Chapter 17: The Cold-Faced Doctor x The Wealthy and Powerful CEO 17

An apartment in the city center.

Lu Yan sat on the sofa in the living room, a laptop resting on his lap.

He was finalizing the details of the contract with Hyman, his long, jade-like fingers flying across the keyboard, making him appear even more intelligent and capable.

Hyman sat opposite him, leisurely sipping tea, a drink unique to the East.

His gaze suddenly fixed on the exquisite necklace around Lu Yan’s neck.

“Who gave you this necklace?” His voice was devoid of emotion, but his brows furrowed slightly, and he couldn’t help but think more about it.

He had noticed a small, unwelcome device hidden in the necklace Lu Yan was wearing. This kind of thing wasn’t uncommon for someone like him, who was involved in the upper echelons of the underworld. It was almost commonplace.

Lu Yan didn’t look up, “My lover.”

Hyman stroked his fingertips, “You have a girlfriend?”

He was curious, what kind of girlfriend would put a tracker, something so underhanded, in her boyfriend’s necklace.

Lu Yan looked up at him, “No, my lover is a man.”

Hyman smirked, casually scanning the handsome Lu Yan.

So it was a man! No wonder!

Tsk, it seemed that Lu Yan’s lover was a very possessive and jealous person.

He said with a smirk, “Do you know there’s a tracker in your necklace?”

Lu Yan’s expression remained unchanged, “I know, what are you trying to say?”

He had been through so many mission worlds, he couldn’t have failed to notice what Shen Du had done to the necklace. He just didn’t care.

His lover was insecure. If the tracker could put his mind at ease, then so be it. After all, there was nothing he was hiding, what was there to hide from Shen Du?

Hyman raised an eyebrow, “Do you know that his actions constitute an invasion of privacy? Aren’t you a little angry or annoyed?”

Lu Yan said calmly, “Heh, you don’t need to worry about our business.”

Hyman leaned back, “Lu Yan, don’t blame me for not warning you. Your lover is not simple! Be careful you don’t fall into a trap.”

Lu Yan slowly lowered his head, “He wouldn’t, stop meddling in our business.”

Hyman said nonchalantly, “Suit yourself, I’ve warned you.”

If something really happened, don’t blame him, a bystander, for not saying anything.

Lu Yan continued typing on his keyboard, “When do you need this batch of medicine?”

Hyman replied, “At the end of this month. I’ll be leaving China soon and returning to Y Country to reclaim what’s mine. This batch of medicine might come in handy.”

Lu Yan was meticulously organizing the contract, when he suddenly heard a rapid knocking sound at the door.

“Knock, knock, knock…”

Lu Yan, who didn’t have time, directly said, “Hyman, go open the door and see if the takeout has arrived.”

He had ordered takeout for Hyman after returning, and it was about time.

“Alright, it’s time for dinner.”

Hyman lazily stood up and walked to the door. As soon as he opened it, he saw a man with a dark expression. Before he could speak, he was punched.

“You bastard! I’ll kill you!” Shen Du went crazy when he saw the stranger opening the door. No one could accept their wife cheating.

He had tried to reassure himself on the way up, he was just overthinking, his wife wouldn’t cheat, but the reality was quite the opposite.

A grown man walked out of his wife’s house, wearing his wife’s clothes, with the air of a legitimate wife.

Hyman stumbled back a few steps, “Damn! You’re really possessive of Lu Yan.”

He had just finished talking to Lu Yan about the tracker, and Lu Yan’s man showed up. And it was clear that he saw him as a rival.

Actually, he could explain.

Lu Yan heard the familiar voice and looked up. He saw Shen Du, his face full of anger. He looked at Shen Du and Hyman fighting, exchanging punches and kicks, with bewilderment.

“You bastard! There are so many men in the world, why the hell did you have to seduce my wife? I’ll kill you today if my name isn’t Shen.”

“Misunderstanding! Lu Yan and I…” Hyman hadn’t finished speaking when he was almost kicked down, he quickly dodged. He was also furious.

“You’re asking for death!”

