From abandoned baby to CEO

After hanging up the phone, Sun Xue and Liu Bin drove to Jack's house.

Jack only said on the phone that Alice had a health problem, but he didn't elaborate. Sun Xue couldn't help wondering: "Did Alice have a problem with the medicine she took?"

As soon as I entered the room, I saw Alice with a frown on her face, holding her stomach and sitting on the sofa, sighing restlessly.

"Jack, is Alice feeling unwell?"

Seeing Alice's appearance, Sun Xue's heart skipped a beat.

Jack looked frustrated: "Sun Xue, are you sure Chinese medicine is safe?"

"Safe! Absolutely safe!"

Alice was in a very low mood and looked terrified: "Sun Xue, I think I was poisoned by the Chinese medicine I drank."

"Poisoning from Chinese medicine?"

Sun Xue's mind was stunned for a moment.

She had never heard that Chinese medicine could cause poisoning.

Alice described to Sun Xue in detail the "poisoning" symptoms in her body.

After getting up in the morning, she vaguely felt uncomfortable in her stomach. When she went to the bathroom and accidentally saw her own excrement, she was shocked.

The excrement was all black, which almost scared her to death. Her first reaction was that she was poisoned by the Chinese medicine.

Then she had diarrhea for no apparent reason and ran to the bathroom many times in the morning. Her legs became weak after running so much that she had never experienced such a condition before and her face turned black.

She immediately told Jack about this, and Jack was also very scared and immediately thought of asking her for help.

After hearing this, Sun Xue felt relieved.

Her first reaction was that this was a normal adverse reaction to the medication, not poisoning as Jack said.

To be on the safe side, Sun Xue immediately called Boss Liu and briefly described Alice's situation.

Boss Liu laughed on the other end of the phone: "Look how scared the foreigner is, isn't this normal?"

However, Sun Xue was still worried, so she asked Boss Liu to get Doctor Wang's phone number and called him.

Doctor Wang was deeply impressed by Alice. After listening to Sun Xue's description, he smiled and comforted her: "Don't be afraid. This is normal detoxification in the body. The symptoms will disappear in two days. Remember to let the patient drink more water."

Sun Xue relayed Doctor Wang's words to Jack verbatim.

Jack was still a little worried: "Sun Xue, should we go to the hospital for a check-up?"

Sun Xue said decisively: "Jack, don't worry, believe me, Alice is fine."

Sun Xue was so sure because she had experienced this before when taking Chinese medicine. Besides, Dr. Wang was such a famous Chinese medicine doctor, so his words must be authoritative.

Sun Xue comforted Alice, and a smile appeared on Alice's frightened face.

"Sun Xue, are you still going to take your medicine today?" Alice looked at Sun Xue with a confused look on her face.

"Drink it! You will be cured only after you finish drinking these six doses of medicine."

Alice spread her hands reluctantly, with a look of disgust on her face: "Sun Xue, this Chinese medicine is simply too hard to drink and difficult to swallow."

When Sun Xue heard this, she laughed to herself and said: This medicine is already very delicious. You haven't tried any medicine that tastes bad!

Sun Xue told Alice a secret to taking Chinese medicine: "Close your eyes, drink the medicine in one breath, and eat a piece of candy immediately."

After hearing what Sun Xue said, Alice regained her confidence.

Sun Xue couldn't help but shake her head. This foreigner was too delicate! When she was a child, she was not so afraid to take medicine when she was sick.

Sun Xue personally prepared the medicine for Alice and watched her drink it bit by bit.

The method Sun Xue taught Alice to drink the medicine was indeed effective. Although Alice drank it with a frown on her face, she smiled with relief after drinking it: "Sun Xue, thank you. In fact, Chinese medicine is not as bad as I imagined."

Seeing Alice happy, Jack was in high spirits and insisted on asking Sun Xue and Liu Bin to stay for lunch.

"Sun Xue, to thank you, my Chinese friend, I decided to cook our country's delicacies to treat you well."

Sun Xue gladly accepted Jack's invitation.

Sun Xue accompanied Jack to the supermarket to buy ingredients, while Liu Bin chatted with Alice at home.

Jack was going to cook their local delicacy, baked pudding and sausage and mash.

When Sun Xue and Jack appeared on the street, they immediately attracted the curious eyes of passers-by. Everyone looked at them chatting as if they were looking at giant pandas.

There are still relatively few foreigners in Quanzhou City. When you see foreigners on the street, everyone will take a second look. Sun Xue is very proud of everyone's envious eyes.

She had a very happy chat with Jack. They talked about Jack's work. From the chat, Sun Xue learned that the training school where Jack worked was very popular.

He told Sun Xue that before coming to China, he taught English at a local ordinary university.

When he learned that many young Chinese people were starting to study abroad and English training was becoming popular, he realized this was a good opportunity.

It just so happened that the company where Alice worked sent her to work in China, so he resolutely quit his job, accompanied his wife to live in China, and successfully applied for an English training job.

He also inadvertently revealed that the salary for this job was very generous, which would allow him to live more comfortably here than in his country.

He has made plans for the future. He likes China very much and may live in China forever. He is optimistic about the English training market in China and plans to open his own English training school in the future.

Sun Xue was surprised by Jack's words. She didn't expect that China's English training market would have such great potential.

The two chatted all the way and soon arrived at the supermarket.

While shopping for ingredients, Jack introduced Sun Xue to their country's cuisine. He told Sun Xue that when she went to their country, she must try the local authentic baked pudding and sausage and mashed potatoes.

Naturally, their chat attracted many curious eyes of customers.

"Sun Xue."

The two were picking potatoes when a familiar voice sounded in Sun Xue's ears.

As soon as Sun Xue looked up, she shouted in surprise: "Teacher Li!"

Li Sisi, wearing a black dress, looked at Sun Xue with a smile on her face.

"Teacher Li, what a coincidence? Are you here shopping at the supermarket too?"

Li Sisi was a little embarrassed: "My home is nearby." Then she stared at Jack in front of her and asked Sun Xue, "Who is this?"

Sun Xue introduced Jack generously: "Jack, a foreign friend I just met."

Sun Xue immediately introduced Li Sisi to Jack. Perhaps Li Sisi heard the conversation between Sun Xue and Jack, so she asked curiously, "Sun Xue, is this your teacher?"

Sun Xue shook her head: "We just met yesterday."

"We just met yesterday? You didn't go to a training school to learn English?"

"No, I taught myself and memorized the IELTS textbook."

"What? You said you taught yourself and memorized an IELTS textbook?" Li Sisi looked at Sun Xue as if she were a gorilla.

"Yes! What's wrong? Teacher Li." Sun Xue looked at Li Sisi calmly.

"It's okay... you guys take your time to choose, I'll go over there and take a look." Li Sisi walked away immediately with an embarrassed look on her face.
