Chapter 27: The Bride's Family Was Defeated
Editor: Atlas Studios
After a short meal, the two of them parted ways again. As soon as Xiao Li returned to the emergency department, she was pulled aside by Dai Zhihan.
"Little Lili, I was besieged just now. You were the main character of the incident, but I was the one who suffered…"
Xiao Li smiled. "So what did you say?"
Dai Zhihan smiled and said, "I spoke the truth! However, many of them believe that you're in a relationship, but they don't believe that you're already married.
But that's to be expected. After all, there are few girls as young as you who get married these days…
Sigh… Speaking of which, why didn't I see you wearing a wedding ring?"
Xiao Li smiled and said, "The first time I returned to the dormitory, I wore it. You just didn't pay attention.
I did not wear it after returning to school. I was busy every day and it was inconvenient for me to wear it.
Now that I'm working, I'm not allowed to wear it, so I haven't worn it since."
Dai Zhihan shook her head. "It's understandable that you can't wear it at work. You really have to wear it when you go back to school. What's so inconvenient about it?
How can your uncle feel comfortable if you don't wear it?"
Xiao Li lowered her head. She really didn't think too much about it. Thinking about it carefully, Qin Xiao seemed to have been wearing a ring all along. He didn't wear it two days ago. It seemed to be after he came to the hospital…
I really can't wear it when I come to the hospital to work…
Thinking of this, Xiao Li planned to wear the ring when she was on holiday in the future.
Just as she was about to take a rest and prepare to leave, Xiao Li received news that Dr. Yang would be on the night shift tomorrow. She had to do the night shift with her and rest during the day tomorrow.
When they got off work, Xiao Li specially asked Qin Xiao, "Uncle, are you on duty tomorrow? Do you have class?"
Qin Xiao shook his head. "No class or shift. Why?"
Xiao Li said, "I'll be on the night shift tomorrow and won't be working during the day. Dai Zhihan will be on the night shift like me. Xiao Wenjing and Feng Qing aren't in the emergency department. They can rest at noon in other departments. I want to ask them to come to our house tomorrow…"
Qin Xiao nodded. "Sure, but do you want to do it at home? Or outside?"
Xiao Li smiled and said, "They can come to our house. They're all my best friends from a few years ago. If we meet outside, it will make them feel estranged from us"
Just having a get-together at home."
Qin Xiao nodded. "Alright, I'll make the arrangement…"
After agreeing with Qin Xiao, Xiao Li took out her phone and sent a message to the group. Because she considered that Xiao Wenjing and the others were on night duty, she decided to arrange for lunch at home.
When Feng Qing and the others heard that there was a lunch party, they were extremely excited!
The next day, Dai Zhihan went to the entrance of the hospital to wait for Xiao Wenjing and Feng Qing. After the three of them met at the entrance of the hospital, they went to Xiao Li's house together.
They did not come empty-handed. They brought some fruits, a bouquet of flowers, and a bottle of wine.
When Xiao Li opened the door and saw that they had brought something, she said to them, "When did you become so particular? You even brought gifts for me."
Feng Qing smiled fiercely. "Do you think we're giving gifts to you?
Pfft… don't flatter yourself. I'm giving it to your uncle."
Xiao Wenjing was much gentler. "This is our first time visiting. Although we have a good relationship with you, we can't come empty-handed!
We didn't specially buy expensive gifts. The gifts are all ordinary things. It's not the gift that counts, but the thoughts behind it."
Dai Zhihan just stuffed the flowers into Xiao Li's arms without saying anything…
Qin Xiao stood quietly at the side and watched the four of them frolicking. Only when Xiao Li received the flowers did he say, "Let's go in first!"
They entered the house. Xiao Li took them to the sofa and served them tea before taking them to the dining room for dinner.
Qin Xiao had ordered the food from outside. The food was excellent in color, aroma, and taste.
They took their seats and ate briefly before starting to chat…
Feng Qing was a carefree person, so she didn't feel awkward in front of Qin Xiao. She asked directly, "Professor Qin, I'm quite curious why you agreed to this marriage so quickly."
Xiao Wenjing and Dai Zhihan also wanted to ask this same question. They had been friends with Xiao Li for a few years. Based on their understanding of Xiao Li, she was very serious about this marriage…
Therefore, they were actually quite worried that Qin Xiao was not serious. This man was both handsome and successful in his career. If such a person married someone so casually, could he be a playboy?
When Qin Xiao heard this, he glanced at Xiao Li and said with a smile, "Didn't Xiao Li tell you? Although we got married in a hurry, the marriage wasn't decided at the last minute. I knew who my wife was and decided who I would marry in this life three years ago.
Moreover, I only married Xiao Li after passing a few years of assessment by my in-laws.
I've been waiting for several years to marry Xiao Li. When my Father-in-law mentioned it, I was filled with joy. How could I not agree to the marriage?"
When Feng Qing and the other two heard this, their mouths opened in disbelief. They turned their necks stiffly to look at Xiao Li…
That accusing gaze made Xiao Li feel guilty.
Feng Qing and the other two were furious!
Since Little Li had kept such a big inside story from them and caused their first question to suffer defeat, how could they continue to ask?
Xiao Li was helpless under their gazes and could only turn to look at Qin Xiao pitifully…
She did not mean to hide it from them. When she first mentioned this marriage to Feng Qing and the others, she did not know that Qin Xiao had been selected by her parents three years ago!
When Qin Xiao saw Xiao Li's gaze, he simply smiled and explained to Feng Qing and the others what had happened before.
In the end, Feng Qing and the other two stopped asking questions.
In their opinion, their best friend had benefited greatly from this marriage!
After lunch, as Xiao Wenjing and Feng Qing had to return to the hospital for duty, Xiao Li brought the three of them to the second floor to look around. After staying for a while, Feng Qing and the other two left.
As soon as they left, Xiao Li went to take a nap. She had to work the first night shift tonight. She would not be able to adapt later. So she should catch up on her sleep!
She slept until 3:30 in the afternoon and woke up refreshed.
Seeing that she was awake, Qin Xiao smiled. "Do you want to continue sleeping?"
Xiao Li shook her head. "I'm not sleeping anymore."
Qin Xiao said, "Then get up and eat something. I've prepared something for you to eat before we go to the hospital."
Xiao Li nodded and sat on the bed for a while before getting up to change.
After eating a little, seeing that it was almost time, Xiao Li set off for the hospital.
Downstairs in the emergency department, Xiao Li smiled and said to Qin Xiao, "Alright, I'm going to work. Go back quickly!
You have to sleep well tonight without me!"
Qin Xiao nodded. "Alright, go ahead!"
Tonight is bound to be a sleepless night. I'm already used to having you by my side. How can I sleep alone…
