Chapter 542: True Colors Revealed
Lu Shixu was speechless.
He only wanted to help her solve her housing problem so that he could get to know her better, and he never thought of this.
Fortunately, Yang Yong was smart and explained immediately.
"Doctor Qi, you misunderstood. I have to go back to Nanzhou later and I don't want to live with the Second Young Master."
After saying that, he deliberately pushed Zhang Liang and gave a wink to the clueless soldier.
Aliang understood and quickly found an excuse to shirk responsibility.
"Doctor Qi, I don't actually live here. It was our leader who sent me to bring the captain here. I've already brought him here safely, and I have to go back and report."
"Since you don't have a suitable place to live right now, why don't you stay at our leader's house? It just so happens that he's injured, and since you're a doctor, you can help take care of him."
Even though there was only one injured person, Qi Xu still felt something was wrong. A man and a woman alone in a room would easily lead to misunderstandings.
"Thank you for your kindness, I think it's better..."
Qi Xu was about to refuse again when A Liang and Yang Yong assisted him.
"Doctor Qi, our Second Young Master is a most upright soldier. He's injured like this, you don't think he'll bully you, do you?"
"That's right. Doctor Qi, you're so unkind. Our team leader helped you get the job, gave you so much money, and even sent a special plane to pick you up when you couldn't buy a ticket. And you weren't even willing to take care of him for a few days."
"Can you bear to see him living independently with injuries? What if he bumps into something and pulls the wound?"
"You're the doctor, he's the patient. What's the problem with helping each other?"
Since Aliang has said so, if Qi Xu continues to refuse, it would be really ungrateful and indecisive.
"Then I'll bother you for a few days, Mr. Lu. When your injury gets better, can you rent a house?"
"Thank you, Dr. Qi, for taking care of me."
Lu Shixu couldn't contain his joy. Seeing Aliang's cleverness, he waved his hand and sent a car out.
"Aliang, thank you for bringing me here. You can drive the car downstairs."
Aliang's mouth opened wider than a goose egg in surprise.
Oh my goodness, the leader is so generous. The car downstairs was just picked up yesterday and is worth several million.
"Captain, do you mean... to give it to me?"
Lu Shixu didn't say it so clearly. "If you like it, keep it on."
Meeting such a generous and magnanimous leader is truly a blessing I could have wished for in eight lifetimes.
A Liang wanted to kneel down on the spot and thank the God of Wealth.
"Thank you, Captain. Thank you."
For this dream car, he is willing to be the leader's slave for the rest of his life.
"Yang Yong, go downstairs and bring up Dr. Qi's luggage."
"Aliang, go to the supermarket and buy some daily necessities for women. Then go to a five-star hotel and book a table for dinner. Have them deliver it on time at 6 o'clock."
Lu Shixu arranged everything properly.
Qi Xu felt that she seemed to be here not to take care of the patients, but to enjoy herself.
"Mr. Lu, you are too polite."
"Doctor Qi, you're too polite. I'm a very casual person. Just treat this place as your home."
As soon as Aliang went downstairs, Lu Shixu secretly sent him a message.
"For the time being, please find a hotel to stay in. I'll reimburse all your living expenses."
"Also, when buying daily necessities for Dr. Qi, choose the best brands and remember to remove the labels. And when ordering food, ask for spicy food; she doesn't eat chopped green onions."
After Qi Xu moved in, Lu Shixu arranged everything properly and took great care of her, so she didn't have to worry about anything at all.
It is said that doctors take care of patients, but in fact it is patients who take care of doctors.
Even for three meals a day, Aliang had to find the best restaurant, order a variety of dishes, and then find a delivery man to pretend to deliver the food.
Two days later, Qi Xu reported to Hucheng Military Hospital with her appointment letter. Because she was recommended by the army, she completed the entry procedures quickly.
The Human Resources Department said that specific job placements require approval from higher-ups before they can be finalized. I should go home and wait for notification. I can officially start my job after the hospital approves it.
After the work problem was completely resolved, Qi Xu's mood became lively and bright.
Living under the same roof with Lu Shixu and spending a few days together, the two of them gradually became more familiar with each other and were no longer as polite as before.
When bored, they even joke and play around.
The way they addressed each other also changed from the cold Mr. Lu and Dr. Qi to calling each other by their first names.
Qi Xu, in particular, completely regarded Lu Shixu as a trustworthy and reliable friend. Her lively, cheerful, and somewhat hypocritical nature also began to show its true colors.
When she was angry, she would yell at Lu Shixu by his full name.
"Lu Shixu, you're not following the doctor's orders again and making trouble. I told you not to work, but you refused to listen. What if you get hurt?"
"Lu Shixu, you're so annoying. You know I'm a glutton, so why did you buy so many delicious foods? What if I get fat? Can you help me lose weight?"
"Lu Shixu, you're so annoying. I can't get up. I finally got some rest, and no one would wake me up at 6 o'clock every day. Wuwu... please, let me sleep a little longer."
"Lu Shixu, you're so unreasonable. How could there be a patient as overbearing and tyrannical as you? I'm your doctor, not your soldier, forcing me to train every day. ... Woohoo, I'm dying of exhaustion. My legs are about to break from running. Oh wow... Lu Shixu, my legs hurt."
"Lu Shixu. Not only did you ask me to run, but you actually made me practice fighting. I'm just a delicate girl, not someone who goes out to fight, and you pushed me to this point. It's too cruel!"
"Lu Shixu..."
After getting to know her, Lu Shixu discovered that under Qi Xu's cold and distant appearance, there was a warm heart hidden.
She is quiet with strangers, but she is actually a chatterbox. When she is in the mood, her non-stop mouth can chatter for hours.
She is a top student in her studies but an idiot in her personal life. She can't cook, make soup, or even the simplest dish of scrambled eggs with tomatoes.
She was diligent at work and in her medical field. But she was lazy about her personal health. She loved sleeping in, waking up at 8 a.m. every day, and she didn't like exercising. She'd burst into tears and complain after running less than 3,000 meters. She even sat on the track and acted like a spoiled child.
She is very smart, has a strong understanding and sees things clearly, but she is very slow when it comes to matters of love between men and women.
Just like a three-year-old child.
That day, they were walking on the street and saw a young couple with a slightly different age difference holding hands, so they asked her casually.
"Guess what the relationship is between the couple in front."
"It's a brother-sister relationship. Look how good the brother is to his sister."
Lu Shixu was speechless.
"What brother and sister are still holding hands at this age?"
She actually said something stupidly.
"Is it a father-daughter relationship?"
