Chapter 512: Chapter 512: Are You Not a Woman?
“Where are the bodyguards outside the office?” He Jingyao didn’t look at her, instead, he cast his indifferent gaze toward Adam.
Adam felt somewhat embarrassed. The construction of the offices here was different from that in Yanzhou City, so the bodyguards were dispersed in the hallway; perhaps there was an oversight…
“Dismiss them and replace them with a few others,” He Jingyao ordered indifferently.
This clear unwelcomeness made Ye Shutong’s complexion turn somewhat unsightly.
She pursed her lips before finally speaking, “Mr. He, I have something here that you will definitely be interested in.”
Only then did He Jingyao turn his gaze toward her, his expression icy.
Ye Shutong didn’t speak but glanced at Adam, who understood and quickly turned to leave the office.
“Ms. Ye, just speak your mind,” He Jingyao’s tone was undisturbed as he casually flipped open a document.
Ye Shutong smiled, “Mr. He, when I learned of your medical condition, I became very interested. So I did some analysis and research in private. You know, someone like me who engages in research tends to be stubborn. Luckily, I have made some progress, so I wanted to share it with you, Mr. He.”
It was then that He Jingyao looked up, silent.
“You can’t be in contact with women, after all, it’s an allergic reaction,” Ye Shutong met his cold gaze, “When estrogen reaches a certain concentration, it will harm your body, so when you come into contact with women, you feel uncomfortable, which is your body’s way of signaling you. Essentially, it’s to protect you.”
He Jingyao finally smiled, “So?”
“But your wife, Su Zixi, is an exception,” Ye Shutong’s red lips curved gracefully, parting and closing, “At the last dinner at the President Mansion, I got her DNA and conducted a spectral analysis with a friend. It turned out she carries a very rare protein, which negates your rejection response, so she can come near you. However, she is still a woman, so when you are with her, she will still harm your body.”
“It seems to make sense,” He Jingyao nodded calmly.
Ye Shutong pursed her lips, evidently not expecting his reaction to be so calm.
Seeing this, He Jingyao suddenly laughed, “Anything else? I’m listening. Ms. Ye’s analysis is very interesting.”
“Mr. He, isn’t this conclusion enough for you to make a decision?” Ye Shutong looked deeply at him.
“Of course, I have already made a decision, but what does it have to do with you?” He Jingyao looked at her with a smile that was not quite a smile, “By that reasoning, Ms. Ye, do you also carry this special protein? So, should I also stay away from you?”
“No, I don’t,” Ye Shutong suddenly laughed, “I’m different from her, I won’t harm you.”
“Are you not a woman, Ms. Ye?” He Jingyao’s tone carried a hint of mockery.
“Can’t you see whether I am a woman, Mr. He?” Ye Shutong smiled confidently, “But indeed, I won’t harm you. If you want to know why, I have here…
“Ms. Ye,” He Jingyao interrupted her, his smile could even be described as gentle, “Whether you will harm me or not, does it matter? Our relationship is merely a business collaboration, and we do not meet often, so I am not concerned about your special traits.”
Ye Shutong’s smile froze abruptly.
