Dressed as a Man, I Became Tycoon’s Sweetheart

Chapter 188: Chapter 188 Strawberry Cake

Pang Kai volunteered to go to Ye Xian’s side, only to be met with Bo Tingshen’s icy glare.

Pang Kai was frozen in place: “…” CEO, what does this mean?

“Go get some food.”

“Okay.”

“Wait…” As Pang Kai reached the door, Bo Tingshen called out to him, “There’s a strawberry cake in the fridge.”

Pang Kai: “?” Is the CEO remembering what Ye Xian likes to eat?!

“It hurts~”

Ye Xian was almost at her breaking point while getting the injection, hardly conscious of anything.

The family doctor pushed the syringe all the way in, and she, unable to bear the pain, snuggled against the man’s wrist, like a hurt cat seeking comfort from its owner, as if his scent could ease her pain.

Bo Tingshen watched as her dense and slightly jumbled black hair scratched against his skin, triggering clusters of tiny electric currents, his eyes gradually darkening.

His hand tightened and then released before finally reaching toward her head.

But before it could touch her, the family doctor pulled out the needle, “All done.”

Ye Xian sighed in relief as if pardoned, and when she lifted her head, she collided with Bo Tingshen’s hand, as if she’d been struck out of the blue.

She covered the cotton ball with one hand and her head with the other, looking at Bo Tingshen with a mix of grievance and accusation, “CEO, you don’t care for me, that’s one thing, but to hit me!”

That was too much!

Bo Tingshen averted his gaze slightly, awkwardly retracting his hand, and settled himself onto the ward’s sofa, legs crossed.

“Why would I be sympathetic towards you?”

“I did save your friend’s child, didn’t I?”

Bo Tingshen: “Did I ask you to save her?”

Ye Xian: “…” That’s right, he didn’t ask her to save the child. Capitalists are just cold-blooded, heartless, and selfish, even worse than a Tibetan Mastiff!

Angered, she pursed her lips, turned her head away, and decided not to speak with him any longer.

Bo Tingshen seemed entirely undisturbed, “Someone who can’t even ensure their own safety, going to save others, only adds trouble to others.”

“I clearly did ensure it! And I also saved the little girl!”

“Ensured it? What if I had arrived a step later today?”

Ye Xian: “…” Then the mulberry tree would likely have been dug up, and she would have fallen into the mastiff’s jaws.

“Then…”

Ye Xian started to speak but stopped, unwilling to admit she was wrong.

She wasn’t wrong! She saved the little girl and had been scared up in that tree for so long. She deserved no praise, fine, but why tolerate mockery and scorn? Why should she?

A wave of inexplicable grievance overwhelmed her, and Ye Xian resolutely turned her head, ignoring the heartless capitalist.

“I don’t care, the result is what counts.”

Pang Kai walked in with a plate of food, sensing that the atmosphere in the ward seemed a bit off.

The CEO looking at Ye Xian, Ye Xian… looking at the wall; the two seemed to be in a petulant mood.

“CEO, I’ve brought the snacks. Are they for Mr. Ye?”

As Pang Kai spoke, Ye Xian saw he was holding a white plate with cheese pizza, creamy milk tea, caviar crab rolls, and her favorite strawberry mousse cake. Her appetite instantly piqued, she nodded repeatedly, “Mhm, mhm, mhm!”

Bo Tingshen’s voice was cool and detached, “No, take it out and throw it to the dogs.”

Pang Kai: “…” What happened in the short time he went out to fetch something?

“Don’t!” Ye Xian turned to look at the man with an icy demeanor and suddenly realized that he had ordered Pang Kai to bring this plate of food; she had misunderstood him!

On the surface he seemed ruthless and unfeeling, but he still had a good heart, remembering she hadn’t eaten.

“CEO, I was wrong~”

Ye Xian pouted, batting her eyes at the man with a pitiful look from her mascara-laden eyes.
