Silence resonated in the corridor as Sikong Heng’s bright, black eyes were now fixed upon Bai Xue’s exqusite, egg-shaped face.
“…”
It was just her luck to get caught out like that. She should probably go get some lottery tickets now. But on second thought, she hadn’t said anything bad about him.
Bai Xue graciously met Sikong Heng’s eyes. “Doctor Sikong, are you going back now?”
Ding. The lift arrived at this moment. Sikong Heng didn’t look at Bai Xue but just entered the lift.
“…”
Since she also had to take the lift, Bai Xue had no choice but to join him.
…
Having detected that the situation was dire, the two nurses had already long fled. Only Sikong Heng and Bai Xue were inside the lift as it slowly made its way down.
Since she was just snubbed by him, Bai Xue naturally wouldn’t try speaking with him again. So she silently stood there.
Glancing towards the mirrored doors, she could easily see him through the reflection. Sikong Heng was standing behind her to the side and his gaze was directed at her.
Was he eyeing her?
He really was eyeing her.
Bai Xue was stunned. In her opinion, Sikong Heng had an exemplary education and was a refined gentleman. He was the top of his league in the medical world, and exuded the cold, sharp aura of the medical elite.
As a high-born descendant from the noble classes, his clean, pristine, god-like aura made him seem above all worldly sins and desires. She truly never expected such a man to eye her so openly from behind.
Yes, Sikong Heng was indeed eyeing her.
Earlier while waiting for the lift, she said he was no different from the common man, that he would also like fair skin, a beautiful face and long legs.
He didn’t deny it.
She also said he had very high criteria when choosing a woman, and that he would also require a tiny waist, perky butt…
There was nothing to be denied here either.
All these years, no woman had managed to catch his attention. As a doctor, his criteria for a woman’s physique was exceptionally strict.
In his eyes, he had never met a woman who had the perfect body. His tastes were extremely high, especially in terms of picking a woman.
But this woman before him…
Sikong Heng looked at Bai Xue, whose mane of waist-length hair was well-maintained and silky smooth. She had an hourglass figure and possessed a tiny waist. Her butt was very perky. Hundreds of thousands of women strived to achieve such a butt but most would find it impossible.
A woman with such a perky butt was one in a million. She could make men feel… their desires stirring within.
Sikong Heng had his hand in his pocket and he wriggled it slightly. His throat felt a bit itchy. It was a sudden and peculiar feeling.
He felt her gaze.
Sikong Heng lifted his eyes to look at her exquisite egg-shaped face. His gaze was warm and mild, without any traces of embarrassment. It was as if he was not the guy who had been eyeing a female with lasviscious thoughts.
Bai Xue lifted her fair hand and tucked a strand of silky hair behind her ear. She looked at Sikong Heng’s reflection in the mirror and smiled. She was truly lovely. “Doctor Sikong, are you angry about what happened earlier?”
Sikong Heng remained expressionless. “What happened earlier?”
“…”
Hmph. He was really good at pretending.
Bai Xue smiled. “I was in the wrong. I shouldn’t have discussed your personal affairs behind your back. I am sorry.”
She was in the wrong?
Sikong Heng looked at her. Although she just said she was in the wrong, her calm expression indicated that she didn’t feel sorry at all.
She must have felt that what she said was true. She was certain that he liked women with fair skin, a beautiful face, long legs, a tiny waist, perky butt… and E-cup breasts.
Sikong Heng smirked nonchalantly. “You were right, except for one thing. I don’t like E-cup breasts.”
Eyes widening imperceptibly, Bai Xue didn’t know how to respond.
Sikong Heng continued mildly. “E-cup breasts are not the perfect figure. Instead, it will look rather weird. I…”
Sikong Heng glanced down at her tender, heaving cleavage. “…must say I prefer C-cup breasts.”
“…”
Was he… flirting with her?
He had just clearly told her that he liked women with fair skin, a beautiful face, long legs, a tiny waist, perky butt and C-cup breasts.
Didn’t that describe her perfectly?
Bai Xue was totally dumbstruck. The impeccable and unsullied Sikong Heng was actually… a man who was cold and quiet on the outside, but wild and passionate on the inside.
Finally, the lift came to a stop and the door opened. Sikong Heng looked at her with mild amusement before leaving.
…
In the hospital.
Jun Xiqing had been keeping watch over her brother all this while. Steady, vigorous footsteps sounded out along the corridor on the outside. Someone had come.
When she fluttered her long lashes and turned around, it was only to see a long, lean figure standing in the doorway.
Ah, it was Lu Yeming.
It was deep into the night. Lu Yeming was wearing a black trench coat and looked every bit the powerful and mighty Emperor that he was.
He lifted one long finger and knocked on the door with a firm rhythm. His deep, almond-shaped eyes landed on her little face.
It seemed he had personally come to fetch her back.
This time, Jun Xiqing knew that she had to go back with him.
Giving her brother one final glance, she tucked the blankets in properly. She also left some instructions to the senior nurse, before walking out and shutting the ward door behind her.
Standing in the corridor, Jun Xiqing looked at the man before her and smirked. “President Lu has personally come to fetch me. I am so pampered. Let’s go.”
Jun Xiqing turned to go.
One large hand reached out and grasped her slim wrist.
“What’s the matter now, President Lu?”
Lu Yeming looked at her cold and impatient expression. He raised his brows and took one step forward, before lifting her up, princess-style.
He carried her as he walked.
Jun Xiqing was stunned for a bit, but didn’t resist. She was feeling faint anyway, there was no need to make things difficult for herself.
Nevertheless, she gave a low, mocking laugh. “If you truly have any concern for me, you would let me stay here with my brother. You are bringing me back now just to bed me, right?
“I suppose a beast will always be a beast, but at least you are a gentlemanly beast. President Lu is truly one-of-a-kind. So classy.”
Fan Men’s temples throbbed when he heard Jun Xiqing’s mocking words. He stole a glimpse at Lu Yeming, who remained totally expressionless.
…
The Palace.
Entering the bedroom, Lu Yeming lowered Jun Xiqing gently onto the floor. She turned and headed toward the big bed.
Almost immediately, she started to undo the buttons on her dress, and let the clothing slip off her shoulders, revealing her smooth, fair skin.
“President Lu, let’s just get down to it? I have taken off my clothes, so you can now do whatever you want…”
Then she turned to look at Lu Yeming and gave a smile that did not meet her eyes. “I have just one request. You can vent yourself on me any way you want, but I implore you to do it faster. To be honest, I am very tired and want to sleep after you finish your business.”
