Chapter 227 – We will book you through the VVIP passageway (3)
Huo Sishen didn’t even bother giving him a look. Picking up his fork, he said, “Idiot.”
Qin Ruhai, “Shoot. Shoot. Shoot!”
He immediately gave Gu Shishi a very peculiar look.
What was it that was able to transform a psychotic demon? And made him radiate the disgusting smell of being in love?!
Hot dang!
This was the girl that Huo Sishen has been sending one red packet a day, right?!
This newest fiancée was pretty mighty then!
Siyi gave Qin Ruhai a very sympathetic look from afar.
He knew that Dr. Qin’s ego would be bruised.
Ever since the arrival of Miss Gu, the boss’s insomnia and germophobic tendency had both been improved greatly.
What a shame.
Dr. Qin had been working on it for years with no result.
And allegedly he came from a line of imperial doctors. That was some faceslapping…
[Beep! Received fondness from Qin Ruhai!]
Gu Shishi, “? ? ?”
Nobody said a word over the dinner table.
Gu Shishi was trying to give the two men room to talk.
Qin Ruhai, on the other hand, was being respectful of Huo Sishen’s germophobic tendency and observed the “no talking over meals” rule to avoid his spittle from hitting the plates and aggravating Huo Sishen.
Huo Sishen put down his fork when he was done eating.
Qin Ruhai’s eyes lit up. “So when will you be coming for your physical?”
Huo Sishen gave him a look.
Qin Ruhai did not give up. “Take Miss Gu with you.”
Huo Sishen paused for a little.
“Me?”
Gu Shishi, too, was a little surprised. She looked over at Boss Huo, almost a little worried.
Could she go with?
Would the boss be willing to share the status of his physical wellness with her?
What Qin Ruhai said after that was very unexpected.
“Miss Gu had only had physical examinations for school and work as a formality in the past. I trust that you have never had a thorough physical before, am I right?” said Qin Ruhai solemnly.
“You are 22 years old now. I suggest you have a physical as soon as possible. For the sake of prevention and nourishing, we can set up plans for your food intake and exercise regimes.
“Are you afraid of the needles, Miss Gu?”
Qin Ruhai cocked his head as he looked at Gu Shishi.
Gu Shishi paused for a little.
“No, I…”
She was just going to say that she wasn’t when she noticed that Qin Ruhai was blinking at her madly.
A crazy idea flashed through her mind.
Could it be that… the boss was afraid of the needle, which was why he was trying to avoid the physical?
She stopped herself half way through and said, instead, “I don’t like the needles. I… am very afraid of it. I might be…”
She sneaked a look at the boss’s tightened face.
“Very, very nervous.”
Qin Ruhai smiled and turned to look at the one who refused to go into the clinic.
“Miss Gu, you need someone to accompany you, right?
“It must be scary going to an unfamiliar place for a physical examination. You will need to have a fasting blood drawn as well. What if you pass out from low blood sugar? Do you have a friend who can accompany you….?”
Huo Sishen’s breathing visibly paused for a brief moment.
“This weekend.”
His voice was unusually low.
“She’ll come with me.”
Qin Ruhai sat down immediately.
And smiled complacently.
“Okay! I’ll book the VVIP passageway for you!”
Following that, Qin Ruhai praised Gu Shishi’s cooking nonstop.
Something about her being “the wife that every man wants”, or “the modern day version of the snail girl from Nana Korobi Ya Oki”, or “a limited edition beauty that should be treasured”… to a point that Gu Shishi was blushing.
Finally, Huo Sishen’s black eyes casted coldly onto Qin Ruhai.
“Shut up.”
Qin Ruhai, “……”
This ungrateful man!
Huo Sishen waited for Gu Shishi to stand up and take away all the dishes before he lowered his eyes.
He picked up his wine glass and sloshed it around.
“I seem to recall that you have a younger sister.”
“…What did you mean by ‘seem to recall’?”
Qin Ruhai’s handsome face twitched.
“Your older sister is back in town?”
Huo Sishen carried on with the topic.
Qin Ruhai paused for a little. “She returned over six months ago. Why do you ask?”
Bringing that up made him angry.
Even the golden rimmed spectacles failed to conceal the anger in his eyes.
“That rubbish phoenix man never even come to check on her once.”
Huo Sishen pursed his lips.
He was not interested in the matters of someone else’s household.
He glanced over at the person who was busying herself in the kitchen and said, “Friend me.”
Qin Ruhai, “? ! !”
