Master Choi was not convinced at all. He looked at them coldly before turning to ask Fade, "Fade, tell me, how should we punish them?"

Obviously, he had given him the right to call the shots.

Immediately, both Betty and Tenant trembled, quickly resorting to pitiful begging.

"Mr. Chen, we are sorry for misbehaving. Please forgive us."

"We really didn't know you were Professor Choi's guest. We didn't mean to offend you, so please forgive us."

Fade looked at them and said coldly, "You're only apologizing to me now because you didn't know that I was Professor Choi's guest. What if I was really not a guest of Professor Choi and was just an ordinary person? What would you do then?"

"We... W- We will still apologize. We..." The two were stunned momentarily before they hurriedly spoke.

Fade waved his hand and dismissed their excuses, "You don't have to explain anything.

Such tears and lies are useless in front of me. Do you think I can't read what you are thinking?"

"At first, my initial suggestion was to expel both of you, but since you are Master Choi's students, I will spare you this time. You will receive disciplinary demerits and delay your graduation for a year. During this whole year, you have to be volunteers in the university to serve the students and teachers of the Chinese Medicine School. Can you do that?" Fade looked at the two, narrowing his eyes as he spoke.

The reason why he proposed such a punishment was because of some concerns he had. After all, Chinese medicine was not very popular now, so he didn't want the number of students practicing Chinese medicine to be reduced. Therefore, he gave them a chance to be volunteers for a year to hone their temperaments. At the same time, they would also make some contributions to the Chinese Medicine School. If they could accomplish this, change their personalities, and finally improve themselves, it would be a good thing for everyone.

If they couldn't complete what was expected of them or couldn't withstand the test of time, they would be expelled directly. Fade felt that such a punishment was enough for them.

He had taken a lot of effort to come up with this punishment.

However, to both Betty and Tenant, such a punishment was like a bolt from the blue. They were horrified and terrified by the degree of punishment they had received.

To them, this incident was just a minor mistake, and there was no need to make such a big deal out of it. At most, they would only need to apologize and submit an apology letter to the school. The worst that would happen to them would be that they would be demoted from the student union.

However, the punishment Fade had suggested was far beyond their expectations. They had to receive a disciplinary demerit and postpone their graduation for a year, staying in the university as volunteers. Furthermore, he mentioned that this was considered a light punishment as he had taken into account Master Choi's reputation. If he had taken it seriously, both of them would likely be expelled. They could not accept this punishment, so they could only stand still.

Seeing this, Fade snorted coldly, "What? You don't want to accept my suggestion? If that's the case, you can just expel them directly. It will be less troublesome." "No, don't! Please don't expel us. We j-just..." The two of them didn't want to be expelled, but they still felt that the punishment they had received was disproportionately heavy. Hence, they looked at Master Choi, hoping that he could help put in a good word for them and reduce their punishment, "Professor Choi, we..."

However, before they finished speaking, Master Choi spoke up, "I think Fade's suggestion is good. Moreover, he did this for your own good. To be able to follow his arrangements will be an honor to talk about in our industry."

"B-But..." Betty and Tenant could not understand what he had said. After all, Fade had punished them, yet Master Choi had said that this was some sort of honor! That didn't make any sense. Noticing their confusion, Master Choi asked, "You still don't know Fade's identity, do you?"

"Identity? What identity?" This time, Betty and Tenant, and even Felicity, who was standing beside them, was puzzled. All three of them had confused expressions on their faces.

"Isn't Fade your guest, Professor Choi?" Felicity asked.

Master Choi nodded and agreed, "That's right, Fade is my guest, but you must have heard of his other identity." "What identity?"

Master Choi took a look at Fade and chuckled, "Fade's full name is Fade Chen. He is a teacher at the Chinese Medicine School of Capital City University."

Hearing this, Tenant and Betty were a little confused. For a moment, Fade's name didn't register in their brains.

However, when Felicity heard this, she immediately gasped in joy. She looked at him in surprise and exclaimed, "Fade, you are a teacher in Capital City University. Don't tell me... you are the infamous distinguished professor of Capital City University, Professor Chen?"

Fade nodded and laughed, "That's me!"

After getting confirmation, Felicity was even more surprised. She couldn't help but shriek in excitement, "Professor Chen... You really are Professor Chen! Professor Chen, you are so amazing. I really enjoy your courses, and I've even dreamt of becoming your student. I..."

Felicity was thrilled, acting much like a fan who had seen her idol in person.

"I know, you just told me that," Fade grinned.

She suddenly recalled that when she was chatting with Fade earlier, and she seemed to have mentioned that she wanted to go to Capital City University to become Fade's student. Back then, she did not expect that the person she was talking about would actually be the person in front of her.

Thinking of this, she couldn't help but blush. She lowered her head and looked a little embarrassed.

Fade smiled and continued, "Besides, Professor Choi is standing next to you. Is it really appropriate for you to say that?"

"Oh, I-1... Professor Choi, I didn't mean it. I..." Felicity panicked a little. Obviously, it was inappropriate for her to say that she wanted to be Fade's student in front of him.

Fortunately, Master Choi did not mind this. He even laughed at the thought, "Well, you don't have to explain to me. It's okay. Let alone you, even I want to be his student in Chinese Medicine. It's normal!" Felicity didn't expect Master Choi to have such a high appraisal towards Fade. She was a little flustered.

Tenant and Betty, who were standing next to them, finally remembered who Fade was after listening to their conversation.

He was the distinguished professor at Capital City University. A few months ago, he defeated Master Chiang, the National Chinese Medicine Doctor working in Chiang Medical Center. Furthermore, he was also the creator of the Ephedra Syrup...

Once they recalled his achievements, all of his heroic deeds started flooding their thoughts like a tidal wave. The two of them were so shocked that they found themselves tongue-tied.

At that very moment, their legs felt so weak that they almost fell to the ground. They finally understood why Master Choi valued Fade so much, and why he said being able to receive punishment from him should be an honor.

Immediately, there was no hesitation left in their hearts. They quickly said, "We are willing to accept Mr. Chen's punishment."

Fade nodded and said, "If that's the case, great."

They quickly agreed and left. Meanwhile, Felicity looked much like a crazed fan admiring her idol. She asked Fade for his signature and left with much satisfaction and excitement after taking a photo with him.
