Chapter 399: Chapter 250: The Forbes 30 Under 30 List Is Announced
"All we can say is, Director Wu truly has the talent and ability."
The two deans were completely convinced.
"It looks like we’ll need to deepen our cooperation with Director Wu moving forward."
"And as we mentioned in the meeting today, we could also invite the scientists from Wu’s Pharmaceutical Company’s R&D center to lecture on pharmaceutical development. That would further enhance our corporate-academic partnership."
"Also, now that the Medical Experiment Center has its honorary director, shouldn’t we decide on our college’s director position?"
Previously, everyone had their own agenda, which would have required negotiation and compromise. However, after the incident with Teacher Fu, and with the staunch support of Mayor Fu and Director He, it was clear the director of the Medical Experiment Center needed to be someone who had a good relationship with Wu Ting and could cooperate smoothly with her.
The choice between Guan Bao and Director Duan was obvious.
The two deans looked at Professor Long, who chuckled.
"Director Duan performed quite well this time. It was his invitation and recommendation that brought Director Wu to cooperate with our Medical Experiment Center in the first place."
"I’ll make my position clear: I won’t have any objections to whomever the college ultimately appoints."
It was a very tactful thing for Professor Long to say.
The two deans exchanged a knowing smile.

After Wu Ting and Deng Feifei finished the contract signing with Fan City University Medical College, they returned to Wu’s Pharmaceutical Company together.
Deng Feifei called a meeting with the company’s mid-level managers, including Jia Jun.
Wu Ting, as the chairman, also participated.
The meeting was a review of the massive number of orders Wu’s Pharmaceutical Company had recently received.
Deng Feifei also laid out a plan for the work ahead.
Finally, Deng Feifei announced performance bonuses for the entire management team to reward them for their hard work and long hours.
After all, Wu’s Pharmaceutical Company was still in its early stages, and many of the staff were part of the core team that had followed Deng Feifei from Jin Pharmaceutical Group.
Their chairman was so capable and effective, landing a massive volume of orders that everyone had to work overtime just to keep up.
But no one complained, because the company’s leadership, headed by Wu Ting and Deng Feifei, was more than willing to pay them for it!
"Thank you, President Wu! Thank you, President Deng! The bosses are so generous!"
Motivated by both the money and the company’s bright future, all the employees threw themselves into their work with renewed passion.
Wu’s Pharmaceutical Company was thriving!
This also guaranteed they would have enough capital to invest in and build the joint research facility with Fan City University Medical College!
After the other employees left, Jia Jun reported the latest progress to Wu Ting.
"President Wu, at our current pace, we’ll be able to enter the official clinical trial phase for the Fengmu Tiada project in less than a month! So far, everything is going smoothly!"
Jia Jun had never been part of such a smooth and efficient drug development process before, and she was in high spirits.
She had previously bought some Jin Pharmaceutical Group stock on Wu Ting’s advice and was now quite well-off. Having achieved financial freedom, she could now fully devote herself to the pharmaceutical research she was so passionate about.
Hearing Jia Jun’s report, Wu Ting eagerly praised and encouraged Jia Jun and her team.
After shooing Jia Jun out, Wu Ting turned to Deng Feifei with a serious expression and said,
"President Fei, come to my office. I have a few hundred-million-dollar projects to discuss with you."
Seeing Wu Ting’s deadpan expression, Deng Feifei didn’t doubt her for a second. ’This resourceful woman... which hospital did she sign a contract with now?’ she wondered.
But the moment they stepped into the office, Wu Ting pulled Deng Feifei by the hand, and they both tumbled onto the large office sofa.
"Wu Ting... you!"
"Relax!"
As Wu Ting moved gently, Deng Feifei put up a token resistance before yielding.
Wu Ting pinned Deng Feifei beneath her. Deng Feifei was face down, pressed against the sofa cushions.
Wu Ting then straddled her, sitting on the shapeliest part of her rear.
Deng Feifei was confused. ’What is she doing?’
"Our President Fei has been working too hard lately."
"You had a leg cramp yesterday, and today you had to run that long meeting and organize all that work. Your back must be aching. Here, let your boss give you a massage."
Wu Ting placed her hands on Deng Feifei’s shoulders.
Deng Feifei finally realized that Wu Ting was going to give her a shoulder and back massage.
She breathed a small sigh of relief, but she also felt a twinge of disappointment.
’She had half-expected Wu Ting, that beast in human guise, to suddenly make a wild move. But no. Turns out she wasn’t even going to act like one.’
"Mmm... Hey, this is actually really comfortable."
Deng Feifei really had been exhausted these past few days.
Wu Ting’s massage felt incredibly good, melting away her exhaustion.
Wu Ting was using an authentic Zhao Family massage technique. ’I’ll have to learn a few more moves from Director Zhao next time I see her,’ she thought.
Deng Feifei had clearly been overworking herself lately; she already had faint dark circles under her eyes.
Wu Ting’s heart ached for her.
As the massage continued, Deng Feifei groggily drifted off to sleep, letting out soft, cute little snores.
Wu Ting smiled, pulled out her phone, and recorded the sound of Deng Feifei’s snoring.
Her snores were interspersed with the occasional contented murmur.
After massaging a while longer, Wu Ting took off her jacket and covered Deng Feifei with it.
She moved to the other sofa and dozed off for a bit herself.
The office was dark with the lights off, but it felt incredibly warm and peaceful.
