665 Complaining
Qin Xi called the staff at the clinic over for the gathering, including Liu Dequan and his son’s family.
When Xia Tangxin heard that Qin Xi was having a gathering, she immediately left the Sweet Dew Fruit Store and ran over. Of course, she did not forget to call Zhao Dan and Zheng Zhou.
They were already very familiar with each other. After coming, they would help Luo Xiujuan work in the kitchen. They cleaned the table, set up the wine glasses, and cut the fruits. They treated this place as their home.
Qin Xi and Xia Tangxin were making fresh fruit juice in the kitchen. Seeing that Xia Tangxin had been living a good life recently, she immediately teased, “You’ve been glowing recently. Why? Have you established a relationship with Mars?”
In front of Qin Xi, Xia Tangxin did not feel embarrassed at all. She nodded with a smile.
“Yes, before he left, we established a relationship. He said that after he’s done with the work in the Medical Association, he’ll settle down here with me. By the way, he also said that he wants to learn Chinese medicine from you. I even laughed at him. Why would a foreigner learn Chinese medicine? Even Chinese people have a hard time learning Chinese medicine, let alone him.”
Qin Xi shook her head and laughed. “Mars is indeed very talented in medicine, but Chinese medicine is not something that can be mastered overnight.”
Not to mention Mars, even Liu Dequan, who had been a doctor his entire life, did not know much about Chinese medicine. As a foreigner who could not even speak Chinese, how could he understand Chinese medicine, let alone learn it?
Xia Tangxin shrugged. “I’ve told him everything, but he’s stubborn and won’t back down until he fails.”
“It doesn’t matter. If he wants to come, he can come. I can teach him. Let’s see how long he can stick to it.”
Qin Xi was not too concerned about this matter, but she did not forget to tease, “In any case, you’ll get married in the future, and it’s only right for me to help him.”
Xia Tangxin held her cheeks and said smugly, “Of course. You’re the one who matched us.”
She leaned closer to Qin Xi, as if she wanted to whisper something to her. However, before she could say anything, she saw Han Shi standing behind them, frightening Xia Tangxin out of her wits.
“You, why are you standing behind us without saying a word? Are you trying to scare me to death?” Xia Tangxin patted her chest and glared at him.
Han Shi ignored her and cleverly pushed her to the side. Then, he took over Xia Tangxin’s place. He picked up the fruits and started to wash them while saying sarcastically.
“Who knows if that man has ulterior motives towards you or not. Perhaps he’s just after your money.”
Xia Tangxin was so angry that her face turned red. However, she knew that she was not as argumentative as Han Shi. She turned to look at Qin Xi and complained.
“Xi, look at him. He’s bullying me again. Teach him a lesson.”
Qin Xi looked at her coldly and said in the gentlest voice, “Be good and stop fooling around. This is my man. I can’t teach him a lesson, even if you’re my friend.”
Xia Tangxin widened her eyes and pouted, pretending to be hurt. “So this is your true colors, Qin Xi. I treated you as my friend, but you two actually bullied me together!”
