The temptation behind gentleness Chapter 172

Half an hour later, Bai Man's buttocks sank, and she collapsed on top of Su Fan, completely limp. Bai Man was satisfied. "Auntie, do you feel good?" Su Fan asked with a smile, reaching out to touch Bai Man's hair. But Bai Man pushed away Su Fan's hand. Bai Man rolled off and lay on the other side of the bed. "If there's nothing else, you can go." Su Fan was taken aback by Bai Man's sudden coldness. A sneer appeared on Bai Man's face as she spoke contemptuously. "What, you don't think that just because I pleasured you orally last night, I've fallen in love with you, do you?" "Hmph, don't underestimate me. Even if my family fell on hard times, I'm still someone you could never aspire to be with." "You'll always be a country bumpkin, and that will never change." "Last night, I merely used you to relieve some stress, that's all, understand?" Su Fan's expression turned colder upon hearing this. He had thought Bai Man had changed, and even felt sorry for her circumstances. But it turned out this was how Bai Man saw him. He was nothing more than Bai Man's plaything. He really was ridiculous, feeling pity for such a woman. No wonder, many times just now Bai Man was on the edge of losing control, but she never let him enter her fully. It turned out she disdained him, looked down on him. "Alright, I get it. You won't have to worry about me fussing over whether you live or die ever again." Su Fan rolled off the bed, washed up briefly, then left for the hospital. He truly felt heartbroken. His kind intentions were met with such a result; he was really too sentimental. After Su Fan left, Bai Man began to feel some regret. But soon, her expression hardened. "I, I absolutely cannot be looked down upon by anyone, anyone." Yes, she who came from a noble birth naturally had an exceedingly strong sense of pride. Hailing from a distinguished family that had now fallen, her biggest fear was being looked down upon. Last night, caught up in her emotions, she had shown her vulnerable side in front of Su Fan. Upon waking up sober, she firmly believed she had to be like a hedgehog, cautiously protecting herself. The First City Hospital. The gynecology department morning meeting scene. Director Liu Ye was holding a morning meeting for everyone. Wu Miao didn't attend the meeting, as she had taken leave for the day. Sun Rui hadn't been to school for several days, and although she had returned home yesterday, there was still a need for her parents to go to the school and communicate with the teachers, to plead on her behalf. An uninvited guest walked in. It was Sun Zhigang, the head of the administrative department. Sun Zhigang's gaze swept around the room, his face full of smiles, seeming very pleased with himself. "Director Liu, it's already half-past eight. Su Fan hasn't arrived yet, he is thirty minutes late. He just started working and after treating a few patients, he's acting high and mighty. That's not good for a young man. You really should take him down a peg." Sun Zhigang's attitude annoyed Liu Ye, but since Sun Zhigang was the head of the administrative department and attendance was within his purview, Liu Ye couldn't say much. He only made a reluctant explanation. "It's only been a few days since Su Fan started work. He's not familiar with the road conditions yet. Maybe he's stuck in a traffic jam. I'll give him a call and ask." "Hehe, Director Liu, you don't have to call. He won't answer. If you want to find him, you probably need to go to the morgue. Maybe you'll find his body there." At that moment, a chilling voice came from the doorway. The person walked in and stood behind Sun Zhigang. Seeing that person, Liu Ye and the colleagues in the office were all surprised.
