Qin Xi didn’t even look at the number on the check. As she ate, she said, “Uncle Xia, your illness is just temporarily suppressed. If you want to fully recover, you still need another session of acupuncture!”
Xia Zhenguo’s expression changed drastically and he asked in disbelief, “What did you say? Did you say I can recover?”
It had to be noted that he had cerebral infarction. Other than craniotomy, this kind of disease could only be controlled by drugs. There was no way to cure it at all. Moreover, it was like a time bomb, threatening to take away his life at any time.
Now that Qin Xi said that it could be cured, he was wild with joy and anticipation.
Xia Tangxin stood up excitedly. “Xi, is what you said true? Can my father really be cured?”
Then, she muttered worriedly, “But didn’t they say that this illness can’t be cured?”
Qin Xi said calmly, “Just because they can’t cure you doesn’t mean I can’t. Uncle Xia, don’t worry. You’re not a short-lived person. The fact that you can survive today means that you’re blessed. Good people won’t die easily.”
It was obvious that Xia Zhenguo did not know that QIn Xi was good at face-reading. He only thought that she was saying nice words to comfort him. Even so, he was in a very good mood.
“Really? That’s great.”
Xia Tangxin believed her and asked impatiently, “Xi, when are you going to treat my father?”
Qin Xi thought for a moment. “There’s no hurry. Uncle Xia, you can go for a checkup first. After the checkup, I’ll treat you.”
Xia Tangxin asked incredulously, “Why does my father have to do a checkup?”
Since QIn Xi said that the illness could be cured, why didn’t she treat him right away?
Xia Tangxin did not understand, but Xia Zhenguo understood Qin Xi’s intention very well. She wanted him to check how bad his current condition was, so that there was something to compare with after the treatment. Only then could she prove that she had treated him.
He was impressed by how smart and considerate Qin Xi was.
“Alright, Xi, I’ll do as you said.”
“However, you have to hurry up, because I’m leaving Loping City in two days,” Qin Xi said.
Xia Zhenguo was stunned. “You’re not from Loping City?”
Qin Xi nodded. “My family lives in Shangwan Village. I came here to buy things. Now that I’m done buying them, I’m planning to go back home.”
“Shangwan Village? Is it the Shangwan Village near Qinglin Town?” Xia Zhenguo’s eyes lit up as he asked.
“Yes. Uncle Xia, have you been there?”
“No, but I was planning to go!”
Xia Zhenguo smiled and said, “Tangxin’s grandmother is currently in Qinglin Town. That’s where she used to live. She’s old and nostalgic and wants to spend the rest of her time there. Yesterday, she asked someone to send me some fresh vegetables. I haven’t had the time to eat them.”
Xia Tangxin said happily, “That’s great. Dad, can I go back with Xi?”
“Of course!”
The meal was a joyous one. Qin Xi and Xia Tangxin seemed to have become good friends. Xia Zhenguo was also happy to see that.
If what Qin Xi said about being able to cure him was true, then it was undeniable that she was a divine doctor.
Although she was young, age had nothing to do with ability. Besides, it was beneficial to befriend a divine doctor no matter what.
It was inevitable for people to suffer from illnesses. Being able to acquaint a divine doctor was equivalent to having a life-saving talisman with you at all times.
Not only that, it had been a long time since he saw Xia Tangxin being happy from the bottom of her heart. As her father, he felt guilty and happy at the same time. Of course, he had to try his best to satisfy her.
