Chapter 170: The 170th Man and Woman

Chapter 170

Xiao ShanJie suddenly flashed a coquettish smile and playfully poked Huo Jian Sheng's chest with a skewer. "Since everyone outside is spreading rumors that we're gay, why don't we just embrace it and make it true?" Nnêw n0vel chapters are published at novelhall.com

With that, she lunged towards Huo Jian Sheng. If it weren't for his quick reflexes, Xiao ShanJie would have tackled him to the ground.

"Stop disgusting me like that. If you keep it up, I won't come to accompany you on night shifts anymore. You'll have to cry alone with ghosts," Huo Jian Sheng retorted.

"No way!" Xiao ShanJie quickly put on a smile and said, "Can't I even joke with you? You're such a killjoy!"

"Come on, let's eat already. Food can't shut your mouth!" Huo Jian Sheng urged.

"Hmph! You know very well that I don't like barbecue, yet you bought it for me. You have no conscience!" Xiao ShanJie gave Huo Jian Sheng a disdainful look.

Huo Jian Sheng burst into laughter. "If you don't like it, I'll eat it for you."

"No, I remember you didn't like barbecue either. When did your taste change?" Xiao ShanJie looked at Huo Jian Sheng with surprise as he saw him smearing oil all over his mouth.

"I'm not telling you!" Huo Jian Sheng chuckled. "Hmm, it's really delicious. Do you want more tomorrow night? I'll bring it for you again."

"You killjoy!" Xiao ShanJie huffed and took a forceful bite of the skewer, chewing vigorously.

Xiao ShanJie had fair skin, delicate features, and a feminine appearance. He spoke softly and because Huo Jian Sheng often kept him company during night shifts, people at the hospital assumed they were in a gay relationship.

But in reality, Xiao ShanJie wasn't fragile like glass. It was just his appearance that made him seem effeminate, which didn't attract girls.

He used to have a crush on a girl and told Huo Jian Sheng about it. Huo Jian Sheng encouraged him to confess to her, but he was ridiculed for his effeminate demeanor.

Since then, he had been afraid to approach women.

As for Huo Jian Sheng, he had been deeply hurt by his first love and couldn't move on. That's why, until now, he had no intention of getting married.

Because they spent a lot of time together, everyone misunderstood their relationship. It wasn't just their friends who misunderstood, even their families misunderstood.

However, Huo Jian Sheng had no intention of explaining. He didn't mind the misunderstandings because it meant no woman would bother him, saving him a lot of trouble.

Even his family had mentioned it to him, suggesting that he find a woman and have a child.

When his father said this to him as a father, he knew that everyone had misunderstood. But he didn't explain. Regardless of whether he was fragile or not, he didn't want to get married anymore. He had no intention of following his father's advice and casually finding a woman to have a child with.
