Chapter 49: Chapter 49 Fang Fei's Gift

The voice hadn't been out for long when Huang Xue, drenched, slightly opened the door and poked her head out.After soaking in the bathtub and noticing nothing unusual, and not seeing Xia Liu come in, she finally rinsed off and came out to call him.

But the moment she poked her head out, it felt like a bomb exploded inside her head, and a buzzing sound lingered in her ears.

Fang Fei and Xia Liu were equally dumbfounded, especially Fang Fei, who had just started to believe Xia Liu, never expecting to witness such a scene the next second.

"Sister Fang, how did you get here?" Huang Xue asked, trying to stay composed.

"Just passing by, hope I didn't disturb you guys?" Fang Fei blinked at Huang Xue, her words not masking her implications.

"Sister Fang, don't get me wrong, we are nothing!"

"Yes! We are nothing!"

While Huang Xue was defending herself, Xia Liu also started to explain.

Unfortunately, how could Fang Fei believe that? At the door, she could tell that the voice was Huang Xue's.

"Oh, feeling shy, huh? No need to be nervous; we are all adults here."

"Sister Fang, there's really nothing between us." Huang Xue was almost crying. If only she had known this would happen, she would have stayed inside and not come out.

"Sister Fang, you really misunderstood, I was just treating Manager Huang."

"Treating? You mean!" Fang Fei seemed to realize something and looked at Xia Liu with a face full of surprise.

Xia Liu didn't know if Fang Fei was aware of Huang Xue's condition but could only nod, letting Huang Xue explain the details herself.

At this point, there was no need for Huang Xue to hide anything, so she explained in detail why Xia Liu had come over today.

"This can't be true, it's curable?" Fang Fei couldn't help but exclaim.

She knew a little about Huang Xue's condition; curing it was nearly impossible, yet Xia Liu had dared to guarantee a cure and had already taken action.

She distinctly remembered Xia Liu claiming to be just a rural doctor from the village, not only curing genetic diseases but now even curing complicated conditions like Huang Xue's—calling him a divine doctor wouldn't be enough.

"Xue'er, how are you feeling now, are you healed?" After her initial surprise, Fang Fei quickly asked.

"I don't know, right now I feel about the same as when I'm not sick," Huang Xue said with a bitter smile, somewhat doubting she had been tricked by Xia Liu.

"Xia Liu, Xue'er's condition should be better now, right?"

"I need to check her pulse and see if she will show symptoms later." Xia Liu was honest; Huang Xue's condition was an unusual mix of symptoms that could only be monitored over time.

Twenty minutes later, Huang Xue came out from the partition wearing a floral dress, her complexion visibly improved, cheeks rosy beyond normal, and her eyes adding a captivating charm.

Xia Liu checked her pulse and concluded that she was much better than before. Previously, she had to deal with the illness many times in a day, which not only drained her physically but also left her mentally languished.

Now she seemed like a completely different person, almost giving the illusion that she was more enchanting than before.

"It's confirmed, Manager Huang has recovered." After a moment, Xia Liu announced the result.

"Hehe, I guessed it would be like this; even genetic diseases that the hospital couldn't solve were cured by a few of your needles, this problem of Xue'er's was hardly enough to trouble you," Fang Fei praised him continuously.

"Uh uh uh…" Huang Xue hadn't quite caught up, murmured, then laughed as tears continuously streaked down from her eyes.

At last, her illness had healed. Since she had fallen ill, she had lost too much.

"Xue'er, don't cry, everything will get better from now on."

"Sister Fang, I'm not crying, I'm just so happy. I've never been this happy in my life." After saying that, Huang Xue ran into Fang Fei's arms and burst into loud tears.

Xia Liu silently watched the two women, suddenly feeling a lot of warmth in his heart. This sense of proud achievement could only be felt when one truly helped others, beyond words.

"Xue'er, since you've recovered, I was just about to toss the gift away." When Huang Xue calmed down, Fang Fei pulled out a beautifully ribboned box from her pocket.

"What gift? How could you toss it if it's for me!" Saying this, Huang Xue snatched the box and then eagerly tore it open.

Fang Fei was just about to stop her from opening the box, but Huang Xue moved so quickly that the box was already open, and then the three people in the office fell silent.

Xia Liu felt a surge of heat increasing continuously, his blood seemed to flow faster as he saw what it was—a set of tools with a ribbon on it!

Fang Fei had actually given Huang Xue such a gift, and he instantly revised his understanding of women, especially those god-like beauties with heavenly faces.

"Sister Fang, you're going to kill me with this." Huang Xue acted as if nothing was wrong, yet her words carried a lot of suffering.

"What? I didn't know Xia Liu had cured you," Fang Fei spread her hands. If she had known, she would have quietly tossed the box away.

"No, what I mean is, you picking this out for me, aren't you afraid I might break it?"

"Pfft!"

Xia Liu felt internally injured at that instant. Did Huang Xue not realize he was still sitting there, or did she simply not consider him a man?

"I'm sorry about that. I'll be more careful next time." Seeing Xia Liu's face lined with frustration, Fang Fei weakly said.

"But I really like it. Although I won't need it now, I will keep it."

"Xue'er, you can still use it, especially since you don't have a boyfriend yet."

"Sister Fang, you don't have a boyfriend either, does that mean..."

"Enough, both of you. Can we stop this conversation, please?" Xia Liu couldn't listen anymore. With two plump lambs discussing which one's meat was more tender right in front of him, the hungry wolf beside them could only silently salivate; the feeling was worse than death.

"Uh, uh, uh... Sister Fang, let's speak quietly."

Following Fang Fei's gaze, Huang Xue's face immediately turned red.

"You patrons chat slowly, I have to go now." Without waiting for the two women to reply, Xia Liu got up and ran off.

Just as Xia Liu was about to drive away, Fang Fei called him, asking him to wait.

Xia Liu also had some questions for Fang Fei, this mysterious woman, and seeing the opportunity, he wanted to understand more.

In the quiet and elegant private room on the second floor, Xia Liu and Fang Fei sat opposite each other, showing a clear contrast. Fang Fei was dressed bright and shiny, while Xia Liu looked like a country bumpkin. If people saw them, they would definitely misunderstand.

"Xia Liu, why did you only give me a few chickens yesterday? They were gone in less than a day," Fang Fei pouted unhappily at Xia Liu.

A few chickens? That was more than 200 chickens! For a family of three, that's over half a year's supply.