Hyman clenched his fist and charged forward, fighting with Shen Du, who was so angry his eyes were bloodshot. This guy was a lot tougher than Shen Du, who was an amateur.

“You’re ruining someone else’s family and you still have the nerve to argue.” Shen Du’s eyes were filled with anger, his teeth were gritted, and his face was slightly twisted with anger.

“Don’t talk nonsense!” Hyman refused to admit it. He hadn’t hit on Lu Yan at all, that icy-faced doctor had never given him a good look.

Shen Du glared, “I’m talking nonsense? Tell me, how did you end up here?”

For three days in a row, his wife had been here several times, it was probably inseparable from this guy.

Hyman’s lips trembled, “There’s a reason, it’s not what you think.”

He quickly stepped back, dodging Shen Du’s flying kick, and punched Shen Du in the jaw.

Lu Yan saw that Shen Du was injured and quickly put down his laptop, walking to Shen Du’s side, “You’re hurt, I’ll find some medicine to put on it.”

Shen Du grabbed Lu Yan’s arm, trying to suppress the emotions churning within him.

“Wife, who is he?”

Lu Yan furrowed his brow, “Someone I saved, not someone important.”

Shen Du’s face relaxed slightly, “He’s nothing to you?” So, his wife hadn’t fallen for another man, and he wasn’t wearing a green hat.

Lu Yan nodded slightly, “Nothing! At most, it’s a doctor-patient relationship, plus a business partner, it’s not what you think.”

Shen Du released his clenched fist, “Why didn’t you tell me earlier?”

Lu Yan sighed, “I’m only keeping him for three days, why bother?”

“He’s leaving tomorrow, don’t worry about it.”

Hyman snorted from the side, “Humph, you two are really a pair.”

One of you starts hitting, the other one just scams me for money, neither of you are good people.

Lu Yan tilted his head and looked at him, “If you keep talking nonsense, I’ll dissect you tonight.”

Hyman: (òó) You old fox!

He wouldn’t say it if he didn’t want to!

He covered his injured eye with his hand and walked back to the sofa, wincing as he rubbed it.

Lu Yan took Shen Du’s hand and sat down, then found some ointment to apply to Shen Du’s wound.

“Why are you fighting with him? He’s tough, it’s bad for you to get hurt.”

His husband was a normal CEO, not a gangster like Hyman, so he would definitely be at a disadvantage in a fight!

Didn’t Hyman get punched by Shen Du at the beginning, and then he didn’t let Shen Du hit him again, but Shen Du was punched several times by Hyman.

Shen Du gritted his teeth and said, “He looked so damn annoying.”

The other guy was standing guard at the door with the attitude of a mob boss, how could he not hit him?

Although he seemed to have lost, and the dog man had hit him hard several times, at least he knew that his wife hadn’t been seduced by the other man.

His wife loved him.

Lu Yan softened his expression, his clear, watery eyes softened slightly, and he said softly, “Husband, what are you fighting with him for?”

“Including today, I’ve only met him three times, we’re not even acquaintances.”

Shen Du gradually regained his usual composure, his eyes no longer filled with killing intent when he looked at Hyman. Instead, he wanted to cling to Lu Yan and act cute.

“Then don’t associate with him anymore, he’s not our kind of person.”

Hyman: Hey, are you being polite?

“Okay.” Lu Yan smiled slightly, placing the laptop on the sofa in front of Shen Du, “Can you take a look at the contract and see if there are any problems?”

Shen Du quickly scanned the content of the contract and didn’t find any problems.

“No problem, it’s very comprehensive.”

Lu Yan nodded slightly, “That’s good.”

After taking care of the contract, he took Shen Du and left the apartment.

Hyman, left alone in the apartment, rubbed his face, looking bewildered.

That kind of fierce person, Lu Yan, actually has a partner!

He almost died in Lu Yan’s hands. If he hadn’t spent a fortune to buy his life, he would have really died in a ditch. He wouldn’t have had a chance to return to Y Country.

Tsk, this world is really full of surprises!

A handsome doctor who appears cold, calm, and collected, but is actually cruel and ruthless, and a possessive, jealous, and crazy man.

Couples are getting weirder these days.
