Chapter 700: Heartache

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Tang Zhe felt a lot of pressure after hanging up the phone.

When he pushed open the bathroom door, he could still hear the heart-wrenching cries of the woman outside.

The doctor was helpless with the equipment and could only look at Tang Zhe for help. “Secretary Tang, if Miss Chen doesn’t cooperate, we won’t be able to complete our work.”

“Okay, you guys go out first. Let me talk to her alone first.” After saying this, Tang Zhe let go of the buttons on his suit and lifted his clothes to sit by the bed. His eyes were dark.

Seeing this, the doctor could only pack his things and go to the living room first. With a soft click of the bedroom door, only the two of them were left in the room.

Tang Zhe softened his tone and advised, “I didn’t bring you to the hospital for a checkup. Instead, I invited the doctor to your house. You should know that I’m doing this to protect you. You just have to cooperate with the doctor to take a sample. Once you confirm that what you said is true, President Yi will definitely compensate you.”

“Could it be that what 1 said is fake?” Chen Jiao hugged the pillow aggrievedly and curled up into a small ball, unwilling to let go. “Cousin, we haven’t been together since we were young, but I’m your cousin after all. Would 1 lie about my innocence?”

“That’s not what I meant.”

Tang Zhe grabbed her shoulder with a headache. “Listen to me. It’s not that Cousin doesn’t believe you, but President Yi really needs this proof.”

“Prove what? Prove that he didn’t have sex with me at all so that he can report to his fiancee?” Chen Jiao said with tears in her eyes, “Cousin, I’m not a child who doesn’t know anything. 1 understand. President Yi definitely doesn’t want his fiancee to know about this, so he wants me to do a checkup to prove his innocence. What about me? Isn’t my body important?”

Tang Zhe sighed deeply and said, “Cousin, 1 swear that I’ll personally take a look at this test result. There’s no possibility of it being fake. If you really had sex with President Yi last night, 1’11 definitely help you!”

Chen Jiao suddenly turned her head away. Half of her face was buried in her long hair, so no one could see her expression. “Cousin, is what you said true?” “It’s true!” Tang Zhe was overjoyed when he heard that she was showing signs of relenting. “Then are you willing to do a checkup?”

Chen Jiao’s ears turned red in embarrassment. She hesitated for a moment before nodding under Tang Zhe’s expectant gaze. “Alright, I believe Cousin will stand up for me.”

“That’s great!” Tang Zhe jumped out of bed almost immediately and went outside to find the doctor to come in.

Chen Jiao threw away the pillow in her arms and sat on the bed with her head lowered.

Her long hair blocked her expression, so no one could tell that she was smiling.

After the doctor brought the things in again, Chen Jiao finally became very cooperative.

Tang Zhe comforted her softly before leaving the bedroom to wait for the results.

After all, Chen Jiao was his cousin. As a man, it was not good for him to stand inside and watch.

In the living room, the second hand of the clock was ticking. Tang Zhe’s heart was beating like a drum.

Soon, the door was opened from the inside again.

The doctor had already packed up and came out. He took off his mask and said with a smile, “I’ve already taken the samples and will head back for a test. The results should be out before dinner.”

“Alright, thank you.” Tang Zhe hurriedly and respectfully sent her away. He instructed the chauffeur to send her back to the hospital safely before turning back.

As soon as he entered the bedroom, he heard the soft sobbing sound inside, and his footsteps subconsciously lightened.

On the bed, a pink blanket was propped up. Chen Jiao was curled up in it and trembling, looking extremely cute.

Tang Zhe’s heart could not help but soften even more. He could not help but pat her shoulder through the blanket and say, “Alright, you’ve been crying for the entire day. Cousin will bring you out for a meal, okay?”

As Chen Jiao lifted the blanket, tears were streaming down her face.

When Tang Zhe saw her tear-stained face, his heart ached. He did not even have the time to push Chen Jiao away when she took the initiative to throw herself into his arms and hug his waist.

“Cousin, don’t tell my Mom about this first, okay? I’m scared, I’m really scared.” She curled up in Tang Zhe’s arms, her ear pressed against his heart. She could hear the butterflies in his chest.

“Okay,” Tang Zhe agreed without hesitation.

This matter concerned a girl’s reputation. Since Chen Jiao, the person involved, did not want to say anything, he naturally could not say anything.

Actually, Tang Zhe already believed Chen Jiao’s words in his heart.

He was afraid that something had really happened between Yi Zheng and her that night. It was just that Yi Zheng had no memory because of the medicine.

However, as a man, he knew very well that the instincts of creatures were difficult to control.

In the end, both of them were victims.

“Alright, put on your clothes. 1’11 take you to eat something. You won’t look good if you continue to cry,” Tang Zhe coaxed her softly. He raised his hands in midair and hesitated for a while before finally pushing her away. He looked elsewhere unnaturally.

Chen Jiao couldn’t help but snicker when she saw his reddened ears. Before he realized it, she quickly put on that aggrieved expression again. “Cousin, tell me about President Yi’s fiancee..”
