Invincible Little School Doctor

Chapter 1005: Chapter 1004: The Material Woman! (5th Release)

Originally, Chen Yushan and Zhao Bingqian were actually trading cold and sarcastic barbs in the room, but as they kept talking, both started feeling aggrieved and ended up crying.

Soon after, the two comforted each other for a while, and in the end, the two adversaries began venting about Ye Haochuan’s womanizing ways together as newfound allies.

”If you two had already made up, why were one of you insisting on going shopping and the other on going to the amusement park just now? And why were you using Huang Shan to snipe at each other? This doesn’t make sense!” Ye Haochuan said, dumbfounded.

”We just wanted to test you, to see if you really treated everyone the same way!” Zhao Bingqian pouted. ”Luckily, you didn’t make us choose one over the other. Otherwise, neither of us would’ve ever spoken to you again!”

Holy crap, do they need to be this ruthless?

Ye Haochuan secretly breathed a sigh of relief—he had almost accidentally committed one of the gravest mistakes of his life.

”Oh wow, so the two of you actually teamed up to deceive me?” Ye Haochuan feigned outrage.

”Hmph, if it weren’t for your damn womanizing ways, would we sisters have had to test you like this?” Chen Yushan jabbed a finger at Ye Haochuan’s chest, snapping at him.

Alright, fine. You both make your points. I won’t argue with you two. But tonight, when we get back, just wait and see how I punish you both!

Ye Haochuan muttered in his heart.

The movie ended shortly after, and as they checked the time, dusk had already fallen. The three didn’t linger and headed straight home.

”By the way, Yushan, is the Inspection Group still investigating the Hellfire entry into the Sub-Thunder Element Dimension Realm?” Ye Haochuan suddenly remembered Long Xiaotian’s instructions and asked.

”Oh, yeah, they’re still looking into it. But the captured Hellfire members are tight-lipped, and we haven’t gotten any useful information out of them.” Chen Yushan answered.

Ye Haochuan felt a bit disappointed but refused to give up and asked, ”So not a single useful lead?”

”Actually, there is something. We discovered that several Hellfire members had entered under the guise of the Liu Family. However, the Liu Family denies this completely, saying someone is deliberately framing them. We’re currently searching for additional evidence, but haven’t found anything solid so far!”

”The Liu Family? The Liu Family among the Five Great Families?”

”Exactly!”

Ye Haochuan suddenly fell into deep thought. Logically speaking, if it were really the Liu Family’s doing, it shouldn’t have been uncovered so easily. It seems far more likely they’re being framed.

Still, even though it appeared that way, Ye Haochuan couldn’t figure out a clear angle of attack. He finally decided to focus his attention on the Liu Family. Whether they were being framed or not, there was definitely some connection to the Liu Family somehow.

Fortunately, the individuals Li Wenfeng and Huo Mengyao had arranged should be arriving soon. Once they did, Ye Haochuan would have people to put into action. At that point, investigating the Liu Family would be no trouble at all.

Having resolved that step of the puzzle, Ye Haochuan stopped obsessing over the matter and shifted his attention back to the two gorgeous women beside him.

”Alright, so, which one of you will keep me company tonight?” Ye Haochuan asked with a wicked grin.

In his mind, the two women would surely have a playful tug-of-war over who got the honor. But to his surprise, they exchanged knowing smiles and stood akimbo, declaring, ”Who said we’re keeping you company tonight? We’re sleeping together, sisters’ time! As for you, obediently sleep on the couch!”

With that said, the two women linked arms and walked into the bedroom, leaving Ye Haochuan forlorn in the living room.

What the hell?! That’s downright cruel!

No choice left, Ye Haochuan scooped up Little Lei into his arms as a consolation.

This little guy had developed an intense fascination with chomping on electrical wires ever since returning to the Long Family. After several major power outages, Long Xiaotian had specially fitted him with a high-voltage outlet to chew on for fun.

If not for Ye Haochuan’s stubborn loneliness forcing Little Lei out to keep him company, the creature wouldn’t have budged from its electric snack even for a second.

This night was destined to be an agonizing battle for Ye Haochuan’s patience...

After a speechless night, the next morning came quickly. Chen Yushan headed out early again to report to the Inspection Group. Zhao Bingqian also got up early, pulling Ye Haochuan along to go house-hunting.

She was planning to open a branch office in the Imperial Capital, and finding an office space was obviously a must. Zhao Bingqian, being well-off, wanted to outright buy a standalone office building.

The two had already toured several complexes without finding anything suitable and were begrudgingly headed to a third one at the moment.

At that moment, a heavily made-up woman approached them head-on. Her face was caked with layers of powder so thick that even a gentle breeze could likely blow some off.

Ye Haochuan didn’t plan to pay her any attention but realized she was staring fixatedly at the Little Lei in Zhao Bingqian’s arms, her eyes brimming with greed.

From the very first glimpse Zhao Bingqian had of Little Lei, she’d been completely smitten with its fluffy appearance and insisted on carrying it around.

”Hey, kid, how much for this kitten? Set a price!”

As they were about to pass each other, the heavily made-up woman suddenly darted in front of Zhao Bingqian, speaking with the tone of someone ordering around lackeys.

Her attitude and raised nose said it all—she thought of herself as the Queen of the Universe.

”Sorry, we’re not selling it!”

Ye Haochuan’s eyes filled with disgust. This kind of pompous woman was the last person he felt like engaging with at all.

”What’s the matter? Think I can’t afford it?” the woman sneered. ”Ten thousand, cash deal!”

While speaking, she deliberately flaunted the limited-edition LV bag in her hand.

Seriously? Carrying around ten thousand in cash at all times? This was absolutely screaming ”tacky nouveau riche nonsense.”

Ye Haochuan’s eyes were brimming with disdain. In this day and age, who the hell walks around with tens of thousands in cash? This woman has to be some kind of idiot, right?

”Going deaf in your old age? We said we’re not selling!” Zhao Bingqian snapped. Clearly, she was provoked.

”Oh, you silly little girl, ten thousand bucks—your cute couple wouldn’t earn that much if you both worked for a year without eating or drinking. Don’t be too greedy now, okay?”

The woman surveyed Ye Haochuan’s plain attire and instantly pegged them as fresh college grads barely scraping by during a sad little internship.

”Oh, really? What my sweet couple earns has nothing to do with you, does it?” Zhao Bingqian suddenly pouted.

For some reason, the phrase ”sweet couple” gave her a little sense of secret satisfaction.

”Hmph, you clueless fools. You think life outside of school is all about pursuing ideals, huh?” the woman said with derision. ”Let me spell it out for you—what matters most in this world is cash!”

”Money can buy everything? Looking at you, lady, you’re clearly stuck at the bottom of a money pit!” Zhao Bingqian replied scornfully. ”Let’s go, uncle. Talking to such a materialistic woman is absolutely pointless!”

”Childish!” The woman scoffed but made no attempt to step aside.

”How about this? I’ll offer you a million! It’s more than enough for you two to live comfortably in some small county for the rest of your lives. Don’t get too greedy now!” The woman’s tone carried an obvious undercurrent of threat.
