Chapter 100: Chapter 97: Qin Zhao Shows Off Affection, Infuriates Xu Zhiwei
"Do you also want Dragon Blood Ginseng?"
Elder Yu furrowed his brows, he hadn’t expected someone else to eye his treasure.
They all stood in the hall where guests continually entered, clearly, it wasn’t a good place for conversation.
"Follow me upstairs and then we can sit down and talk," Elder Yu commanded, and everyone naturally followed him.
The person in charge came over too, taking care of some hospitality matters.
Qin Zhao walked right beside Elder Yu, while Qin Kejing and Xu Zhiwei fell a bit behind.
Xu Zhiwei asked softly Qin Kejing, "Has your sister gotten married? I haven’t received a wedding invitation from the Qin family."
Both were students at the Imperial Capital Business School and classmates.
Their relationship was just ordinary, and recently, because of an issue with the land in the west of the city, Qin Family’s company was penalized.
Qin Kejing wanted to get closer to Xu Zhiwei to have her speak on her behalf to her uncle, so their friendship grew.
Xu Zhiwei’s uncle was Lu Tingming.
"Not married, but boyfriends, she has plenty."
Qin Kejing thought of the scandals about Qin Zhao online and looked disdainful.
But Xu Zhiwei, hearing her response, frowned.
Not married?
Then why was she wearing a wedding ring?
She commented, "She’s wearing the wedding ring though."
"It’s not a wedding ring, probably just ordinary jewelry."
Qin Kejing was convinced Qin Zhao was not married.
They were a family; how could a sister marry without the sister knowing?
Xu Zhiwei felt a sense of relief.
It had taken her great effort to convince her parents not to hold any prejudices about Chu Yan.
Additionally, her father said the Lu family had accepted Chu Yan and highly regarded him.
Doctors had said she wouldn’t live past twenty-five, but Chu Yan had said there was hope.
She too hoped she could make it, so that she could...
She took a deep breath, her eyes fixed on the Dragon Blood Ginseng with determination.
Though it couldn’t cure her, it could prolong her life.
They arrived at the reception room and sat down. The person in charge poured them tea and said, "Elder Yu is suddenly tied up with something, please sit for a while, he will be here soon."
The person in charge left the reception room, leaving just the three of them.
Qin Kejing sipped her tea and remarked to Qin Zhao, "What are you doing following us up here? You want to buy something, but don’t even have enough money, yet you have the audacity to come?"
Qin Zhao glanced at her indifferently, "In this world, not everything can be bought with money. After all, there are so many rich people, but money isn’t omnipotent."
"But being without money is absolutely unacceptable, do you think Elder Yu would give you Dragon Blood Ginseng for free?"
Qin Zhao smiled, "I can actually make him give it to me for free."
"Day hasn’t turned to night yet and you’re already dreaming?"
Qin Kejing couldn’t help but sneer, feeling Qin Zhao’s intelligence had decreased over the years, holding onto such unrealistic fantasies and even having the audacity to voice them?
Qin Zhao leisurely sipped her tea, unconcerned.
After all, she was determined to obtain the Dragon Blood Ginseng, what difference did having money make?
Elder Yu’s problem wasn’t something that money could solve.
It wasn’t that Qin Zhao was being arrogant, but she was certain that only she could solve it.
When Xu Zhiwei heard their conversation, her thoughts were similar to Qin Kejing’s, and she also felt that Qin Zhao was the kind of celebrity who had beauty but no brains.
However, Xu Zhiwei wouldn’t openly show her disdain like Qin Kejing did.
Pensively staring at Qin Zhao’s ring, Xu Zhiwei suddenly said, "Miss Qin, your ring is quite beautiful. May I ask where you bought it?"
"It was custom-made. You can’t find it in stores."
Xu Zhiwei showed a look of disappointment. "Is that so? I really think it’s beautiful and wanted to buy a similar one."
She sighed and then added, "I really like this ring. Miss Qin, can you sell it to me? Price is not an issue, you can name your own."
Qin Zhao looked innocent. "But this is my wedding ring. What if I sell it to you and my husband makes a fuss? I don’t even like wearing rings; he forced me to wear it.
If he finds out that I sold the ring, that would be the end of it."
Xu Zhiwei’s expression immediately stiffened, and her smile froze on her face.
Her voice trembling slightly, "This is a wedding ring?"
She then looked at Qin Kejing, "Didn’t you say your sister wasn’t married?"
Qin Kejing also looked at Qin Zhao with confusion, "Yeah, when did you get married? Shouldn’t you have informed our family about something like this? You didn’t even get our parents’ approval!"
"When I moved my household registration, they didn’t stop me, so what right do they have to interfere in my marriage?"
Qin Zhao leaned back in her chair and leisurely twirled the ring on her finger.
Seeing Xu Zhiwei’s displeased expression, her lips curved into a slight smile, feeling immensely satisfied inside.
"Who is your husband then? Which wild man?"
Qin Kejing thought of the man from the Ruan family banquet. She felt that such a man couldn’t possibly be married to Qin Zhao, at most he was just toying with her, so the groom definitely wasn’t him!
Xu Zhiwei stared intently at Qin Zhao, still holding onto a last shred of hope.
"Haven’t you met him?"
Qin Zhao noticed the expressions of the two and there was a playful look in her eyes.
"It’s the one who gave me the Red Agate Bracelet, a doctor from the Imperial Capital First District Hospital. He doesn’t earn much and still insisted on gifting me this expensive bracelet. I told him I didn’t want it."
Upon hearing this, Xu Zhiwei’s hands trembled, spilling a bit of water from her teacup.
A doctor from the Imperial Capital First District Hospital, that would be...
For her, a Red Agate Bracelet wasn’t very expensive, but Chu Yan’s salary was indeed not high. If he bought such a costly bracelet worth tens of millions, could it have depleted his savings?
Even though Xu Zhiwei masked it well, her gaze at Qin Zhao still couldn’t help but carry a hint of jealousy.
Moreover, her already frail heart felt uneasy, causing her chest to feel extremely tight.
After Qin Zhao had deliberately flaunted this "display of affection," Elder Yu finally arrived.
"Sorry, got held up by something."
He sat down and first looked towards Xu Zhiwei.
"Miss Xu, I’ve helped with your health before and know that you need good medicinal materials to sustain your life. You’ve come here in person today, and considering your grandfather’s face, I might..."
His words implied that he was going to sell to Xu Zhiwei.
Qin Zhao then interrupted him, "Elder Yu, your youngest son has been deficient for two years, not only have you been unable to cure him, but all the famous doctors you consulted were also at their wits’ end. Though it’s a bit harsh to say, I must tell you, if you don’t resolve your son’s condition soon, he might face a life or death crisis shortly."
The elder looked at Qin Zhao in shock, immediately captivated by her words.
"How do you know about this?"
He hadn’t paid any attention to Qin Zhao earlier and didn’t know who she was.
Xu Zhiwei had heard a bit about it, but Qin Zhao was an unfamiliar person to her. Why would she know about this? Moreover, she had made such a statement, deeply startling Elder Yu.
"And what do you mean by that?"
