Bai Wanxin was kicked out.

After that, Yu Cheng went back to his room and locked himself inside.

Wan Tong thought about his expression at that time and felt uneasy, so she knocked on his door and said, “Chengcheng?”

But no one came to open the door, so she pushed it open and walked in.

Sure enough, Yu Cheng had locked himself in the bathroom again.

His room was too empty and cold, with only a bed and a cabinet, which looked strange.

She walked around and finally sat down on the bed.

Thinking of Bai Wanxin’s words, she used her phone to browse the news online.

Several influential media websites had already taken down the news, but they couldn’t resist the hot analysis and various reposts and spread by netizens.

Yu Cheng, as a high-quality single young man on the rich list, with a high appearance value, once his photos were reposted, even people who didn’t know his identity gathered around, initially just to admire his looks, but later they couldn’t help themselves.

However, it seems that Yu Cheng is very disgusted with this rumor, and his company’s official account has come out to clarify it quickly and decisively, which has instead put the other protagonist of the rumor in an embarrassing position.

After waiting for about ten minutes, the sound of water in the bathroom finally stopped.

With the sound of the door opening, Yu Cheng’s figure appeared. He was wrapped in a bath towel around his waist, his upper body bare, and a white towel draped over his head. However, the strands of his hair were constantly dripping water onto his body.

The room was not lit, and in the light coming in from outside the window, Wan Tong could clearly see that there seemed to be red marks on his body, as if they were self-inflicted scratches, with even some blood seeping out.

“Chengcheng, what happened to you?” she suddenly spoke up.

Yu Cheng obviously didn’t expect her to be in the room, and he froze at the bathroom door. His voice also stuttered like a machine, “Tong…tong…”

He took a step back, wanting to retreat back into the bathroom, but Wan Tong had already run over and grabbed his arm, “Why did you scratch yourself like this?”

Yu Cheng wanted to pull his arm back, but Wan Tong held on tightly, so he dared not use force.

“Yu Cheng, be obedient and lie on the bed, I’ll have Grandpa Kong bring the first aid kit.”

“No need.” Yu Cheng refused.

Wan Tong stomped her feet in urgency, “No way! I have to apply medicine for you.”

Yu Cheng’s mouth twitched, but he didn’t struggle. He followed her force and sat down on the bed.

Wan Tong : “…”

Seeing his hair dripping with water, she said, “Dry your hair first, I’ll be back soon.”

Yu Cheng lightly pursed his thin lips, nodded, and hummed softly in his nose, “Mm.”

These past few days, he had taken care of her with tenderness and consideration, which now seemed a little silly and cute.

Wan Tong turned and walked out, consulting Butler Kong before taking the medicine and going upstairs.

Yu Cheng moved quickly. His hair was already dry, but he didn’t put on any clothes because he knew she was going to apply medicine.

“How did you get yourself like this?” Wan Tong looked at the scratches and bloodstains on his nails and felt her scalp tingle. There were even some old scars, but she pretended not to see them, afraid of touching upon the secrets he didn’t want to talk about.

“Accident.” Yu Cheng replied with one word.

Wan Tong glanced at his straight back and pointed to the bed, “Why don’t you lie down?”

In the next moment, Yu Cheng obediently lay down.

Wan Tong : “…”

She felt inexplicably dry-mouthed.

The man lay there, with broad shoulders and a small waist, his mermaid line faintly visible. The strong hormones permeated the spacious room.

“If it hurts, just tell me. I’ve never applied medicine for anyone before,” she said softly, dabbing some transparent ointment on her index finger, then applied it to the scratch on his abdomen.

He didn’t say anything, but the muscles of his upper body trembled.

“Does it hurt?” Wan Tong pulled back her hand and looked at him anxiously.

“Not hurt,” Yu Cheng shook his head, but his handsome face tightened.

“Oh,” Wan Tong continued to apply the medicine.

From the corner of her eye, she saw Yu Cheng’s hands at his side slowly curl up, and he even grabbed the bedsheet.

Wan Tong then realized that the atmosphere in the room was a bit ambiguous. He was dressed so little, and she was still rubbing him with medicine…

No wonder he was so nervous!

Wan Tong thought to herself as she hurriedly applied the medicine, her movements becoming a bit heavy-handed.

Initially, Yu Cheng was able to control himself, but gradually, his breathing became more rapid and fiery.

“Ah.” Wan Tong suddenly noticed a bulge in the towel, causing her to stop her actions and gasp in surprise.

Yu Cheng suddenly met her panicked gaze, also taken aback, and quickly stood up.

Wan Tong watched as he went back into the bathroom and closed the door tightly.

Yu Cheng ripped off the towel and threw it aside. Seeing his own physical response, a spark of fire flickered in his eyes, but it was mixed with intense disgust.

How could he have such a reaction at a time like this, and how could he treat her this way…

Human desires are truly too ugly.

He tightly grasped the showerhead switch, about to turn it on, but then heard a slightly anxious voice of a girl from outside the door.

“Chengcheng, don’t touch the water.”

His hand immediately stopped moving and he turned towards the direction of the door.

