The CEO's Substitute Wife Is A Genius-Chapter 382: You Look Better Without Wearing It
Chapter 382: Chapter 382: You Look Better Without Wearing It
"Doctor M’s prescription leaked?" Jiang Man finally became interested, her eyebrows raised slightly, her face full of suspicion.
"Yeah, didn’t Doctor M save a cancer patient? It’s said that the prescription was leaked during that time," Chen Anna asserted seriously.
After hearing this, Jiang Man felt it was complete nonsense.
She had given the medicine to a cancer patient, but that was misunderstood gossip.
Initially, the cancer patient had voluntarily participated in a research project conducted by the International Medical Association.
Although she was only a figurehead as the president of the association, the vice president handled all the matters.
But she had put a lot of effort into this research project.
After all, it was contributing a small part to the fight against cancer for all of humanity.
The International Medical Association couldn’t possibly have leaked the secret formula, could it?
"Ugh, I’m dead tired."
"I’m dead tired."
At that moment, two more people walked into the shop.
Wu Yingfan said something, and Shaye followed by mimicking his words in her broken Chinese.
The shop owner brought over the sweet soup, and Wu Yingfan picked up a cup. "Can I drink this first?"
"Go ahead," Chen Anna laughed.
Wu Yingfan gulped down a large cup.
Shaye did the same, picking up a cup and drinking eagerly.
"How is it? Is Hong Kong fun?" Jiang Man asked the young girl with a smile.
Shaye grinned from ear to ear. "It’s really fun."
Wu Yingfan immediately switched to Thai. "I took her to see Victoria Harbor, rode the tram, walked around Mong Kok, went to Mount Taiping, damn, it’s my first time traveling like a Special Forces soldier."
"Hong Kong’s food is delicious," Shaye squinted her eyes, holding the sweet soup and smiling sweetly.
"I can’t anymore, I’m dog tired. Tomorrow I’m not going anywhere, I’ll just lie in the hotel," Wu Yingfan said in Chinese.
Hu Ming chuckled. "No worries, tomorrow Anna and I will take the little sister around."
Jiang Man’s friends were naturally also their friends.
They certainly had to play the role of good hosts.
Chen Anna didn’t say anything, still waiting on the previous topic.
"Manman, are you going to the charity dinner?"
"Yes," Jiang Man nodded.
Of course, she had to go!
Someone was using her name to swindle, she had to find this person.
"Is the little sister going too?" Chen Anna asked in English.
She wasn’t fluent in several languages, just Chinese, English, and Cantonese.
Shaye laughed, her English tinged heavily with a Thai accent.
With her joining, their conversation became very chaotic, some speaking English, some Thai.
Chen Anna and Hu Ming spoke in Cantonese, and spoke Mandarin with Jiang Man.
The shop was instantly bustling with noise.
"The beef noodles are here!"
When Hu Hao entered the shop, it got even livelier.
"Why did you bring only one serving?" Hu Ming glared at his brother.
Hu Hao placed the noodles directly in front of Jiang Man. "Sister’s special treat."
"You rascal!" Hu Ming was so irritated. "Anna and I don’t fancy it, I’ll go buy a special treat just for Anna."
"Ah? No need, I’m fasting tonight," Chen Anna quickly reached out to stop Hu Ming.
But Hu Ming was as stubborn as a bull. "Then I’ll buy it just for the sister!"
"Bro, what are you buying? If you’re buying egg waffles, bring me one too~"
"Not bringing, sister’s special treat!"
"..."
Hu Ming hastily left.
Jiang Man didn’t know whether to laugh or cry, looking at the bowl of noodles, uncertain whether to eat or not.
"Manman, don’t mind them, these brothers are always like this when they go crazy," Chen Anna glared at Hu Hao. "These two are Manman’s friends, they’ve come from far away, aren’t you going to show some hospitality?"
Upon hearing they were friends of Jiang Man, Hu Hao instantly turned enthusiastic and asked Wu Yingfan what he wanted to eat.
