Chapter 1076: Well-Matched Couple
Although he felt speechless, Qiao Yanjue smiled.
“Don’t worry, I will definitely treat Bei Bei well and will not let her suffer.”
Although he was not happy with Qi Zhi’an’s att.i.tude, Qiao Yanjue still understood his good intentions.
It was good that Qi Zhi’an treated Xia Xibei as his niece.
With a status like Qi Zhi’an’s, he wondered how many people were looking forward to being his junior!
“That’s good,” Qi Zhi’an nodded his head in satisfaction.
With his experience and ability to judge people, of course he could see whether Qiao Yanjue was telling the truth or not.
He looked back and forth between the two young people, and then he had to admit it: the two were indeed a perfect match!
The guy was handsome and the girl was beautiful, and their auras looked very harmonious. Their gazes for each other were so sweet that he knew at first glance that they were in a good relations.h.i.+p.
However, when he thought of Xia Xibei’s age, Qi Zhi’an couldn’t help but think of his daughter.
Qi Xin was about the same age as Xia Xibei, but she was so busy with her studies that she couldn’t even think about dating.
As her father, Qi Zhi’an also did not think about his daughter’s love life.
The thought of his beautiful, lovely daughter becoming someone’s wife one day made Qi Zhi’an feel a little overwhelmed.
He hurriedly put this thought aside.
Xia Xibei was not his daughter, and he had no right to interfere too much.
Moreover, Xia Xibei was not the same as Qi Xin.
Although they were of the same age, they were different in many ways.
Although Qi Xin was outstanding, she couldn’t measure up to Xia Xibei.
Qi Xin was not Xia Xibei’s rival. It was not only her ability, but also her personality and way of handling things.
Xia Xibei looked young, but her personality was very mature and more stable than most adults. He did not worry that she would be cheated in love.
Of course, Qiao Yanjue was not that kind of person either.
“Do you have the ointment?” Qi Zhi’an hurriedly changed the topic.
“Right,” Xia Xibei nodded and handed a small bottle over. “Take a look.”
“Great!”
Qi Zhi’an enthusiastically took the bottle and opened it.
As soon as it was opened, its scent instantly made Qi Zhi’an feel refreshed.
The scent was not too strong, very mild with the fragrance of bone lotus.
The ointment was light green and looked crystal clear, very beautiful.
Qi Zhi’an brought the bottle to his nose and sniffed it carefully.
“Can I try it?”
“Yes,” Xia Xibei nodded.
Qi Zhi’an carefully picked up a bit of the ointment with his nail and rubbed it on the back of his hand.
After wiping it away, he smelled it for a moment, then nodded in satisfaction.
“Good stuff!”
He had also used the bone lotus pistil to make medicine before, and it ended up being the same green ointment. However, that ointment was dark in color and did not have such a refres.h.i.+ng smell.
Moreover, the effect wasn’t as good either.
He looked at Xia Xibei with a complicated gaze and couldn’t help but shake his head.
Although there were talented people in every new generation, this new generation was simply too much!
He took a deep breath before suppressing the thoughts that were churning in his mind. He handed the ointment back and casually asked, “How was this made?”
“Oh, it’s simple,” Xia Xibei casually replied. “First the pistil is soaked, followed by… Then…”
Qi Zhi’an had just casually asked the question. He did not want to know too much detail. After all, it could be considered a secret.
To his surprise, Xia Xibei really answered!
Listening to her answer, he was a little shocked, not knowing whether he should interrupt her.
Her answering him without reservations made him feel a little sheepish.
