Chapter 132 Xie Lanzhi's ambition, Ah Shu's bottom line (revised)

Qin Shu held the wooden guardrail with one hand, watching the ladies whom she had called aunt and auntie before, all in a mess.

Madam Xie was relatively calm, with a smile that did not reach her eyes, and walked out in shock.

The huge living room became empty in the blink of an eye.

"Young Madam, let's find a hidden place."

Uncle Quan's low reminder sounded beside Qin Shu.

She turned around and asked in confusion, "Why?"

Uncle Quan explained, "Mr. Qi's guard of honor will also come in. Those people are very sharp and will take action immediately if they sense something is wrong."

Qin Shu remembered the guards who followed the big leaders when they traveled on TV in her previous life.

Those people were not good people. Just a look revealed a fierce sense of oppression.

Qin Shu listened very well and found a hidden place with Uncle Quan to observe secretly.

"Hahaha... Old Xie, you are still lucky among us brothers!"

A full-bodied, hearty and majestic laugh rang out.

"Lan Zhi is young and promising, and his wife is pregnant with twins. I want to share in his good fortune."

Xie's father laughed, "If you want to share in his good fortune, I can pack him up and send him to you. Why bother running all the way? It's too risky."

The strange old man's voice rang again.

"Give him to me? Are you willing? Even if you are willing, my sister-in-law won't agree!"

"Right at our doorstep, what's the risk? I heard that Lan Zhi married a young doctor?"

Xie's father said humbly, "The child is young and can't bear such a heavy title. Don't lift her up."

Qin Shu soon saw a team of ceremonial guards with full aura and domineering spirit rushing into the living room.

They were guarding every corner of the living room, scanning the surroundings with oppressive eyes.

Qin Shu accidentally met a guard's sinister eyes.

Her breathing stagnated, and her body subconsciously hid backward.

Downstairs, there was a slow rhythm of footsteps.

The three people from the Xie family came in with an old man who had white hair but a good complexion.

Xie Lanzhi, who was a step behind, glanced at the place where Qin Shu was hiding with his deep eyes shining with brilliance.

In the living room.

Father Xie invited everyone to take a seat, and said in a familiar tone: "Please sit down, I'll ask someone to serve tea, it's Biluochun, right?"

Old Qi sat on the sofa relaxedly as if he was back home, smiling amiably.

"This is it. It's not bitter or astringent, and tastes just right."

Father Xie turned to his son and said, "Lanzhi, go make tea for Uncle Qi yourself."

"Yes, father--"

Xie Lanzhi, who was reserved and had a gentle and humble look, turned and walked towards the kitchen.

Old Qi, who was sitting on the sofa, said, "Lanzhi, stay here. I want to talk to you."

Xie Lanzhi turned around and looked at Father Xie inquiringly.

Father Xie's expression froze for a moment, but soon recovered as before. He smiled and said to his son, "Why don't you go and keep him company?"

"Yes--"

Xie Lanzhi walked steadily to the side of the energetic Old Qi.

Old Qi pointed to the seat beside him: "Come, sit down--"

Xie Lanzhi nodded neither arrogantly nor humbly, and sat down readily.

Qin Shu felt that it was too quiet downstairs, as if there were only the Xie family and that old Qi.

She quietly poked her head out, and with a pair of flickering eyes, she looked down along the gap in the guardrail.

There really were only the Xie family and that kind-faced and friendly old Qi downstairs.

Where are the others?

Qin Shu's eyes flashed with doubt.

No!

There is another person--Yanhusuo.

He stood not far away, carrying a medicine box on his back, with a serious expression on his face.

Old Qi leaned on the sofa, asked about Xie Lanzhi's experience in Yunzhen City, and talked about his contributions on the border.

Sister Hua brought the tea.

Mrs. Xie personally placed the tea in front of Mr. Qi. She

also placed two cups of tea on the table for her husband and son.

Mr. Qi smiled and said, "Sister-in-law, stop working. You sit down too."

Mrs. Xie pursed her lips and smiled, tucked up her hair, and walked to sit next to Mr. Xie.

