Chapter 754 - 754 Hostility
754 Hostility
Wei Wei’s face turned pale. She bit her lower lip and forced a smile. She reached out to hold Gu Qing’s arm and asked as if nothing had happened, “Brother Qing, who is this? Aren’t you going to introduce her?”
Hearing the hostility in her tone, Qin Xi was indifferent, but Xia Tangxin chuckled.
Wei Wei’s face stiffened and she felt embarrassed.
Seeing that she was ill at ease, Xia Tangxin quickly restrained her smile and explained, “I’m sorry for being rude. Actually, you don’t have to be so hostile to Xi. She’s already married and her marriage is extremely stable. They definitely don’t have anything to do with each other. As for how the two of them met, it’s probably related to their profession. Xi is also a doctor.”
When Wei Wei heard that Qin Xi was already married, she immediately felt that she was too petty. Her face was red as she looked at Qin Xi nervously. “Hello, I’m Wei Wei.”
She wanted to say that she was Gu Qing’s fiancee, but when she opened her mouth, she felt that it was unnecessary to say that.
Qin Xi smiled. “I’m Qin Xi. You must be Gu Qing’s fiancée. I heard that you’re getting married in May. Congratulations in advance.”
Gu Qin asked, “Where is he? Why isn’t he here?”
Qin Xi knew that the person he was asking about was Han Shi. She smiled and said, “He’s been quite busy recently and can’t get away. Why are you in the mood to come here today?”
“I worked too much, so I came out to relax,” Gu Qing said.
In fact, it was Gu Qing’s father who asked him to invite Wei Wei out. After all, they were getting married, so it was time for them to get to know each other more. If he stayed in the hospital all day, he would go crazy.
Gu Qing had no choice but to do as his father said. He didn’t know how to get along with Wei Wei, so he asked some friends to come along.
“Since everyone knows each other, let’s play together!” Xia Tangxin said.
“I have no problem with that!”
The group of people began to pick horses in the ranch. Everyone was having fun. Deng Xinhe rode a horse to Qin Xi’s side. He said with a smile, “I heard that your husband’s winery has been built. It’ll start production soon, right?”
Qin Xi rolled her eyes and said angrily, “If you have something to say, cut to the chase!”
“I want to invest in it. What do you think?”
Deng Xinhe knew that Qin Xi had been spending a lot of money in the past year to build the winery, the pharmaceutical company, and the shopping center. Her source of money was mainly from the revenue of Sweet Dew, which was far from enough to sustain such a huge project. Therefore, he was wondering if he could get involved.
Qin Xi said, “Not really a good idea!”
Deng Xinhe waved his hand in disbelief. “Stop fooling around. Apart from the Sweet Dew, where else can you get money?”
He seemed to have thought of something and quickly added, “Oh right, don’t tell me that your money comes from the clinic. I doubt you can make a scent from that place.”
Qin Xi thought about her source of income. Indeed, without the Yin family’s money, not to mention a winery, she wouldn’t even be able to open the Sunshine Pharmaceuticals.
Although Sweet Dew fruits and vegetables brought her a lot of profits, it was only a little more than a hundred thousand yuan a month. Compared to the cost of building a shopping center, it was obviously a drop in the bucket. It was no wonder that Deng Xinhe said that.
“Don’t even think about investing in it. If you want to be a partner, I can reluctantly agree to it.”
Deng Xinhe frowned. “Do you really have that much money?”
Qin Xi narrowed her eyes and glanced at him. “Don’t tell me you’re here just for this!”
Deng Xinhe touched his nose awkwardly and his expression immediately became solemn. “It seems like I can’t hide anything from you. Then I’ll be straightforward. I have something to ask of you!”
