NOVPUBChapter 394 -278 Price_2
Sister Li brought Xie Wenlong over to Sheng Qianmei and immediately spared no effort in promoting her own son.
Xie Wenlong, with a humble look on his face, said, 鈥淢om, why talk about these things? Miss Sheng is interested in traditional Chinese medicine, not my career and income.鈥
He spoke as such, yet his face couldn鈥檛 hide the smugness.
鈥淗aha, you boy, why so modest? Alright, mom won鈥檛 say more, you two are about the same age, just chat more among yourselves,鈥 Aunt Xu said, laughing in agreement.
Xie Wenlong, with a smile he believed to be the most affable, said, 鈥淢iss Sheng, I am Xie Wenlong, very pleased to meet you. I鈥檝e heard you are quite interested in traditional Chinese medicine; we really should have a good talk. Although I haven鈥檛 mastered my father鈥檚 profound medical skills, I have learned a bit.鈥
Having said that, he smiled and reached out his hand towards Sheng Qianmei. He couldn鈥檛 help but let his gaze fall on her soft, delicate hand, which seemed boneless, feeling a fire inside him and curious about the sensation of holding that small hand.
...
However, Sheng Qianmei responded indifferently, 鈥淪orry, I have a thing about cleanliness, so I鈥檇 rather not shake hands.鈥
While speaking, she stealthily glanced at Liu Wentian鈥檚 expression, as if worried that he might misunderstand something.
鈥淓rr鈥︹€
Upon hearing Sheng Qianmei鈥檚 chilly words, Xie Wenlong鈥檚 face stiffened, embarrassment written all over it.
Seeing the sudden drop in the atmosphere, Aunt Xu hastily put on an annoyed expression, smacked Xie Wenlong鈥檚 hand that was hanging in mid-air, and laughed, 鈥淪illy child, Qianmei is a Western medicine practitioner; lots of them have a thing for cleanliness. Don鈥檛 you even understand that?鈥
Xie Wenlong immediately took the hint and withdrew his hand, cheerfully saying, 鈥淩ight, right, I really don鈥檛 know much about Western medicine, but I do plan to learn about it in the future. Keeping up with the times, combining Chinese and Western medicine, you know. By the way, Miss Sheng, my mother mentioned that you are an expert in Western medicine, a doctoral student at Yale Medical School. I will have to ask for your guidance in the future.鈥
Sheng Qianmei, having been acquainted with Aunt Xu for a while, found it awkward to let the situation get too uncomfortable, so she said, 鈥淪tudying Western medicine is good, but my knowledge is also limited, and I can鈥檛 really give much guidance.鈥
潡堭潣佛潣潣?co
After finishing, she didn鈥檛 wait for him to speak again and turned to Aunt Xu, 鈥淎unt Xu, is the conference about to start? If it鈥檚 starting, shall we go in now?鈥
Aunt Xu smiled and said, 鈥淎lmost time, let鈥檚 go in now.鈥
As she spoke, she gave Xie Wenlong a meaningful look, urging him to be more proactive, and Xie Wenlong immediately caught on.
At that moment, his heart was brimming with adoration for Sheng Qianmei. A woman with cleanliness issues; doesn鈥檛 it mean that her body has never been touched by anyone? A top grade beauty, and yet pure as jade 鈥 at that moment, 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 Qianmei with a smile, when suddenly his face changed, and not just his, Aunt Xu鈥檚 expression turned awful too!
To his astonishment, Sheng Qianmei took the initiative to hold Liu Wentian鈥檚 hand and pulled him along to proceed together!
Xie Wenlong had never taken a bicycle-riding dork seriously, but at that moment, he was consumed with jealousy and wished he could tear Liu Wentian into pieces!!
Meanwhile, he cursed inside, 鈥榃asn鈥檛 she supposed to have a cleanliness issue?? What now, why is she holding that kid鈥檚 hand!!鈥
The current situation made it unequivocally clear that even if Sheng Qianmei had a cleanliness issue, it certainly didn鈥檛 prevent her from having close contact with that man by her side!!
Liu Wentian was also surprised when Sheng Qianmei suddenly grabbed his hand, but he just laughed and said to Aunt Xu, 鈥淚 guess my bike can鈥檛 be taken in, right? Should we wait here while I find a place to park it? I can鈥檛 just leave it at someone鈥檚 front door.鈥
Seething with jealousy, Xie Wenlong couldn鈥檛 help but mock, 鈥淏ike? Haha, you actually dare to call that a bike?鈥
鈥淲enlong, what are you saying?鈥
Aunt Xu glared at Xie Wenlong, then, with an unpleasant expression, said to Liu Wentian, 鈥淎lright, you go park your bike first, we鈥檒l wait for you.鈥
Liu Wentian smiled, gave Xie Wenlong a look, then proceeded to walk with Sheng Qianmei at his side, pushing his bicycle toward a spot to park.
Watching Liu Wentian and Sheng Qianmei walk away, an exasperated Xie Wenlong blurted out, 鈥淢om, why are you speaking up for that kid? Proud of a broken bicycle, what an ignorant bumpkin!!鈥
Aunt Xu, seeing Xie Wenlong鈥檚 face turn red with frustration, frowned disapprovingly and said, 鈥淓nough, look at yourself now. Have some patience! Qianmei might feel affection for that boy now, but so what? Do you really think you can鈥檛 compete with him? Calm down, with your father and me helping you, she will ultimately be yours!!鈥
Reassured by these words, Xie Wenlong realized he might have been too agitated. He quite fancied the woman he had just met and after thinking it over, agreed with his mother. He nodded and said, 鈥淟ater, I鈥檒l ask my dad to come and meet Qianmei. My father is a renowned figure in the field of Chinese medicine, and he鈥檚 hosting this conference too. Sheng Qianmei likes traditional Chinese medicine; she will be thrilled if my dad strikes up a conversation.鈥
鈥淎s long as you understand, with her interest in traditional Chinese medicine, and you being a skilled practitioner yourself, plus with my help and your father鈥檚 introduction, why would you be afraid of not being able to win over that fellow?鈥
Seeing her son finally come to his senses, Aunt Xu鈥檚 face brightened with a smile, and she added, 鈥淚f it still doesn鈥檛 work out, your master will also be here today. Just mention to Qianmei that you plan to introduce her to your master, and she鈥檚 bound to be ecstatic!!鈥
