Regarding Qin Liuxi's refusal to keep Xi Zheng, Qi Qian was somewhat surprised. After all, Qin Liuxi's actions had completely convinced and made Xi Zheng grateful; had she been a servant, she would never dare to rebel.
Yet Qin Liuxi didn't keep her, and even provided her with guidance out of her confusion, without taking a single penny.
In a languid manner, Qin Liuxi said, "I have no idea how many lives I've saved through my medical practice. If everyone were like her, volunteering themselves as slaves, wouldn't I be surrounded by swarms of servants? As a mere Taoist, where would I find enough silver to support all these servants? Do they really think I run a Charitable Hall?"
"You cannot truly mean that, Doctor Qin," Qi Qian didn't believe her words.
