C107 Don't Touch Me You Bad Guy!
Dean Chen thought to himself, the young girl in front of him was practically raised under his watchful eye. She was doted on by Ye Mingyuan from a young age. As her uncle figure, he couldn't bear to see her endure hardships here.
Seeing Ye Yuvyuv shake her head, her big eyes blinking rapidly, she pursed her lips before suddenly looking up with determination. "Uncle Chen, I want to intern in the forensic department."
Her words surprised both Dean Chen and the usually indifferent Huo Lingxiao. But that wasn't all—Ye Yuvyuv smiled mischievously at Huo Lingxiao, adding a hint of threat, "If I'm not allowed to go to the forensic department, I won't go anywhere. I'll just head back home."
She finished with a defiant glance at Huo Lingxiao. Huo Lingxiao narrowed his eyes, observing the little fox in front of him playing hard to get. He raised an eyebrow and suddenly smiled, "Alright, as you wish."
Ye Yuvyuv was speechless. This wasn't the outcome she wanted. Why wasn't he reacting as expected? Wasn't he supposed to oppose her, get angry, and drag her away from the military hospital? That way, she could avoid the grueling training Huo Lingxiao put her through in her past life.
But what was happening now? Huo Lingxiao actually agreed to her offhand request. This madman.
Ye Yuvyuv panicked for a moment. This wasn't the result she wanted. Who really wants to intern as a forensic scientist? She imagined the room full of cadavers, her delicate self facing them daily, using electric saws and such to dissect bodies. The more she thought about it, the more her scalp tingled, and cold sweat trickled down her back.
Dean Chen was already dumbfounded, watching the two of them, completely at a loss for words. In the end, Ye Yuvyuv had dug her own grave, with Huo Lingxiao arranging for her to intern in the military hospital's forensic department. Moreover, he officially processed her military doctor credentials.
At just eighteen, Yuvyuv became the first female military doctor at the hospital, officially recognized as an officer. Despite being an intern, her position was secured thanks to Sixth Master Huo's influence, ensuring she received a formal appointment.
This meant Yuvyuv was set for a lifelong career at the military hospital. Leaving wasn't a simple decision she could make on her own; as an enlisted officer, any resignation required military approval.
In a quiet hospital corridor, Yuvyuv fiercely grabbed the collar of a tall man, her eyes blazing with anger. "Huo, are you trying to drive me insane?"
She was stunningly beautiful, with a captivating allure that was only intensified by her anger. Even in her fury, she exuded a mesmerizing charm.
Huo Lingxiao looked at her with a subtle smile. Despite her outburst, he maintained his composed, regal demeanor. His long, elegant fingers brushed against Yuvyuv's flushed cheek, his tone teasing yet affectionate. "You’re upset, but wasn’t this your idea? You’re acting like an ungrateful little fox."
Yuvyuv, seething with anger, slapped his hand away. "Don't touch me! You're heartless and cold-blooded."
Huo Lingxiao's handsome face darkened slightly. "Oh, so you think I'm heartless and cold-blooded?"
"Isn't that true? I'm just a young woman, and you had the nerve to leave me here. Not only that, you want to throw me into the forensic department where they deal with death every day. If that's not heartless, then what is?"
Yuvyuv bravely stuck her neck out, glaring at Huo Lingxiao with wide eyes, as if wishing her gaze could pierce him.
Not far away, Adjutant Chen stood by, his eyelid twitching at Yuvyuv's bold words. Inwardly, he kept thinking, "Oh dear, Miss Yuvyuv, please stop. If you anger the young master, how many lives do you think you have?"
Adjutant Chen worriedly thought that the fifth Miss of the Ye family truly feared nothing when she was in one of her moods.
"Oh, so now you're blaming me," Huo Lingxiao said, half amused, half exasperated. Suddenly, he reached out and grabbed Yuvyuv's small hand that was clutching his collar. With a smile, he said, "Since you're so aggrieved, how about I let you vent today? Go ahead, hit me."
Yuvyuv was stunned, her mouth slightly open, looking at him as if he were crazy. She tried to pull her hand back from Huo Lingxiao's grip. "What are you talking about? Let go of my hand..."
But Huo Lingxiao didn't release her. He held her small hand and slowly moved it to his face, casually asking, "Hit me here."
Yuvyuv's face flushed, and she shook her head in panic, thinking, "This lunatic, what's he trying to do?"
Huo Lingxiao raised an eyebrow in satisfaction. "Alright, then hit me here."
He moved Yuvyuv's hand to his solid chest, where a strong heartbeat pulsed beneath.
He pressed her small hand against that strong, beating heart on purpose.
Yuvyuv's hand felt as if it had been burned, and she quickly pulled away in fright. "No, let go of me."
Huo Lingxiao didn't let go, his smile becoming even more mischievous. He suddenly leaned in closer, his handsome face magnified before Yuvyuv's eyes, his voice low and enticing, "So tell me, little one, where do you want to hit me? How about I let you take out your anger on me today?"
His cool breath brushed against Yuvyuv's face, making her heart skip a beat and her cheeks flush. She quickly tried to pull her hand away, "I... I don't want to hit you anywhere. Just let me go."
Yuvyuv felt like she was about to lose her mind because of this man in front of her.
"No way. You're mad at me, and I need to cheer you up, don't I?" Huo Lingxiao said with a serious expression.
But Yuvyuv was on the verge of tears. She looked up, her voice softening, "Sixth Master, I'm sorry. I shouldn't have yelled at you. You were just looking out for me. I'm not mad anymore. Please let me go..."
"Alright!" Huo Lingxiao immediately released her as soon as she finished speaking.
Yuvyuv was momentarily stunned, then quickly became furious. That jerk, he did it on purpose. Enraged, she turned to run away. She didn't want to see him for another second.
"Where are you going, my Yuvyuv?" Huo Lingxiao took a step forward, grabbing her wrist, the pleasant scent of his cologne enveloping her.
