Zhou Qin had prepared for this lecture for a long time. He had memorized his speech until he could recite it perfectly, so he didn't stutter when he began. Furthermore, the content of his lecture was based on medical insights he had distilled over the past few years, which made him sound increasingly passionate and confident as he spoke. He was convinced that his medical research would move every professor and student in the room.
However, by the time he reached the one-third mark of his speech, Zhou Qin’s tone grew increasingly hesitant. He could clearly see that the expressions of every Huaqing professor in the audience remained unchanged, and the Huaqing medical students sitting in the back all appeared completely indifferent. It was obvious they all considered his lecture boring and devoid of any real value.
In an instant, Zhou Qin’s confidence was shattered. All the hard work he had put into this speech had failed to move the professors and students of Huaqing at all. This sparked a deep sense of self-doubt within him. By the time he finished reading his notes, his voice was barely audible to anyone but himself. His face was flushed crimson, and he wished he could find a hole to hide in. It turned out that the medical expertise he had once taken such pride in was nothing in the eyes of Huaqing.
