Qian Qi didn’t want to miss such a great opportunity.

After all, it’s not easy to find a free and even self-sacrificing living advertisement. If she missed this chance, there wouldn’t be another one.

Therefore, she lowered her head and didn’t answer the principal’s question. Instead, she stared intently at the tips of her feet, seemingly brewing something in her mind.

The sudden silence made the principal somewhat puzzled. Just as he was about to say something, Qian Qi abruptly raised her head.

A trace of sadness gradually emerged on that rather emmm… face, “Principal… do you not trust your own student?”

Qian Qi covered her chest and shook her head, her words filled with disappointment. “Your student has been working tirelessly day and night, dedicating all her time to researching potions, all for the sake of benefiting humanity and repaying the nurturing of our alma mater. Yet, in your eyes, all this is worth nothing!”

“I…” The principal didn’t expect Qian Qi to say such things and was momentarily at a loss for words.

It wasn’t that he thought it was worth nothing, but because the subject was Qian Qi, he found it hard to believe!

By now, Qian Qi’s emotions had reached their peak. Tears streamed down her face like steel beads as she passionately lamented, “How can you justify this to your student’s sincere heart? How can you justify this to your student’s lofty ambitions? Such a small wish from your student, and you’re unwilling to express support and trust. Then, in this world, who else can make her stay true to her heart and give her all to repay this country and society?”

“All she seeks is a verification of her research results after years of hard work!”

“Principal—” Qian Qi cried out with a heart-wrenching voice, “Don’t let us students down!”

Qian Qi’s voice was exceptionally loud, and her passionate speech attracted many students, who began whispering among themselves, asking what had happened.

Upon learning that the shouting student had created a potion that could stop bleeding in one second and wanted the principal to personally verify it, their eyes filled with admiration for such a bold hero.

This classmate is so daring, actually asking the principal to test the potion?!

The principal, bombarded with a series of questions, was left dazed by Qian Qi’s speech. He trembled as he pointed at Qian Qi, stammering, “You…” but couldn’t finish his sentence.

Meanwhile, Su Ang’s gaze gently fell on the face of the girl wearing flip-flops and a worn-out leather jacket.

Standing alone amidst the noisy crowd, the girl’s eyes were bright and determined, completely unaffected by those around her. Facing the principal’s one-sided skepticism, she didn’t back down. Instead, her every word was forceful and confident.

She seemed very sure of herself.

Su Ang took a step forward, his voice calm as he spoke up to resolve the principal’s current predicament. “Classmate, let me test the potion for the principal.”

Qian Qi turned to look at Su Ang, who had spoken up. Up close, she realized the young man was extraordinarily handsome, almost unreal. Her gaze drifted downward, landing on Su Ang’s fair and slender hand.

This little hand looks so beautiful; his arm must be just as nice!

Qian Qi raised her small knife, eager to make a move.

This immediately alarmed the principal, who quickly shielded his precious Su Ang behind him. “No, no, no, I’ll do it!”

The principal didn’t want Su Ang’s flawless body to be injured. The young man was still so young; if he got a scar on his arm, how unsightly would that be! Not to mention, he was an S-level psychic awakener and a future commander. Any injury to him would be a loss for the entire Central Continent!

Glancing at the students around them, the principal took a deep breath. The situation was like an arrow on the bowstring—it had to be released. For the sake of his reputation, he had to help Qian Qi prove the efficacy of the Hemostatic potion. If it turned out to be fake, with so many students as witnesses, he could justifiably expel Qian Qi!

Since you, Qian Qi, are being unkind, don’t blame me, the principal, for being unrighteous!

With a pained heart, the principal rolled up his sleeve, still managing to say some words to salvage his reputation. “As the principal, I should encourage students to push their limits. I am willing…”

Before he could finish, the impatient Qian Qi had already swiftly made a cut on the principal’s arm.

“Sss—!”

“Sss—!”

The first sound came from the principal.

The second came from the onlooking students.

“The principal is heroic!” Qian Qi theatrically exclaimed, picking up a packet of hemostatic medicine from the ground. She didn’t forget to add, “By the way, Principal, the hemostatic medicine costs 998, and the packaging is 2 yuan.”

Principal: ???

I’m already being your guinea pig, and you’re still charging me?!

“Principal, you know my family is poor…”

“Fine, fine, just hurry up!” The principal’s face turned dark. He was already regretting this; it hurt like hell!

Qian Qi wasn’t worried about the principal reneging on payment. After all, she had ten thousand ways to force him to pay. She opened the sealed bag and directly sprinkled the hemostatic medicine on the principal’s arm.

The principal felt the pain vanish in an instant. The hemostatic medicine seemed to have a pain-relieving effect. In just a blink, the wound miraculously stopped bleeding, not a single drop of blood flowing out.

He took out a handkerchief to wipe it and found that the wound had left no scar at all.

“Holy crap, it’s really this magical!” Qian Qi also noticed and couldn’t help but utter an elegant expletive.

Principal: ???

Didn’t you just swear it was absolutely genuine?!

Realizing her slip of the tongue, Qian Qi quickly raised the principal’s blood-stained arm and passionately declared to the gathered students,

“Classmates! Look! This is the greatest testament to the principal’s unconditional support for us!”

“This is his heartfelt trust, the best encouragement we could receive!”

“It is precisely because of such a great principal that we can have a brighter and more glorious future, and that humanity can endure forever in the long river of history!”

“Let us forever remember this day, strive hard, and advance bravely, repaying the principal and the school for their trust and nurturing!”

Qian Qi raised the principal’s hand again, passionately shouting, “Today, I am proud of my alma mater! Tomorrow, my alma mater will be proud of me!”

Her voice was full of infectious enthusiasm, and, influenced by her passion, the surrounding students couldn’t help but emotionally chant,

“Today, I am proud of my alma mater! Tomorrow, my alma mater will be proud of me!”

“Long live the principal!”

“Long live the principal!!!”

The students’ pure, untainted eyes gazed at the principal with reverence and trust. Amidst these youthful yet fervent chants of “Long live the principal,” he gradually lost himself in the moment.

Just as he was feeling light-headed with exhilaration, he suddenly heard Qian Qi shout at the top of her lungs:

“Classmates! You’ve seen the effects of the Hemostatic Medicine. Stopping bleeding in one second is no exaggeration! Even if a major artery is severed, it can instantly halt the bleeding. It is truly the ultimate life-saving tool!”

“Not 99, not 88, and not even 998, but only 1998, and you can take it home immediately!”

Principal: ???

Wait, wasn’t it just 998 a moment ago?!

This brat dares to raise the price on the spot?! And right in front of me, the principal?!

As for the matter of cutting the principal…

Qian Qi: All you lost were a few cells, but what I gained was the trust of all humanity—cough, I mean, the money from all humanity!!!

Principal: ???
