Chapter 2219 - 3: One-Night Stand Shen (3)

Shen You, "..."

He glanced at Ye Bai, then closed his eyes, reaching for his pack of cigarettes; he groped around for a long time before he finally found it!

Clutching it in his hand, he let out a long breath—she really was a doctor, even her choice of words was that professional!

Of course he’d had it before!

Ye Bai took one look at Shen You’s expression and just casually asked, yet his reaction was so intense. "Oh, you haven’t? That’s okay, it’s fine, you don’t need to feel too much pressure—"

Shen You opened his eyes and looked at Ye Bai, his face now completely dark. "Who said I haven’t?"

Ye Bai gave him a look and said unhappily, "Then what were you putting on that hopeless expression for just now?"

Shen You, "..."

Hopeless?

The expression he’d just had was called hopeless?

Seeing that Shen You didn’t speak, Ye Bai said, "So you really haven’t? Not even once? Like, say, in the morning."

Shen You looked at Ye Bai and really couldn’t hold it in anymore.

His dignity as a man had already been completely trampled by Ye Bai.

He lit a cigarette, stood up, and went straight out to the balcony with his phone to call Huo Jinnan. "Huo, I can’t host Ye Bai anymore, hand her over to Yu Zimu."

Huo Jinnan’s gaze darkened a lot when he heard that. "What happened?"

Shen You didn’t want to say more. "Work’s been busy lately, and Xiu Ningning is about to have the baby. I still have to go to the hospital; I can’t take care of both sides."

Huo Jinnan didn’t speak for a long while.

He’d never heard Youzi mention Xiu Ningning before; this was the first time.

A few months ago, because Old Shen had brought Xiu Ningning home to rest during her pregnancy, Youzi had moved out to live on his own.

After a pause, he said in a low voice, "Ye Bai is a doctor. Isn’t it just right to have her deliver Xiu Ningning’s baby?"

Shen You let out a short laugh. "Doesn’t my family already have my brother?"

Huo Jinnan’s voice came out low and magnetic. "In terms of Medical Skills, your brother is indeed not as good as Ye Bai."

Shen You, "..."

It was the truth, but if he kept letting Ye Bai torment him like this, he was afraid he’d end up with a psychological disorder.

Thinking of Xiu Ningning, he couldn’t help but feel irritated.

If he hadn’t taken the household registration book out and, using that last time he helped Captain Dong as an excuse, given a heads-up to the person in charge of registrations, his father probably would’ve even gotten their marriage certificate done for him!

Huo Jinnan said, "Then let Ye Bai keep staying at your place."

Shen You, "..."

In all the years they’d known each other, this was the first time Huo had spoken so many sentences to him in one go!

Also, was this really for his own good?

Feeling honored and yet compelled to reflect, he said, "Huo, spare me, okay?"

Huo Jinnan heard him say it to this extent, paused, then said in a low voice, "Do as you like, then."

After hanging up, he called Ye Bai. "What’s going on with Shen You?"

Ye Bai shot an annoyed glance at Shen You. "His father asked me to take a look at him. I probably touched a sore spot."

Huo Jinnan, "..."

Shen You, "..."

He had just come in from the balcony when he heard what Ye Bai said.

He looked over at Ye Bai, his gaze instantly turning very unfriendly.

Ye Bai froze; she hadn’t realized his voice had carried back in. "He... he just came in. I’ll hang up first."

It felt like she’d been talking smack about someone behind their back; her heart felt oddly guilty.

Huo Jinnan, "..."

He held his phone in silence and listened as the call was cut off.

Seeing Xiaoqi walking toward him, he stood up and headed straight for the terrace, closing the door behind him as he went. Then he called Old Shen. "Uncle, Youzi seems to have some kind of psychological barrier. He’s not too willing to let Ye Bai examine him."

He was worried Ye Bai would drive Shen You crazy.

Shen Le said, "Okay, I got it."
