Chapter 170: First Taste of Her Lips
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
After a busy night, Qin Xi had achieved her goal. When she returned, it was already past three in the morning. Han Shi was sleeping soundly.
After washing up, Qin Xi quietly crawled into bed.
Perhaps her movement had disturbed Han Shi’s sleep, but he opened his sleepy eyes a crack and muttered something. He then flung his arm over Qin Xi, pulled her into his arms, and snuggled.
Qin Xi’s body stiffened. When she felt the man’s light breath on her neck, her heart almost jumped out of her throat.
She tried to push, wanting Han Shi to move his face away. However, the more she moved, the tighter Han Shi hugged her. Qin Xi could even feel Han Shi’s lips brushing against her neck.
Qin Xi held her breath nervously. She subconsciously clenched her fists and froze, not daring to move.
After about a minute, seeing that Han Shi did not continue, her body slowly relaxed and softened.
Overwhelmed by sleepiness, Qin Xi fell asleep in Han Shi’s arms. Han Shi, who was supposed to be asleep, opened his eyes and smiled. He secretly kissed Qin Xi on the lips and said, “Thank you!”
The next day, Qin Xi came to Wei Zhi’s orchard.
Wei Zhi looked much healthier than he was a few days ago. His face had a healthy glow and his eyes were clear.
Seeing her, Wei Zhi was so excited that his eyes were wet with tears. He said incoherently, “Divine Doctor Qin, I went to the hospital for a checkup, and it turned out I’m fine now. Thank you. If it weren’t for you, I…”
Seeing that he was so excited that he was about to cry, Qin Xi said with a smile, “Mr. Wei, you don’t have to thank me. We are just doing a trade and don’t owe each other anything.”
“No, that’s different.” How could some fruit trees be comparable to life? Wei Zhi shook his head. “In short, thank you, Divine Doctor Qin!”
“Alright, since you want to thank me, thank me then!” Qin Xi shrugged. “I came here today to get the contract signed. Is it convenient for you, Mr. Wei?”
“Yes, of course. I’ve already prepared the contract, including the land contract.” Wei Zhi took out the contract and placed it in front of Qin Xi. “Divine Doctor Qin, I plan to sell this place to you for 50,000 yuan. What do you think?”
Fifty thousand?
Qin Xi was stunned. “Are you sure?”
45-year rights to the land was at least a few hundred thousand yuan, not to mention the mature fruit trees outside, which was estimated to be at least 500,000 yuan. However, he only asked for 50,000 yuan. This was pretty much equivalent to selling it to Qin Xi for free.
“I’m positive.”
Wei Zhi pointed at the signature on the contract. “I’ve already signed it. As long as Divine Doctor Qin signs it, this orchard will be yours.”
Qin Xi reminded him, “Mr. Wei, you’re making a loss!”
“To me, it’s worth it if I can make friends with someone like Divine Doctor Qin.” Wei Zhi praised.
Qin Xi thought for a moment and said, “Alright, 50,000 yuan. However, Mr. Wei, can you help me find a car to transport these fruit trees?”
Wei Zhi laughed and said, “Divine Doctor Qin, don’t worry. I know someone who can do this. Leave it to me.”
“However, Divine Doctor Qin, what I don’t understand is why you didn’t just use this place so that you can save yourself the trouble.” Wei Zhi asked curiously.
Of course, Qin Xi also wanted to use this place as her plantation base. Unfortunately, this place was close to the road and the fruits she planted were very special. She didn’t want too many people to find out just yet.
Therefore, before her business empire was built, she would rather go to the trouble of moving so many heavy fruit trees.
Moreover, her initial goal was to make Shangwan Village rich, so naturally the base had to be in the village.
