Taming The Hidden Bigshot By Kissing Him Chapter 236 - 236 236 The Original Partner and the Mistress
Chapter 236: Chapter 236: The Original Partner and the Mistress et Again Chapter 236: Chapter 236: The Original Partner and the Mistress et Again Qiao Xi pursed her lips and comforted in a soft voice, “If you’re feeling a lot of pressure, you can talk to . Having one more person is adding one more helping hand. Working at the hospital indeed cos with a lot of pressure, don’t keep it all to yourself.”
It was all bottled up.
Running out in the middle of the night to play Russian Tetris with friends.
Shu Xue looked at her with an indescribable expression and nodded.
“Qiao Xi, I will definitely tell you if I’m under pressure. Last night was just an accident. Don’t think too much about it, I’m quite happy working at the hospital.” Shu Xue couldn’t tell her that Zhou Yu lived in Biyuan.
She wondered if Qiao Xi would think of Zhou Yu.
“Okay.” Qiao Xi nodded, “I’m not running my clinic for now, so I have a lot of free ti. You can ask to go shopping or hang out, anything is fine.”
Clearly, she still didn’t believe her.
Shu Xue took a deep breath and reluctantly accepted Qiao Xi’s kindness.
“Shu Xue, did you break up with your previous boyfriend? I diagnosed your pulse and prescribed dicine last ti, did you drink it when you went back?”
She was deficient in Yin.
“I did, I did.” Shu Xue hurriedly said, “I swear, I really did! We’re about to break up, and my family is urging to go on blind dates. This ti I might not be able to avoid it, the other party is my dad’s colleague’s son.”
Qiao Xi felt a bit regretful, “Are you really going to go on a blind date?”
Shu Xue felt a bit sour in her heart and said, “Blind dates are actually quite good. In this new era, most n and won find their partners through blind dates, otherwise, they’d grow old with just their smartphones. I’m an only child, and ultimately I have to marry according to my parents’ wishes.
n whom I et through blind dates at least co from known backgrounds, and are well-matched in social status. I…”
She dared not hope for Zhou Yu’s level.
It was just that she couldn’t resist his charm.
She had to try hard to get herself back on track.
Qiao Xi held her hand and said, “But I feel like you’re not very happy. If you really don’t want to go on blind dates, just forget it.”
“Let’s not talk about it, I still have to get married.”
Qiao Xi wanted to persuade her further, but then she saw a familiar figure approaching, and she imdiately shut up.
Xu Yunye walked past them with a thermos in hand, his gaze lingering on Qiao Xi for a mont before moving away.
This ti he didn’t stick around to talk to Qiao Xi.
Qiao Xi felt a bit odd.
Watching as he passed through the corridor and headed towards the inpatient departnt.
Shu Xue said softly, “These past two days he has been taking care of Liu Zongyun in the hospital, even more attentively than the orderlies. It’s strange, he used to be nothing but a profligate young master.”
Qiao Xi said, “After all, Liu Zongyun is his uncle.”
Shu Xue found it weird, “Before you left, Liu Zongyun’s condition had already improved. After you left, so many experts couldn’t figure him out, and there’s been no progress at all. Don’t you think that’s odd?”
“He probably suffered a great loss of vital energy the last ti he was in the ergency room.”
Qiao Xi hadn’t taken Liu Zongyun’s pulse again and was unaware of the vigour of his blood and life-force.
Western dicine’s examination of soone in a vegetative state is very limited; they can’t probe into the blood vessels and ridian Qi, only waiting for lesions to appear before they can clearly understand.
“Let’s not talk about others. Do you want to accompany to the blind date next week? It’s kind of awkward going alone.” Shu Xue clasped her hand and coaxed her, “Help a sister out.”
Qiao Xi refused with a smile.
“You can go to the blind date on your own. I need to find Mr. Huo now, I wish you a victorious start!”
“Qiao Xi, you really prioritize love over friendship! Now that you have Huo Xingzhou, am I bumped down to second place?”
