyed to death." Traditional Chinese medicine is primarily empirical, requiring the memorization of even more information than Western medicine. Not to mention anything else, just the knowledge about herbs alone is enough to make one's head spin.

Although she liked traditional Chinese medicine and believed in its effects, she would still choose Western medicine if she had to learn.

"With your talent and your love for traditional Chinese medicine, don't worry, when I go back, I'll talk to my grandfather. He will be thrilled to know that traditional Chinese medicine has gained another successor," Dong Wei guaranteed with a pat on her chest.

Xiao Xiao smiled with her eyes curving: "I'm not just interested in traditional Chinese medicine; I'm interested in anything unknown."

Wang Xiaoyue pulled Dong Wei and pointed at Xiao Xiao, saying, "Listen to this, is this even human talk!" They studied because they had to, but Xiao Xiao did it entirely out of interest, and she had the capacity for it.

Dong Wei patted Wang Xiaoyue's shoulder with an expression that said, "Stop, I get it."

While the three of them were having a lively conversation, Li Fangfang didn't say a word. Except for when Wang Xiaoyue exclaimed about Xiao Xiao's photographic memory, which made her look up in surprise, she quickly buried her head back in her books.