Mr. Qi, with his kind and wise eyes that were stained by the years, scanned the Xie family's living room.

He asked in confusion: "Why don't you see Lanzhi's wife? She went to bed so early?"

Xie Lanzhi, who was originally calm and composed, tensed up for a moment and said carefully,

"She is young and shy, and is staying upstairs."

Old Qi nodded: "She is only 19, a little young."

Then, he changed the subject: "I came here today just for her, to meet this little miracle doctor."

"..." Father Xie. "

..." Madam Xie

"..." Xie Lanzhi.

The three people had different expressions, full of vigilance and confusion.

The daughter-in-law (daughter-in-law) just got pregnant, this guy must not be here to steal her.

You know, Old Qi's grandson is almost 20 years old and has not married yet.

Old Qi's eyes were so sharp, seeing the tense expressions of the three members of the Xie family, he smiled and asked, "Is it inconvenient?"

"No." Xie's father waved his hand and asked tentatively, "Why did you come to see Ah Shu?"

Old Qi said, "My wife's cousin has been in poor health in the past two years and is about to die. I would like to ask your little miracle doctor to take a look..."

When they heard that they were going to see a doctor, the faces of the Xie family members relaxed visibly.

Old Qi joked, "Why, are you afraid that I will snatch her from you?"

Father Xie smiled and said, "How is that possible? I am not that kind of person."

Old Qi smiled amiably, but said, "You are wrong. If the child had not married Lan Zhi, I would have definitely registered her as my own. I will let

the child choose any of the children in the Qi family. I will give her any one she chooses, as long as she can marry into the Qi family."

Father Xie's breathing became heavier, and he was about to lose his temper.

He took a deep breath and laughed dryly, "Don't joke about that. Ah Shu is a shy child. I am afraid she will not dare to come out to see people after hearing this."

The smile on Old Qi's face faded, and he stared at Father Xie and sighed deeply.

"In the past, you would have pointed at my nose and scolded me, but we have become estranged over the years."

Upon hearing this, Father Xie hurriedly said, "Brother, you can't say that. It's not that we are estranged, but I am subdued by my wife and children."

He pointed at the seemingly gentle Mrs. Xie and the expressionless Xie Lanzhi.

"My temper and personality when I was young have long been worn away by these two mothers. Now I am both old and obedient."

The smile on Old Qi's face returned, and he glanced at Xie Lanzhi, who was calm and self-controlled, and had a sharp and reserved demeanor.

He said to Xie's father, "Your good days are still ahead."

Xie's father pretended to be stupid and said sincerely, "My biggest wish now is to enjoy a few years of family happiness and grandchildren."

"Kacha--"

An especially clear sound came from upstairs.

"Who's there!"

A guard raised his weapon and pointed it directly at the left corner of the upstairs.

This move immediately alarmed the other guards.

Almost in an instant, more than a dozen weapons were pointed at the second floor of Xie's house.

The gentleness in Xie Lan's eyes faded, and he stood up suddenly.

He strode forward, staring at the guards with unfriendly eyes, and was also met with more than a dozen gun muzzles.

"My wife is upstairs, you scared her!"

The guards didn't notice anything when they entered the house.

However, Xie Lanzhi spotted Qin Shu's figure at the first moment.

How could he turn a blind eye when these people pointed their guns at his wife and children?

Father and Mrs. Xie, who were protective of their son, immediately stood up and rushed forward to fight alongside their son.

The air in the living room seemed to freeze.

The oppressive and dangerous atmosphere quickly spread.

Xie Lanzhi released a terrifying aura that made people shudder, and his sinister black eyes glared at the guards.

Old Qi looked at the confrontation that took only a moment and scolded with a sullen face.

"What are you doing? Put your guns away!"

The guards put away their guns in a well-trained manner and stood back in their positions like cold robots.

Xie Lanzhi looked up at the corner, a white corner of his clothes trembling slightly, and a trace of worry appeared in his eyes.

He nodded to Mr. Qi who was sitting on the sofa: "Uncle Qi, Ah Shu is shy. I'll go upstairs to see her and let her come to see you."

