Chapter 466: Boundless Pampering

Xiao Jie was a little surprised when he heard this. He was surprised that his master was never a person who liked gossip or complain.

But why did what I just said sound so sour?

So he continued tentatively, "There's another little thing, also about Doctor Tu. Master, do you want to hear it?"

Nie Xiu looked at Xiao Jie coldly and frowned slightly.

Is there any need to ask?

Xiao Jie quickly swallowed and continued, "Gu Xixing, the president of Chengtian Pharmaceutical, also went to Dr. Sun's clinic today. He said he wanted to consult a doctor."

"He doesn't know how to avoid suspicion."

"It's ridiculous that someone who develops medicines at home still seeks medical advice from others."

"Yes, Mr. Gu had a scandal with Dr. Tu before."

"But it was all Mr. Gu's impulsiveness. The scandal was deliberately fabricated by someone to discredit Dr. Tu. Dr. Tu deliberately kept his distance from him, but he was also impulsive."

Nie Xiu remained silent, of course he knew.

The man surnamed Gu didn't get any response from Tu Ran. To put it bluntly, it was just a feeling of failure, so there was no need to worry too much.

"Dr. Tu is very diligent and often cleans the upstairs himself."

"The second floor of the clinic was not used before, but now that you go there so often, Doctor Tu has become concerned."

Nie Xiu just snorted coldly, "I didn't see how much she cared about it, but she does know how to piss me off."

"No way, I feel like Doctor Tu has a sharp tongue but a soft heart."

"That means there's something wrong with your feelings."

Xiao Jie didn't dare to say anything. Nie Xiu sat on the rocking chair in the yard and looked up at the sky.

At this time, it was already late in the evening, and the stars were only a few in number. The quietness on the hillside gave people an unreal illusion.

Somehow, a beautiful figure suddenly flashed through Nie Xiu's mind.

The lavender Tang Dynasty costume and a face without any makeup were enough to make him stunning for half a century.

Perhaps only he himself knew the surprise that flashed across his eyes.

For a man of his status, showing emotions is simply seeking death.

But as smart as he was, he probably guessed that he had begun to have strange feelings towards that person.

At 8:30 in the evening, Xie Nancheng finished his social engagements early and returned to Tianyi Pavilion.

In fact, it was still early, but a certain big shot insisted on staying with Lu Zhiang in order to accompany his wife.

Since they both started working on new energy projects, they have been constantly entertaining guests and interacting with official leaders, so they cannot neglect them.

Xie Nancheng reported this to Tu Ran in advance, but Tu Ran didn't really care.

She firmly believed that character was the most important thing. If Xie Nancheng was that kind of person, it would be impossible to watch him. Even if you watched him 24 hours a day, he would still find a way to cheat.

If he is not that kind of person, there is no need for you to keep an eye on him, he will know his limits.

Of course, Lu Zhiang had complaints about this, and he even grumbled, "It's as if you're the only one with a wife."

"Then you really didn't." A certain big shot replied heartbreakingly.

When Xie Nancheng came back, he had a box of ice cream in his hand.

I kept buying strawberries and Tu Ran almost vomited when he saw them.

"You're back?"

At this time, Tu Ran had already turned off the computer and was mopping the floor in the living room.

"You can just hire a cleaning lady for these, why do you do it yourself?"

"I have hands and feet, so I do it when I have free time and it's just exercise." Tu Ran didn't deliberately show how hardworking he was. He would never hesitate to hire a cleaner when it was time, but he did enjoy the satisfaction and sense of accomplishment that cleaning brought him when he had free time.

"Don't be busy yet, come and eat quickly."

Xie Nancheng bought boxes of ice cream. He opened the bag, took out the ice cream and put it on the table.

"What?" Tu Ran was curious.

"ice cream."

"You're giving me this at night? It's very high in calories."

"So you are afraid of getting fat too." The boss gloated.

"Isn't that nonsense? I'm a normal person too, why wouldn't I be afraid of getting fat? Besides, eating too much ice cream is bad for your spleen and stomach. Don't you remember Tongtong's previous experience?"

Everyone in the Xie family knew how many Chinese medicines Tu Ran had prescribed to Xie Jiatong to regulate her spleen and stomach.

"It's okay to eat it once in a while."

"You, don't be so old-fashioned. It's good to be a little unrestrained."

"You're not an old man, you're just a girl in her early twenties."

Xie Nancheng spoke very naturally, without any intention of coaxing her.

Tu Ran was stunned for a moment and found that what he said was right.

So I always feel that I am very old mentally, but she is indeed only in her early twenties and is still in college.

"Come on, open your mouth."

"Husband feeds you."

Xie Nancheng picked up a spoon, scooped out a piece of ice cream and put it to Tu Ran's mouth.

"Xie Nancheng, are you cheesy?"

Having said that, Tu Ran still opened his mouth obediently.

"I heard all girls like ice cream."

"We boys don't like this and can't experience this kind of happiness."

"This brand is an old store in Xiangcheng and has been open for more than 20 years."

"I've had it since I was a kid. Have you ever eaten it?"

Tu Ran shook his head.

"Don't you have any in your town?" Xie Nancheng was curious.

"No."

Maybe because I studied medicine since I was a child, I am not very interested in cold things.

The same has been true in the past few years since she came to Xiangcheng. When she was at the Lin family, Lin Siyao drank milk tea, iced American coffee, cappuccino, juice and other fancy drinks every day.

Tu Ran had no interest at all. Mrs. Lin occasionally bought some for her, but she didn't like them.

Now that I think about it, maybe what she disliked was never the drinks, but the hypocritical attitude.

Mrs. Lin was somewhat falsely enthusiastic towards her at first.

Later it gradually turned into indifference and disregard.

If she hadn't been diligent and often helped with the work, Mrs. Lin would have been fed up with her long ago.

Living under someone else's roof has never been easy, especially when she has no blood relationship with that person.

But the man in front of him was different.

Whenever he found something good, he would buy some for her.

Sometimes it's fruit, sometimes it's dessert.

Sometimes it's flowers, and I've even bought herbs.

He treated her well in such a primitive way, with genuine kindness.

Even someone as slow to warm up as her melted little by little under his enthusiasm.

"Xie Nancheng."

"Call me husband." The boss complained dissatisfiedly.

The spoon in his hand did not stop, and he even tasted it himself, "Hmm, it tastes really good, not too sweet."

"Xie Nancheng, if one day you find out...I'm not who you thought I was."

"Will you still like me?"

"What do you mean? You want to transform, into the Hulk? Or into Sailor Moon?" Xie Nancheng rubbed Tu Ran's nose with his fingers lovingly.

Tu Ran: ...

"Speak nicely."

"Are you talking nicely? You were talking nonsense to me first, so how can I answer?" Xie Nancheng didn't take it seriously at all.

"What I mean is, if the side I show now is fake and pretentious, and I actually have another side, will you be disappointed in me?" Tu Ran looked at him closely without any intention of joking.
