Chapter 1029 Extra 27: Glittering Appearance
the next day.
Sun Weimeng went out early in the morning.
Qiao Xi didn't ask too much. She was going to the Chinese Medicine Association to attend a meeting on the eve of the commendation conference today.
It can also be regarded as a chance to meet and communicate with old friends.
Huo Xingzhou accompanied her.
"So you worked overtime for so long at the company just to take time out to accompany me to the capital to attend the commendation meeting." Qiao Xi held his hand and walked into the Chinese Medicine Association, heading towards the clock tower.
Huo Xingzhou hooked her finger and said, "It's so hard to have this little world for the two of us."
At this time, they should thank Zhong Yi for taking care of their children.
"Also, I want to see you stand on the highest podium and realize your dream of studying medicine since childhood."
It will definitely look sparkling.
Qiao Xi's mouth corners turned up and she smiled sweetly.
"Doctor Qiao!"
"Vice President Qiao!"
"It's Dr. Qiao!"
The earlier group still called her "Vice President Qiao," while the fresher, younger faces of the TCM Association followed their elders in calling her "Doctor Qiao." Later, they learned from their colleagues that this was the former apprentice of Cheng Han, a traditional Chinese medicine practitioner.
In the past few years, Dr. Qiao has become almost nationally famous.
"Dr. Qiao, the Plum Blossom Nine Needles you promoted has really benefited me greatly."
"Yes, I didn't expect you to be so young."
Qiao Xi nodded and greeted them one by one. Huo Xingzhou said softly, "I'm lucky to be with you today. People say I'm Dr. Qiao's husband."
Qiao Xi lowered her voice and said, "When I was at Tianyuan Group, they also said I was Mr. Huo's wife. We are even."
They both do well in each other's fields, and no one is an absolute vassal of the other.
"Wait for me in the reception room. I'll come to you after the meeting." Qiao Xi instructed, and Huo Xingzhou nodded.
News of the couple's appearance at the Chinese Medicine Association spread quickly.
Many people came specially to see Qiao Xi. They heard that Dr. Qiao might become the youngest Chinese medicine doctor.
What an honor that is!
While her peers may still be practicing with their masters, she is already far ahead.
"As expected of Mr. Cheng, he is the most gifted doctor!"
"I heard that Qiao's Traditional Chinese Medicine Hall is recruiting, and I'd like to apply. I wonder if I can catch Dr. Qiao's eye."
"So young and beautiful, and with so much success, she must be a winner in life. She has a happy family, a handsome husband, and I heard she has two adorable children. God is so unfair, all the good things fall on one person."
"Thinking of this, I can't help but think of Lu Yingxue in the past."
"Oh, Lu Yingxue! Five years have passed and I heard she's been released from prison. She's been missing ever since. I think she's too embarrassed to stay in the capital anymore. She'll just have to find a place where no one knows her and live out the rest of her life."
Lu Yingxue behaved well in prison. Although she even wanted to die, she finally survived.
After she was released from prison, she didn't contact anyone and no one knew where she went.
Qiao Xi naturally didn't pay attention to this news.
When she entered the large conference room, a familiar feeling came over her.
She thought back to her first time in the capital, sitting in this meeting room. It was still the same conference room, even the layout had barely changed, though it looked a bit brighter than before.
The sunlight from outside shines in, and the entire conference room is bright.
A familiar male voice came from behind her: "I asked someone to knock down another wall and open a window. The previous conference room was too dim, and it made people feel dark. Now there is enough light, and nothing in the dark can be hidden."
Qiao Xi turned around and saw Shen Xuanzhi.
He is more mature than he was five years ago. The world-weary mood in him seems to have dissipated, and he has become more reserved and steady.
"Long time no see, Qiao Xi."
"Long time no see, President Shen."
Shen Xuanzhi had a faint smile on his face and said, "When I heard the three words 'President Shen' from you, I always felt like I had picked up a bargain. I know very well that as long as you have a little idea, this position will be yours."
"Shen Xuanzhi, I can't be as good as you."
Qiao Xi was very self-aware. "Since you've been in this position, I've definitely felt the atmosphere has changed. The current environment for traditional Chinese medicine is very good, and it's inseparable from your hard work day and night."
"Thank you for your approval."
Shen Xuanzhi was also confused.
Should he continue to study the Shen family's bird pecking technique, or take up a management position in the Chinese Medicine Association?
People can only focus on doing one thing at a time. If they want to try to do both, they will probably end up with nothing.
In the end, he chose the Chinese Medicine Association, and he had much less time to improve his medical skills.
Qiao Xi's words made him feel much less guilty.
"Shen Xuanzhi, you did a really good job! It's not just me who thinks so. The old seniors also remember the sacrifices you made. Someone has to sit in this seat, and that person can't be someone who seeks fame and power."
This requires sacrifice on the part of the person who sits in this position.
Qiao Xi really admires Shen Xuanzhi.
If she was asked to give up her medical skills and take charge of management, she would never be able to do it.
Shen Xuanzhi's face showed a bit of relief. "Hearing what you said, my heart is even happier. I have always doubted my choice. In fact, I just want to get some recognition."
He has always respected Qiao Xi.
The words coming out of her mouth seemed more powerful.
Qiao Xi looked at him and changed the subject, "How are you and Miss Guan..."
Shen Xuanzhi had previously said that he and Guan Jingtan had remarried.
She didn't know much about the situation in the imperial capital, but she knew that Guan Jingtan had single-handedly carried the Guan family. She never found a partner again, but she didn't expect to reunite with him five years later.
I don’t know whether they are collaborating this time or have developed feelings for each other.
"fine."
When Shen Xuanzhi mentioned Guan Jingtan, his eyes were filled with an unusual tenderness. "We've been in touch for the past five years. At first, I was helping her family with their health, and then we gradually integrated into each other's work and life. I've let go of the past."
He and Guan Jingtan fell in love with each other over time.
We got together naturally.
So the two of them remarried.
"Just let it go."
Qiao Xi refers to Huo Sijiao.
She thought Shen Xuanzhi would remember Jiaojiao for a long, long time, because that little sun must have left an extremely warm and unforgettable impression in his gloomy life.
"In the imperial capital, I've heard a lot about the love story between Xie Xubai and her. I don't think I can be as good as Xie Xubai, and it was a bit painful at first. But then I gradually became numb. As long as she is happy, I am willing to bless her."
He really let it go.
Qiao Xi smiled and said, "The meeting is about to start. I'm waiting for you to introduce me to the backbone of the Chinese Medicine Association. Let's go in..."
"Um."
