Chapter 9 You've Misunderstood

Chu Yi's eyes went straight as he silently chanted in his heart, "Clairvoyance, activate!"

Chu Yi saw stars, but vaguely noticed that the blood that had just stopped on his hand was flowing again.

Strange, hadn't the bleeding already stopped? Why was it bleeding again?

That woman in the white lab coat, Wen Ya, didn't seem to be in a hurry, "How did you get this cut?"

Before Chu Yi had a chance to speak, Yue Yao pointed at Chu Yi's hand, her face turning pale with shock, "Wen sister, blood! He's bleeding again!"

Wen Ya glanced at him casually, as if this were an all-too-common sight for her.

Seeing Chu Yi staring intently at her chest, Wen Ya also glared back at him, "Like what you see?"

"Nice!"

Without thinking, Chu Yi blurted out his response.

By the time he came to his senses and looked up, Wen Ya was staring at him with a half-serious, half-mocking expression, "Handsome guy, do you know where you are? You've got guts."

"Sorry, couldn't help myself."

Wen Ya snorted coldly, pulled up a stool to sit in front of Chu Yi, took out the medical kit, and began to disinfect his wound with tweezers and a cotton ball.

As Wen Ya disinfected his wound, she observed him. Chu Yi's gaze never left Yue Yao, and she found this guy more and more interesting. First, he was staring at her, and now at Yue Yao; he clearly had some nefarious intentions.

Yue Yao seemed somewhat uncomfortable, but Wen Ya patted her arm to reassure her, "It's okay, Yao Yao, he's just a lecher with more desire than courage, content with just feasting his eyes—gauze."

Yue Yao was internally troubled, thinking that if the Chairman really decided to hire him, she would have to see him every day...

But, keeping a distance would suffice.

Wen Ya quickly applied the ointment and examined his wound, "This... indeed doesn't need stitching."

"Ah? It's split open, and it doesn't need stitches?"

Wen Ya rolled her eyes at him.

"Just because you can't keep your eyes to yourself, you're lucky I'm even bandaging it for you."

This comment made Chu Yi feel somewhat embarrassed; after hesitating a bit, he said, "Maybe you should stitch it up after all."

"Are you sure? I don't have any anesthetic here," Wen Ya said with a smile.

Chu Yi nodded.

At that moment, Wen Ya noticed that Chu Yi's gaze had not yet left her chest. This time, she wasn't annoyed but instead joked half-seriously, "What, can't get enough? Getting greedy, aren't you?"

"If I've already taken an inch, what's one more to make a mile? Greed is the driving force of progress, after all."

Chu Yi teased her deliberately, and this time Wen Ya let out a laugh.

Seeing her not angry anymore, Chu Yi also relaxed quite a bit.

"Some people, a pervert is a pervert, yet they find so many excuses for themselves, really speechless," Wen Ya said while carefully peeling off the gauze.

"Yao Yao, bring me the needle and thread."

That was when Yue Yao realized that her face was flushed beyond recognition.

No way? How could Wen sister suddenly let loose like this... It's so embarrassing.

"Wen sister, there are none left in the medical kit, I'll go find some new ones."

Perhaps it was because she had been squatting for too long, but when Yue Yao stood up, she wobbled and just as she shifted her body, she let out a cry and fell backwards.

Hearing the commotion, Wen Ya couldn't continue with the stitching and halfway at helping her up, but Wen Ya herself didn't have much strength, and when Yue Yao fell towards her, she couldn't support her and also started to fall backwards.

Amidst the cries of alarm, Chu Yi suddenly reached out.

Now things were getting interesting!

With a loud thud, three people fell to the ground at the same time, with two girls tumbling into Chu Yi's arms.

There was a muffled sound as he landed on his back, and the two girls lay on top of him.

And just by chance, at this moment, Chu Yi's palms happened to land right on the chests of the two girls.

Chu Yi's heart blossomed with joy, still immersed in the moment.

With a creaking sound—

The door to the infirmary opened.

"Sister Wen, do you still have the medicine I took from you last time, my 'aunt' is..."

Gu Xin walked in, clutching her lower abdomen, not expecting to witness this scene.

When Gu Xin saw clearly that the person in front of her was none other than Chu Yi, her face immediately darkened.

"It seems I've come at a bad time..."

Chu Yi quickly stood up, adjusting his collar, "Why are you here, Gu Xin? Are you not feeling well?"

Gu Xin scoffed, "This is my workplace, why can't I come here?"

At that moment, Wen Ya also got to her feet, "You two... know each other?"

Talking about Gu Xin, this stern and unapproachable female manager was someone very few male colleagues at Han Corporation dared to provoke, let alone strike up a conversation with. Wen Ya sensed something was off.

Gu Xin immediately denied, "Who would know a nasty hooligan!"

"Our Manager Gu is always a logical and strong woman, but if you don't know him, Manager Gu, how do you know he is a hooligan?"

In her mind, Gu Xin immediately recalled the incidents that had transpired with Chu Yi on the train, and her cheeks became hot.

"Caught you, didn't I? Come clean, what's your relationship?"

Wen Ya asked with a smile.

At this, both Gu Xin and Chu Yi turned their heads away, silent.

"Kid, you've got some nerve. Our Manager Gu isn't someone just anyone can get, and you still want to flirt around outside?"

Chu Yi was at a loss for words, "Ah... it's really not what you think."

"What do I think? Let me tell you, out of consideration for Gu Xin, I'll let it slide this time, but if there's a next time... I've castrated more rabbits than you can imagine."

Gu Xin hurried to calm herself down, pausing for a moment, "Sister Wen, it's not what you think; we just met on the way to the company, you're misunderstanding."

Chu Yi also felt a bit awkward and tried to change the subject, raising his bleeding hand, "Could someone take a look at my hand... it's still bleeding?"

Wen Ya then remembered she had only half-finished bandaging it.

"You're injured? How did that happen?" Gu Xin asked.

"Just a minor injury, it's nothing serious."

Yue Yao, standing to the side, didn't speak, exchanging glances with Wen Ya and merely smiled.

Wen Ya then peeled back the bandage she had just applied, preparing to take out the needle and thread to stitch him up, and in front of Gu Xin, he had to restrain himself.

But no matter how much he restrained himself, Wen Ya's chest was right in front of his eyes, and he couldn't look away even if he tried.

At that moment... a sharp pain shot through him, from his palm straight to his brain.

Wen Ya lifted her head and smiled, "Sorry about that, my hand slipped."

Before long, Chu Yi's gaze once again began to involuntarily drift towards Wen Ya's chest.

Until Gu Xin, grinding her teeth, spat out, "Haven't you had enough?"

Chu Yi quickly moved his gaze away from her and turned his attention to Gu Xin.
