Chapter 117 This Is My Husband
Her words were unclear, but every word hit Hu Quanwen's sore spot, making him furious.
"How dare you, little girl, curse me? I will teach you a lesson!"
Hu Quanwen roared and signaled the two followers around him to take action. For a moment, the atmosphere in the entire clinic was extremely tense.
At this tense moment, a clear and pleasant voice sounded, breaking the dullness in the room: "Who dares to be so presumptuous in my clinic?"
Everyone looked in the direction of the voice and saw Wanyu slowly walking down the stairs from the second floor holding a folding fan. Each step she took seemed so calm and unhurried, and extremely elegant.
Hu Quanwen straightened his back and argued, "It was clearly your doctor who was deliberately provoking trouble with his words. As a local squire, shouldn't I teach her a lesson to set things right?"
Wanyu still looked calm and composed, the fan in her hand swayed gently, bringing gusts of cool breeze. She smiled and said, "I won't miss any details. The facts clearly show that you were the first to stir up trouble with your words, and our doctor only responded based on professional ethics and reason. I didn't expect you to be so vulnerable. If you continue to make trouble here, I'm afraid we will have to ask the government to judge the right and wrong."
Hu Quanwen, who felt that he was in the wrong, cursed continuously and left in a hurry with his entourage. Before leaving, he did not forget to cast a threatening look at Chen Xi, trying to save some face.
However, Chen Xi, facing Mr. Hu who once intended to buy her as a concubine, felt that he had long lost any deterrent power.
Wanyu approached Chen Xi, her eyes full of concern, and asked softly: "Who is that person, and why did he have to trouble you?"
Chen Xi sighed softly and said, "He is Mr. Hu. My wet nurse wanted to sell me to him as a concubine because she coveted his wealth and power. Fortunately, I did not give in. Today, he ran into you in the clinic and heard you calling my name. He thought of me and even ridiculously wanted to make me his concubine."
"I can't believe that there are such shameless people in the world!" Wanyu frowned, obviously shocked by such behavior.
Chen Xi spoke calmly, but revealed the shocking truth: "He has many wives and concubines in his house, and it is said that he enjoys torturing them, causing the deaths of several innocent women."
Although these words were said calmly, they made the listeners feel cold.
Wanyu was filled with righteous indignation and said, "How can such a bully still be at large? If he does evil again next time, I will immediately ask Feng Junyuan to bring people to arrest him!"
Chen Xi's eyes flashed with a cunning light, "No need to wait until next time, he came to seek medical treatment because he was infected with syphilis, I added some sterilizing herbs to his medicine, I'm afraid he won't be able to do whatever he wants in the future."
"Well done! You have to be ruthless when dealing with people like this." Wanyu clapped her hands in praise, her eyes full of approval.
Changing the topic, Chen Xi looked at Wanyu with a smile, "Feng Junyuan you mentioned before, is there any new progress in your relationship?"
Wanyu blushed slightly and said shyly, "There is no progress at all. We just met a few times."
"Oh, you two are really something. You clearly have feelings for each other, but you are so passive. It makes the bystanders anxious." Chen Xi laughed, with a mischievous look in his eyes.
On the other side, after saying goodbye to Chen Xi, Xie Tianyi stepped into the bustling vegetable market. Holding the list left by Chen Xi, he carefully selected green peppers, tomatoes, and carrots. Then, according to the instructions, he bought fat pig's trotters, fat intestines, ribs, and pork belly.
His arms were hung with all kinds of packages, his backpack was stuffed full, and even his hands were filled with a lot of things.
Xie Tianyi walked forward with a heavy load, and every step seemed quite strenuous, but he still insisted on walking to the gate of Chen Xi Medical Clinic.
When he looked up, he saw Chen Xi chatting and laughing with a woman. He understood what she meant and chose to linger at the door, not rushing forward to interrupt their conversation.
Chen Xi keenly sensed Xie Tianyi's presence and immediately waved for him to come in.
When Xie Tianyi stepped into the door, Wanyu's eyes were full of curiosity. She looked up and down at the man who suddenly appeared and asked, "Who is this..."
Chen Xi's face was full of pride, and he introduced generously: "This is my husband, Xie Tianyi."
Then he turned to Xie Tianyi and introduced: "This is the head of our clinic, Wanyu."
Upon hearing this, the two nodded in understanding and greeted each other politely.
Wanyu quietly pulled Chen Xi over and whispered in surprise: "Didn't you say before that your husband was in poor health and had difficulty moving? How come he can move freely now?"
Chen Xi's face was filled with a sense of accomplishment. "When I first met him, it was indeed as you said, but after my careful treatment, he gradually recovered. My medical skills sometimes even surprise myself."
When talking about his medical skills, Chen Xi couldn't help but show off a little.
Wanyu was also full of admiration for Chen Xi's medical skills. It was self-evident how hard it was to enable a long-term bedridden patient to stand up and walk again.
"Your medical skills have reached perfection. I have to protect you like a rare treasure. Otherwise, if you are poached by another place with a high salary one day, I will suffer a great loss." She said half-jokingly and half-seriously.
"Of course, I am a rare talent, hehehe."
Chen Xi laughed at himself. The relationship between him and Wanyu had already gone beyond ordinary courtesies. What they had was a deep friendship and understanding.
The two smiled at each other, and the tacit understanding between them that did not require any words flowed through their eye contact.
Wanyu looked at Xie Tianyi again and said sincerely: "To be honest, your husband is really good. He is handsome and his words and deeds are all gentlemanly. You really found a treasure."
Chen Xi looked very proud, "Of course I will say that!"
The setting sun was hanging low in the sky, and the sky was gradually dyed with golden light. After a deep conversation, Chen Xi and Yulan said goodbye reluctantly.
The two of them left the clinic briskly and started their journey home.
Walking out of the clinic, Chen Xi's eyes involuntarily fell on the seemingly heavy backpack on Xie Tianyi's shoulders, which was filled with daily necessities purchased that day.
Seeing this, Chen Xi's heart tightened, and he instinctively wanted to share this weight.
However, Xie Tianyi shook his head resolutely, with a gentle smile on his face: "Leave it to me, this is what a man should do."
A warm current surged in Chen Xi's heart. He nodded gratefully and decided not to argue anymore.
Arriving at the oxcart waiting point, the afterglow of the setting sun illuminated a group of waiting figures, among whom Xu Gaoping's figure was particularly eye-catching.
Chen Xi had sharp eyes and spotted this familiar face in the crowd at a glance. Xu Gaoping also seemed to have noticed their arrival, and immediately walked up to them with a brisk pace and a big smile on his face.
