Anyway, it's not too bad for her as her fiancé is well-behaved. If she really wants to say it, shouldn't she thank him?
"So why are you inviting me to dinner?"
Looking at the delicious food in front of her, she was not in a hurry to eat it. Instead, she held her chin with one hand and looked at Xu Shi with interest.
"To celebrate your success."
Xu Shi had no burden at all, I don’t care what you think… He just poured wine for her personally, still smiling and saying, “Why do I have to celebrate my beloved wife’s victory?”
"Go, who is your beloved wife, you pig-head."
Xie Qingyan cursed with a smile, but also raised his glass.
"If you have anything to say, just say it now. If you don't, you won't have another chance after this meal."
"...Okay, okay, I do have something to ask of you, or you should give me something in return, right?"
Xu Shi ignored her teasing and became serious after clinking glasses with the woman. "Actually, it's very simple."
"I have a patient in the hospital in District 16. You should know this?"
"I don't know... Is Mr. Xie interested in trying to cure her completely?"
(End of this chapter)
Chapter 147 If You Can’t Heal Me, I’ll Spank You
"Oh?"
Hearing Xu Shi say this, Xie Qingyan reacted quickly.
"Xu Shi, are you talking about the patient named Xia Ke'an who looks like a little girl but is actually almost 40 years old?"
She stared at Xu Shi with a strange expression and asked.
It can be seen that she has read the medical records of the white-haired loli and has a certain understanding of her.
Of course, she didn't know that this was one of the leading figures of "Refraction" back then.
"...Yes, that's her."
Xu Shi nodded, thinking that it always makes people feel weird when you say it like this...
However, entrusting "Prism" to treat Xia Ke'an is something that needs to be put on the agenda.
Even though I gave her a good beating before and told her not to do anything stupid and to take time to recover, she can't just ignore it forever. There's a difference between recuperation and complete recovery. It's better to get the SS-level character card as soon as possible.
The time was not right before, she had to recover to a certain level first, and her lack of skills was also a factor.
Now with purer "Rust Mist" ore and some technical references from the "Forgotten", the situation will be much better - he doesn't believe that Xie Qingyan has not improved these things and developed more efficient medical products.
Anyway, I have done similar things, so I think the same thing will happen to men and women.
"To be honest, I am actually quite interested in this little patient. After all, it is rare for one person to have so many symptoms."
Xie Qingyan said slowly, "But... why should I cure her?"
"Ok?"
Xu Shi pretended to be surprised and asked, "Do you need a reason to cure diseases and save lives?"
Xie Jiang, you have a very bad conscience!
You are a medical company! Do you need a reason to treat patients and save lives?
That’s not how capitalists work!
Mr. Xu strongly condemned this.
But the subtext is also very obvious. The bitch obviously wants benefits, but in Xu Shi's opinion, the tenth district is already a benefit. How can you not be satisfied?
Woman, your name is greed!
"I don't care. You have to have a good reason anyway."
Xie Qingyan was not going to give in just because he had finally taken the initiative in the confrontation. There was even a hint of spoiled childishness in his words.
That's nonsense. If the entire tenth district was in her hands, she would have agreed to this matter, but now she only has half of it, which is obviously not enough for her.
Although this didn't seem to be caused by Xu Shi, but... No, it just can't be done!
Seeing her like this, Xu Shi was amazed and thought to himself, you bitch, you might be having a hysterical fit... But since she said so, his attitude straightened a bit.
"Mr. Xie is a top medical student from a prestigious university after all. You're asking me the reason for this opportunity?"
Xu Shi spread his hands and said, "You also know that Miss Ke'an's condition is rare. If you cured her, then in the future, other people's evaluation of you will have this additional part, not just... You understand, don't you?"
It's not just about intrigue and scheming.
"Secondly, I don't think there are many samples of clinical practice for the newly developed products and technologies of Prism. If such difficult topics can be solved, then we can put them into use with complete confidence, right?"
"Also..."
"What else?"
Seeing Xu Shi stop talking abruptly, Xie Qingyan asked.
"Then I can only tell you after Miss Ke'an recovers."
Xu Shi smiled.
To be honest, the reasons he gave are in line with the ten words: It is better to listen to one word from you than to hear another.
The persuasiveness of these two reasons is not very strong, and Xie Qingyan certainly understands the logic.
But even if there is useful information, now is not the time to bring it out.
Xu Shi still understood very well that treating Xia Ke'an was not a matter to be underestimated, so the most correct way should be to let the horse run, so he had to give the horse grass first, but he also couldn't let the horse eat too much.
