My Lovely Wife is a Forensic Doctor - Chapter 81
Chapter 81 The Offence of the Nickname
“T-T-That is a… nickname. Hehe, it’s just a nickname.”
Looking at the contact name, ‘Beast’ shown on the mobile phone screen, Mu Yu explained with a nervous laugh.
“Pick up the phone.”
“Eh? I thought you haven’t been using your mobile phone after it was broken?” Mu Yu suddenly realized that something was off. “Who’s using your sim card?! Don’t tell me…” she asked, astonished.
“Pick up the phone!”
“Ok.” She then answered the phone and carefully said, “Hello?”
“Mu Yu! It’s me! Haha, are you shocked by this phone call?”
It was Wen Zeyu’s voice. It seemed that he had helped Qin Jinhuan to buy a mobile phone and had installed the SIM card in it.
Mu Yu let out a sigh of relief and immediately scolded, “Do you have nothing better to do?!”
“N-No, I have lots to do. I haven’t even eaten breakfast yet!”
“Then, you should have your breakfast now! I’m gonna hang up! ”
“Eh! Mu Yu, hang on! You are in such a bad mood! It seems that the ginseng chicken soup was made just in time to cool you down.”
Knowing that the soup was actually made for Qin Jinhuan, she was too lazy to bicker with him. She actually felt a little hungry when she heard him mention food, so she immediately said, “Bring us some breakfast when you’re on your way here.”
“I’ve already bought it, but there are too many things. I can’t carry them all. I’m in the underground parking lot now, so can you come and give me a hand?”
“Ok, I will be right down.”
After hanging up the phone, she saw that Qin Jinhuan was still staring at her. Mu Yu quickly gave a flattering smile and said, “Zeyu brought you ginseng chicken soup. I’ll pick it up for you so that you can drink it to help speed up your recovery.”
“Go, I will take care of you later.”
Qin Jinhuan lay down halfway. Watching Mu Yu’s stiff posture as she was walking out of the ward, he chuckled.
This girl, although he occasionally took advantage of her, it was actually meant as a joke, yet she called him a beast behind his back!
This ‘accusation’ was just too much.
That bastard Yi Yunzhe’s behavior should truly be called the act of a beast!
Suddenly, the image of the video only played halfway flashed in his mind. The mirth in his eyes was gone and his expression hardened at once.
Damn that Yi Yunzhe! How dare he lay his paws on his woman so arrogantly? He even dared to frame him!
They still expected him to be his old self—impulsive and impetuous? They really thought he could be easily defeated, didn’t they?
Hmph!
He had been enduring all the insults and disgrace he received for now, and it was because he wanted to pay them back once and for all. He would surely get his vengeance for all the contempt he had received from them and let them have a good taste of failure; the higher they soared, the more severely they would fall.
Especially Yi Yunzhe who had not learned his lesson from Yi Yunrui. Qin Jinhuan wouldn’t let Yi Yunzhe off the hook that easily.
Let’s just see how long his arrogance would last!
Hmph!
After a sneer, Qin Jinhuan closed his eyes.
There was no news from Grandpa after he left Yi Yunzhe’s ward yesterday. Grandpa’s next plan was already in speculation, but he couldn’t help worrying about Grandpa’s illness, which he had not yet recovered from. He knew that Grandpa was thorough in handling matters and he wasn’t afraid that something would go wrong with Grandpa’s plan. He was more worried that if Grandpa suddenly became ill, Qin Wentao and Dong Yueyun would create trouble for him. After all, Grandpa had to keep these two people around in order to deceive Yi Yunzhe.
Suddenly he felt emotional, and the guilt in his heart surged again.
Ten years ago, the company suffered heavy losses due to his willfulness and impulsiveness, and his grandfather was disgraced by him too. Ten years later, the company was once again facing extreme difficulties due to his arrogance and carelessness, and he even made his ill grandfather worried about him again.
Qin Jinhuan, after this incident, you’ll have to reflect on yourself because Grandpa can’t have your back forever.
“Huan, this is the new mobile phone that Zeyu bought for you. It’s the latest model. I heard that playing mobile games with it is a thrill. Why don’t you download the Mobile Legends game and try it out?”
Mu Yu’s voice pulled him back to reality. As soon as he opened his eyes, he saw Mu Yu’s fawning smile. He thought that it was funny but he tried to keep a poker face and ignore her.
“If you don’t want to play with your mobile phone, how about having breakfast? Let’s have a bowl of ginseng chicken soup first. Zeyu cooked it just for you.”
Mu Yu put down the mobile phone, and waited for a few seconds but didn’t get any response from him. With a hint of coquetry, she nudged his arm and asked, “Are you still angry with me? Don’t be so unforgiving. Didn’t I tell you that it’s just a nickname? Didn’t you always call me Mayo too?”
He continued to ignore her while he deliberately looked aside and pursed his mouth to pretend to be angry.
“Then, will it make you feel better if I change it?”
He immediately grabbed her hand that reached for her phone, and said, “Even if you changed it now, you have already hurt me. It has left a scar on my heart.”
“A scar? Is it that serious?”
“Yes! You have ruined my reputation, so you have to compensate for it. ”
His serious manner amused her.
It turned out that he was actually looking for ‘compensation’.
With a sigh of relief, she chuckled and turned to cling to his arm and asked, “How should I compensate?”
“Since my reputation has been ruined, then the thing that I have to do is…” he dragged the last syllable out, and suddenly, he pulled her into his arms, “to live up to that nickname, so that I won’t be at a loss.”
