Huo Beichen grabbed Hua Fei's wrist and pulled her closer, a wicked smile playing on his lips: "What, trying to use your beauty to escape my suspicion?"
Hua Fei laughed and said, "What do you suspect me of?"
"Dr. Hua, this is the second time I've cornered you in the study. Are you trying to find another excuse to escape?"
Do you think you're very clever, or do you think I'm very stupid?
"I don't understand what you're talking about," Hua Fei said innocently. "I just wanted to clean your study, how could you doubt me?"
"Instead of suspecting me of stealing your book, suspect me of trying to steal your heart."
She reached out a hand and, unexpectedly, pressed it against his chest.
Playing with fire.
However, Huo Beichen felt that his body was gradually slipping out of his control.
Hua Fei tiptoed, her soft red lips drawing ever closer to his, her gentle, warm breath like a spring breeze caressing his face…
It stirred up a deep itch in his heart.
He should have refused; he never got involved with women of unknown origin. Yet, she possessed a strange allure that drew him in, compelling him to explore her further…
He allowed her to keep getting closer.
A soft touch brushed against the corner of his mouth.
Suddenly, everything went black before his eyes.
Hua Fei supported him from behind, and his body immediately pressed heavily against her hands.
That's really heavy!
She struggled to help him onto the sofa and pulled out the two silver needles from his vest.
Then, they inserted two needles into his temples.
This way, he can get a good night's sleep without disturbing her.
However, when she reopened the article on her computer, she found large blank sections at the bottom.
That bastard!
They actually plotted to deceive her!
In that case, what she's looking for must not be on the computer!
She sighed in frustration; after waiting so long, it was all for nothing.
She looked at the man sleeping on the sofa, her gaze complex and resentful.
He's always been clever and cunning, hasn't he?
If you want anything from him, you'll have to be smarter and more cunning than him!
She had no choice!
We can only continue to deal with him!
Hua Fei walked out of the study and ran into the butler, who was walking towards her with a puzzled look on his face. "Dr. Hua..."
Before he could finish his question, Hua Fei answered, "President Huo said he had insomnia last night, so I gave him two acupuncture treatments, and he's already asleep in the study."
After saying that, she calmly went downstairs and left.
"That's what she said?" Huo Beichen woke up the next day and listened to the butler's retelling, then fell into deep thought.
If it weren't for those two injections from her, he wasn't sure he could have controlled himself last night... He felt a strange sense of loss...
She got close to him, just to deceive him; when it came to the crucial moment, she still gave him two injections.
"Mr. Huo, is everything alright?" the butler asked.
Huo Beichen paused slightly, "Dr. Hua's medical skills are excellent, and I slept very well last night."
After saying that, he waved his hand, the butler nodded, and left reassured.
Huo Beichen went to the computer and turned on the tracking software that had been installed on it beforehand.
It can reveal traces of computer usage.
Sure enough, she searched for all relevant information about "child" and "doctor".
But what exactly is she looking for?
Just then, Huo Beichen's phone rang; it was his assistant calling.
"Mr. Huo, Dr. Hua's credentials have been verified."
“The person named ‘Hua Fei’ on the document has a clear and traceable resume from birth to the present.”
Huo Beichen frowned in confusion, "Okay."
He put down the phone and vaguely heard the sound of a plate breaking from the first floor.
"Miss Jiang, are you alright? Did you hurt your hand?" the nanny asked worriedly, while hurriedly tidying up the floor.
In the kitchen, Jiang Xiaowei glared at Hua Fei with hostility.
Hua Fei looked completely innocent: "Miss Jiang, I just wanted to make some soup, you can't be serious, can you?"
"I have no problem with you making soup, but I won't allow you to make soup for my fiancé," Jiang Xiaowei scolded.
Hua Fei shrugged dismissively: "President Huo is my patient now. I'm the one making soup for my patient, and it's a medicinal soup!"
Jiang Xiaowei retorted firmly, "Don't try to sell me your green tea!"
"What's going on?" Huo Beichen's voice suddenly rang out as he stepped into the kitchen.
The nanny and the housekeeper immediately took a step back, neither daring to say another word.
Jiang Xiaowei was also annoyed with Huo Beichen, her tone very angry: "Brother Beichen, what illness do you have that she needs to treat? How come I didn't know?"
Hua Fei also glanced at Huo Beichen.
He is not sick.
She's just making this up.
However, she bet that Huo Beichen would agree, because she held a secret that he wanted to explore.
He wouldn't send her away now.
“I have been having trouble sleeping lately,” Huo Beichen nodded, “and Dr. Hua prescribed me some medicine.”
Jiang Xiaowei's cheeks flushed red, she was so angry she felt like she was going to vomit blood. After a moment, she continued to question, "Then you also asked her to make soup for you?"
Huo Beichen looked at Hua Fei and said, "Dr. Hua, you can leave the housekeeper to make the soup and decoction. You don't need to worry about it."
A charming smile appeared on Hua Fei's face, and her voice was as soft as water: "I'm very happy to be able to make soup for you."
"You..." Jiang Xiaowei's anger surged, and she lost her temper, rushing forward and slapping Hua Fei across the face.
However, before her hand could even touch Hua Fei's face, Hua Fei blocked her arm.
“Miss Jiang, this behavior is not quite in line with your status.” Hua Fei pushed Jiang Xiaowei back several steps with a forceful movement.
Hua Fei's hands are often used to move patients and herbs, so her strength is naturally incomparable to that of a pampered young lady like Jiang Xiaowei.
Adding to her anger, Jiang Xiaowei was also ridiculed by Hua Fei.
"Beichen, look at the good doctor you found! How dare he ride on the mistress's neck!" Jiang Xiaowei said fiercely, and stormed out of the kitchen.
Huo Beichen glanced at the butler, who understood and immediately left with the nanny.
Only Huo Beichen and Hua Fei remained in the kitchen.
Hua Fei remained calm and unperturbed, letting out a soft sigh: "Ah, is Miss Jiang really the mistress of the house?"
Huo Beichen's face darkened: "Dr. Hua, you seem to have overstepped your bounds."
"Really?" Hua Fei shrugged. "Am I wrong? She's been a fiancée for three years, and she's still a fiancée. I'm afraid her highest status in this house is still that of a fiancée."
She gave Huo Beichen a meaningful look: "Some people say that if a man truly loves a woman, he will marry her the day after he meets her."
“That’s not what I meant,” Huo Beichen glanced at the soup ladle in her hand, “Can you explain this pot of soup?”
“It’s very simple,” Hua Fei said. “What I did is something any woman would do for the one she loves.”
"The one you love?" Huo Beichen raised an eyebrow.
“That’s right.” A rare hint of shyness appeared on Hua Fei’s face. “President Huo is handsome and capable. I’ve fallen for you.”
Huo Beichen was stunned for a moment, and a familiar woman's face involuntarily surfaced in his mind.