He did have other bargaining chips in his hand that were enough to tempt Xie Qingyan, but he certainly couldn't reveal them all at once.
If the tenth zone is the deposit, then the rest is the final payment. If he gives it all away, he will be the only one who will be passive. He also has to consider whether the other party will ask for more. Who told him that he can only rely on his good fiancée in this regard?
"..."
Xie Qingyan knew very well that Xu Shi was keeping her hanging, but the situation made her think more.
First of all, although Xu Shi is a bad guy, he is not the only one who can get something for nothing. If he wants to give you something useful, he can definitely give it to you, such as the tenth district he just got.
And if I remember correctly, he seemed to think highly of Xia Ke'an. After all, he even often visited her in person... Oh my god, I've never heard of such a thing before!
"...Okay, then I'm looking forward to your continued suspense later."
She thought about it and decided not to continue to be polite. She agreed immediately, "But I have to be frank. Regarding her illness... Prism cannot say that it is 100% certain."
"The treatment hasn't even started yet, how can you say such discouraging words?"
Xu Shi was not worried about this, "Then I'll have to ask Qingyan for help."
The bitch wasn't 100% sure, but this was not the only plan he had.
There is also Shen Qin who may have the "superpower transplantation" technology...but that matter is still unclear. Besides, even if that is the case, we will have to rely on the power of "Prism" at that time. It is always a good idea to strengthen the relationship in advance.
"Okay, you're right."
Xie Qingyan smiled, then turned to Ye Shanshan and instructed, "Notify the medical department to further form a high-tech treatment team based on the existing ones and customize a medical plan for Mr. Xu's patients."
"Yes."
Ye Shanshan quickly agreed.
Even with this little incident, the candlelight dinner was still a very pleasant one as both parties benefited.
But after dinner, Xie Qingyan refused Xu Shi's invitation to take her home and stayed alone in the restaurant, playing with the wine glass in her hand with a melancholy look on her face.
"Mr. Xie, what are you doing?"
Seeing this, Ye Shanshan was curious and asked, "Are you worried that Xu Shi will write a bad check? Then we..."
"Not at all."
Xie Qingyan waved his hand with a bit of drunkenness, "Shanshan, do you know what I was thinking when I asked him for a reason just now?"
"……do not know."
Little Curly is not stupid, so he doesn't dare to guess his superiors' intentions at this time.
"I actually really want Xu Shi to say something nice, at least compliment me on my youth, potential and charm."
Xie Qingyan was a little disappointed. "Although it would be nice if he could give something else... but it's always such a formal exchange of interests. Sometimes I find it boring."
What she said was true. In fact, those prerequisites were enough for her to agree to Xu Shi's request. Xu Shi was not the only one who wanted to strengthen the relationship.
"Oh."
Ye Shanshan was stunned and thought to herself that this is not your style... Do you still care whether others say good things to you?
But then she thought that the person's surname was Xu, and she seemed to understand. Anyway, she could see that her chairman's attitude towards Xu Shi was moving more and more towards "not just a simple cooperative relationship."
If this continues, I'm afraid the marriage will really be fulfilled, right? And it's not just a face-saving marriage...hiss.
She already had a picture in her mind of the two of them holding hands with respect, and then she, the poor and helpless secretary, would be bullied by Xu Shi, and Xie Qingyan might not even care after the incident...
No, that's too scary!
It's a pity that she couldn't refuse this kind of thing unless she ran away, so she could only quickly get rid of this terrible scene.
Besides, being bullied by Xu Shi didn't seem like a big deal? She had already experienced the worst, and her jaw still ached when she thought about it... With Director Xie around, the Xus would be more restrained, right?
"The point is I'm a little mad."
The curly-haired girl's wild thoughts were quickly interrupted by Xie Qingyan's words, "Xu Shi, my nominal fiancé, please ask me to take the trouble to save another woman?"
She doesn't treat Xia Ke'an as a child. Whose child is in his early forties?
But then again, if she was just an ordinary aunt in her early forties, she wouldn't seem to think there was anything wrong with it. But that girl looked like a little loli, which made Xie Qingyan very unhappy.
"This... should be a normal transaction, right? Isn't this often the case between you and Xu Shi, Mr. Xie..."
What else could Ye Shanshan say, "Are you jealous of him now?" This strange tone of voice was enough to explain a lot of things.
Oh my god, this world is not normal...
"Oh, I hope so."