“Huh?! You, don’t…”
The kiss was too sudden and it caught her off-guard. But after thinking that this happened because of the nickname ‘crisis’, she secretly rejoiced. She hugged him, and for the first time ever, she seriously responded to his ‘intimacy.’
This fella, if he wants to kiss me, he should have just said so. Why does he have to beat around the bush and make my nerves on edge? She grumbled sweetly in her heart.
After a while, his lips moved slowly along her cheeks, all the way to her ears, before he whispered, “Yu…”
“Huh?” Noticing that something was not right with his expression, she quickly pushed him away and reminded him that they were still at the hospital. “Huan, we still have a long future ahead of us so can you please give me some time?”
Now that she had confessed to him, and had made up her mind to be with him, added to the fact he had also accepted her, they could be considered husband and wife. It was very reasonable for them to do what a married couple should do. It was just a matter of time anyway. However, at this moment, she was really terrified because she couldn’t help but recall how she slept in the same bed as Yi Yunzhe.
Although she couldn’t remember what happened that day, whenever she thought of opening her eyes and seeing Yi Yunzhe sleeping beside her, an uncontrolled sense of shame would emerge in her heart. And this caused her to inadvertently resist any of Qin Jinhuan’s intimate behavior other than kissing.
Sensing that Qin Jinhuan had stopped and released her, she secretly let out a sigh of relief. But when she caught his inquisitive gaze, her heart tensed up once again.
Did he see through her panic? Would he be just like her, holding a grudge as well?
He did say that he didn’t blame her as it was not her fault, but he was a man after all! A very arrogant man at that. She couldn’t even let go of that incident. Could he turn the page without being bothered by it?
He…
“Silly, look at how nervous you are, I am just teasing you. With my current physical condition, what else can I do?” He smiled and gently patted her face. Pointing at a table which was full of meal boxes, he asked, “I’m hungry. Can you help me see what else is there to eat? I will skip the ginseng chicken soup. It’s too oily for me and I have no appetite for that.”
“There is a lot here. I’ll get it for you so that you can choose yourself.” Mu Yu smoothed her messy clothes while getting out of the bed hastily.
She only dared to show her panicked expression after turning her back to Qin Jinhuan because she noticed the ferocious look in his eyes, which was obviously directed at Yi Yunzhe and not her.
But with his current situation, there was no way he could compete with Yi Yunzhe!
She thought of the time when Cheng Xiang was overconfident and acted beyond his capabilities. She got more and more worried, for fear that Qin Jinhuan would be as impulsive as Cheng Xiang.
But she didn’t know how to stop him. Therefore, she could only pray for him to stay rational and to not do anything reckless.
“Where is Zeyu?”
“He took a bag and went to look for Director Rong. I think he is delivering breakfast to her. It seems that he really cares about her.” She pretended to respond in a relaxed manner so that he wouldn’t worry about her.
“That fella went to curry favor with the director again. Yu, why don’t you eat?”
“I’m eating. Who says I’m not? Crab dumplings are my favorite.” Mu Yu hurriedly grabbed the chopsticks to pick up a crab dumpling and ate it slowly.
“Have more if you like them.” Qin Jinhuan smiled and pushed the lunch box with the crab dumplings toward her. “You should drink two bowls of ginseng chicken soup to nourish your body. You don’t have much fat on you and you even lost a few pounds within these two days. You are becoming a skeleton monster, and I don’t like it if my wife became one. That would be too hideous.”
“Enough about me, didn’t you lose some weight too? You almost lost your handsome figure.”
“What? You would not like me if I’m not handsome anymore?”
“Yeah! I don’t like it! Not at all. So you need to eat more and let your body recover quickly. I like you that way.” Mu Yu smiled and handed him a bowl of ginseng chicken soup.
“The ginseng chicken soup is too oily, I don’t feel like having it.”
“Just take a sip. It’s not that oily. Don’t waste Zeyu’s effort.”
“Ok then. Let’s have it together.”
“Okay.” She sat down in front of him. When she saw him scooping up a spoonful of the soup, she opened her mouth immediately.
“Oh hey! Being all lovey-dovey early in the morning I see!”
The sudden sound behind them startled Mu Yu, causing her to cough profusely before she could swallow the soup.
“Mu Yu, you’re such a scaredy cat”
“Wen Zeyu!”
“My bad! It’s my fault. I apologize!” Wen Zeyu raised his hands in surrender and apologized to Qin Jinhuan who was glaring at him.
“Get out!”
“Don’t be like this, I…”
“滚!”
“Get out!”
“My friend, I have something for you.” Wen Zeyu handed a piece of paper to Qin Jinhuan flatteringly.
It was a five million cheque.
“You’ve asked your old man for money again?”
“I didn’t ask it from him. He insisted on giving me the cheque. He…” Wen Zeyu paused. When he saw that Mu Yu had stopped coughing, he then pointed at the crab dumplings before he turned to look at her and said, “Mu Yu, Ying likes crab dumplings too! But I forgot to buy some for her. Can you help me send some to her? It’s her favourite!”
“Ah? Sure!” Mu Yu stood up immediately. She covered the box of crab dumplings and said, “I will send it to her now.”
“Thank you. She should still be in her office.”
“Don’t mention it,” Mu Yu said and left the ward.
As soon as Mu Yu went out of the room, Wen Zeyu said, “Huan, I have great news!”
