Chapter 7 Doctor Huo

Ye Xuan screamed, and the man frowned, spraying water out of his mouth when he saw her wearing a cute bunny pajama, her two "bunny ears" perfectly aligned with her chest mounds. Plus, her fair, delicate skin and the cotton material of her pajamas made them slightly translucent in the light.

Huo Jianchen's gaze couldn't help but slide downward, only to find the area empty. After Ye Xuan screamed and followed his gaze to her chest, she immediately turned around, facing away from him.

"You don't look."

Oh no, he almost forgot that there was a wife who had just obtained the marriage certificate with him in the house. And this wife, wearing bunny pajamas, had two "bunny heads" right on those two peaks, combined with her fair skin, which was seemingly delicate and vulnerable. The pajamas were made of cotton, and in the light, they seemed somewhat transparent.

Huo Jianchen calmly finished his water and put the cup back in place with a heavy thud. Then he brushed past her.

Finally, he stood coldly, not far from her. "Don't use such low means to seduce me in the future. It's only suitable for seducing low-class people."

Bang—

The sound of the door closing shattered Ye Xuan's heart. Her face turned red, and her head buzzed.

What did this person just say? Seduce him? Seduce him? Who knows what he was doing up in the kitchen in the middle of the night?

She was miserable. Not only was she seen naked, but she was also scolded so shamelessly. Who was taking advantage of whom here?

Ye Xuan was so angry that she almost went to smash Huo Jianchen's door, but she stopped halfway through the motion. This guy not only had a strange personality but was also so narcissistic. If she knocked on his door, he might even think she wanted to sleep with him.

Forget it; she had seen enough, and she couldn't return the favor. Images of his good figure involuntarily popped into her mind, and she almost drooled. Ye Xuan slapped her forehead. What nonsense was she thinking?

After quickly drinking some water in the kitchen, she returned to her room and went to sleep.

At half past five in the morning, her alarm clock woke her up directly. She panicked, climbed out of bed drowsily, and bumped her forehead against the door.

Every day at home, she got up early to make breakfast for the whole family. Her parents had to manage the store, and her younger brother had to go to work. Originally, it was her sister who did it, but since her sister got married, it fell to her.

Ye Xuan bumped her head, and she became more awake. Looking at the unfamiliar room, she remembered that she had moved out.

At this time, her stomach growled. Originally, she wanted to sleep in a bit longer, but she was scared to eat too much because she was scared by the magnificent mansion yesterday. There was no dry food here, and now her stomach was singing the Empty City Stratagem.

No, she couldn't starve herself. It was hard for her to escape from the oppressive atmosphere of her home. Now, she was living with Huo Jianchen alone, and she could still manage her time freely.

With a hungry stomach, she went out. They had just moved here yesterday, and she had seen that the kitchen was clean. So, for the first time in her new home, she decided to buy breakfast from outside.

She didn't know what Huo Jianchen liked to eat. She thought for a moment and picked a few items that everyone was used to eating.

So, she bought two bowls of lotus leaf congee and ordered a serving of fried liver, as well as soybean juice and fried dough sticks. This was the most luxurious breakfast she had ever eaten. At home, it was usually just plain congee with some pickles and a few pieces of flatbread, costing only a few cents.

She thought that since Huo Jianchen was a high-ranking executive, he naturally couldn't eat too poorly. But she also couldn't afford to treat him to better food.

When she returned home with breakfast, she found that Huo Jianchen was already up. Thinking of what happened last night, her ears felt hot. But she was living in someone else's house rent-free, so she pretended as if nothing had happened.

With a smile plastered on her face, she said, "You're up. Let's have breakfast together. I bought a meal for you, especially from outside. After eating, I'll go to work."

Huo Jianchen glanced at the food she bought, his voice cold and distant. "I don't eat Chinese food. I'll be going to the gym at nine, so for breakfast, I need something with enough protein and calories for exercise. It also needs to be nutritious. What you bought isn't suitable for me. Don't eat this in the future. It's heavy on oil, salt, and starch. It'll make you fat."

But Huo Jianchen thought that since he had seen her body last night, except for a few areas that seemed to have grown a bit, there didn't seem to be much fat in other areas.

However, Huo Jianchen thought that since he had already seen her body yesterday, except for a few areas that seemed to have grown a bit, there didn't seem to be much fat in other areas.

Ye Xuan initially wanted to please him, thinking that since they were going to be roommates in the future, they should leave a good impression on each other at the beginning. But she didn't expect her kindness to backfire.

Feeling somewhat aggrieved, she said, "I don't exercise, and besides, where am I supposed to find nutritious food for you? Do you want me to cook breakfast for you? There's nothing in the kitchen, and you didn't tell me beforehand."

Huo Jianchen looked at her as if she were a strange creature. "I don't need you to cook. I usually have a nutritionist prepare my meals. And as for your cooking—"

He looked at her with a skeptical gaze, and Ye Xuan felt like she was about to be driven crazy by him after less than a day of interaction.

"My cooking is very good, even better than a five-star chef's."

She protested, feeling like she had to save face and boast a bit. Huo Jianchen snorted derisively. "Enjoy your meal, Chef." With that, he walked away without looking back.

Ye Xuan looked at the breakfast on the table and ate revengefully. By the time she finished buying breakfast and eating, it was almost 8 o'clock.