He then asked Shaye.
Shaye shook her head and said in broken Chinese that she didn’t understand.
"She’s from Thailand," Chen Anna said.
Hu Hao’s eyes immediately brightened, "Sister, you’re really impressive, making friends from all over the world; you have friends everywhere."
Is it really "everywhere"? Isn’t it just one country?
"What would you like to eat? I’ll go buy it!"
That night Jiang Man ate a lot and went back to the hotel with a stuffed belly alongside Wu Yingfan and Shaye.
She had a slim-looking physique and could eat anything without gaining weight, otherwise, she really wouldn’t dare to eat recklessly like this.
The three of them checked into the hotel where Hu Ming and Chen Anna were getting married and took a presidential suite.
Jiang Man and Shaye slept on the second floor while Wu Yingfan stayed on the first floor.
After a whole day of running around, Shaye took a bath and went straight to sleep.
Wu Yingfan yawned repeatedly while listening to Jiang Man discuss serious matters.
"There’s actually such a thing? So, is ’Return Color’ really your secret formula?"
"Not sure," Jiang Man said with her phone in hand, "I’ve already sent a message to Seth to check, and we’ll have news by tomorrow morning."
"Alright then, I’m off to wash up and sleep," Wu Yingfan stood up, yawned, and headed to the bathroom.
As soon as he left, Jiang Man’s phone rang.
Lu Xingzhou was making a video call.
"Hmm?" Jiang Man answered the video.
The screen was suddenly a visual shock, filled with a man’s chest, almost causing her to have a nosebleed.
Lu Xingzhou was adjusting the camera, seemingly positioning his phone before stepping back.
The muscular chest then moved away from the screen, revealing the man’s full physique.
Wrapped only in a towel, with robust lines and a body filled with masculine hormones.
Jiang Man glanced at the time on her phone; it was almost midnight.
This man, doing it on purpose!
"Manman, I’m attending your third brother’s wedding, which outfit should I wear?"
He walked over to the closet.
A whole row of closets became the backdrop, the orange light of the walk-in closet cast a halo, highlighting his naturally wheatish skin increasing its texture.
And with the towel being thin, Jiang Man couldn’t help but look towards a certain part of the man.
Letting her pick an outfit was just an excuse, to flirt was obviously his real intention.
"Lu Xingzhou, what do you mean? Visible yet untouchable is just pointless."
Jiang Man bit her teeth.
If this man was beside her, she definitely wouldn’t hold back!
She’d surely press him against the closet in a dominating move.
"What’s in that little head of yours every day? I really just want you to help me choose an outfit. Aren’t you a fashion designer? I trust your taste, which one should I wear to look good?"
"You’d look better not wearing anything," Jiang Man smiled slyly, "How about you take it off right now for me to see?"
"!!!" Lu Xingzhou lost it; he initially wanted to flirt with Jiang Man but didn’t expect her to flirt back, "Lewd."
"Men can be lewd but women can’t? We all have two arms and legs, walking upright primates, there is no high or low, no inferior or superior," Jiang Man argued convincingly.
Lu Xingzhou was torn between laughter and tears, "Wait until I get to Hong City, when I’m in front of you, then." fгee𝑤ebɳoveɭ.cøm
"Then what?" Jiang Man was intrigued, raising her eyebrows like a true pervert.
"Flirt with me again, and I’ll fly over right now!"
"Sure, fly over here, then fly back for the New Year, and fly here again on the first day, it’s not me who has to fly back and forth."
"..." Lu Xingzhou was speechless, "Jiang Man, I’m serious."
"Hmm?" Jiang Man hadn’t even had time to reply.
"Wait for me, I’m taking a private jet over."
Beep.
The video call ended.
Jiang Man didn’t mind.
Because she thought Lu Xingzhou couldn’t possibly be that crazy.
Him, always so serious, but that high and mighty catch, how could he possibly descend from his pedestal?
