My Sloppy Husband Is Actually a Handsome Bigshot!-Chapter 92: Blood Draw 2
Chapter 92 - 92: Blood Draw 2
Isn't he supposed to be having dinner at Yunjing?
How did he end up at the pharmacy?
"Which kind..." He Bainian said expressionlessly, his lips barely moving, forming two words.
What? He spoke so softly that Lin Zhenxin didn't quite catch it.
"Which kind of... hangover medicine is... good?"
Lin Zhenxin froze in place, unable to react for a moment.
She even instinctively glanced around to make sure she wasn't just being overly self-conscious.
"Are you talking to me?" she asked.
"Who else, a ghost?" He Bainian retorted.
Lin Zhenxin was at a loss for words, and the two fell back into silence.
"Do you know that Li Miya came to trouble me?" she suddenly said.
He Bainian's brows furrowed. Judging by his expression, it was clear he was unaware of this matter.
"What did she want with you?"
Thinking about Li Miya, He Bainian was reminded of the coat caught between the legs, feeling immediately repulsed.
"What she wanted with me doesn't really matter now, but she did tell me something..."
"What?"
"She said she saw my file in your drawer."
He Bainian chose to remain silent.
It was true, but he didn't expect Li Miya to see it.
"He Bainian, I know that because of Yannan and He Nuoxin, you don't like me..."
Lin Zhenxin paused at this point.
"But can you please leave me alone? I really can't handle it!"
After saying this, Lin Zhenxin turned and left the counter, spoke a few words to the pharmacist.
When she returned, she was holding something.
She handed it to He Bainian without any expression.
"Pay for it yourself."
After that, without any hesitation, she left the pharmacy.
After Lin Zhenxin left, He Bainian remained in place.
He even ignored the store clerk who kept looking at him.
Looking down at the hangover medicine in his hand, even he didn't notice...
The edges of his thin lips...
Slowly curled into a smile...
Returning home, Lin Zhenxin immediately poured a glass of warm water, watching Li Yanan until he took the medicine to feel assured.
Maybe due to the medicine's effect, he soon felt drowsy.
"You should get some sleep." She touched his forehead, still feverishly hot. ƒгeewёbnovel.com
"What about you?"
"It's early for me to work, I'll lie next to you." Lin Zhenxin said, then lay down beside him.
As soon as she got close, she was embraced by Li Yanan, as though he was a source of heat.
Lin Zhenxin giggled, looking down at him.
She quietly began to gently stroke his back, soon hearing his even breathing beside her.
Seeing Li Yanan fall asleep, Lin Zhenxin quietly got out of bed, went to the living room to fetch the first aid kit.
Carefully she cut open the bandages wrapped on his hand from before.
Just as she thought, after getting wet yesterday, Li Yanan only treated it casually.
Now the wound was completely inflamed, stuck to the bandage.
No wonder he had a fever.
Thinking this, she lightened her hand movements even more.
When everything was handled, it was already an hour later.
Looking at the man who didn't wake up thanks to the medicine, Lin Zhenxin's heart softened.
She recalled the incident at the pharmacy.
If it were before, she wouldn't have had the patience to talk to He Bainian but this time was different.
During dinner, Li Yanan mentioned He Bainian's expression and gaze...
Making Lin Zhenxin genuinely feel that he still had feelings for He Bainian.
Even though she didn't know what really happened back then...
When Lin Zhenxin arrived at the radio station in the afternoon, Xiao Shen seemed to be in a much better mood, chatting and laughing with colleagues.
Upon seeing Lin Zhenxin come in, the laughter stopped immediately, turning her head pretending not to see her.
Lin Zhenxin sat down at her desk, others gradually arrived.
"Who brought the chocolates!" someone joked.
"My relatives just brought them back from abroad."
"So generous!"
Everyone in the office was used to it, anything to eat was shared among everyone.
Just to have a bit of fun.
"Don't tease me, I'm not some Cinderella who married into a wealthy family, just sharing a bit for everyone to try." Xiao Shen finished, and the office atmosphere became awkward.
Lin Zhenxin's expression turned cold.
If there was a subtle exclusion earlier, now it was an obvious target.
Everyone looked at each other, deciding to pretend they didn't understand and remain neutral.
"Can't the food shut your mouth!" Only Sister Wang coldly reprimanded.
Lin Zhenxin didn't say a word from start to finish.
Because of that unit, she ended up having a conflict with Xiao Shen.
If it weren't for the busy few days, Lin Zhenxin would have discussed with Li Yanan.
The affordable housing from the unit, she might as well just let Xiao Shen have it.
But Lin Zhenxin's character doesn't submit to threats, the more Xiao Shen is like this, the less she wants to let go.
Just then, a colleague walked in from outside, smiling charmingly.
"Did you know? Someone brought a huge advertising fee!"
