Invincible Little School Doctor

Chapter 2154: Chapter 2154: Caught in the Act?

Poof~

After transforming the eight-wing angel into powder, Xu Linglan finally couldn’t hold on and spat out a mouthful of blood, collapsing weakly.

At this moment, her face was not just pale but had already shown a tinge of earthy color.

Just as she was about to fall to the ground, a strong arm suddenly caught her, pulling her into an embrace.

”Ye Haochuan, are you alright?” Xu Linglan was surprised with a hint of delight upon seeing him.

”I’m fine! And don’t worry, you’ll be okay too!” Ye Haochuan’s breath was chaotic, clearly his injuries were not mild, but if observed carefully, his complexion was rapidly improving.

”Good to know you’re okay, good to know!” Xu Linglan forced a smile, then weakly lamented, ”It’s a pity I won’t be able to see the day the Holy See falls.”

Shattering the Holy See had been her life’s wish, and she had worked tirelessly toward it.

But she truly didn’t expect the eight-wing angel’s power to increase so much after merging with its true self, forcing her to use a mutual destruction tactic.

”What are you thinking? I said you won’t have any issues, so you won’t!” Ye Haochuan said displeased.

With that, he took out a Nine Revolutions Jade Restoration Pill, placed it near Xu Linglan’s mouth, and whispered, ”Eat it.”

Xu Linglan shook her head with a smile, ”It’s useless. The Thunder Punishment Divine Gourd is a self-destructive tactic. As you harm the enemy, you suffer backlash yourself. I know my body. No matter what miraculous elixir, it won’t help. Why waste such a hard-to-make pill?”

”You’ve got a lot of nonsense! When I tell you to eat it, just eat it, won’t you?”

Ye Haochuan showed a hint of impatience and directly forced the pill into Xu Linglan’s mouth.

Unexpectedly, Xu Linglan was also strong-minded, not allowing herself to be forced, even pretending to spit it out.

Driven by anger, Ye Haochuan, whether moved by emotion or innate desire for this woman, directly sealed her lips with his own.

The instant their lips met, Xu Linglan felt as if electrified. Her body immediately stiffened, and her expression turned dazed.

A moment later, she seemed to realize something, her face flushed with embarrassment, and she struggled frantically.

Unfortunately, she was already severely injured; she had no strength whatsoever and couldn’t push Ye Haochuan away.

”If you don’t swallow, I’ll keep kissing you!” Ye Haochuan murmured indistinctly.

Xu Linglan felt both embarrassed and furious, thinking she never imagined she’d be so disrespected before dying.

Faced with Ye Haochuan’s predicament, there was no other choice but to swallow the pill first before taking action against him.

Unexpectedly, as the pill entered her stomach, a massive medicinal power, unlike anything she had felt before, instantly spread throughout her, making all her pain vanish in a flash, instead causing a feeling akin to being in a hot spring, with each pore delighting in comfort.

”What kind of pill is this, with such amazing effects? Could it be the legendary Divine Pill Immortal Medicine?” A massive question lingered in Xu Linglan’s mind.

Moments later, she regained her senses and realized that more than half her injuries had healed.

However, when she felt the warmth still on her lips, a surge of anger rushed over her, and she pushed Ye Haochuan several meters away.

What the hell, did it have to be so forceful? Little master just saved your life, you know?

Ye Haochuan felt indignant but suddenly realized that his backward momentum was stopped by someone’s hand, quickly dissipating it into nothingness.

”I say, isn’t it too brazen to molest my wife right in front of me?” Before Ye Haochuan could turn his head, he heard a deep voice from behind.

Oh crap, caught in the act?

Ye Haochuan broke into a cold sweat, hurriedly turning to explain, ”No, it’s all a misunderstanding...”

”Misunderstanding?” The Director half-smiled, ”Do you really take me for blind? While you kissed her for over ten seconds, I could clearly count your heartbeats. You still want to quibble?”

Damn, is this guy a pervert?

Seeing his wife being kissed, yet having the leisure to count heartbeats and watching silently for over ten seconds—either he’s a fool, or he’s definitely a pervert.

Ye Haochuan’s mouth awkwardly twitched; he truly didn’t know what to say.

It’s his fault; he was so engrossed in the kiss earlier he didn’t notice being seen by this freak, leaving him no ground for argument.

”Fine, you saw it all, do whatever you want, if you want to kill me, feel free!”

Ye Haochuan spread his hands helplessly, then pointed to Xu Linglan, ”But you saw too, she had no idea, it was only my wishful thinking, don’t blame her.”

With that, Ye Haochuan gave Xu Linglan a meaningful glance.

Even though his words sounded heavy, his expression appeared quite relaxed, far from one about to face death.

His calmness wasn’t due to lack of fear but knowing Xu Linglan wouldn’t kill him.

Firstly, he had successfully refined the Twin Dragons Binding Gold Pill as a contribution. Secondly, he had just thwarted the fusion of an eight-wing angel, aiding their cause.

Thirdly, seeing how Xu Linglan had tried hard to save him, how could she allow him to die here?

With these three reasons, Ye Haochuan was nearly certain Xu Linglan would plead for him, sparing him from the Director’s wrath.

”Why so much nonsense? Are you very idle?” As expected, Xu Linglan shouted angrily at the Director.

The Director glanced at Ye Haochuan and, with a bitter smile, reluctantly shut his mouth.

Ye Haochuan felt reassured; Xu Linglan was evidently strong-minded in her marriage, seemingly deferring to the Director only to conceal her power. With her protection, his life was spared.

Before he could relish relief for a few seconds, Xu Linglan shouted again, ”Why are you standing there dumbstruck? This guy was so disrespectful to me, aren’t you going to grind his bones to dust?”

What? Isn’t this plot development a bit off?

Ye Haochuan grew anxious inside, hurriedly speaking to Xu Linglan, ”Hey, I just saved your life, you’re turning around to kill me, isn’t that biting the hand that feeds you?”

”Weren’t you just declaring so confidently that whether killed or skinned, it’s up to me? What, you’re chickening out now?” Xu Linglan sneered disdainfully.

Damn it, couldn’t she tell my feigned composure?

Ye Haochuan cursed inwardly, yet his face donned a sly smile, whispering, ”I’m thinking of you. Killing your savior would make your subordinates view you as ungrateful; who would then follow you to control the world?”

To achieve great things, you must think thrice before acting; you can’t destroy the good situation in a fit of impulse!”

”Nonsense of ungratefulness, it’s just the three of us here; who would know you saved me? Who would know you’re the one I killed?”

Xu Linglan coldly retorted, ”When you dared disrespect me, you should have anticipated this outcome. Die now!”

With that, she didn’t even seem to want to wait for someone else to act, launching a punch toward Ye Haochuan’s head.
