Chapter 271 - Jiang Lily~
"By the way, Jiang Li, can I ask you something?"
Lihua asked as they were heading back to their rooms.
Jiang Li furrowed his brows. "What is it?"
"Why didn't you think of going to Yang Mingshen for help?"
Jiang Lanying slightly parted her lips in surprise. "Oh yes. The Yang family is in the medical field after all."
Lihua nodded. "En. Of course, I am not doubting Jin Zhilan's capabilities. But don't Yang and Jiang families know each other?"
Jiang Li grimaced. "Yang Mingshen? As if! First a fall, I didn't seek out his help exactly because our families know each other. I wanted to keep it a secret and like hell I would let a close family know about my condition."
"Ah…"
"And secondly, I hate that guy. He is arrogant, rude and extremely difficult to work with. I am not interested in becoming his research subject. I can already imagine his amusing reaction."
Lihua coughed.
Well, I cannot deny that...He is an eccentric person.
Jiang Li sneered. "It's even worse telling him to keep it a secret. God knows how many times he would have experimented on me by threatening me to keep his mouth shut about my condition. That bastard is one sly fox."
Jiang Lanying sighed.
"But I think it would be a good idea if we just tried once. As you said, Yang Mingshen is," she coughed, "a little strange...he might have some different approach? Plus, it's not a secret anymore."
Jiang Li coldly grumbled. "I don't like that guy…"
Lihua agreed. "Yes, yes. He is a nasty man but I have to admit that he is competent. Let's try meeting him tomorrow. Right, Wei?"
Wei nodded. "En."
---
"Oh~~ look who has come to meet me. LiLi! How is my adorable LiLi faring with his problem?" Mingshen sneered as he lazily leaned his back on the chair, twirling a scalpel in his hand.
With an extremely dangerous expression that shot deathly laser beams towards Mingshen, Jiang Li cursed him to no end. If looks could kill, Mingshen would have already died a thousand deaths.
Lihua's mouth twitched. "LiLi?"
That's another reason why I don't like to see this guy!
"Yes. How is my cute LiLi doing these days? Awee, I saw Weibo flooding with such appreciation for you that it brought tears to my eyes."
Jiang Li almost jumped to strangle him but his wife quickly pulled him back. "Li. We are not here to fight."
"Tell that to him!" He gritted his teeth.
Lihua looked at Wei and asked, "Why does he call him LiLi?"
He tilted his head. "I don't know. But Mingshen always smiles like that when he says that."
Mingshen snorted. "As expected of a dumb woman. You don't fail your reputation."
Now, Lihua was about to jump at him. "How should I understand your cryptic language!?"
"Isn't Lily a flower's name? His name matches so much with an adorable flower~"
Lihua choked. She stared at Jiang Li and compared him with the beautiful Lily flower. Somehow, the images didn't match. Jiang Lanying was perfect with her delicate appearance but Jiang Li...
A gulp passed through her throat.
So... feminine…
"Why are you looking at me like that!? I know what you are thinking!" Jiang Li glared at her.
"I-I wasn't thinking of anything," she averted her gaze.
But the chuckle on her lips that she was trying to hold gave her away.
Jiang Li grabbed her wrist and started pulling her away. "I had enough of it! I am going!"
"Li!" She tried to stop him.
Mingshen rested his head on his palm. "I might have something for you that could help to get rid of your toxins~"
He froze in his steps. He turned and looked at him suspiciously. "What?"
Mingshen lazily stretched his arms and yawned. "You know, recently, I was doing some research on sperm cells and female eggs regarding the effects of different chemicals on it. I got quite some amusing reactions. As I am an extremely talented doctor, I got quite good results. It will help but I can see that you want to leave," he smiled. "Please go ahead."
Jiang Li grimaced.
Damn it!
Lihua's mouth twitched. "Just how many sorts of things do you research?"
"Everything and anything that the world of medicine has to offer. Since I have a brain unlike you, I can put it to good use," Mingshen sneered.
"..."
"Do you mean to say that I am not intelligent?" She gnashed her jaw.
Mingshen stared at her. "Do I have to bother to comment on that?"
Feeling aggrieved, she looked at Wei and he patted her head. "Ignore him. My wife is the most intelligent out of everyone."
Mingshen dryly looked at him and turned his gaze away. "Disgusting. Stay away from me, Jiang Wei, lest I catch your stupid virus of stupidly doting your wife."
She glared at him. "I say that you should learn that quality from Wei!"
"What quality?"
"To appreciate people!"
"I appreciate only myself. Plus, you aren't even a human but a dumb alien."
Lihua was so furious that she could only tremblingly point her finger at him but she was afraid that she would face another round of humiliation so she shut her mouth.
"I am leaving! Let me cry in Aunt Bingqing's arms…" she sniffled.
She left Jiang Li and Jiang Lanying to continue with his diagnosis while she stormed her way towards Yang Bingqing.
"Horrible! Rude!" She harrumphed. "No manners at all! Did you listen to him, Wei? Why is he always so mean?"
Wei stared at her and softly chuckled.
She gasped. "Why are you laughing?"
He pinched her cheek and kissed them. "Because you look cute when you pout."
"Y-you...you flirt even when I am angry?"
"Because you are always so pretty," he smiled. "Especially your puffed up cheeks."
She blushed.
"Aiyaaa what a cute couple~" Yang Bingqing smiled as she walked towards them. She looked at Wei and sighed. "Aish, why can't be my son like you, Wei?"
