22 – Baby, You’ve Tempted Me
“For a pervert like you, a few slaps are too lenient.” Because Chi Mi was beautiful, she often faced sexual harassment.
She had learned some self-defense techniques, but this scumbag had taken her by surprise when she wasn’t paying attention.
It was disgusting.
So disgusting that Chi Mi felt like throwing up.
She grabbed her bag. “I’m leaving first.”
Her colleague Zhao Jing, who had been singing, followed her out. “Are you okay?”
“I’m fine, just got touched a bit.”
“Director Zhang has always been lecherous, so I usually just sing at KTV and don’t go near him.” Zhao Jing sighed. “Sigh, don’t think being a doctor is all glamorous. In reality, few experienced male doctors don’t have mistresses. They keep their wives at home while flaunting their affairs outside! It’s disgusting! A profession doesn’t define a person’s character!”
“You could report him.”
“There are no cameras in the private room, and even if there were, would his subtle actions have been captured? Besides, those people are all in cahoots, birds of a feather. If Director Zhang is petty, Chi Mi, you should be careful! You look…” Zhao Jing stared at her. “Too beautiful! Just from what I’ve overheard, many people fantasize about you.”
Chi Mi was used to it. When she was abroad, she received confessions every day and would always say she had a boyfriend.
Yang Siquan was only useful as a shield.
“People’s minds are their own; I can’t control them.” Chi Mi just felt disgusted and needed to go home, take a bath, and get a good night’s sleep.
But she didn’t expect to be targeted the very next day.
It was her patient, but she wasn’t allowed into the operating room. Instead, she was assigned miscellaneous tasks and had to work night shifts.
Chi Mi worked night shifts for a week straight, her days and nights reversed, leaving her mind in a daze.
When she received Ye Zhuohuai’s call, she was just about to leave.
“Darling! I’m back! Did you miss me?”
“Missed…” Chi Mi replied absentmindedly, changing her shoes and heading out.
Ye Zhuohuai heard the door close. “Baby, you don’t have to rush out to wait for me. I just got off the plane; it’ll take an hour to get back to the city.”
Still so narcissistic.
Who was waiting for him!
“I’m going to the hospital for my shift. You must be tired after your business trip; you should rest.” Chi Mi walked toward the hospital. She had never been this exhausted even when she was abroad.
Ahh!
“You didn’t go looking for other men behind my back, did you?” Ye Zhuohuai got into the car. “Hmm?”
Chi Mi smiled gently. “How could I, Ah Huai? Having you is enough for me…”
One Ye Zhuohuai was already hard enough to handle.
Looking for someone else?
Did she want to live or not!
“I’m in a hurry to get to the hospital. Let’s meet tomorrow, bye.” Chi Mi didn’t like talking on the phone while walking.
Once, she had been talking on the phone with Chi An while walking and accidentally bumped into a tree.
Ye Zhuohuai listened to the dial tone after the call ended. “She didn’t even say she missed me!”
Yi Shen, who was driving, said expressionlessly, “President, you didn’t say you missed Miss Chi either.”
“Just because I didn’t say it doesn’t mean I don’t miss her! Would I call her the moment I got off the plane if I didn’t miss her? Going to the hospital for a shift? To the hospital!” Ye Zhuohuai missed Chi Mi desperately.
He wanted to hold her, to kiss her.
He had never felt such intense longing for home during business trips before.
This time, being away for a week felt like a year of torment.
Jinge Hospital.Chi Mi sat at the duty station, the young nurse beside her staring for a long while before timidly asking, “Doctor Chi, you’ve been on duty for a week straight. This arrangement is so unreasonable. Did you offend someone?”
Before Chi Mi could respond, a familiar male voice rang out.
“Offended who?”
Ye Zhuohuai walked in, holding a gift box in his right hand and a bouquet of red roses in his left. “Darling, surprise!”
Why is he here again?
Isn’t he tired?
He looks full of energy.
“Come with me to the office.” Chi Mi said to the nurse before heading out.
The nurse watched them with starry eyes. Ah! So handsome!
Is this Doctor Chi’s boyfriend?
He’s incredibly handsome!
They look so perfect together!
Mom, I’m shipping them!
At night, the outpatient building was always quiet, the white fluorescent lights in the corridor making it feel even colder and more desolate.
From the moment Ye Zhuohuai saw Chi Mi, his gaze never left her. “Darling, you look tired.”
“If you stayed up every night, you’d look tired too.”
“Every night? Darling, you love me so much. Even when I’m away on business, you still keep the same hours as me.” Ye Zhuohuai set down the roses and gift box, pulling her into his arms.
The door was slightly ajar. Even though she knew no one would come down the corridor at this hour, Chi Mi still felt nervous, afraid someone might see them.
Ye Zhuohuai wrapped his arms around her slender waist. “You look good in uniform too.”
“Uniform temptation.”
“It’s tempting me…” Ye Zhuohuai lowered his head, nuzzling her fair neck. “Sweetheart, you still smell so good.”
It tickled.
Chi Mi’s neck was sensitive, the tingling sensation quickly spreading throughout her body.
“Stop… stop rubbing…”
Ye Zhuohuai’s lips brushed against her neck as he murmured softly, “How about a kiss instead?”
“Mmm…”
Chi Mi tilted her head back, her eyes hazy as she stared at the ceiling, the white light gradually blurring in her vision.
Satisfied, Ye Zhuohuai left a faint love bite on her neck before cupping her face and planting a kiss on her lips.
“You should go…”
Chi Mi urged him to leave.
Ye Zhuohuai hadn’t even let go of her yet when his dear girlfriend gave him the order to leave, breaking his heart.
“Leave? No way. I’m staying with you on duty.” He kissed her cheek again. “Your brother said you like tea, so I brought you a gift—premium-grade West Lake Longjing.”
“Thank you.”
Chi Mi was too exhausted to deal with him, her voice weak and listless.
Ye Zhuohuai touched her forehead. She wasn’t running a fever.
Damn it!
What kind of lousy hospital is this!
“You still haven’t answered me. Who did you offend?” Ye Zhuohuai pressed his forehead against hers. “Darling, isn’t the reason you chose me as your boyfriend so I could back you up? If you don’t tell me yourself, I’ll send someone to investigate.”
Chi Mi briefly explained what had happened recently. She had reported it to the hospital’s disciplinary committee, but those people were all old acquaintances covering for each other. Director Zhang was still thriving, while her own situation had become difficult.
After hearing this, Ye Zhuohuai was so angry it felt like his heart, liver, spleen, lungs, and kidneys were all hurting!
“What kind of toad dares to covet my sweetheart? He’s tired of living!” Ye Zhuohuai clenched his fists, fire blazing in his eyes.
“He’s ugly.” Chi Mi gently patted his chest. “Don’t get worked up, stay calm, stay calm…””What calm? I can’t be calm!” Ye Zhuohuai wanted to kill that bastard right now!
How dare he flirt with his woman! He should have done his homework—Chi Mi is Ye Zhuohuai’s wife!
Chi Mi looked at him coldly as he raged. “I allowed you to stay with me. Can you calm down?”
