The Beautiful CEO's Personal Mad Doctor

Chapter 475: Chapter 475: Zhixuan, I’ve Got the Invitation

Liu Ruyan snorted. ”You’d better get out of Gui City, and fast! If President Pei finds out there’s a fly buzzing around Zhixuan, he’ll definitely break your legs.”

”Heh...”

Cheng Yuan gave a cold laugh, not bothering to engage with Liu Ruyan.

CLICK. Liu Ruyan opened the passenger-side door and said coldly, ”Get in the front. If anyone we know sees us, just say you’re a distant relative of mine. Absolutely do not mention your connection to Zhixuan. This is for your own good.”

Cheng Yuan rolled his eyes, speechless. ’This Liu Ruyan... How can she be so full of herself?’

However, Cheng Yuan didn’t insist on sitting in the back and got into the passenger seat.

Liu Ruyan got in the car and asked flatly, ”Cheng Yuan, where are you staying? I’ll drop you off first.”

Before Cheng Yuan could answer, He Zhixuan cut in from the back seat, ”Cheng Yuan isn’t going to his hotel yet. Let’s go to Lanxin Bar and have a few drinks.”

”Fine.”

Liu Ruyan started the car and headed straight for the bar street in Gui City’s new district.

「Meanwhile.」

A coffee-colored Bentley Mulsanne slowly pulled up to Villa 17 at Hyde Court.

A young man with an upright posture got out of the car. He wore a tailored suit, and his hair was impeccably styled. He looked like an elite professional at first glance.

This young man was He Zhixuan’s fiancé—Pei Yuanbin.

After getting out of the car, Pei Yuanbin strode confidently toward Villa 17.

At the entrance to Villa 17, another young man had just rung the doorbell and was waiting with a hint of anxiety.

This young man was Zhang Jian, Divine Doctor Xue’s assistant.

Pei Yuanbin asked with a hint of wariness, ”Who are you? What are you doing here?”

Zhang Jian answered truthfully, ”I’m Divine Doctor Xue’s assistant. He sent me to deliver an invitation to Miss He Zhixuan.”

Pei Yuanbin’s eyes lit up. Three days ago, he had gotten a tip from Liu Ruyan that He Zhixuan wanted to watch the duel between Divine Doctor Jiang and Park Hao.

So, Pei Yuanbin had pulled a lot of strings to get in touch with Divine Doctor Xue.

At the time, Divine Doctor Xue hadn’t given a definite answer, only saying he would look into it.

Pei Yuanbin had thought it was a lost cause.

He never expected Divine Doctor Xue to come through like this, having the invitation delivered right to the door.

Pei Yuanbin extended his hand with a beaming smile. ”I’m Pei Yuanbin. Zhixuan is my fiancée. You can just give the invitation to me.”

”Of course, Mr. Pei. Please take the invitation.”

Pei Yuanbin’s image and demeanor were so impressive, and he had just stepped out of a Bentley. Zhang Jian didn’t doubt his words for a second and handed the invitation directly to him.

However, Zhang Jian was still cautious.

He watched Pei Yuanbin enter Villa 17, only turning to leave after he was inside.

After getting the invitation, Pei Yuanbin was ecstatic. ’I solved such a big problem for Zhixuan. She has to open up to me now, right?’

Pei Yuanbin took out his phone and called He Zhixuan, but the call was immediately rejected.

The corner of Pei Yuanbin’s mouth curled up slightly. ’The harder the mountain is to conquer, the more thrilling the climb!’

Pei Yuanbin took a photo of the invitation and sent a message to Zhixuan.

”Zhixuan, I got the invitation. Call me back as soon as you see this. I want to give it to you in person.”

He Zhixuan opened the message and saw the photo of the invitation. Her heart began to pound wildly. ’I can’t believe Pei Yuanbin actually got the invitation!’

But amidst her excitement, a thought occurred to He Zhixuan. ’How did Pei Yuanbin know I wanted to go watch the duel?’