Mr. Qi said with a worried look: "Okay, you go and see quickly, and don't scare the child."

Upstairs.

Qin Shu looked at the broken dead branch on the wooden floor, her face full of tears.

When she heard that Mr. Qi was looking for her, she was too emotional and grabbed a pot of plants at hand.

Who would have thought that a piece of dead wood would make such a loud noise and alarm the guards downstairs.

Qin Shu sat down on the wooden floor, staring at the culprit - the dead branch.

"Why are you sitting on the ground? Is it cold?"

When Xie Lanzhi went upstairs, he saw Qin Shu sitting on the ground with a depressed look on her face.

He walked over quickly, picked her up from the ground, and asked softly, "Were you not scared just now?"

Qin Shu leaned her head on his chest and said in a muffled voice, "No -"

She was not scared, but was a little worried that someone would mistakenly think she was eavesdropping.

Qin Shu thought at first that many people would be downstairs, but she didn't expect that only the Xie family and Mr. Qi were left.

As a result, she could hear everything they were talking downstairs. The feeling of being caught made Qin Shu feel very bad.

Xie Lanzhi made sure that Qin Shu was not scared, and carried her to the bedroom.

As soon as the two entered the house, Xie Lanzhi put the person on the ground, his deep eyebrows and eyes were solemn.

"Ah Shu, Mr. Qi wants you to treat someone."

Qin Shu nodded: "I heard it."

Xie Lanzhi whispered: "You may not know that the Xie family is not part of the same group as the Qi family.

In order to avoid unnecessary trouble, if you are not sure, I hope you don't take over this trouble.

Of course, if you are sure, I hope you can try it without harming your body."

"..." Qin Shu's thoughts were a little confused.

She asked tentatively: "Do you mean that the Xie family and the Qi family's group are enemies?"

Xie Lanzhi leaned close to Qin Shu's ear, speaking very quickly and clearly.

"That's not the case. We are not in the same faction, but we have a common goal. It's just that our respective groups are playing games."

"I asked you to think carefully because I'm afraid that this matter will become a reason for others to attack the Xie family. There won't be much movement in the family in the next few years."

At this time, Xie Lanzhi didn't dare to tell Qin Shu directly.

When he is over 30 years old, he wants to fight for the opportunity to live in the Yu Mansion.

The Yu Mansion is a place where only those with the highest power can live. It is also the top position that Xie Lanzhi wants to climb.

Qin Shu nodded, not quite understanding: "I understand. If I'm not sure, I won't take over the patient."

Then, she asked in a daze: "Xie Lanzhi, if I can save people, will you let me do it?"

There are many private matters in the hostile relationships between different factions that are unknown to outsiders.

The most taboo for medical practitioners is to kill people because of conflicts of interest.

Xie Lanzhi, who was holding Qin Shu's thin shoulders, had doubts in his eyes and nodded without hesitation.

"Of course, why don't I let you save her? Why do you have such an idea?"

Qin Shu's clean and clear eyes showed a faint smile.

The Qin family's medical skills have been passed down from generation to generation. They take curing diseases and saving lives as their own responsibility, inherit the beauty of medical ethics, and be kind and benevolent as doctors.

Qin Shu does not want Xie Lanzhi, who is deeply trapped in the center of power, to affect the Qin family's thousand-year family inheritance.

If Xie Lanzhi's answer just now would damage the benevolence of doctors, it would go against the Qin family's teachings.

She must abandon either Xie Lanzhi or the family teachings of her ancestors.

Xie Lanzhi didn't know that he had brushed Qin Shu's bottom line, and there was a 50% chance that he would be the one to be abandoned.

He whispered in Qin Shu's ear, and in a short time, he gave her an idea of ​​the complex and intertwined forces in Beijing City.

Qin Shu listened carefully and took Xie Lanzhi's words to heart.

When the two went downstairs, they found that there was an old man downstairs. When

Qin Shu saw this person, her beautiful eyes full of hope showed shock.

This is not the nobleman who supported her all the way in the domestic wealthy circle in her previous life and helped her gain a firm foothold.

——It was also the first patient that Yanhusuo introduced to her in her previous life.
