Chapter 42: Singing without Green Tea
Qi Xu showed the ring in his hand again, his face full of pride.
"Of course. If you don't believe me, ask my senior. My husband has been sending me flowers and gifts every day these days, and I'm so overwhelmed with them."
Xue Jing originally thought that it was a gift from Qi Xu's boyfriend, but she never expected it to be her husband.
"Yes! My schoolmate's husband is quite a romantic man. Even when she's away on her studies, he sends her flowers every day. We doctors who are also on the study tour are so envious."
Qi Ran was so competitive that she would never believe that Qi Xu would marry a good husband. Even if she had a little money, could it compare to Song Yunzhou's family background?
"Tsk! Since you're getting married, why don't you have a wedding? Why don't you bring your husband home and show him to Dad?"
"Could it be that she married an old man, or a poor boy, who is not presentable?"
Qi Xu drank by herself, calm and composed. "My husband, I like it myself. Why should I bring it back to show you?"
"What if you envy my husband's handsomeness and want to seduce him?"
"You?" Qi Ern's teeth were almost broken. "I have a fiancé, why would I seduce your poor husband?"
Qi Xu smiled and pointed at Song Yunzhou.
"Didn't you seduce the girl I once loved? But thank you for stealing my love away. It gave me a better opportunity. I wish you a happy marriage!"
Song Yunzhou's expression turned even uglier. He also didn't believe that Qi Xu's husband was any better than him.
"Since you're already married, Xiao Xu, please bring your husband to my and Ranran's engagement party on the 12th of next month. Let me see the legendary tall, rich, and handsome man."
Originally, Qi Xu had no intention of exposing Lin Youqian, but after being provoked by this couple, he simply agreed without thinking.
"Okay! I hope Mr. Song won't feel ashamed when the time comes!"
Qi Ran also made some harsh remarks.
"Okay. Sister, you must bring your brother-in-law with you when the time comes. I'd like everyone here to testify and see who the real clown is!"
This birthday party, with two sisters who had conflicting personalities, was destined to be unhappy. Qi Xu was the first to leave.
"Sorry, Senior. I have something else to do, so I'll leave first. I'll treat you to dinner another day. Happy birthday!"
"Sorry, junior. Let's meet again some other time. Please be careful.
Xue Jing also felt very sorry. She didn't know Qi Xu and Song Yunzhou had such a relationship. Otherwise, she wouldn't have called her over and embarrassed her.
After Qi Xu left, Song Yunzhou still didn't give up and continued to ask, "Xue Jing, have you met Xiao Xu's husband?"
Xue Jing didn't want to talk about this topic.
"No. I've only known her for a few days. But she's a good person, so I'm sure her husband won't be bad either. Let's eat. Today is my birthday party, so let's not talk about irrelevant things."
Xue Jing was a doctor at a military hospital in Yuncheng. Although she and Qi Xu were not from the same city, they were both affiliated with the same system. She came from a wealthy family and did not support the wealthy second-generation like Song Yunzhou or the small internet celebrities like Qi Ran. Instead, she was somewhat displeased.
But Qi Ran seemed not to understand what he was saying and continued to serve tea smugly.
"Sister Jing, you just met her. Don't be fooled by her fake innocent appearance. You don't know how shameless she is at home. She even seduced..."
"Shut up!" Xue Jing slammed her chopsticks to interrupt her.
"You don't need to judge what kind of character Qi Xuemei has. Do I know you well? Can someone like you who speaks ill of others behind their backs be considered virtuous?"
Qi Ran was speechless after being scolded. He looked at Song Yunzhou pitifully, hoping that he would vent his anger for him.
"Yun Zhou. I didn't say anything. Why is Sister Xue Jing angry?"
Song Yunzhou did not follow her wishes and stand up for her. Instead, he smiled apologetically at Xue Jing.
"Sorry, Jingjing. Ranran is still young and a little naive. I'm sorry to have embarrassed you."
"Hmph!" Xue Jing sneered. "Since you're young, eat well, talk less, and use your brain. Don't take advantage of your little fame and think you're a big star."
Song Yunzhou raised his glass and nudged Qi Ran. "Jingjing is right. We've ruined everyone's fun today. Ranran and I apologize to everyone."
Qi Ran felt that he was being looked down upon and sat there stiffly, refusing to get up.
Song Yunzhou leaned in close to her ear with a sullen face. "Be sensible. My dad has to bow down before his dad. If you ruin the relationship between our two families, don't blame me for being ruthless."
Qi Ran finally stood up, terrified, and with a smile on his face, apologized to Xue Jing. "I'm sorry, Sister Jing. I was so irritated by that little... brat Qi Xu that I lost my temper. I hope you'll forgive me!"
Qi Ran wanted to call her a little bitch, but when he met Xue Jing's contemptuous look, he bit it back.
But no matter how low she lowered her cup, Xue Jing didn't give her any face.
"Everyone, eat and drink well. I'm not very good at seeing things today, and the place we booked is a bit full of flies. I'm sorry for the poor hospitality. I've made you all laugh."
Everyone burst into laughter, "Hahaha, come on, cheers, cheers!"
The Xue family is the wealthiest in Yuncheng, one of the four most powerful families. Xue Jing is known among the second-generation rich for her straightforwardness, her sharp tongue never swerving. For a small-time internet celebrity like Qi Ran to try to act impressive and impressive in front of the eldest daughter of the Xue family is simply courting humiliation.
Song Yunzhou's face was bruised with shame, but he dared not say anything and could only endure it silently. In private, he glared at Qi Ran several times.
If it weren't for this stupid woman, how could he be so embarrassed in the eyes of these young masters today.
Song Yunzhou and Qi Ran were too embarrassed to participate in the following singing activities because Xue Jing had said so clearly.
"We have a rule in Yuncheng: you can't order green tea while singing karaoke. Yunzhou, do you want to come with us?"
"Oh, Ranran and I have something to do, so we can't leave. Have fun!"
If Song Yunzhou couldn't hear such obvious sarcasm, he would be a fool.
Immediately afterwards, Xue Jing sent a message to Qi Xu. "Qiqi, I've avenged you. Next time I visit you in Lake City, remember to treat me to a meal. Bring your handsome, rich husband along so I can see him!"
Qi Xu's smile was brighter than a rose. "Thank you, Senior Sister. Next time you come to Lake City, I'll have my husband cook for you. His cooking is super delicious, even better than that of a five-star chef!"
Xue Jing was indeed very curious about what kind of husband such a cute little girl would marry.
And Qi Xu also missed the food cooked by Lin Youqian.
God knows that during the time she studied in Yuncheng, every day was boring, she couldn't enjoy her food and couldn't sleep well. For the sake of a bouquet of roses every day, just give him a chance!
On the day he learned Qi Xu was returning, Lin Youqian was already waiting at the hospital entrance. He stood like a tall statue in the middle of the crowd, staring intently at the military hospital bus, afraid to miss the little figure he longed for.
It was not until Qi Xu got out of the car dragging his suitcase that his world suddenly lit up. He couldn't wait to open his arms and run towards the little sun.
"Qiqi!"
