“Leaving so soon? How about I send you guys off?”


  “No, there’s no need to do so. Youlin, it’s best to stay here and take care of Tingfeng. We could leave on our own.”


  “But…”


  Zhao Youlin wanted to continue. Su Ruixin immediately cast a glance at Xia Zhetao who was standing at the side.

  Just as Xia Zhetao was looking for an excuse to flee, he got the hint from Su Ruixin’s gaze. He quickly went up to Zhao Youlin and volunteered himself, “Ms. Zhao, it’s best for you to stay here and take care of the president. I could send them off.”


  “Indeed, Secretary Xia could send us off. Youlin, there’s no need to trouble you.”


  “Alright, then. Madam Mu and Mr. Mu, pray for a safe trip.” Having watched enough of the good show, Zhao Youlin did not make them stay. She smiled faintly and bade farewell to Su Ruixin and the rest.

  Looking at Su Ruixin’s fading silhouette as she fled, Zhao Youlin seemed to have thought of something. She turned her head around and looked at Mu Tingfeng. Her gaze turned strange.

  Mu Tingfeng was concentrating on dealing with the nurse who was bandaging his wound clumsily. Suddenly, he felt someone was staring at him.

  He instinctively looked up and met Zhao Youlin’s eyes with a hint of a smile. He was a little stunned. He asked faintly, “What’s the matter?”


  Zhao Youlin shook her head. She did not answer him and walked up to his bed.

  The nurse was clearly a novice. While she could apply the medicine decently, she bandaged his wound in a flurry of motions. She had not finished bandaging his wound even after taking a long time.

  This was especially so from the moment she came close to Mu Tingfeng. He had been exuding his coldness, coupled with his look that carried a murderous intent, it no longer mattered even if he was good-looking, the nurse was already so scared of him that her entire body was trembling. She even had no idea where to place her hands.

  In the end, Zhao Youlin could not bear to watch this anymore. She took the unused bandages and heaved a sigh. She said, “Let me do the rest. You may go out first.”


  “B-But… But…”


  Before the nurse finished speaking, Mu Tingfeng had already blurted out the words impatiently, “Get out.”


  The young lady almost wanted to burst into tears. She apologized to them and at the same time, she bowed at Zhao Youlin. She fled away from the ward like escaping from a disaster.

  Zhao Youlin did not know if she should laugh or cry. Looking at the man who did not know how to treat a woman, she really wondered why so many ladies would fall for him.

  “Couldn’t you speak more politely? Look, you scared the young lady until she nearly cried,” Zhao Youlin heaved a sigh. She held the bandage and leaned it close to Mu Tingfeng’s arm. She grumbled in a low voice.

  “Do you wish me to be as tolerant of every young lady as I am of you?”


  Zhao Youlin froze. She looked up and stared at Mu Tingfeng. She raised one of her eyebrows and said, “Are you tolerant of me? Why couldn’t I feel it at all?”


  Mu Tingfeng did not answer her. He merely fixated his gaze at her with amusement.

  This was the least that Zhao Youlin could bear to watch. She avoided Mu Tingfeng’s eyes, lowered her head and pretended to look serious as she bandaged his wound.

  Undeniably, a trace of glee sprouted from her heart upon hearing Mu Tingfeng’s words. After all, no woman on Earth would want her man to treat other women gently and with a smile on their face.

  Possessiveness was a trait that existed in men and women alike.

  Zhao Youlin had helped to handle Mu Tingfeng’s wound previously. She certainly was very skillful with her bandaging technique.

  In just a moment, the bandage that had bothered the nurse for half of the day was neatly wrapped around Mu Tingfeng’s arm.

  “Done!” Zhao Youlin clapped her hand. She turned around and was about to leave. Just then, she felt the grip around her wrist tightening.

  At the same time, a strong force hit her. She inevitably lost her balance and her entire body fell backward onto the bed.

  A banging sound was heard. Zhao Youlin was padded by human flesh. She naturally did not feel any pain. She wanted to get up in a flurry of motion, only to realize her wrist was gripped tightly and she could not move around.

  “Mu Tingfeng, darn you! Your hand! Do you want to be sent for emergency treatment once again?!” Zhao Youlin’s expression darkened. She looked up and glared at the certain one viciously, who was lying on the bed with an injury that was clearly not as serious as it was.

  “Are you worried about me?” Mu Tingfeng ignored Zhao Youlin’s anger that appeared in her eyes. He leaned closer to meet Zhao Youlin’s eyes. His tone carried a trace of obvious joy.

  Zhao Youlin drew in a deep breath. Looking at Mu Tingfeng’s annoyingly handsome face, she was so angry that she let out a bark of laughter as she said, “President Mu, don’t get me wrong. What does your life and death have anything to do with me? Even if you die in this ward today, it has nothing to do with me at all. However, President Mu, if you want to die, could you please do it after I leave the ward? Otherwise, I might end up being accused of killing the president of Mu Feng Group because my love for him has turned into hatred.”


  Mu Tingfeng was stunned. He knew that this time, Zhao Youlin was truly in a fit of rage. He said innocently, “I’ve avoided it.”


  Right after he spoke, Zhao Youlin glared at him.

  “Alright, I was wrong.” President Mu who was notable for his coolness, good looks and dominance had knelt before Zhao Youlin humbly under her glare and admitted his mistakes obediently.

  If the entertainment media and women who adored him were to know about this, all of them would have been deeply disappointed.

  Mu Tingfeng’s willingness to soften up caused Zhao Youlin’s anger to slightly subside. However, she still scorned Mu Tingfeng, “Let go of me, I want to get up!”


  “Wait.” This time, Mu Tingfeng did not give in to her. He looked into Zhao Youlin’s eyes and said in a low voice, “You have to answer the question that I’ve asked you.”


  “Question that you’ve asked me?” Zhao Youlin froze. “Do you mean the question about if I wish you to treat other young ladies the same way you treat me?”


  Mu Tingfeng did not say anything. Zhao Youlin assumed his silence was consent. She answered impatiently, “No, no, no! Is that okay? Now, let go of me, I want to get up!”


  Zhao Youlin supported herself and wanted to get up from Mu Tingfeng’s body. However, Mu Tingfeng exerted force again. Zhao Youlin was caught off guard. Once again, her head was buried into Mu Tingfeng’s arm and she nearly broke the bridge of her nose.

  “Mu! Ting! Feng!” Zhao Youlin rubbed the bridge of her sore nose. The way she looked at Mu Tingfeng like she wanted to devour him alive.

  “Not this.”


  “What is it?”


  “Not this question. It’s the question before this.”


  Zhao Youlin was angry, “Darn it! If I’m not answering your question, why the heck did you respond to me just now?!”


  Mu Tingfeng furrowed his eyebrows and said solemnly, “Don’t simply use foul language at me. Also… I didn’t say anything at all. It’s you who says it.”


  Zhao Youlin replied to him, “Indeed, you didn’t say anything just now. But, you didn’t deny it as well!

  “Darn you, rascal! You are clearly doing it on purpose. Don’t go thinking that I couldn’t see that hidden smile just because you are stoic-faced!

  “I told you, I’m only answering one of your questions. But, it turns out I have to answer one after another, you cunning businessman!”


  Mu Tingfeng looked calm while Zhao Youlin was exploding. He said with a smile, “Answer my question and I’ll let you go.”


  Zhao Youlin thought to herself, ‘So, what he meant was, if I don’t answer him, he wouldn’t let go of me, right? Hehe… But, about the question before this… Hmm…’
