457 Sore Spot
“Miss Qin, I’m really sorry. Xu Jiao didn’t mean that. Don’t misunderstand.”
After all, Qin Xi was a guest invited by the old man. Xu Haisheng had to respect her. Besides, it was indeed Xu Jiao who was in the wrong.
Just as he was thinking this, he heard Xu Linfeng mock without hesitation.
“Xu Jiao, why are you making things difficult for Miss Qin? Besides, Miss Qin is an esteemed guest invited by Grandpa, but you want to use her. Fortunately, Miss Qin is a magnanimous person.”
With every word Xu Linfeng said, Xu Jiao’s face turned paler. She clenched the corner of her clothes tightly with tears welling up in her eyes.
“Brother Linfeng, that’s not what I meant. I… I was just too anxious. I was too worried about Sister Wu.” Her voice was soft and gentle with a hint of sobbing.
“Alright, stop crying. The guest is still here.”
Elder Xu suddenly felt that Xu Jiao was not as naive as she looked on the surface. His eyes darkened slightly.
After the old man spoke, Xu Jiao held back her tears and immediately lowered her head obediently. “Got it, Grandpa.”
At this moment, Cheng Ronghua glanced at Qin Xi and then at her outstanding sons. She was tempted.
Since everyone said that Qin Xi’s medical skills were brilliant, why not let her try? If Qin Xi could really save Xu Wu, she would not mind letting her sons get to know Qin Xi more.
If Qin Xi was just bragging, her sons would definitely be disgusted with her.
It had to be said that Cheng Ronghua and Xu Jiao were really birds of a feather.
“Actually, Jiao is right. Although Miss Qin is our guest, as a doctor, she naturally won’t ignore the patient. It’s only natural for Jiao to say that. Miss Qin, if it’s convenient, please help. If you can really treat Xu Wu, the Xu family will reward you. It doesn’t matter if you can’t treat her. What do you think, Miss Qin?”
Cheng Ronghua looked at Qin Xi and smiled kindly, not as hostile as before.
Liu Su bit her lower lip. A trace of pain flashed across her eyes and her entire body was trembling.
Her daughter was a sore spot to her.. How dare they poke it and expose her scar freely? Just as she was about to say something, the old lady spoke.
Her voice was neither loud nor soft, but it was enough to let the Xu family know that the old lady was furious.
“Xu Haiping, discipline your wife. If she dares to spout nonsense again, you two can pack your things and leave.”
Xu Haiping was stunned. No one expected the old lady to be so hard on them because of an outsider.
Cheng Ronghua’s expression changed drastically, and her face turned red as if she had been slapped in public. She opened her mouth but did not dare to say anything in the end and sat down obediently.
“Miss, I’m sorry. My family is too noisy… Please don’t take it to heart,” Elder Xu said at the right time and sighed faintly.
Hearing the old man apologize, everyone held their breaths. What kind of person was the old man? How could he apologize to a little girl?
“Elder Xu, you must be joking. It’s nothing.”
Qin Xi did not mind and smiled faintly. “My medical skills are just alright. If Elder Xu trusts me, I can take a look at the patient.”
