Chapter 42: Chapter 42 Mrs. Qi’s Assist
In the lobby, Qi Anran pulled his mother aside and, frowning, said, “I didn’t tell you the truth last night. Actually, I broke up with Ah Xi three months ago, and I have had another girlfriend in the anti.”
“Where is your current girlfriend now?” Mrs. Qi asked anxiously.
“We split up,” Qi Anran said.
“How, how did you split up again?”
“She’s the hospital director’s daughter, and she looks down on a country bumpkin like ,” Qi Anran explained.
Mrs. Qi lanted disapprovingly, “This… oh my, you’re confused! You let go of a good woman like Ah Xi to ss around with the director’s daughter? As if she would want to marry you! Even if you did manage to marry her, you would be accommodating a living Buddha at ho, and by then, I wouldn’t dare serve her either.”
Qi Anran took out a dormitory key from his pocket and said, “I can’t talk now; I have to work. Go rest in my dorm for now, and I’ll join you for lunch at noon.”
“Okay, sure.”
…
Although Qi Anran had bought a house, it was not yet decorated, and he had no furniture. Therefore, after breaking up with Han Ningzhen, he could only live in a dormitory.
Mrs. Qi carried the oranges to Qi Anran’s dormitory and noticed a cleaner sweeping the corridor.
She quickly handed out so oranges to the auntie cleaner.
Because she was so enthusiastic, the cleaner started chatting with her.
In the hospital, the lower you were on the hierarchy, the more you loved to gossip, especially the cleaners, who knew the most.
“You’re Dr. Qi’s mother, aren’t you? Oh my, your son is so foolish, to have given up on Dr. Su and started dating the hospital director’s daughter—that girl’s heart is a fluttering ss… tsk tsk, even stray cats aren’t as noisy as she is. When they first got together, we all said he’d dropped a waterlon to pick up sesa seeds and that this toad was trying to eat swan at.”
Mrs. Qi was a bit displeased with the description “toad,” but in order to dig up more information, she bore it and asked, “And what happened later?”
“Later, the two of them joined forces to bully Dr. Su. Dr. Su was quite pitiful during that ti, but fortunately she’s blessed; she’s recently got a new boyfriend, a tall and burly man. Your son and Dr. Su are definitely finished.”
“Ah?”
Mrs. Qi was extrely disappointed at that mont.
It wasn’t that she particularly liked Su ixi, she was just worried that her son wouldn’t be able to find a suitable wife.
First, she hoped her son could marry a city girl, and secondly, she hoped this city girl wouldn’t be too wealthy, making her more manageable.
Soone like Su ixi would be perfect.
Su ixi had lived alone since she was young, so no one would ask for a sky-high bride price, and moreover, after getting married, that old house she lived in would eventually be part of the Qi family estate.
How could her son not seize such an ideal marriage prospect?
Holding onto the last thread of hope, Mrs. Qi said to the cleaner auntie, “You see, my son is so outstanding; lots of girls should be throwing themselves at him. What if Dr. Su is still fantasizing about my son? Maybe she got a boyfriend just to make him jealous.”
The cleaner looked at Mrs. Qi in shock, but since she was eating the oranges given to her, it wouldn’t be nice to be too blunt, so she said, “That I don’t know; who can be sure about matters of the heart?”
Mrs. Qi imdiately felt encouraged.
She wanted to win Su ixi back for her son.
…
Su ixi was in the clinic that day, getting ready to see her last patient.
She had just called the number when the door to the consulting room was suddenly pushed open with a “bang.”
The person who ca in was a smiling Mrs. Qi, “Ah Xi, it’s .”
Su ixi was startled.
Mrs. Qi was holding big and small bags, all from a certain sports brand with shoes and clothes.
“What’s all this for?” Su ixi asked.
Mrs. Qi put the items down on the floor, then said with enthusiastic joy, “I just went to the store to buy you so clothes and shoes. Wow, these things are expensive; a pair of shoes costs several hundred, and wearing them you’ll feel extraordinary.”
She then opened up a pair of shoes and said, “You see this? You city girls like to wear little white shoes, don’t you? Look at this pair, pure white.”
Su ixi recognized the shoes at a glance. They were from a clearance sale, 99 a pair. Yesterday two nurses outside each bought a pair for convenience on the job.
Mrs. Qi also pulled out a black tracksuit, laughing, “Look, this black tracksuit goes perfectly with your little white shoes, also costing several hundred per set.”
“Auntie, what are you trying to do? Didn’t Qi Anran tell you, he and I have broken up long ago?”
“Broken up? No, my son said he’s had a few girlfriends, but the one he can’t forget is you. He also said dating the director’s daughter was just for fun, not serious. Ah Xi, n are like this before marriage, just horsing around, but certainly responsible afterward. Besides, he still thinks about you, so I think you might as well forgive him. If he makes any mistake from now on, just co tell , and I’ll scold him.”
“Auntie, there’s no need.” Su ixi said unequivocally: “I already have a boyfriend, and I stopped liking your son a long ti ago. Take your things and don’t do this again. It wastes money and ti, especially since you’ve taken up a patient’s spot, delaying others from seeing their doctor.”
“This… Xiao Xi, you can’t speak so absolutely. Look how excellent my son is. He’s a postgraduate and not bad-looking. Given ti, he will certainly have unlimited prospects. Staying with him would definitely be better than anyone else. Besides, he has already bought a house; you can move to his new place, and his father and I will live in your old house. Young people like you don’t like living with the old folks, right?”
Su ixi was almost infuriated to the point of heart attack. She said coldly, “Auntie, not only are you after , you’re after my old house as well. If you don’t leave now, I will call security.”
“Going, going right away, auntie is leaving, but you must accept these things. And you have to seriously consider what I said. If you marry into our Qi family, we won’t treat you poorly.”
Mrs. Qi spoke as she walked out, then she closed the door behind her.
Su ixi chased after her, but the old woman ran off very quickly, disappearing in no ti.
She returned to the consulting room, looking at the big bags and small bags on the floor and couldn’t help feeling a headache.
…
Su ixi took the things and went to the surgery departnt.
It was almost ti to get off work, and Qi Anran was sitting alone in his consulting room, looking at his phone.
Su ixi knocked on the door, then placed the items at the doorway.
Seeing her co in, Qi Anran was surprised and a flash of excitent crossed his face. He imdiately stood up and walked toward her, “What brings you here?”
