Chapter 127 Passion in the Clinic, Someone Knocks on the Door

Lin Chen scoffed.

"Pfft, with what you've got?"

"Maybe I'll be having a lot more fun than you!"

Lin Chen muttered to himself:

I have the chance to predict thirty seconds for seven days.

Let's see how I play this!

So Lin Chen waved his hand,

picking up his suitcase by the wall:

"I'm going to buy some things first,"

"Make sure to lock the door when you guys leave."

"I'm heading out now,"

"See you after the holiday!"

"See you after the holiday!"

The three of them replied in unison, not forgetting to add,

"Have fun!"

Lin Chen dragged his suitcase,

slowly walking down from the dormitory building,

muttering under his breath:

"What should I buy?"

He looked down and kicked a small pebble at his feet,

calculating in his mind:

This counts as the first time I'm taking the initiative to see Zhao Mengyao,

technically, it counts as seeing my "girlfriend", right?

I can't be too obvious about it,

after all, she was the one who initiated the flirting that night,

if I'm too proactive, it'll look like I'm desperate.

At the thought of Zhao Mengyao,

he couldn't help but curl his lips:

This woman is truly interesting.

That night at the bar, she was so proactive,

flirting and clinging to me,

but four or five days have passed,

and she hasn't sent me a single message,

could it be,

she just wanted a one-night stand with me?

But on second thought, he smiled:

Regardless of whether she wants it or not,

as long as I want it, it's fine.

Besides, that "big sister" aura of hers,

I really like it; she's both seductive and cool,

much more exciting than those little girls.

Walking near the School Gate,

he looked up at a flower shop by the roadside,

and patted his head:

"Fine, I'll just buy a bouquet of flowers. It's not too deliberate, and it'll make her happy—killing two birds with one stone."

Half an hour later.

Lin Chen, harboring his little schemes,

sauntered into Zhao Mengyao's consultation room,

just as she had finished seeing her last patient.

The afternoon sun shone through the blinds,

casting mottled shadows on her white coat,

making her features look less cold than during work and a bit more soft.

"Dr. Zhao, busy?"

Lin Chen closed the door behind him,

intentionally making his voice sound frivolous,

his gaze fixed straight on her,

"I missed you, so I came specifically to see you."

Zhao Mengyao was looking down, organizing medical records,

she looked up and glared at him upon hearing this,

but the corners of her mouth couldn't help but curl up slightly,

her tone carrying a hint of helplessness and indulgence:

"Lin Chen, cut it out,"

"this is a consultation room, don't be so improper."

She put down the pen in her hand,

and gently rubbed her brow with her fingertips,

days of overtime had left faint dark circles under her eyes.

Lin Chen saw this and unconsciously stepped closer,

handing her a beautiful bouquet of flowers from behind.

"These are for you. You've worked hard, take a break."

Seeing the flowers, Zhao Mengyao's mood instantly changed.

A smile appeared.

{Pick-up Tip: All women love flowers; she'll like it if you give her some.}

Zhao Mengyao took the flowers and sniffed them,

"So fragrant!"

She had just set the flowers aside.

A wave of warm breath enveloped her first,

Lin Chen reached out and gently pressed down on her hand,

his fingertips deliberately rubbing against her cool fingers,

through the thin white coat,

that bit of heat reached her skin directly,

making Zhao Mengyao's body suddenly stiffen,

and her breath hitched for a moment.

"Look how tired you are,"

his voice was very low,

having shed the frivolity,

wrapped in a bit of lazy tenderness,

"can't you rest for a bit?"

"It breaks my heart."

Zhao Mengyao wanted to pull her hand back,

but he held it tighter; she looked up at him,

with a hint of reproach in her eyes:

"Let go, what if someone comes in?"

Though she said that,

the strength in her hand weakened,

and she stopped struggling.

"What's there to be afraid of?"

Lin Chen leaned over,

almost pressing his entire body against her side,

his warm breath brushed against her ear, carrying a faint scent of tobacco.

It caused the tip of her ear to flush instantly,

and even her neck was tinged with a faint pink.

"You just finished with a patient, no one will come right now,"

his fingertips slid along the back of her hand,

sliding gently to her wrist and lightly grasping it,

his tone carrying a bit of allure,

"I just want to get a good look at you, is that not okay?"

His gaze fell on her reddened ear tip,

a smug smile playing at the corners of his mouth,

thinking of the absurdity of that night at the bar,

and the Time Prediction Skill he had just unlocked,

he had a few more ideas in mind.

"By the way,"

he paused intentionally, his fingertips gently rubbing the back of her hand,

"That night at the bar, did you sleep well after you got home?"

Mentioning that night made Zhao Mengyao's cheeks even redder,

her gaze unconsciously drifted elsewhere,

and her tone softened:

"Um... I was drunk, my best friend came over to sleep at my place."

"Thanks for your concern."

But her heart rate involuntarily quickened,

remembering the intimacy of that night, her fingertips felt a bit hot.

Lin Chen looked at her bashful appearance,

feeling an itch in his heart, he leaned closer to her,

they were so close he could smell the faint scent of disinfectant on her,

mixed with her unique fragrance, it was exceptionally alluring.

"Thanks for my concern?"

He arched an eyebrow, his tone slightly provocative,

"I don't think so,"

"beautiful Dr. Zhao,"

"shouldn't you show your thanks with some action?"

Zhao Mengyao looked up and glared at him,

but there was no real anger in her eyes,

instead, there was a bit of panic:

"What do you want to do?"

"This is a hospital!"

"Nothing much,"

Lin Chen laughed,

letting go of her hand,

but leaning against the office desk behind her,

trapping her firmly between himself and the desk,

their chests were almost touching; he could clearly feel her rapid heartbeat.

"I just want to tell you that I miss you very much right now!"

Lin Chen's expression was seductive, his eyes as deep as a pool of water,

locking onto her gaze,

his fingertips inadvertently brushed past her waist,

making her whole body tremble.

Trapped by him,

she could see his deep eyes just by looking up,

her heart beat even faster, yet she couldn't help but be curious:

"Don't... there are still people queuing outside."

Lin Chen leaned down,

his nose gently brushing against hers,

their warm breaths intermingling,

his voice dropped very low, carrying a lethal allure:

"Don't be afraid!"

"We haven't even done anything yet, what's there to fear!"

"Are you suggesting I should be a bit more reckless next!"

His tone was aggressively provocative.

He paused, his fingertips gently pinching her chin,

forcing her to look up at him,

Zhao Mengyao's cheeks instantly turned crimson,

she subconsciously lowered her head,

her heart beating so fast it felt like it would jump out of her chest,

she didn't even have the courage to look up at him.

Seeing her like this,

Lin Chen couldn't help but chuckle softly,

reaching out to gently pinch her cheek:

he kissed her directly.

Zhao Mengyao was also swept up in it and took the initiative to wrap her arms around Lin Chen's neck.

Just as the two were kissing passionately.

A nurse holding a stack of documents would knock and come in.

"Knock knock..."

Startled, Zhao Mengyao immediately pulled back,

and straightened her white coat.

After all, this was her workplace, not a bar or somewhere else.

She didn't want anyone to see her in an improper state.

Lin Chen immediately restrained his smile,

reaching out to grab Zhao Mengyao's wrist, leading her toward the side of the privacy curtain without a word:

"Stop looking down, hide quickly, someone's coming in a moment."

Zhao Mengyao stumbled as he pulled her,

subconsciously falling into his arms, her cheek pressed tightly against his chest,

she could clearly hear his strong heartbeat,

intermingling with her own, in a chaotic mess.

"You're crazy!"