On the frosted glass door, her petite figure was reflected.

Wan Tong thought that Yu Cheng was shy, so she left his room after instructing him not to touch the water.

Returning to her own room, she thought about Yu Cheng’s behavior today and felt that he might have a tendency towards self-harm, otherwise why would he treat himself like that?

Previously, they had dinner promptly at six o’clock every day, but this time Wan Tong deliberately delayed until six-thirty before coming down, but she didn’t see any impatience from Yu Cheng.

So it seemed that his OCD did not include her.

She didn’t know if it was due to the stimulation of Yu Cheng’s hormones, but that night, Wan Tong dreamt of Yu Cheng.

She seemed to be placed in a furnace, her whole body burning hot, but the one with a higher temperature was Yu Cheng.

He was above her, his figure galloping, large drops of sweat falling, a hoarse voice that couldn’t be heard clearly…

Wan Tong tried hard to open her eyes, but found that her eyelids were heavy, and she could only repeat that scene over and over again.

In the eerie night, feeling the person in her arms murmuring anxiously, Yu Cheng reached out and turned on the bedside lamp.

The girl’s eyes were tightly closed, her porcelain-white face covered in blush, her small mouth slightly open as if she wanted to speak but couldn’t.

Yu Cheng gently stroked her back and called out softly in her ear, “Tongtong, don’t be afraid…”

His voice seemed to have no calming effect, but instead made the girl’s breathing even more difficult. A few words spilled out of her throat, “Yu Cheng, don’t…”

Suddenly, it felt like someone had forcefully grabbed Yu Cheng’s throat, making it difficult for him to breathe.

After a long time, the girl finally fell asleep peacefully, and Yu Cheng released her and got up from the bed.

He returned to his own room and in the bathroom, the cold water washed over his body.

It wasn’t until he felt the cold and numbness in his body that he turned off the shower and walked out.

Looking at his bed, which was pulled taut without a single wrinkle, he suddenly felt a sense of emptiness and as if a piece of his heart had been taken away.

He eventually returned to the girl’s room.

Lying on the bed, he carefully embraced her once again, but this time he did so through the covers so as not to let her feel the chill of his body.

Wan Tong couldn’t distinguish whether that night was a spring dream or a memory from the original owner, but she could feel the panic and fear in her heart at that time.

Whenever she thought of the content of that night, Wan Tong felt unsure how to face Yu Cheng.

So during the day, she looked for opportunities to go out and tried to avoid meeting Yu Cheng as much as possible to avoid any awkwardness.

Yu Cheng was very sensitive and seemed to have noticed something was wrong, so he went back to work at the company.

Ever since the rumor about him and Bai Wanxin was cleared up, there have been many posts and articles online about digging up Yu Cheng’s past.

A friend who claimed to be Yu Cheng’s household servant revealed online that he actually had severe mental illnesses such as obsessive-compulsive disorder and a mania for cleanliness that seriously affected his normal life.

This revelation was particularly well-researched, and soon people collected news about Yu Cheng in recent years.

It was found that his demands on employees’ clothing or on his business partners were almost harsh to the extreme. His social circle was very small, and he had never attended any dinners or parties. Every time he appeared in public, he was in a hurry. Sometimes his assistant was even caught spraying disinfectant spray everywhere. What was even more surprising was that a media outlet once reported that during a meeting, Yu Cheng was accidentally bumped into by a female customer who fell down and he immediately ordered his assistant to buy new shoes for him, and the cooperation reportedly fell through.

This man has good looks, a good figure, and is a wealthy man. Surprisingly, he has such a serious compulsive disorder and obsession with cleanliness, but netizens not only do not think it’s abnormal, but even find it cute.

Although Qian Le had informed the public relations department and various media outlets about it, it was still difficult to guide public opinion because there were too many people interested in President Yu.

As Qian Le watched the netizens gossiping and pairing up Yu Cheng and Bai Wanxin again, he couldn’t help but feel anxious.

Qian Le knows President Yu very well. He not only has a cleanliness obsession with his body but also with his mind.

It may have been okay before, but now that President Yu has a little baby in his hands, he is even more averse to the idea of scandals.

Moreover, these days, President Yu has not been in a good mood since returning to the company. Within two meters of him, there is a low-pressure and cold atmosphere.

Under pressure, Qian Le entered the office.

“President Yu, Bai Wanxin is here and wants to see you.” President Yu didn’t answer the internal phone, so there was no other way, he had to pass on the message in person.

After all, the Bai family has a good relationship with President Yu, and Bai Wanxin used to visit him frequently.

Before President Yu’s little treasure appeared, he also thought several times that Bai Wanxin would marry President Yu.

“Not seeing.” Yu Cheng frowned, his gaze still fixed on the computer screen.

Qian Le nodded when saw the cold and stern expression on President Yu’s face, but out of curiosity, he glanced at President Yu’s computer screen.

It was fine when he didn’t look, but as soon as he did, he choked on his own saliva and coughed violently.

President Yu, are you okay?

He had just seen a screen full of highlighted words: ‘How to prevent oneself from getting an erection?’
