Chapter 57 Calling her "sister-in-law" repeatedly
"You...you...you take the needle away first, I'm afraid of the pain..." Shang Zexi's whole body stiffened.
Xia Yue removed the needle from her neck, but then aimed it at Shang Zexi's eyes.
Shang Zexi was so scared he almost peed his pants!
He confessed instantly!
"My surname is Shang, my given name is Zexi, I'm 24 years old, currently single, I like to sleep in late, I don't like running, my favorite thing is playing video games, I'm a Diamond V player in the King of Glory rank, I'm good at playing support, and I never let my teammates down..."
"Alright, shut up!"
Xia Yue found it offensive to listen to this person spouting a tongue-twister of nonsense.
"What is your relationship with Young Master Qin? Why did you impersonate him to get engaged last time?" Xia Yue went straight to the point.
Shang Zexi honestly replied, "He's my boss. He didn't want to get engaged to you at the time, so he asked me to break off the engagement."
Then, halfway through, I was asked to agree again, and then a misunderstanding inexplicably arose. I didn't mean to deceive you intentionally.
I saw you at Cui Hao's funeral last time, and I actually wanted to explain, but I didn't have time.
"Sister-in-law, let me tell you, this is the Qin family home. Although you are very capable, I advise you to be cautious."
Xia Yue rushed over without intending to do anything to this person. After getting the answer, she put away the golden needles.
Shang Zexi was finally safe and breathed a sigh of relief.
He said with great gratitude, "Thank you so much, sister-in-law, for letting me go!"
"Don't call me sister-in-law. I'm no longer engaged to Young Master Qin," Xia Yue firmly corrected.
Shang Zexi gave an awkward smile and continued to fawn over her, "Yes, yes, then how about I call you Miss Xia instead of sister-in-law?"
"Whatever."
"Miss Xia, what brings you to the Qin family?" Shang Zexi asked in a very friendly manner, as helping his sister-in-law was the same as helping his eldest brother.
Xia Yue is tired of talking about the reasons today.
Even so, she repeated it again.
She came to retrieve the engagement gift that the Xia family had given her.
Upon hearing this, Shang Zexi's expression changed drastically.
Taking back the engagement gift? That's outrageous!
The boss will definitely be unhappy when he finds out.
He originally intended to use money to persuade Xia Yue to let the matter drop.
Xia Yue added, "My grandmother is on the verge of death, and only those elixirs can save her. So if you can contact Young Master Qin and ask him to return the elixirs to me as soon as possible, I am willing to compensate you with some money."
"Miss Xia, please don't say that. Saving a life is better than building a seven-story pagoda!"
My eldest son is an exceptionally good man who is kind-hearted, handsome, good at making money, and loves his wife dearly!
He'll definitely come back immediately after he finds out and return the things to you, so you can rest assured!
Shang Zexi praised Qin Yeting to the fullest extent, making the most of his assists.
A glimmer of hope rose in Xia Yue's heart, and she asked, "Really? He can come back right away?"
"Sure! I'll call him right now, just wait!"
Shang Zexi took out his phone, ran to the corner, and secretly contacted Qin Yeting.
Qin Yeting was at the hospital at the time, discussing Madam Xia's treatment plan with the doctor.
He hung up immediately after seeing Shang Zexi's call.
The most important thing now is to treat Xia Yue's grandmother.
Seeing that his friend had hung up immediately, Shang Zexi had no choice but to send a message: "Your wife is within ten meters of me. Are you sure you don't want to answer the phone?"
Qin Yeting's expression changed again upon seeing this message.
He told the doctor that he had something to take care of, and then immediately called Shang Zexi back!
This time, Shang Zexi let the phone ring but didn't answer it.
After about ten seconds, guessing that his boss was about to arrive following the signal, he slowly answered the phone.
"What's going on? Why is Xiaoyue with you?" Qin Yeting asked directly.
"Of course it's because we're destined to be together~" Shang Zexi said cheekily.
"Do you want to die?" Qin Yeting threatened directly.
Shang Zexi felt a chill run down his neck.
He remembered that Xia Yue had just aimed a needle at his eyes.
These two are both so ruthless; they're truly a match made in heaven.
"Alright, I'll tell you..." Shang Zexi briefly recounted Xia Yue's situation.
After listening, Qin Yeting looked both helpless and amused.
It turns out that Xiaoyue'er left for so long to go to the Qin family.
The key to retrieving the elixir still lies with him.
If he had known this would happen, he should have gone there sooner.
"Okay, thank you for telling me all this. I know what to do now."
Tell Xiaoyue'er that I will return the elixir in two hours.
"First, make sure Xiaoyue'er is safely out of the Qin family. Don't allow anyone to bully her, especially Qin Fei; he's always been restless."
Qin Yeting coldly gave his instructions.
Shang Zexi readily agreed.
He hung up the phone and came back to tell Xia Yue, "My boss agreed and said he'll deliver the elixir in two hours. You can come with me now."
“Two hours? I can wait for him here!” Xia Yue shouted back.
To be honest, she's a little curious now about what kind of person the rumored young master Qin really is.
The rest of the Qin family had previously thought this matter would be difficult to handle and had been making excuses and delays.
How come it was settled so quickly with Shang Zexi?
She wanted to see Young Master Qin in person.
Upon hearing Xia Yue's words, Shang Zexi's expression changed once again!
If Xia Yue were to meet with the boss, wouldn't everything they've been doing lately be exposed?
The eldest brother hasn't won over his wife yet, so he can't be exposed.
Shang Zexi deliberately said, "Do you think you can just see my boss whenever you want? He only agreed because of me."
"Then who are you doing all this for?" Xia Yue retorted.