Everyone eagerly inquired.
"He Bainian sent someone saying he wants to invest in advertising, and specifically in our program."
As these words fell, Lin Zhenxin was stunned.
Just then, another person walked in from outside.
Holding a bouquet of yellow roses.
"Miss Lin Zhenxin, President He asked me to deliver this, and to convey his apologies for last time."
The speaker was He Bainian's assistant.
As he spoke, colleagues looked on in astonishment.
Before Lin Zhenxin could react, the flowers were placed on her desk, and He Bainian's assistant turned to leave.
A long silence.
"Zhenxin, don't you think... He Bainian really likes you?" someone said.
As the colleague spoke, Lin Zhenxin felt a thump on her forehead.
Only Xiao Shen let out a sarcastic laugh.
Looking at the bouquet of yellow roses, Lin Zhenxin suddenly threw it into the trash...
Inside He Bainian's company.
The assistant had just returned when he was called into the office.
He looked anxiously at his boss staring at him, wondering why he hadn't said a word yet?
"Boss, the items have been delivered." He decided to speak first to gain some initiative.
"Hmm." After a simple response, silence resumed.
The assistant almost wanted to cry, was that a good sign or not?
"What was the reaction?"
"Huh?" Finally hearing his boss speak, the assistant was confused.
Boss, could you not speak so succinctly?
"I said, how did she... respond?" He Bainian glanced at the assistant, unusually patient as he repeated.
"No... no reaction at all."
At least in his impression, it seemed like from start to finish, Miss Lin Zhenxin was expressionless.
He Bainian tapped the table with his fingers.
Those who know him understand, this is his thinking gesture.
"Boss, if there's nothing else, I'll get going."
The company was just getting on track, with plenty for him to handle.
He Bainian didn't stop him, which was as good as consent.
The assistant turned and left...
Once again, He Bainian was alone in the office.
Frowning, deep in contemplation.
No reaction?
Then what was that?
He reached for the mouse on the desk.
The dark screen lit up.
An icon of a well-known national forum, X Yae, appeared.
A post was trending with popular replies.
The title was...
My admirer caused trouble for another woman because of me, how should I apologize.
Replies were all over the place.
Most suggested the OP had a severe case of 'straight man's cancer'.
Some even replied...
How do you know she caused trouble for the other woman because of you, what if she liked the girl herself?
With a bang, the computer screen went black again.
He Bainian had just forcibly shut down the computer.
"Nonsense!"
In the evening, during dinner, Lin Zhenxin called Yao Lemon out.
They met at a Hong Kong-style restaurant near the radio station.
"Do you think he's insane?"
Lin Zhenxin was filled with anger, all afternoon, the office busily whispering about the yellow roses.
"What if He Bainian really likes you?"
Yao Lemon reached for another basket of shrimp dumplings.
"Like me? Considering what happened between his sister and Yanan, he can't wait to see me as a thorn in his side!"
Those words were only said in front of Yao Lemon.
"Might there be another possibility?" Yao Lemon suddenly slammed the table, startling Lin Zhenxin.
"What?"
"Isn't his sister after your husband? What if he's doing all this for her! Think about it, if he keeps causing trouble, maybe he wants to win you over, make you divorce Li Yanan, then... get his sister back with him?"
Yao Lemon's imagination was running wild, leaving Lin Zhenxin struggling to keep up for a moment.
But she caught the gist.
"You mean, He Bainian is trying to create tension between Yanan and me?"
"Exactly!" Yao Lemon nodded, putting the last shrimp dumpling into her mouth.
Lin Zhenxin's dislike for He Bainian grew stronger.
"And that Tu Haohao, from what you've said, she doesn't seem like a bad person."
Yao Lemon not only didn't think Tu Haohao was a bad person, she even found her a bit cute.
On this matter, Lin Zhenxin kept silent.
Yao Lemon almost wanted to slap herself for bringing up the Tu Family at such a good moment.
"Do you think I'm being too heartless?"
"Nonsense, what heartless? I'm telling you, even if the test results come out, you better hold firm and not donate!"
Yao Lemon spat three times.
"If Tu Haohao wants to blame someone, let it be the Tu Family!"
Yao Lemon didn't know all the details about Lin Zhenxin and the Tu Family, but she was unconditionally on Lin Zhenxin's side.
"Though I'm curious, between Li Yanan and He Nuoxin, did he ever admit he was wrong..."
Before finishing, Yao Lemon widened her eyes innocently at Lin Zhenxin, realizing she shouldn't have brought up He Nuoxin.
"Although Yanan never told me, I sense... this kind of wrongdoing isn't physical... it's not that kind of thing!"
With Yao Lemon, Lin Zhenxin had no qualms.
"How do you know?" Yao Lemon wasn't doubting Li Yanan, just that Lin Zhenxin's expression felt suspicious!
