Chapter 213: The devil’s ugly side

Xie Mulan folded her arms and leaned back on the chair. "That’s very rude, you know."

"I don’t care."

"Not just towards me but towards Uncle Cheng as well. He sounded very hopeful when he asked me to meet you."

"He won’t feel hurt. Doctors’ feelings are pretty much dead."

"Doctors are also humans."

"Not the Yang family."

Xie Mulan said, "I am genuinely interested in you."

"So are many other women."

"Ugh, please," she rolled her eyes, "Don’t compare me to those pesky socialites. I don’t even go to their parties."

"Same here."

"Doesn’t that mean we match at least in some sense?" She smiled.

"Not necessarily. It only means that your brain is functioning."

"You like people with a functioning brain."

"Not enough to get married."

"We can at least try getting to know each other for some time. Our fathers also know each other."

"My father knows many other fathers. Should I marry all their daughters?" He sneered.

Xie Mulan burst into laughter. "You certainly have a way with words."

"Can I leave?"

"Why are you in such a hurry?"

"I have things to do."

"I have things to do too. I am a CEO."

"Then why are we here wasting our time?"

"Because Dr. Yang," she leaned forward, "I am thinking of marriage prospects and I feel that we will be a good match. We both belong to well to do families, have great careers and our worlds are in the same sphere."

"You are talking as if you are striking a deal."

"Marriage is a deal, not a fairy tale. What, are you looking for a dreamy love marriage?"

"Don’t make me puke."

"Hence proved," she chuckled.

"Can I leave?"

Xie Mulan sighed. "Is the temper showing because of the threat to your medical license?"

His eyes narrowed.

"Why are you looking at me like that? You have caused quite a stir with the teenager’s case. Even though my working field is different to yours, I am still aware of the latest news. Though that cop...what was her name again?" She furrowed her brows trying to remember.

"Song Jia."

Xie Mulan was surprised. "You know a woman’s name?"

He said nothing.

"Yes, Song Jia. Though she is being interrogated, you aren’t out of danger so easily either.

"I would like to know who can bring this ’danger’ to me," Mingshen mockingly smiled.

"Then why do you sound so impatient if everything is under your control?"

Mingshen only stared at her, not knowing the answer himself. Nothing ever much bothered him but these past few days had been irritable to him like hell.

"Oh, I know," Xie Mulan beamed. "How about you play some games? My company develops some great games. It can take your mind off all the overloading."

"I am not a kid."

"There are games for adults as well. Wait, I will quickly show you one."

Mingshen’s mouth twitched.

"It will just take a minute to check. Don’t be such a spoilsport. We can have some good time as reasonable adults. Or is it too difficult for you to be reasonable?"

His gaze darkened.

She slid her phone on the table and said, "Try it."

Mingshen took a bored look at the flashing screen. But his attention soon focused on the game. One would think that the game might have really impressed him.

But Mingshen was staring at the brand’s logo at the very bottom of the game.

"Quantum Games?"

"Yup," then she frowned. "Why is there a question mark on your face? Wait...you do know that I am the CEO of Quantum Games, right?"

Mingshen stared at the game in silence.

"Ah!" She was in disbelief. "I cannot believe you didn’t even know this simple fact about me. I know you aren’t interested in the human population in general, but isn’t this too much?"

Mingshen’s interest was definitely piqued, but he kept it to himself. Now that he faintly remembered, Yang Cheng had indeed mentioned about Quantum Games before but he hadn’t paid much attention to it.

"I guess it does feel like a good idea to get to know you."

She looked surprised. "What changed your mind?"

"I have some young bloods working in my lab who love these silly games."

"The games are not silly. They can be played at any age."

He shrugged. His phone rang with a buzz and he felt annoyed. It was Bojing. He thought that it could be related to Zexi and the investigation so he stepped out.

"What?"

"Boooossss!!!"

Bojing’s panic-stricken voice almost burst his eardrums. "Quiet! What’s wrong?"

"I-It’s terrible!"

"Your definition of terrible and my definition of terrible are very different so I won’t sweat it," he grimaced.

"It’s about sis Jia!"

His eyes narrowed. "What about Spicy?"

"Y-you know how her case w-was going to be heard in the c-court next month, right?"

"I have a good memory, Assistant Lu. So come to the main point," he gritted his teeth.

"B-But it’s bad now! I just came t-to know from B-Bro Huojin that the case’s date has been preponed to tomorrow!"

"What the hell?"

"Y-yes and f-from his tone, it f-felt like getting sis free from the case will be..."

"...Impossible?" Mingshen’s expression was frigid and deadly.

"A-and it’s not over, Boss! Y-you have also gotten summons to c-come to the Medical Association tomorrow!"

Getting Jia’s case preponed to the same day as Mingshen’s summon to the Medical Association meant only one thing for him. In no way was it a coincidence.

That She wants to completely cut us out huh...The last link to investigate this gang.

Suddenly, Mingshen burst into laughter. He laughed hard as if he was watching some standup comedy show.

"B-Boss, how can you l-laugh in such a situation!?" Bojing cried.

"You know assistant, I was being very very patient all this time. I was doing things by the books only because of that damn cooperation contract. But if somebody will keep poking me like this, then they will only see my ugly side."
