Chapter 105 Terrifying Woman
Seeing everyone scrambling for the person, Wu Cunzhong got irritated.
Before, no one showed such eagerness, but now everyone's showing their true colors and getting all excited. What's more infuriating is that they're poaching right in front of me. Who can tolerate this?
Wu Cunzhong forcefully coughed and said, "What's all this noise about? Fang Yu is part of our Huada Hospital, who dares to have any other ideas?! Go about your own business!"
"..."
As the Dean, Wu Cunzhong also held a certain status in the Xinglin Realm and, with his age, had seniority.
Ordinary people really had to take his feelings into account.
...
Meanwhile, Fang Yu suddenly felt a surge of Inner Essence emerge from his Dantian.
He couldn't help but find it strange, the Divine Dragon Technique was really miraculous. Last time after treating a patient, I made a breakthrough to the Fourth Layer. This time, I used nearly half of my Inner Essence and just like last time, it regenerated.
"Peipei, I'm tired, I'll head back first."
"Okay." Xu Zhaopei became incredibly obedient. She even intentionally stayed close, wanting to support Fang Yu in case he would fall.
Wu Cunzhong called out loudly, "Fang Yu is tired, the rest of you, keep a close eye here, the others can leave. If anything happens, notify me immediately."
"Understood, Dean Wu!"
...
Fang Yu and Xu Zhaopei returned to Huada Hospital. Without going to the duty room, Xu Zhaopei let him go straight back to the dormitory to rest.
Meanwhile, the news of Fang Yu using Golden Needle to save people was spreading through the medical community. Because it was an infectious disease issue, the situation was serious; the authorities kept it secret, not allowing the media and the public to know. In other words, Fang Yu's name was now causing a sensation in the Xinglin Realm.
Inside the dormitory.
Fang Yu locked the door.
He closed his eyes for Cultivation.
As expected, with each breath he took, his Inner Essence gradually became fuller.
For eight years, without a single pause.
The monotonous and tedious Cultivation had provided him with a profound foundation. Every breath made it very easy for him to enter the state.
Unknowingly.
A faint golden light began to shine.
Fang Yu's body once again floated in the air.
...
Three hours passed.
Fang Yu was still in Cultivation.
Knock knock—
Suddenly, a knock at the door was heard. His keen senses immediately made him open his eyes.
Fang Yu stopped breathing and floated down.
He felt the Inner Essence within his body; it had already recovered by a large portion.
"Who is it?"
"It's me."
Fang Yu was startled.
He couldn't tell who it was from the voice, but since they replied this way, it must be someone he knew.
He got out of bed, opened the door, and saw...
Standing at the door was a woman wearing a trench coat... not someone else, it was the beautiful woman he encountered at the racecourse while with Jiang Xiaoxiao, Bai Manru.
Bai Manru showed her white teeth and smiled gently, "Long time no see."
"Is it you?" Fang Yu frowned slightly.
This made Fang Yu take another look at her.
"We're friends after all. I heard you went to the quarantine area to treat patients, so I came to check on you," Bai Manru said with a smile.
"Heh, I only met you once, how can we be friends?" Fang Yu rolled his eyes and said.
"I've introduced myself to you before, that makes us friends..." Bai Manru stuck her head through the door into the dormitory, "So, you're not welcoming me?"
As she spoke, she already slipped inside.
"How did you, an outsider, know about my assignment in the quarantine area?" Fang Yu also entered the dormitory.
Bai Manru giggled.
"You're really not romantic... You won against me at the racecourse which caught my attention... I have no other strength but being bold and direct! I won't beat around the bush with you—I think you're quite outstanding, just my type, we could consider getting together."
"—"
Fang Yu was speechless.
This was the first time he'd come across such a bold and direct woman.
"You're joking, right?" Fang Yu said.
"No joke, I can prove it to you right now." Bai Manru approached Fang Yu as she spoke.
"—"
This woman refreshed Fang Yu's worldview once more.
This made Fang Yu involuntarily take a step back.
He was a normal man; faced with this situation, he couldn't stay as calm as a monk.
"Look how nervous you are..." Bai Manru's eyes twinkled, "I love greenhorns like you most."
"Greenhorn?"
"You're so nervous." Bai Manru chuckled.
"—"
Fang Yu rolled his eyes.
This woman really had no boundaries.
"I warn you!" Fang Yu advanced instead of retreating!
"Oh! I'm eager for that…" Bai Manru raised her hand, "Do you think I'm pretty?"
"Pretty."
Fang Yu raised his hand, pushing her arm away, "Don't you think things are moving a bit too fast?"
Fang Yu chuckled.
The eager attitude of Bai Manru instead made him lose interest.
"Tell me, what's your real purpose?"
On hearing this, Bai Manru showed a brief moment of surprise, fleeting and gone.
She wasn't flustered at all and giggled, "How could you think so lowly of me?"
Just then—
Click!
The door opened.
Both of them were stunned, turning to look outside.
Standing at the door was Xu Zhaopei, holding a cup of hot water, looking as stunned as a wooden chicken. Immediately afterward, a wild, uncontrollable force began brewing inside her—
How long has it been since she left, and he's already cozying up with another? So close, too! And exchanging flirtatious looks!
But, Xu Zhaopei forcefully suppressed her fury.
Before she could speak, Bai Manru indifferently asked, "Who are you?"
"Get lost! I...am Xu Zhaopei, Fang Yu's fiancée!"
"Fiancée?"
"Seductress, scram!"
Surprisingly, Bai Manru didn't get angry at all but smiled, spread her hands, moved to the door, looked back, and said, "…whenever you start missing me, come find me; I'll always welcome you..."
Once Bai Manru left.
Xu Zhaopei glared and cursed, "Shameless!"
Fang Yu was speechless.
This situation was not so different from the time Jiang Xiaoxiao scolded Bai Manru.
"I see you're in good spirits; you probably don't need the water," Xu Zhaopei said as she held the hot water and left.
"Wait! I'm actually thirsty!"
"Pour it yourself."
Xu Zhaopei was about to leave when she stopped and seemed to remember something, then said, "Oh right, Jiang Wei came to look for you, I said you were busy; she's got something for you."
