Chapter 804: Taiyi Traditional Chinese Medicine Clinic
Qin Haodong said, “Are you asking for too much?”
Xi Youmi continued: “In fact, I have only one requirement for my boyfriend, that is, he must be able to make me feel secure.
But none of them could do this. Some were weaker than me. Some were after my beauty or my money. No one could make me feel safe.
If I’m with them, I’ll always be afraid that they’ll leave me when I’m old or go bankrupt.”
Qin Haodong asked, “Is it because you’re too suspicious? If it goes on like this, you won’t be able to get married.”
“There was a time when I wondered if my standards of choosing a spouse were wrong and if there was no man I would fall in love with.”
Speaking of this, she suddenly raised her head, looked directly at Qin Haodong and said, “But since I met you that day, I realized that my requirements were not high. It’s just that I haven’t met my Mr. Right yet.
The moment I saw you, I felt safe and relaxed. This was something I had never experienced before, so I stayed up late that night to make a set of clothes for you. I knew that I’ve fallen in love with you.”
Qin Haodong said, “But as you can see, I already have many girlfriends. This is very unfair to you.”
“That’s what I thought at the time, so I left the clothes with you and went home. The one thing I’ve been doing these days is trying to forget you.
But it’s too difficult. I’ve worked hard for so many days, but your shadow is getting clearer and clearer in my mind. Maybe God doesn’t want me to forget you, so we can meet here again.”
Qin Haodong didn’t say anything. He didn’t know what to say at this special moment.
A look of ecstasy came over her face. “At the moment when the robbers forced me, I knew how important you were for me. I could sacrifice everything or even die for you.
You subdued those robbers and I survived. Then I suddenly realized that I didn’t care about anything else, including your girlfriends as long as I can be with you.
You are a promising young man, and they can accept each other. Why can’t I?”
Qin Haodong said, “Don’t be too impulsive. Think about it carefully.”
“I don’t need to think about it anymore. You’re the man I’ve been looking for in my life. The world is meaningless for me if I can’t be with you.”
Speaking of this, she suddenly threw back the covers. “Haodong, please be with me. I want to be your woman.”
She was mature, sexy, beautiful, and charming. She almost had all the advantages of women. No man could resist her temptation.
Qin Haodong had always been impressed by her beauty and charm, but somehow he was always a little uneasy, which he had never felt before when talking with other girls.
Because of this uneasiness, he finally suppressed his impulse. He tucked her in and covered her perfect body.
“I think it’s too hasty. Think about it again.”
Disappointment flashed across her eyes, and then she said, “Why are you pushing me away? In fact, I have been alone for all these years. I have never liked anyone else, and I’ve never had sex before.
If you don’t believe me, you can give it a try. I’m still a virgin.”
“I didn’t mean that,” Qin Haodong said, “I don’t care whether you’re a virgin. I just want you to think it over.”
“But I’ve already thought it through. No matter how many girlfriends you have, I don’t care. I’ll be content if you’re good to me.”
“Xi Youmi, calm down,” Qin Haodong said, “in fact, it’s the second time we’ve seen each other. Don’t be too impulsive. Let’s think it over, OK?”
“Do you think I’m not beautiful enough?”
“No, you are very beautiful and I’m deeply impressed by your appearance.”
“Then why did you do this to me?”
Xi Youmi said pitifully.
“I don’t mean anything else. I just think it’s too hasty. I’m afraid you’ll regret it.”
“All right,” Xi Youmi said. “But I want to sleep in your arms tonight.”
“Well...”
Qin Haodong hesitated. He couldn’t do anything with such a beautiful woman in his arms. It was not pleasure but torture.
“What, you don’t want to? I don’t think you like me...”
The rims of her eyes turned red again.
“No, no, I promise you, okay?”
“That’s great.” A happy smile flashed across her face, and then she said, “Don’t call me sister. That will remind me that I’m older than you, and don’t call me by my name either. That sounds distant.”
Qin Haodong asked, “Then what should I call you?”
Xi Youmi said, “When I was a child, my parents called me Xiao Mi. You can also call me Xiao Mi.”
Qin Haodong smiled, “That’s a good name, but it seems to be a mobile phone brand.”
Xi Youmi placed her cheeks on his chest and murmured, “If only I were a cell phone. I would always be by your side and would never be abandoned by you.”
Hearing such touching whispers of love, Qin Haodong did know what to say. In fact, he was also attracted to this beautiful, sexy, smart, and charming woman. But for some reason, he always felt a little uneasy.
After a day of fatigue, the two of them soon fell asleep.
The next day, the clouds disappeared and the sun rose. It was a sunny day. The golden sunlight shone into the room through the large French windows.
Qin Haodong opened his eyes and saw that Xi Youmi was wearing a white nightdress and an apron with a mouse pattern printed on it. She was busy in the kitchen, looking like a wife who was cooking breakfast for her husband.
