"Aha!?"

Yu Mian was completely dumbfounded.

Is she and Shen Junzhi in a relationship where they can look at each other's medical records?

Something seems off.

Yu Mian instinctively wanted to refuse, "Dean, this is your privacy, I think I'll pass."

The hand that was about to push away was stopped halfway by Shen Junzhi, whose voice, though cold, held a hidden determination:

"You can see it if I tell you to."

It was done in a rather domineering manner.

Okay.

Yu Mian carefully took it in her hand and examined it closely.

The medical record clearly stated that Shen Junzhi occasionally experienced sleepwalking symptoms due to excessive research pressure.

He was unaware of anything that happened during his sleepwalking.

They might not even know what happened?

Therefore, Shen Junzhi's appearance in her bedroom at that time must have been due to sleepwalking.

He didn't lie to her.

This is a researcher who unfortunately fell ill while dedicating himself to the scientific research efforts of the empire.

She had been speculating that he might have some ulterior motive, but it turned out he was simply sick.

Yu Mian's heart softened instantly.

It's to the point where I feel like slapping myself as soon as I get out of bed.

"I'm sorry, Dean Shen. I misunderstood at first and overthought things. Please don't mind."

Before he could finish speaking, Shen Junzhi's voice rang out.

"It's okay, it's not your fault."

"In the end, it's still my fault."

"Given the situation that night, it's normal for you to be wary."

"But don't worry, this won't happen again."

Why won't it happen again?

A question mark flashed through Yu Mian's mind.

Shen Junzhi raised his hand at just the right moment, wanting to take the medical record from Yu Mian's hand.

On that slender wrist, as bright as the moon, was an extremely clear circular mark.

Yu Mian's eyes widened instantly. How could Shen Junzhi, who was the undisputed leader of the entire protection base and whom no one dared to provoke, possibly get hurt?

How could anyone possibly dare to harm Shen Junzhi?

"Dean Shen, what's wrong...?"

Shen Junzhi seemed to only then realize that the wound on his hand had been exposed, and hurriedly raised his hand to cover it:

"It's nothing, I just bumped into something by accident."

"It will be fine soon."

How could an injury look like this?

Yu Mian's eyes were filled with undisguised disbelief.

She looked up at Shen Junzhi with her amber eyes, giving him a look that said, "You better not think I'm a fool."

"All right."

With a deep sigh, he directly admitted it.

"When I suddenly appeared in your bedroom last time, I realized that my sleepwalking had become this severe."

"It wasn't like this before."

“Not only are you worried, but I am even more worried than you about committing some unforgivable crime.”

"So I can only..."

Shen Junzhi didn't say anything more, his gaze fell on his wrist, and he gave a slight bitter smile.

Yu Mian understood instantly.

To prevent any further accidents, Shen Junzhi simply tied himself up before going to sleep at night.

This way, even if sleepwalking recurs, there's no fear of making any irreparable mistakes.

It's just that he himself needs to suffer a bit.

Really!

In that instant, all the bad impressions Yu Mian had of Shen Junzhi vanished, replaced by a strange sense of melancholy and heartache.

Thanks to their excellent hearing, the Golden Lion Emperor Xingyan and the Black Panther Huo Shicheng, who had overheard the conversation, were completely enraged.

He roared angrily at Shen Junzhi from a distance.

"Shen Junzhi, have you no shame?!"

"You just casually mention faking illness, don't you!"

"Whether you're sick or not is none of your business, isn't it?"

For someone as prestigious as the director of a research institute, forging a medical record is as simple as printing with one hand and stamping with the other.

The seal of the Imperial Research Institute is still in Shen Junzhi's hands.

How could a top-tier 3S-class male beast, strong enough to kill ten bulls in one blow, possibly get sick?

They even brought up something as absurd as sleepwalking.

If Yu Mian hadn't been there, the Golden Lion would have loved to rush up and bite him.

That's outrageous!

That's absolutely outrageous!

Unfortunately, Yu Mian was completely unaware of this.

After reviewing the medical records, Shen Junzhi's image in her mind has completely transformed into that of a tragic yet strong figure who suffers from sleepwalking but works hard and dedicates himself wholeheartedly to scientific research.

Shen Junzhi raised his eyes, his gaze sweeping over the roaring Di Xingyan and Huo Shicheng before finally settling on Yu Mianshi with a hint of worry in his eyes.

"The empire is currently going through a turbulent period. If my sleepwalking disorder were to be exposed, it would likely cause unrest and chaos."

"Could you please keep this a secret for me?"

"I trust you and only decided to let you see the medical records after careful consideration."

Upon hearing Shen Junzhi's words, Yu Mian instantly felt a heavy burden on her shoulders.

She nodded hastily, her little face extremely serious:

"Don't worry, I will keep this secret and will never let it out."

"If I break this oath, may I be struck by lightning..."

Before he could finish speaking, Shen Junzhi raised his hand to cover his mouth.

The man's well-defined hand covered the pretty little woman's face, easily obscuring most of it.

What was even more deadly was that the skin under his hands was as soft as tofu, and Shen Junzhi's heart pounded uncontrollably twice.

After chuckling twice, he offered his advice:

"Don't make such a vicious oath."
