My Mysterious Doctor and Blessed Little Wife Is Such a Tease - Chapter 362

362 Grievance

Cheng Rongfei did not believe her. She sneered. “I don’t care who you are. You’d better stay away from Brother Qing. He’s not a man you can be with.”

Gu Qing’s face immediately darkened, but Cheng Rongfei didn’t notice it. She only thought that Gu Qing respected her grandfather, so Gu Qing would naturally dote on her and protect her like her grandfather did.

Qin Xi found this girl interesting. She nodded casually and smiled. “If I can’t be with him, can you? Tell me, why should Gu Qing take a liking to you?”

“I…”

Cheng Rongfei subconsciously wanted to say something, but she was too embarrassed to say it, because she knew that she was not worthy of Gu Qing.

After thinking about it, she immediately retorted, “Hmph, I come from a good family. What about you? What do you have other than that pretty face.”

Qin Xi chuckled. “Do you think your Brother Qing will like someone like you who is good at nothing?”

She touched her face smugly. “At least I have a face. But to be honest, I’m really not someone who relies on my looks. I usually rely on my ability.”

Seeing how shameless she was, Cheng Rongfei stomped her feet in anger. “Who are you? You just said that you won’t compete with me for Brother Qing, and now you’re acting coquettishly. You, you’re simply shameless!”

“Nonsense. Fei Fei, apologize to Miss Qin!”

“Miss Cheng, please apologize immediately!”

Elder Cheng and Gu Qing reprimanded in unison, their eyes full of reproach and warning.

Cheng Rongfei was stunned by the stern reproach. When she came back to her senses, she felt extremely aggrieved. She didn’t think she had said anything wrong. Qin Xi was the one who didn’t know what was good for her. Why did her grandfather and Brother Qing shout at her?

She seemed to have suffered a huge grievance. Her eyes turned red as she shouted at her grandfather, “Grandpa, why did you shout at me for an outsider? Are you still my grandfather?”

She turned around and complained to Gu Qing, “And Brother Qing, I hate you!”

With that, she ran back crying without looking back.

Elder Cheng and Gu Qing didn’t look good. They felt that they were too embarrassed to face Qin Xi at this moment. Elder Cheng put down his pride and apologized to Qin Xi, “Miss Qin, I’m sorry. My granddaughter…”

He wanted to say, “My granddaughter is still young and insensible.” However, when he looked at Qin Xi and felt that she was about the same age as his granddaughter, he immediately changed it. “It’s my fault for not disciplining her well. Miss Qin, please don’t take it to heart.”

Qin Xi did not care about Cheng Rongfei’s words at all. If she was born in this era, she might have been affected by these words. After all, people nowadays were very reserved. No one would be happy to be labeled as a coquettish woman for no reason. This undoubtedly symbolized that there was a huge problem with a woman’s character.

However, Qin Xi was reborn from the future and was used to such hate comments. She even laughed. “It’s fine. She’s just a child. I won’t take it to heart.”

Gu Qing felt so guilty, but he didn’t know what to say. He wasn’t good with words, and he felt bad that the woman he liked was treated rudely.

He looked at Elder Cheng and did not want to stay any longer. He wanted to leave immediately after Qing Xi was done buying the acupuncture needles. “Elder Cheng, I remember that you have a set of silver needles here. My friend is very interested in silver needles. I wonder if you can take it out for her to take a look?”