“Good morning, Haodong. Sorry for last night!”
Seeing Qin Haodong walking out of the room, Xi Youmi flushed and spoke.
Qin Haodong smiled, “It’s nothing.”
Xi Youmi said, “Hurry up and wash up. Have a taste of the breakfast I made for you.”
Qin Haodong finished washing and sat down at the dining table. There was not much food, but everything looked delicate. She made steak, fried eggs, milk, and bread, which was a typical western breakfast.
Qin Haodong cut a piece of steak, put it in his mouth, and chewed it slowly.
Xi Youmi asked nervously, “How is it? Is the steak delicious?”
“Yes. It’s even better than that made by the hotel’s chef. I didn’t expect you to be such a brilliant cook.”
Qin Haodong kept nodding. This was not just a compliment. Xi Youmi was really good at cooking.
Being praised by her beloved, she showed a contented smile,” I grew up alone, so naturally I have to learn how to cook, or I can’t have a healthy appetite.”
After breakfast, Xi Youmi put the dishes into the dish-washing machine and said, “I’m going to work. Any plans for today? By the way, I haven’t asked you what do you want to do in M Country?”
“I’ll explore the TCM market here and we want to open a branch of Tang Sect Pharmaceutical in M Country.”
Qin Haodong told her about the task that Lin Momo gave him, but he didn’t mention anything about the Alien Demons and Angel Pharmaceutical.
“Oh!” Xi Youmi said, “I have stayed in M Country for a long time. Except for Chinatown, the people here don’t approve of traditional Chinese medicine.
The government officials here are used to Western medicine, so they are especially resistant to TCM. I’m afraid it will be very difficult for you to build a traditional Chinese medicine factory here.”
Qin Haodong said, “I knew it, but I have to give it a try.”
Xi Youmi took his arm and said intimately, “No matter what, I will support you. This fashion week will only last for seven days, I had planned to return after it’s finished, but if you’ll deal with business in M country, I’ll stay here with you.”
Qin Haodong said, “That’s not a good idea. I don’t know how long I have to stay here. Your domestic business might be affected.”
“It doesn’t matter. Business is nothing more than making money, but you’re much more important than money,” Xi Youmi said with a smile, “if you can stay in M Country for the rest of your life, I’ll be here with you.”
Qin Haodong pinched her delicate nose. “Okay, go to work quickly, or you’ll be late. I’ll go out and have a look to see if there’s an opportunity.”
“Okay, let’s go together.”
Xi Youmi locked the door and went out with Qin Haodong. She separated with Qin Haodong unwillingly when they were downstairs.
Looking at Xi Youmi, who was sexy and charming, getting in the car, Qin Haodong frowned slightly. She was a pure girl and was sincere to him, but why couldn’t he see through her?
Xi Youmi got in the car sent by her assistant. She rolled down the window and waved to Qin Haodong, and then left.
Qin Haodong shook his head. Maybe he was thinking too much.
He temporarily put this thought aside and began to consider what to do next.
The purpose of this trip to M Country was to find the headquarters of Angel Pharmaceutical and save Sun Fengqing and his grandson. But he didn’t know where to start now.
Xi Youmi had mentioned that Chinatown was more friendly to TCM, so he decided to go there first.
He took a taxi and headed for Chinatown.
After getting out of the car, he was shocked by the greatness of the Huaxia people. They could survive and reproduce in any corner of the earth and live a good life.
There were yellow-skinned, black-eyed people from Huaxia everywhere, which made him feel as if he had already returned to Huaxia.
He walked along the street and enjoyed the bustling scene around him.
But suddenly he saw a group of people gathering in front of a shop. There was an antique plaque hanging on the shop, and “Taiyi Traditional Chinese Medicine Clinic” was written on it in square Huaxia characters.
This was the first clinic of traditional Chinese medicine he saw in M Country. But it seemed that something had happened. Qin Haodong strode over out of concern for his counterparts.
In the clinic, a young man in his thirties was yelling at a young girl in her twenties. Both of them were Huaxia people, and they were also arguing in Huaxia Language.
The young man shouted angrily, “You quack! I just had a slight cough and wanted to get some medicine. But my cough was not cured. Instead, I had a stomachache for the whole night, and it almost killed me.”
The people around him also shouted, “You quack! You almost killed him...”
“I used to come here to treat my disease. The doctor’s medical skills here are amazing. I have been cured of my old stomach disease for many years in a week. How could this happen?”
“Isn’t there an old doctor in the Taiyi Traditional Chinese Medicine Clinic? Old doctors are more reliable, but this little girl can’t make it...”
The little girl of the traditional Chinese medicine clinic looked delicate and pretty, with a pair of floral braids tied behind her head. She looked very pure.
Hearing the discussions around and looking at the young man in front of her, she said nervously, “I’m sorry. I didn’t know why you had a stomachache. I’m really sorry. It’s all my fault. Why don’t I pay you some money...”
