His strong physique was unexpectedly revealed to her.
Her gaze unconsciously shifted away.
My mind keeps wandering to inappropriate thoughts.
"Aren't you going to start?" Huo Beichen turned his head, his dark, bright eyes fixed on her.
It was as if he could see right through what she was thinking.
Her face flushed with guilt, but thankfully, she could use the act of arranging health products to cover up her panic.
Smoke gradually swirled around.
She held a burning moxa stick and circled it around the major acupoints on his back.
"Shouldn't we press the acupoints first?" he asked.
"You recharged one million, so you're a VIP customer. Your wellness treatment process is different from other customers." She lied without batting an eye.
She was unwilling to have any form of physical contact with him.
“What does the most complete process look like?” he then asked.
"Acupressure, fumigation, medicinal bath..." she explained the procedure.
She then added, "These kinds of recharge cards are a bit expensive, but I don't mind if Mr. Huo gets one."
"How much does it cost?" Huo Beichen asked.
"Fifty million." This was the question Sheng Nanyin had been waiting for, hoping to refute him with a single sentence.
As expected, Huo Beichen remained silent.
Sheng Nanyin pretended to tinker for a while, and then her health regimen for the day came to an end.
She threw his shirt, which he had taken off, at him. "Mr. Huo, have a safe journey."
Huo Beichen slowly sat up and slowly put on his clothes.
"How long does it take for the most expensive treatment card you mentioned to be used for one session?" he asked.
"Two hours," she replied casually.
Huo Beichen thought for a moment, "Does a customer who applies for this kind of card only get one a year?"
Sheng Nanyin opened her beautiful eyes wide: "I work 8 hours a day, and I have about 4 clients like this."
Who do you think you are?
Of course, she made all of this up.
If she could really make that much money, would she still worry about losing custody of Zeze in court?!
“Oh,” Huo Beichen replied calmly, “I’ll get four of these cards, and from now on, all your working hours will belong to me.”
Sheng Nanyin's beautiful eyes widened even more, and her lips parted slightly in surprise.
"Are you...are you alright? Do you have too much money to burn?" Because of her surprise, she was less polite in her speech.
"What, not going to get a card?" He stood up and walked in front of her, completely enveloping her delicate figure in his shadow.
Sheng Nanyin wondered, was he bad at math, or had he just become addicted to being the top-ranked person on the leaderboard?
"Do I need to go to the front desk to handle this?" He turned around, ready to leave.
“No, no need…” she grabbed his arm. “I’m the only one in the entire clinic who can issue this kind of health care card.”
"Since you really want to do it, I'll give you a discount."
"What discount?" Huo Beichen raised an eyebrow.
“One fold,” Sheng Nanyin replied.
A large sum of money indeed arrived in the account.
Sheng Nanyin wanted to cry but had no tears.
“Starting tomorrow, you’ll stay home and wait around the clock. I need to do some health maintenance, but the timing is uncertain.” His voice rang in her ear, like a spell.
Starting the next day, Sheng Nanyin had to stay home with pay.
"Mom, is something bothering you?" A few days later, Zeze noticed something was wrong.
"I'm fine," Sheng Nanyin quickly replied.
At the same time, she reflected on herself, wondering if she had been wearing her emotions on her sleeve.
“Actually, I can help you,” Zeze continued.
Sheng Nanyin was slightly taken aback, but upon reflection, she realized that this was indeed the case.
Zeze can go out every day, so it's not difficult for her to contact Sun Xiaowei.
But she immediately abandoned the idea and smiled slightly at Zeze: "Adult matters should be resolved by adults."
Zeze nodded, and being sensible, didn't ask any more questions.
School.
During lunch break, Zeze found the life teacher.
"Teacher, can I call my mom?" He looked so innocent and pleading with his big eyes that it was impossible to refuse.
The dormitory supervisor handed him her phone, looking at it with a smile.
"Teacher, it seems like some classmates over there need your help. I'll return your phone to you after I finish the call," Zeze said obediently.
“It’s okay,” the dormitory teacher would shake her head with a smile. “There’s another teacher over there. You can make a call. The teacher is worried that you might need help.”
Zeze had no choice but to dial the phone: "Mom..."
Yun Suiwan was stunned on the other end of the phone. When did she pick up a son by chance?
"Have you washed my baseball uniform? You should wash my baseball cap too..."
Yun Suiwan immediately recognized Zeze's voice.
She was about to say that he had dialed the wrong number when Zeze continued, "Don't stay home all the time. You must come to watch my baseball game next time. If you don't have a car, I can call one for you."
"Okay, it's settled then. Anyway, home isn't far from school, so you absolutely can't back out. Bye-bye."
After saying that, Zeze hung up the phone.
Yun Suiwan had some doubts.
She immediately called Sheng Nanyin, but the call could not be connected.
At this moment, Xiao Wu walked in from outside, looking frustrated: "It's really strange, Dr. Sheng seems to have vanished into thin air, we can't find him anywhere."
Sheng Nanyin hasn't come to give Grandpa Lu his health treatment for several days.
Yun Suiwan asked Xiao Wu to go look for her, but Xiao Wu searched for several days without success.
As Yun Suiwan listened to Xiao Wu's report, she suddenly understood something.
"Don't bother looking for Sheng Nanyin. Can you follow Huo Beichen?" Yun Suiwan asked.
“Absolutely no problem.” Xiao Wu’s eyes lit up.
He and Huo Beichen had never gotten along, so sending him to pick a fight with Huo Beichen was the perfect idea.
...
"Ding-dong." The doorbell rang.
Sheng Nanyin no longer felt any surprise.
Occasionally, a delivery person will come to the door, but they will just drop off the food and leave.
However, when the door was opened this time, two deliverymen were standing outside.
After putting the items down, one of the deliverymen left.
The other one walked inside, taking off her hat and mask to reveal her beautiful long hair.
"Miss Yun!" Sheng Nanyin exclaimed with delight.
The person who arrived was none other than Yun Suiwan, disguised as a food deliveryman.
“Zeze called me,” Yun Suiwan explained.
Zeze said, "Stay home every day and don't go out. If you can't go out, I'll call you a car..."
Based on this information, Yun Suiwan deduced that Sheng Nanyin was unable to leave the house.
If anyone would do this, it would definitely be Huo Beichen.
Therefore, Yun Suiwan had Xiao Wu follow Huo Beichen for several days and finally discovered some clues.
"My assistant, who was waiting downstairs, ordered takeout half an hour ago, so I took this opportunity to come." Yun Suiwan took off her deliveryman uniform.
Sheng Nanyin admired her so much; she was simply a genius.
No wonder Zeze thought of asking her for help.
"Don't rush to praise me," Yun Suiwan smiled slightly, "tell me what happened first?"
Sheng Nanyin recounted what had happened.
After saying that, she pursed her lips in annoyance: "I'm so stupid, I shouldn't have given him the discount, otherwise he wouldn't have been able to get the card."
Yun Suiwan smiled and said, "No matter how high your price is, he can still get the card processed."
