Divine Doctor and His CEO Wife Chapter 45 Playing with Fire

"You want to tell you just because you asked?" Chen Xiao waved his hand impatiently. "Who do you think you are? Get out of my way."

"Fine, I’ll go," Xu Yanran said coldly, "but first, tell what you know!"

Chen Xiao’s heart skipped a beat. Has this woman figured out it was ? He certainly didn’t want to get tangled up with this lovesick girl, so he casually deflected, "Of course I know who saved you that day. It was my good buddy, Chen Yanzu. But he’s already left Yuncheng City."

"Chen Yanzu?" Xu Yanran’s heart trembled. "He’s already left Yuncheng City?"

"Duh. You think he’d stick around waiting for you to buy him dinner?" Chen Xiao’s tone grew even more impatient. "Now that you know, hurry up and scram."

"No!" Xu Yanran insisted anxiously. "You have to give his contact information. I need to get to the bottom of this! Are you sure it wasn’t Brother Liu who saved ?"

"PFFT—" Chen Xiao couldn’t help but laugh. "Your Brother Liu? My buddy is a whole head taller than him and a million tis more handso, even with his face covered. Do you really think they look like the sa person? Are you blind?"

To think I, so dashingly heroic, would be compared to soone like Liu Yitong...

Xu Yanran thought back carefully and realized Chen Xiao had a point. She looked confused. "Then why didn’t Brother Liu deny it?"

"Go ask him. Why are you asking ?"

Xu Yanran persisted, "Give his contact information!"

Chen Xiao looked at her with disdain. "You think my buddy would give a damn about a stuck-up girl like you? If I actually gave you his contact info, he’d probably cut ties with ."

Xu Yanran’s expression soured. Finally, after giving Chen Xiao a long, hard look, she turned to leave. Before she went, she left him with a final word, "Even if you won’t tell , I’ll find out on my own!"

"Good luck with that," Chen Xiao said with a shrug.

Just then, Qin Lan walked in from outside, closing the door behind her. She swayed her hips as she approached Chen Xiao. "You’re certainly living it up, aren’t you? ssing around with different won every day. It’s like you’ve completely forgotten about Qingli."

Chen Xiao smiled aningfully. "I can’t help it if I’m too charming. They’re always the ones who make the first move."

Hearing Chen Xiao emphasize "make the first move," Qin Lan was reminded of her own past entanglent with him, and her pretty face flushed. "Careful, or I’ll tattle on you to Qingli!"

"We’re in a marriage of convenience. We agreed not to interfere in each other’s lives," Chen Xiao said casually. "Go ahead and tattle. See if I care."

His attitude angered Qin Lan to the point that she snapped, "Fine! I’ll tell Qingli right now!" With that, she actually started to dial Luo Qingli’s number.

Chen Xiao moved in a flash, grabbing her hand and pressing her down against the desk. "Don’t cause trouble!"

They were pressed close together. Qin Lan’s soft chest was tight against his, and his hot breath fanned across her skin, making her body heat up uncontrollably.

"Let go!" Qin Lan struggled furiously.

"I really don’t care what she thinks, but that doesn’t an I like people making trouble for ," Chen Xiao said calmly. "You said I’m fooling around with other won. That includes you, doesn’t it?"

"I..." Qin Lan was speechless.

Chen Xiao took her phone. "How about I tell her right now that you’re hitting on your best friend’s husband?"

"You... don’t you dare!" Qin Lan tried to wrestle the phone away, but the more she struggled, the more firmly she was pinned.

A playful smile touched Chen Xiao’s lips. "Go on, here’s your chance to tattle." With that, he pressed the call button.

"You..." Qin Lan’s beautiful eyes flew wide. "Fine! Let’s just see if you’re really not afraid!"

Just then, the call connected. Luo Qingli’s curious voice ca through. "Hello? Sister Lan, what’s up?"

"Qingli, I’m at Chen—" Before she could finish, Chen Xiao covered her mouth with his hand.

He lowered his voice, his lips brushing her ear as he threatened, "A word of warning: don’t ntion . I hate trouble, and I hate being threatened even more. Don’t cross my line."

After speaking, Chen Xiao finally released her.

The mont he let go, however, Qin Lan imdiately shouted into the phone, "Qingli, I’m at Chen Xiao’s office right now! Co over, I have sothing to tell you."

Then, Qin Lan smugly hung up. "You said you weren’t afraid, didn’t you? When Qingli gets here, I’m going to tell her all about you hooking up with other won!"

Chen Xiao’s eyes turned cold. "I warned you. Don’t play with fire."

Qin Lan smiled triumphantly. "Qingli will be here any minute. Besides, this is the company office. What can you possibly do to ?"

Chen Xiao sneered but said nothing.

The next mont, Qin Lan let out a sharp cry as a chill went through her. "What... what are you doing?"

Chen Xiao gently tilted her chin up. "What else? I’m going to let you taste what it’s like to get burned playing with fire. I have no idea how soundproof this office is, so try to control yourself."

"Chen Xiao! You’re... insane!" Qin Lan was utterly panicked.

She could feel his anger flaring, more terrifying than ever before. It was a rage that felt like it could burn through everything.

Chen Xiao gave a wicked smile. "Didn’t you want Luo Qingli to know I’m involved with other won? Well, I’m just helping you out."

"I... I’m sorry," Qin Lan begged. "It was my fault, okay?"

Chen Xiao laughed. "What do you take for? A tool for you to manipulate whenever you please?"

A feeling of being completely filled washed over her, accompanied by an intense wave of dizziness and weakness...

Qin Lan felt as if the entire world was shaking violently. Even the bowl of fruit on the desk was rattling precariously.

KNOCK! KNOCK!

Suddenly, soone was at the door. "Manager Qin? I heard your voice just now. Is everything alright?"

"I’m... I’m fine..." Qin Lan bit down hard on her lip, using the last of her rational thought to answer. "I’m just discussing sothing with Vice Manager Chen. You don’t need to worry about us!"

Her hand gripped Chen Xiao’s arm tightly. She turned her head, her eyes pleading with him, but he completely ignored her. In fact... he beca even more forceful.

Qin Lan felt like her teeth would shatter from clenching them so hard. The waves of stimulation crashing through her body left her mind blank.

This is the office... if anyone finds out, I’m finished! And Qingli is on her way... how could I possibly face her if she saw this? But the most shaful thing is... in a situation like this, my body is getting more sensitive... more excited! My mind is blank, my body is wound as tight as a string. There’s only one thought in my head right now: I absolutely cannot make a sound. Not even if it kills !

Chen Xiao sneered inwardly. This woman... her body is far more honest than her mouth.

Suddenly, Luo Qingli’s voice ca from outside. "Sister Lan, are you in there? I’m coming in!"

The shock of her voice nearly made Qin Lan’s heart burst from her chest. Her body betrayed her as she reached her peak, collapsing limply from the desk...

"Sister Lan? Sister Lan?" Hearing the thud from inside, Luo Qingli called out urgently, "Your voice sounds a little strange. Are you okay?"

CLICK. The doorknob turned, making a soft sound...
