Chapter 562 - Pei Ge... Pei Ge... you have a nosebleed.

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

In the morning of the next day, the first thing she did when she woke up was to reach for her phone to look at the time.

Noting that it was still early, she climbed out of bed, washed, and dressed herself in record speed.

She was clearly in her own house, yet she had to tiptoe out of her room like a thief.

After leaving the confines of her room, she carefully scoured her surroundings, especially the room next to hers as it belonged to the man. Noting that the mahogany door was tightly shut, she audibly heaved a sigh of relief and then carefully made her way downstairs.

Ding dong!

The doorbell rang just as she reached the living room.

The doorbell was already loud enough as it was, yet it sounded much louder this early in the morning when everything was still and quiet.

The moment she heard the ringing of the doorbell, her clear and bright eyes widened in absolute panic and fright.

She turned to peek upstairs on reflex, and when she saw that there was no sign of movement there, she made a dash for the porch.

“Sister Ge Ge, why did you make me come so early today? I was still sleeping when you called!”

Li Qi smiled at her brightly in greeting the moment she opened the door.

“Let’s quickly leave! Quickly leave!”

She practically pushed him out of the door as she fled from the house, as though a scary creature were hot on her heels.

“Aye? Sister Ge Ge, what’s wrong? Why are you in such a rush—”

Bang! His voice disappeared along with the closing of the door.

At this moment, he appeared next to the second floor’s balustrade. Standing at the stairs’ landing, he eyed the tightly shut door with a dark face.

“Pei Ge...”

That d*mn woman, is she hiding from me?! Great! Just great!

I never knew that I, Ji Ziming, was this unwelcome!

A light flashed past his obsidian eyes. His gaze was so scary one would have a hard time meeting his eyes.

...

“Sister Ge Ge, why are you in such a rush?”

The chauffeur eyed her curiously as he jogged alongside her.

She only stayed mum, though, and merely got inside the car.

“Haa...”

She heaved a sigh of relief once she was safely seated inside the car.

Fortunately, that annoying fellow is still not awake. Imagine how awkward it’d be if we were to encounter each other now after yesterday’s incident? she bitterly mumbled to herself.

That was right! She had gotten up so early in the morning and navigated inside the house like a thief all due to her not wanting to meet the man.

If not for that dog-sh*t contract, I would’ve been gone from his sight a long time ago!

The beguiling and heart-pounding memories of yesterday made her so abashed she wanted to dig a hole somewhere and crawl into it!

For the rest of last night, images of what he had done to her would surface in her mind whenever she closed her eyes.

Alongside those was the reminder of her embarrassing reactions last night...

“Drinking creates trouble! Drinking creates trouble!” She murmured this incessantly while sitting in the backseat.

In the driver’s seat, the chauffeur was filled with curiosity the moment he heard her murmuring.

What’s wrong with Sister Ge Ge? She’s acting really strange today.

“Ya! Sister Ge Ge, are you okay? Why is your face so red? Are you having a fever?” He frantically faced backward when he caught sight of her red cheeks from the rearview mirror.

“I’m fine! just feeling a little hot,” she answered abashedly.

“Ah, Sister Ge Ge! You have a nosebleed!” Spotting her nosebleed, he started to panic.

He had really come to like this sister, who was only slightly older than him, after spending some time with her. Still, her being his big boss’s girlfriend was sufficient to make him feel flustered!

“I’m good; I’m good. Just a little heaty.” She subconsciously lifted her hand to her nose, only for it to come out stained with blood.

Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah! Please let me off! Stop appearing in my mind!

I’m really not a pervert! Plus, I’m not that desperate yet!

She screamed those inside her, on the verge of breaking down.

How could he remain calm when her nose incessantly bled and her cheeks reddened further, though? How could he believe her claim of being just heaty?

Hence, after starting the car’s engine, he astutely drove them to the nearest hospital.

She was busy wiping her nose with tissue, so she failed to notice that the route they were taking was not the one leading to Bauhinia Court.

She only realized this fact once the car stopped and reckoned that her driver had brought her to the wrong place.

“Li Qi, we are at the wrong place.”

She got out of the car and blinked in shock at the slightly rundown hospital before her.

“We’re not, Sister Ge Ge! Look; your nose is still bleeding! Let’s hurry inside to get a queue number for a diagnosis!” he seriously urged, concerned.

The corner of her lips twitched at this.

I... am truly just feeling stuffy... Fine, I admit. My nosebleed is due to those PG-13 images on my head.

Wu wu wu. Other people forget their deeds after they drink. Why is it that, not only do I remember it, the memory, which is now deeply ingrained in my mind, even resurfaces occasionally!

“Li Qi... I am really fine.” She wiped her nosebleed away, feeling a little helpless inside.

Still, soon enough, she knew that she had no way out of this...

“What’s wrong? Why are you suddenly having a nosebleed?”

She saw Ji Ziming approach her with a frown, and her nose’s bleeding got worse.

He stared at the woman, whose nose was bleeding, and all his anger earlier instantly turned into worry.

“I’m okay...” She tried to explain herself and shot this CEO who was the root of her predicament.

“Stop fooling around! Follow me!” With that said, he forcefully dragged her into the hospital by the hand.

She could only enter the rundown hospital despite knowing that she was totally fine.

After undergoing several medical exams, she was quickly ushered into the doctor’s office by the man.

“Have you done the tests?”

The doctor was quite old with some grey hair.

“Yes, everything’s done.”

Compared the ‘patient’, he was clearly more anxious as he responded to the doctor himself before he quickly passed over the results of the body checkup.

Watching the doctor pore through the reports seriously, she could not help muttering inside, I’m totally fine. Look; the doctor is about to tell us that!

While she was confidently thinking that the results would back her up, the doctor suddenly peered at her with a stern face.

“These test results...”
