"You have no conscience! At least I stood up for you that day!" Xia Bao couldn't hold back anymore, her eyes reddening as she poured out her grievances.
He was really wronged.
This is outrageous!
After all, he called her "Grandma" several times! There's some affection between them!
When Xia Bao said that, Su Wantang did have a vague recollection of it.
"It's you?" she asked, her tone slightly incredulous.
Although on the day of the accident, Su Wantang was preoccupied with saving Li Jia's unborn child and didn't pay much attention to the fashionable but frail young man she had only glanced at, she still remembered him quite well.
The main problem is that Xia Bao covered it up too well this time.
He wore a dark blue acrylic sweater, over which he wore a short military green cotton coat with the collar standing up, covering most of Xia Bao's porcelain-white face. He also wore a People's Liberation Army cap, which covered half of his eyes.
It would be a miracle if anyone recognized it!
However, Su Wantang did not expect that this person would be the unlucky guy who lost his interview qualification because of his mother.
Seeing that Su Wantang remembered him, Xia Bao immediately perked up: "It's me!"
Unable to stand his smugness, Su Wantang deliberately called out, "Grandnephew, you're wishing your great-aunt a Happy New Year too early."
Xia Bao instantly transformed into a pufferfish, her breathing becoming rapid.
"You, you—"
Sensing something was wrong, Su Wantang pulled off Xia Bao's green hat and tugged at his collar, saying irritably, "Do you remember what I taught you last time?"
This person is really something; knowing he's sick, he still can't hold his temper.
Also, with her arms wrapped up so tightly, she couldn't press them down.
Xia Bao clearly remembered; he pulled his arm out of his military overcoat and began to massage it himself.
After a short while, the discomfort of difficulty breathing subsided.
That day, seeing that Su Wantang had failed to save Li Jia's child, Xia Bao figured that Su Wantang's medical skills were probably just so-so, so she watched the commotion for a while and then left.
But a couple of days ago, when he happened to have a relapse while buying medicine, he subconsciously used the technique Su Wantang had taught him. He didn't have much hope, after all, Su Wantang's medical skills were just so-so, and that day was probably just a coincidence.
Xia Bao was surprised that it actually worked.
Later, Xia Bao thought about it and realized that Su Wantang might not be simple. After all, even a divine doctor can make mistakes. So, he went to her again.
Upon arriving, they discovered the pharmacy was hiring. Unfortunately, his mother was worried sick about him going to the countryside, so without much thought, Xia Bao signed up.
His mother was born with a weak constitution, and he was a patient with many medicines since childhood. As the saying goes, "long illness makes one a doctor," and although Xia Bao seems carefree, he actually knows quite a bit about medicine.
When he was twelve, he was tinkering with brewing medicine and almost killed himself. But perhaps he was lucky, because he accidentally fell seriously ill and was able to get out of bed. He was so proud of himself.
Later, his mother strictly forbade him from reading those kinds of rubbish books, and even burned them. After that, it became something everyone hated, and Xia Bao had even less chance to read medical books.
Once she calmed down, Xia Bao sidled up to Su Wantang again, her tone a little smug: "How about that? Am I smart? You taught me once and I remembered it. You won't lose out by hiring me."
"How can you not lose money? You'll lose a lot! If someone makes you angry and you die, my shop will become a black market that kills people!" Su Wantang rolled her eyes.
With his frail health and his troublesome mother who threatens to report her shop as a shady business for no reason, no matter how capable this person is, you can't mess with him.
Besides, whether they have the ability or not is still uncertain!
Xia Bao tilted her head back slightly, widened her eyes, and rushed forward in one breath: "You called me a short-lived ghost?"
"Look, you're here again," Su Wantang said leisurely.
Suddenly, Xia Bao felt a tightness in her chest, unable to breathe properly, and it was incredibly uncomfortable.
I rubbed my fingers vigorously on the acupoints on my arm, and my molars ground together with a grinding sound.
After a long pause, he whispered, "I'm sworn brothers with the King of Hell, I'm incredibly tough, what you're worried about won't happen."
At this moment, Su Wantang realized that this was just a little kid who hadn't grown up yet.
Su Wantang threatened again, "Are you leaving or not? If you don't, I'll call the police and have you arrested!"
Xia Bao was also a flexible person, and immediately shouted: "Grandma, we are family, even if we are broken, we are still connected by tendons, please give your grand-nephew a chance for an interview."
"Grandma! Grandma! Please, just agree! If you still don't want me after the interview, I'll leave right now, without ever looking back!"
Xia Bao is quite confident.
He felt that once Su Wantang witnessed his abilities, she would definitely hire him without hesitation.
In this way, the job problem will be solved, and there will be no need to go to the countryside. If we maintain good relationships, we might even be able to get our illness cured.
However, he'll have to observe further before making a conclusion.
Xia Bao cannot yet determine Su Wantang's abilities.
Seeing his shameless behavior, Su Wantang couldn't keep up the act. She felt that keeping Xia Bao in the shop wasn't a good idea, and she also thought about his childish nature.
After thinking for a moment, he said, "Really? After the interview, no matter the outcome, you'll leave?"
"must."
As if afraid that Su Wantang wouldn't believe her, Xia Bao quickly added, "Whoever lies is a little dog."
Su Wantang hadn't taken it to heart and just planned to ask a couple of questions to get rid of it. She didn't expect that her 'cheap grand-nephew' was actually quite knowledgeable and knew a lot.
Her eyes gradually brightened, and she unconsciously straightened her languid posture.
Xia Bao noticed Su Wantang's changes and her eyebrows danced with excitement. If this guy were a peacock, he would definitely be spreading his tail feathers right now.