’I only told Ruyan about this!’

He Zhixuan asked, slightly displeased, ”Ruyan, why did you sell me out?”

Liu Ruyan was taken aback. ”Zhixuan, what are you talking about? How could I sell you out? I’d sell out my own parents before I’d ever sell you out!”

”Think carefully, Ruyan. I’ll give you a hint: the invitation! Does that ring a bell?”

”The invitation? How is that selling you out? I was just trying to set you up with Pei Yuanbin. After all, a premium catch like him is hard to find!”

”Ruyan, I want this to be the first and last time. If you ever take matters into your own hands again, doing things you think are for my own good, we can’t even be friends anymore.”

Hearing He Zhixuan’s words, Liu Ruyan quickly deleted the message she had just finished typing in her chat window.

”President Pei, Zhixuan and I are going to Bense Bar for a drink in a bit. Are you free to ’run into’ us?”

Liu Ruyan apologized sincerely, ”Zhixuan, I was wrong. I promise, from now on, I won’t do anything on your behalf without your permission.”

”Ruyan, when did you get so close to Pei Yuanbin?”

Liu Ruyan didn’t hide anything from He Zhixuan and answered truthfully, ”A week ago, Mr. Pei came to my law firm and hired me to handle the legal affairs for the Pei Group.”

”Ruyan, I won’t interfere with your work, but I need you to keep your work and personal life separate. Can you do that?”

”Okay...”

He Zhixuan replied to Pei Yuanbin’s message: ”Mr. Pei, thank you for the kind gesture, but my boyfriend will get me an invitation. I’ve already made my position clear. We are not a good match. Please don’t waste any more of your time on me.”

’Boyfriend?’

Pei Yuanbin grew anxious and quickly sent back a message.

”He Zhixuan! Our families arranged our engagement! Are you trying to cuckold me?”

”Mr. Pei, our Dragon Country now advocates for the freedom of marriage and doesn’t recognize arranged marriages. Besides, my uncle is not my father. His agreement with your family is invalid. I have no relationship with you, so how could I possibly be cuckolding you?”

After sending the message, He Zhixuan immediately blocked Pei Yuanbin.

Two minutes later, He Zhixuan’s phone rang again. This time, it was a call from her uncle.

He Zhixuan was dead set on breaking off the engagement, so she rejected the call.

Soon, a threatening text message from her uncle arrived.

”He Zhixuan, you think you’ve grown wings now, is that it? Believe it or not, I can kick you out of the family! Believe it or not, I can shut down your clinic!”

”Do whatever you want! I’d rather be a waitress in a bar than marry Pei Yuanbin!”

After replying, He Zhixuan, now in a reckless mood, shut her phone off completely.

Cheng Yuan didn’t understand the full situation, so he didn’t venture an opinion.

Liu Ruyan, however, frowned deeply. ’Zhixuan has always been so cautious. Why is she being so impulsive and rash today?’

’It’s all because of this Cheng guy!’

Liu Ruyan turned and shot Cheng Yuan a vicious glare, secretly making a resolution. ’I have to watch this Cheng guy like a hawk. I absolutely cannot let him lead Zhixuan astray!’

After her confrontation with her uncle, He Zhixuan gradually calmed down, and a deep sense of powerlessness washed over her.

’I was too impulsive just now. I offended my uncle without even thinking of a backup plan.’

’What am I going to do if he takes back the clinic?’

’To work at a top-tier hospital, I’d need at least a master’s degree. With just my bachelor’s, I’d have a hard time finding a job even in a small town hospital.’

’Forget it. I’m not going to think about it anymore!’

’Either way, I’ve set my heart on Cheng Yuan!’

’Since Cheng Yuan isn’t willing to stay in Gui City for me, then I’ll just follow him!’

’Wherever Cheng Yuan goes, I’ll go!’

’At worst, I’ll continue my studies and get a master’s or even a doctorate. I refuse to believe I won’t be able to find a decent job then.’