Qiao Xi just smiled without speaking.
…
Outside the hospital.
Shen Shiyun clutched the pregnancy check-up report in her hand, quite satisfied.
All the trics had already t the standards.
The doctor said that at her age, it was already quite an accomplishnt that she could maintain herself so well.
The child was very healthy.
She touched her abdon, thought for a mont, and then walked into the bustling mall near the hospital.
In her hand was a large sum of hundreds of thousands in spending money given by Xu Guangyao, a reward for carrying her second child. She could use this money to prepare a birthday gift for Xingluo and buy so baby items for the child in her womb.
All of these needed to be prepared early.
Shen Shiyun twisted her waist and took the sightseeing elevator to the top floor.
This level was filled with high-end brands ant for rich ladies; she dressed no worse than anyone else and was often treated like the wife of a wealthy family whenever she went out.
Shen Shiyun walked into her usual go-to luxury brand store.
“Miss Shen, you’ve arrived. We’ve just received a lot of new items in our store. Here, take a look at this brochure,” the sales assistant kindly invited her to sit on the sofa, attentively serving tea and bringing over so snacks.
She offered a beautifully designed catalog with both hands.
Shen Shiyun’s vanity was greatly satisfied; she ca from a humble background, just a girl from a small town.
She owed everything she had today to Xu Guangyao.
As she flipped through the catalog, she said, “I don’t drink tea, I’m pregnant.”
Her eyes and brows conveyed a sense of pride, as if she wanted to declare it to the entire world.
The sales assistant quickly apologized and replaced her drink with warm water.
“Please bring that pink diamond-encrusted bag to look at,” she pointed at the most conspicuous new item in the catalog, the bag priced at 280,000.
She rembered that Xingluo liked this brand of bags and was particularly fond of pink.
“Miss Shen, we only received one of those bags in our store. Another custor just asked to see it; could you please wait a little longer?”
In the world of luxury goods, the hierarchy was brutal; no matter how much money you had, you had to step aside for those with more.
The sales assistant’s eyes darted towards the direction of the VIP private room, clearly ant for the brand’s top-tier VIPs. While Shen Shiyun only spent about a million a year here, she was considered just a mid-level mber.
She took a deep breath, her desires insatiable.
Just be patient.
“Miss Shen, why don’t you look at sothing else? This sapphire, your mbership level is not high enough,” said the sales assistant hurriedly as she saw Shen Shiyun’s gaze linger on the sapphire necklace.
Shen Shiyun’s good mood was completely disrupted, “What’s left here that hasn’t been picked over?”
Compared to the real wealthy ladies, she was still far behind.
Just then.
The door to the private VIP room opened, and several sales assistants were escorting an elegant woman out.
The lady still had a charming deanor and exceptional poise.
She was dressed simply, but her taste was sophisticated.
Her face was gentle and unadorned, less flirtatious than Shen Shiyun’s, yet much cleaner.
It made Shen Shiyun feel inferior by comparison.
Seeing the familiar face, Shen Shiyun was taken aback.
It was actually Liu Huimin!
She looked a bit older than 22 years ago, but her eyes and brows hardly changed; she still appeared as the princess pampered by the Liu Family from her growth.
Dressed in a cheongsam, she spoke with elegance and grace to the sales assistant, “I’ll take the sapphire necklace and the new bag, and keep an eye out for that pair of dark blue cufflinks.
These are birthday gifts I’m preparing for my son and daughter, and don’t forget about the few dresses I ordered here before. They are for backup options for the birthday party; for the formal dresses, I’ve decided to have them custom-made at a private studio.”
Liu Huimin was there to buy birthday gifts for Xu Xingluo and Xu Yunye.
Shen Shiyun subconsciously wanted to hide; she left the brochure behind and turned to leave.
The sales assistant quickly held out her test report, saying, “Miss Shen, you’ve left your things.”
Shen Shiyun turned back, hurriedly retrieving her items, but in doing so, she locked eyes with Liu Huimin.
