Chapter 206 - 206 Wrongly Paid to a Blind Man
206 Wrongly Paid to a Blind Man
Sikou Qin was confident that she was reborn and could foresee things before they happened, so she did not take Zhao Chuchu seriously.
The solution she thought of was also straightforward. That was to approach Xie Heng by pretending to be miserable.
Zhao Chuchu was a doctor.
Then she would pretend to get sick and stay at the Xie clan’s house. When Xie Heng studied, she would then be able to spend time with Xie Heng.
If Xie Heng could fall in love with her in his previous life, he would definitely do the same in this life.
Zhao Chuchu had no qualifications to compete with her.
Sikou Qin did whatever she thought of.
She didn’t even consider the consequences. Just like Zhao Chuchu said, she died of stupidity in her previous life, and she would do the same in this life.
Two days later, the pale Sikou Qin was helped to Zhao Chuchu by a servant girl.
Zhao Chuchu was at a loss for words.
“Ms. Sikou is sick. I heard that you are the best doctor in Yuanjiang County, so quickly have a look at Ms. Sikou. You will get a lot of money if you can cure her.” That servant girl was the same as Sikou Qin. She did not take Zhao Chuchu seriously and spoke condescendingly.
Sikou Qin pretended to stop the servant girl. “Don’t be rude to the doctor.”
After a pause, Sikou Qin looked at Zhao Chuchu. “My servant has been spoiled by me and usually speaks out of turn. Please forgive her, doctor.”
“No wonder then. It turns out that a dog will always count on its master’s backing.” Zhao Chuchu smiled. “I am not a well-thought-out person and always say what comes to mind, so please don’t mind.”
Sikou Qin suddenly felt a breath blocked in her throat and was almost angered to laugh.
That servant girl was furious and was about to retort, but she was pulled back by Sikou Qin. “I’ll never take you out if you’re rude like that again!”
“Yes, Ms. Sikou.” The servant girl hung her head but glared viciously at Zhao Chuchu.
Seeing this, Zhao Chuchu said, “If I hadn’t heard her call you Ms., I would have thought she was the superior. Trouble comes from the mouth. You can’t let your subordinates run amok because you are too kind-hearted. A tricky servant can easily ruin the master.”
“You… you are just a little poor girl from the village! Who are you to say anything in front of me?” The servant girl was furious.
Sikou Qin darkened her face and stared at the servant girl coldly.
That servant girl suddenly did not dare to breathe, and her arrogance was instantly suppressed.
“Kneel down!” Sikou Qin shouted.
That servant girl immediately got down on her knees.
“Bow to the doctor and apologize.”
The servant girl was aggrieved, but seeing Sikou Qin’s face was ugly, she didn’t dare to resist and said to Zhao Chuchu reluctantly, “Sorry, doctor.”
Zhao Chuchu didn’t even look at her. She ignored the servant girl and said directly to Sikou Qin, “I don’t know what’s wrong with you, so can you reach out and let me take your pulse?”
No one cared about Sikou Qin’s servant girl.
She knelt there, not daring to get up but also feeling suffering to kneel.
And Sikou Qin didn’t expect Zhao Chuchu to be so excessive, not giving in at all.
While reaching out, she said, “Doctor, my servant has apologized to you.”
“Yes, I saw that.”
“Then let her get up, so she won’t have to kneel here and be an eyesore.”
“Whatever you like.”
“Doctor, she is apologizing to you, but not me.”
Sikou Qin reminded Zhao Chuchu.
Zhao Chuchu said carelessly, “Do I have to accept her apology? Isn’t an apology based on sincerity? Do you want to force me to accept it?”
“I don’t mean that. But isn’t it a basic courtesy to accept someone’s apology?”
“Then if I come to you sarcastic and abusive and then say sorry, do you think it makes sense? Not every sorry sentence can be exchanged for okay. It’s her business to apologize, but I have the right to forgive or not.”
Sikou Qin’s face became ugly in anger when she heard this.
Zhao Chuchu took in the change in Sikou Qin’s mood.
She thought, “It seems you can hardly retain your composure, so how can you make a counterattack after your rebirth?”
She only felt amused.
“Lady, medicine is more or less poisonous, so it is better not to take medicine indiscriminately in the future.” Zhao Chuchu let go of Sikou Qin’s wrist and said faintly, “Also, lady, you are already more than a month pregnant. You are lucky enough not to harm the baby this time, but it is not sure next time.”
Sikou Qin couldn’t believe what she heard.
“What did you say?”
“Don’t you know you’re pregnant, lady?”
Zhao Chuchu looked at her pitifully.
“Should I report it to the governing bureau?”
“Don’t mess around. This is my own business!” Sikou Qin said excitedly.
How could she be pregnant?
In her previous life at this time, she had been pregnant for more than six months, so how could she be pregnant just now?
What went wrong?
At the same time, Sikou Qin saw Xie Heng, who happened to return.
In this life, Xie Heng missed last year’s Imperial Examination, but he was even more radiant than in his previous life when he had already won the first prize. He didn’t have the kind of bitterness and hatred he held back then but was clearly a spirited youth.
Sikou Qin looked at Xie Heng lovingly as if she had not seen him for a lifelong time.
All kinds of grievances surged up. She just wanted to jump into Xie Heng’s arms and hug him, telling him all her love.
She wanted to let Xie Heng know that she was the one he loved in this life.
However, Sikou Qin’s burning affection was wrongly paid to a blind man.
Xie Heng walked straight over.
His gaze was always on Zhao Chuchu’s face, not resting on Sikou Qin for even a second. No, he not even looked at Sikou Qin as if Sikou Qin did not exist.
Sikou Qin nervously pinched her handkerchief and stood in place, full of hope waiting for Xie Heng to walk up to her and fall in love with her at first sight.
But just as Xie Heng walked up to her and her hand slightly handed out a little, Xie Heng had already crossed over and handed the food box he was carrying to Zhao Chuchu. His tone was gentle. “This is for you. Eat it while it’s hot.”
Zhao Chuchu took it and opened it. The tantalizing aroma came to her nose, and she instantly felt hungry.
“Thank you.” Zhao Chuchu looked at him with a smile. “I have a patient here, so you take it back for me first. I will eat it later.”
“Okay. Don’t be too tired.”
Xie Heng stroked Zhao Chuchu’s head, and that gentle, doting look was something Sikou Qin had never seen before.
Sikou Qin’s nails were pinching her palm, but she did not even aware of the pain. She stared at the two in front of her, only to feel that the scene was incomparably harsh.
She thought, “Xie Heng completely ignored me and gave all the kindness to that bitch Zhao Chuchu?”
“Doctor, is this your brother?” Seeing that Xie Heng was about to leave, Sikou Qin blurted out.
Xie Heng paused in his steps.
Sikou Qin was slightly relieved. “Your brother is an excellent man.”
“I am Chuchu’s husband.” Xie Heng did not turn around, and his tone was calm.
Sikou Qin’s breath choked, and her grievance came tumbling out. “Are you really not brother and sister?”
“Lady, you’re so funny. We don’t look alike, and how can a brother and sister be so intimate?” Zhao Chuchu smiled. “It’s better to take less medicine in the future. It’s not good for both you and your baby. Look at you. You can’t even see clearly.”
Sikou Qin was annoyed. “I just saw this gentleman was excellent. How could I have imagined that he would have such a wife like you?”
“Chuchu, just beat those who come to pick a fight out. You don’t have to explain so much.” Xie Heng turned around and looked at Sikou Qin with fierce eyes. “Mouths are for eating, not picking on other people’s conjugal relationships.”
