Chapter 394: Chapter 278 Price_2
Sister Li brought Xie Wenlong over to Sheng Qiani and imdiately spared no effort in promoting her own son.
Xie Wenlong, with a humble look on his face, said, “Mom, why talk about these things? Miss Sheng is interested in traditional Chinese dicine, not my career and inco.”
He spoke as such, yet his face couldn’t hide the smugness.
“Haha, you boy, why so modest? Alright, mom won’t say more, you two are about the sa age, just chat more among yourselves,” Aunt Xu said, laughing in agreent.
Xie Wenlong, with a smile he believed to be the most affable, said, “Miss Sheng, I am Xie Wenlong, very pleased to et you. I’ve heard you are quite interested in traditional Chinese dicine; we really should have a good talk. Although I haven’t mastered my father’s profound dical skills, I have learned a bit.”
Having said that, he smiled and reached out his hand towards Sheng Qiani. He couldn’t help but let his gaze fall on her soft, delicate hand, which seed boneless, feeling a fire inside him and curious about the sensation of holding that small hand.
...
However, Sheng Qiani responded indifferently, “Sorry, I have a thing about cleanliness, so I’d rather not shake hands.”
While speaking, she stealthily glanced at Liu Wentian’s expression, as if worried that he might misunderstand sothing.
“Err…”
Upon hearing Sheng Qiani’s chilly words, Xie Wenlong’s face stiffened, embarrassnt written all over it.
Seeing the sudden drop in the atmosphere, Aunt Xu hastily put on an annoyed expression, smacked Xie Wenlong’s hand that was hanging in mid-air, and laughed, “Silly child, Qiani is a Western dicine practitioner; lots of them have a thing for cleanliness. Don’t you even understand that?”
Xie Wenlong imdiately took the hint and withdrew his hand, cheerfully saying, “Right, right, I really don’t know much about Western dicine, but I do plan to learn about it in the future. Keeping up with the tis, combining Chinese and Western dicine, you know. By the way, Miss Sheng, my mother ntioned that you are an expert in Western dicine, a doctoral student at Yale dical School. I will have to ask for your guidance in the future.”
Sheng Qiani, having been acquainted with Aunt Xu for a while, found it awkward to let the situation get too uncomfortable, so she said, “Studying Western dicine is good, but my knowledge is also limited, and I can’t really give much guidance.”
After finishing, she didn’t wait for him to speak again and turned to Aunt Xu, “Aunt Xu, is the conference about to start? If it’s starting, shall we go in now?”
Aunt Xu smiled and said, “Almost ti, let’s go in now.”
As she spoke, she gave Xie Wenlong a aningful look, urging him to be more proactive, and Xie Wenlong imdiately caught on.
At that mont, his heart was brimming with adoration for Sheng Qiani. A woman with cleanliness issues; doesn’t it an that her body has never been touched by anyone? A top grade beauty, and yet pure as jade – at that mont, Xie Wenlong felt he was the luckiest man, thinking that as long as he could win this woman over, he would have succeeded in life!
He was about to continue conversing with Sheng Qiani with a smile, when suddenly his face changed, and not just his, Aunt Xu’s expression turned awful too!
To his astonishnt, Sheng Qiani took the initiative to hold Liu Wentian’s hand and pulled him along to proceed together!
Xie Wenlong had never taken a bicycle-riding dork seriously, but at that mont, he was consud with jealousy and wished he could tear Liu Wentian into pieces!!
anwhile, he cursed inside, ‘Wasn’t she supposed to have a cleanliness issue?? What now, why is she holding that kid’s hand!!’
The current situation made it unequivocally clear that even if Sheng Qiani had a cleanliness issue, it certainly didn’t prevent her from having close contact with that man by her side!!
Liu Wentian was also surprised when Sheng Qiani suddenly grabbed his hand, but he just laughed and said to Aunt Xu, “I guess my bike can’t be taken in, right? Should we wait here while I find a place to park it? I can’t just leave it at soone’s front door.”
Seething with jealousy, Xie Wenlong couldn’t help but mock, “Bike? Haha, you actually dare to call that a bike?”
“Wenlong, what are you saying?”
Aunt Xu glared at Xie Wenlong, then, with an unpleasant expression, said to Liu Wentian, “Alright, you go park your bike first, we’ll wait for you.”
Liu Wentian smiled, gave Xie Wenlong a look, then proceeded to walk with Sheng Qiani at his side, pushing his bicycle toward a spot to park.
Watching Liu Wentian and Sheng Qiani walk away, an exasperated Xie Wenlong blurted out, “Mom, why are you speaking up for that kid? Proud of a broken bicycle, what an ignorant bumpkin!!”
Aunt Xu, seeing Xie Wenlong’s face turn red with frustration, frowned disapprovingly and said, “Enough, look at yourself now. Have so patience! Qiani might feel affection for that boy now, but so what? Do you really think you can’t compete with him? Calm down, with your father and helping you, she will ultimately be yours!!”
Reassured by these words, Xie Wenlong realized he might have been too agitated. He quite fancied the woman he had just t and after thinking it over, agreed with his mother. He nodded and said, “Later, I’ll ask my dad to co and et Qiani. My father is a renowned figure in the field of Chinese dicine, and he’s hosting this conference too. Sheng Qiani likes traditional Chinese dicine; she will be thrilled if my dad strikes up a conversation.”
“As long as you understand, with her interest in traditional Chinese dicine, and you being a skilled practitioner yourself, plus with my help and your father’s introduction, why would you be afraid of not being able to win over that fellow?”
Seeing her son finally co to his senses, Aunt Xu’s face brightened with a smile, and she added, “If it still doesn’t work out, your master will also be here today. Just ntion to Qiani that you plan to introduce her to your master, and she’s bound to be ecstatic!!”
