Chapter 300: Shooting Yourself in the Foot
"Misunderstanding?" Xi Lin smiled and shook his head, saying meaningfully, "You really don't understand men well enough."
Doctor Liu rarely refuted him. He just snorted and said, "Why don't you take a piss and look at yourself to see what kind of character you have? With a guy like him, even if he pays money, there may not be a good woman willing to look at him.
Do you really think everyone is like that girl from the Zhuang family, willing to hold anything, whether it's fragrant or smelly, in their arms and cherish it, not afraid of turning into a pile of smelly dog shit one day?"
He still felt uneasy as he spoke, and looked at Song Yanxi and warned: "Girl, you must not be soft-hearted. You can't have a man like this who is unfaithful, ungrateful and narrow-minded."
"Don't worry, Mr. Liu, I won't."
Any part of the body can be soft except the heart.
Especially to Lin Tingfeng.
She not only wants a divorce letter, but also his life.
Hearing Song Yanxi say this, Xi Lin finally breathed a sigh of relief and said silently in his heart: "Finally, I didn't let my brother down."
Not missing the glint of joy that flashed across his eyes, Song Yanxi suppressed the helplessness that welled up in her heart and asked, "Doctor Xi have any disciples?"
"Disciple? This thing can't be eaten or drunk, and if you're broke you can't sell it for money. What's the point of having it?"
Xi Lin raised an eyebrow, "Why are you asking this for no reason? Are you planning to take in a disciple?"
Doctor Liu looked at him, then at Song Yanxi, and answered for her, "Is it you?"
"Me?" Xi Lin smiled and said nonchalantly, "I can't teach any apprentices, so I'd better not mislead the students."
Song Yanxi asked with a faint smile: "How will you know if you don't try, Doctor Xi?"
"That's not necessary."
Fearing that he would be forced to buy if he spoke too late, Xi Lin decisively said to himself, "I have a bad character, a bad temper, a sharp tongue, and I might even hit people when I'm drunk. Which good family would be willing to leave their child to me?
Isn't this just getting off?
No, no, absolutely not."
Listening to his clear understanding of himself, Doctor Liu almost nodded and agreed that what he said made sense.
But he changed his mind and thought about the intention behind Song Yanxi's action. He cleared his throat and said righteously, "What Divine Doctor Xi said is wrong. How can one be so self-deprecating?"
When Xi Lin heard this familiar opening line, he knew that what he was going to say was definitely not good, so he looked at Song Yanxi and said, "You go ahead."
Afraid that Doctor Liu wouldn't give in, he added, "Give me a reason. If it makes sense, I'll take it."
As for what the standard of acceptable is, isn't it up to him alone to decide?
Xi Lin had a good idea, but he forgot two sentences.
The first sentence is: "Man proposes, God disposes."
And another is: "Old ginger is still spicy."
Doctor Liu waited for this sentence and said decisively: "If Lao Chang knew about this in the afterlife, he would definitely not refuse."
Xi Lin was puzzled, "What does this have to do with Doctor Chang?"
As soon as he said this, a thin figure appeared in his mind.
It’s the kid named Changjiu.
So these two people in front of him were singing the same tune in order to make him agree to accept that child as his apprentice?
After realizing this, Xi Lin's hairs stood on end and he said without hesitation, "I disagree!"
Song Yanxi: "But what's wrong?"
Doctor Liu: "It's fine if you don't want to take me in. At least give me a reasonable reason."
If it was Song Yanxi, Xi Lin could just use the excuse of being unwell or some other excuse to get away with it.
As for what Military Doctor Liu said, he had no way to deal with it.
Whether it is justifiable or what is justifiable is all a matter of what others say.
Even if he spoke eloquently and racked his brains to come up with a hundred reasons, the old man would just say "that's unacceptable".
There is no doubt that he is capable of doing such a thing.
So now, is he shooting himself in the foot?
Xi Lin felt like crying, but he also felt that it was pathetic for a grown man to shed tears over such a small matter, and it would only make him a laughing stock.
He paced anxiously for a while before he finally made up his mind. He said with determination, "It's just an apprentice, an extra mouth to feed. I can afford it."
Song Yanxi and Doctor Liu looked at each other and saw the relief in each other's eyes.
Xi Lin snorted, somewhat angrily saying, "You can take it back, but let me be frank. If I can't teach him a lesson or if I ruin him, don't say anything."
He emphasized, "You are not allowed to tell anyone about it, dead or alive."
"No need to tell." Doctor Liu agreed readily.
Xi Lin looked at Song Yanxi again, and when he saw that she nodded, he breathed a sigh of relief.
But when he thought about traveling around the world in the future, with someone following him at all times, and someone calling him "Master" all the time, he felt very irritated.
How about raising him for a while, and then finding a random excuse to say that the two of them, master and disciple, don't get along, and have someone send him back?
Xi Lin was about to sigh at his own brilliant mind when he suddenly heard Song Yanxi sigh, "Military Doctor Chang has worked in the army for half his life and is truly an admirable elder.
If he knew in his afterlife that the younger generation he cared about the most had Doctor Xi as a mentor, he would surely be pleased.
If it weren't for the fact that he was secretly exerting force with his hands behind his back, Doctor Liu really wanted to praise her while laughing and ask her to say more if she could speak.
He pinched himself hard, suppressed a smile and said, "Old Chang loved you the most when he was alive. If he knew, he would surely rest in peace in the underworld."
Hearing this, Xi Lin curled the corners of his mouth, feeling that he had something to say but didn't know whether he should say it.
He admitted that Doctor Chang was indeed a good person. He was honest and kind, treated people gently, and never used his qualifications to bully others.
but!
When did he become the person that Doctor Chang loves the most?
The person they love the most is obviously Mo Jinchuan!
But I have to say that although Old Man Chang is nice to everyone, he is also very nice to him.
If it were anyone else, he would never fall for it.
Seeing that it was getting late, Doctor Liu urged, "It's almost dark. The child has been busy all day for you as his master, and you don't even feel sorry for him."
"It hurts, how can I not feel hurt?"
Xi Lin didn't bother to think about the hint of something wrong in his words, and turned around and walked out.
Once a teacher, always a father.
Now that he has become his apprentice, he will not allow anyone to bully him.
Even he, as a master, can't do it!
Knowing that Xi Lin had excellent hearing, Doctor Liu waited until the footsteps outside the tent disappeared, then he stood up and lifted the curtain to make sure that the person had really left, and then he laughed out loud with relief.
He said, "This kid has been out for two years and is still so easy to fool. Fortunately, he didn't get cheated."
Song Yanxi took out two ingots of silver from the medicine box and handed them to him, asking, "How do you know, Mr. Liu, that he's not deliberately playing along with us?"
