The thought of Mu Yazhe sent shivers down his spine; regardless, Meng Qingyang ensured that all his orders were in place before he left with a peaceful mind.
Zhao Rui did not understand political intricacies, but, as a doctor, he had the duty to provide care and treatment for those who paid him to do so. This was his principle, so he naturally did not tarry in carrying out the orders.
Sitting in the room for a while, the young boy eventually looked up at his mother and pouted. “Mommy, Youyou is hungry. The tummy is growling.” He rubbed his little tummy and blinked piteously at her with his sparkling, doe eyes.
Gently, she quickly asked, “What does Youyou want to eat? Mommy will buy it for you from the supermart!”
A number of 24-hour convenience stores and cake shops could be found around the hospital and just across the street. Getting food was very convenient.
“It’s so late now, though; Youyou is worried!” His eyes lit up suddenly. Clapping his palms together in an asking-for-favor form, he requested to Li Hanlin, “Principal, if it’s alright with you, please accompany my mother!”
The agent easily got the hint and nodded. Yun Shishi, meanwhile, was rather embarrassed and tried to reject, “Thank you, but it’s not necessary! Youyou, it’s so late now. Principal should be home by now, right?”
“This is no big deal! Our school principal is always passionate. Besides, you look so weak, mommy. What if you meet a bad guy on the road at this late hour? Principal Li is superb and he can protect you!”
“That’s right. It’s not late yet. I can accompany you to buy food, send you up, and then head home. There’s no trouble at all! I like Youyou and treat him like my son!”
He had just finished his statement when he sensed daggers shooting at his face from the man beside him.
Mu Yazhe lifted his eyes and cast him a cold-hearted glare; the man’s displeasure seeped through his demeanor.
He seemed to be questioning the agent, Treat him like your son?
If looks could kill, the agent would be sliced up past recognition.
The agent took out his hanky to wipe away the cold perspiration that had gathered on his forehead. Could this father-son pair be less alike? The charisma exuding from the younger one was forceful enough, while that one glance of the adult version could knock him out…
The atmosphere in the ward was rather eerie, with the three males exchanging glances.
Amid her obliviousness to the strange dynamics of the three males in the room, she gratefully expressed her gratitude to Li Hanlin, “Thank you, principal! I really can’t thank you enough for your help today! It’s so late now; let me buy you coffee!”
As they chatted and were about to walk off, she felt a tug on her arm that halted her exit to the room.
With one hand on his trousers’ belt, he leaned slightly over and slowly whispered to her ear, “Be back early, yeah?”
“Er…”
“I don’t like seeing you with other men,” he panted to her earlobe. His evil and seductive smile contained a hint of warning.
Her face went pop in an instant over his domineering and flirtatious words. Her clear and distinctive eyes glared at him, as if she had more to say.
“Who are you to stop me? Isn’t it my right to decide on who I want to be with?”
“Your little mouth can be defiant, eh?” He sounded unhappy as he lightly bit her lip flap without inhibition before Li Hanlin.
The agent stood at one side awkwardly, not knowing where to look.
His sudden action caused her face to flush even hotter. Self-consciously, she bit her lower lip and threw him a dirty look. “Don’t mess around!”