At this time, her phone rang. It was from Huo's grandmother.

"Hello, Axuan, how did it go with Jianchen last night?"

"What do you mean, how did it go?"

She didn't understand what she meant, and Huo's grandmother became anxious. "I mean, did you two sleep together last night?"

Ye Xuan finally understood, and her face turned red instantly.

"Grandma, what are you saying? Jianchen is very gentlemanly and didn't touch me. We slept in separate rooms."

Ye Xuan was quite happy, but Huo's grandmother became frantic.

"Really? You two already got married, but you haven't slept together yet? Axuan, my grandson is a blockhead. If you don't take the initiative, he won't act. Tell me, are you unwilling? It's okay if you're unwilling. I've already prepared 500GB of adult movies here. During this time, just stay at home and watch some movies. Whatever you want to eat, I'll have someone deliver it to you."

Ye Xuan's face turned as red as a pig's liver. If Huo's grandmother were in front of her now, she would probably find a hole to crawl into.

Seeing that it was almost time for work, she hurriedly said, "Grandma, I'll talk to you later. I'm going to work."

She hung up the phone, and Huo's grandmother said "hello" to the phone several times. Ye Xuan left the house and hailed a taxi.

This was her most luxurious experience yet. Yangming Mountain Villa was not in the city center, so she had to take a taxi to avoid being late. She had forgotten to ride her electric bike out of the flower shop. Just in these two days, her expenses had skyrocketed. Twenty for breakfast, forty for the taxi, which was equivalent to her weekly expenses.

Fortunately, she had saved half of her salary this time. Plus, she didn't have to pay rent in the future, she could have lunch in the hospital cafeteria, Huo Jianchen said he had paid a year's worth of utilities and property management fees, and she didn't have to worry about gas bills or anything else.

Besides, he also ate at the company, and he only occasionally came back at night. If they divorced after three months, he could let her stay until she found a place to live.

Huo Jianchen was much more generous than her brother-in-law to her sister and her parents. Since she started earning money, she felt like her family members were like vampires, but strangers were much kinder to her.

She hurried to the hospital to clock in. She was only one minute away from losing this month's perfect attendance award, worth two hundred yuan. For her, who had to split every yuan in half, two hundred yuan was like a huge sum of money.

She hurried to the hospital to clock in, just one minute away from losing this month's perfect attendance award, worth two hundred yuan. For her, who had to split every yuan in half, two hundred yuan was like a huge sum of money. If she lost it, she wouldn't be able to sleep for the entire month.

"Ye Xuan, go check on the patient in Room 302."

She had just changed her clothes and sat down at the nurse's station when the head nurse called her.

"Oh, I'm on my way."

She rushed out, not noticing her colleagues behind her, stifling their laughter.

"Look at how the head nurse is bossing people around again. But only Ye Xuan is suitable for this kind of work. Every year, her year-end bonus is several hundred yuan more than ours. And she's been full-time for two years."

"Why envy her? Your family isn't short on money. Who knows, if you come here for a rotation, you might end up sitting in an air-conditioned office. She's just a workhorse. I heard her younger brother is getting married, and her family is asking her to contribute to the dowry."

"Really? That's so pitiful. I'll let her take care of any dirty or tiring work in the future, so she can show off and leave a good impression on the leaders."

Several gossiping nurses covered their mouths and laughed. Watching Ye Xuan bustle about, no one sympathized with her; they all saw her as a joke.

She arrived at Room 302, where the patient inside was throwing a tantrum. The food on the makeshift table by the bed was swept onto the floor.

"What kind of hospital are you running here? Is this food fit for human consumption? It's worse than what you'd feed a pig."

Ye Xuan accidentally got splashed with porridge that had been swept over. Luckily, it wasn't hot, or else she would've been scalded.

"Sir, please calm down and let me know what's wrong. You can talk to me."

The patient in the bed gave her a cold glance and snorted.

"What's the use of talking to you? Get your leaders over here and see what kind of food you're giving patients in this hospital. I pay a lot of money for my hospital stay every day, and this is what you give me to eat."

Ye Xuan glanced at the food, which consisted only of porridge and plain noodles. The patient was yelling loudly, and Ye Xuan was intimidated by his fierce demeanor, taking a step back.

Then she felt a force pressing down on her shoulder.

"Mr. Fang, right? You just had surgery and can only eat light, soft foods like porridge and noodles for now. After your wounds have healed, you can eat whatever you like."

A gentle and magnetic voice came from above. Ye Xuan trembled all over as she turned her head and accidentally bumped into a pair of pitch-black eyes.

The man was wearing a white coat and had a stethoscope hanging around his neck. One hand was in his pocket, and the other pulled Ye Xuan to the side, asking in a low voice, "Are you okay?"

Ye Xuan mechanically shook her head, and the man's tall figure was reflected in her pupils, with a high bridge of the nose supporting a frameless pair of glasses. He was a gentle, humble, and handsome man.

"No, I'm fine."

Ye Xuan looked at his face and couldn't help but think of Huo Jianchen. If Huo Jianchen weren't so cold and aloof, his facial features and looks would also be excellent.

The attending physician arrived, so she quickly stepped aside.

"I'll take care of this. You can go."
