The Wild Doctor and the Fair Beauty

Without a second thought, Su Yanyun opened her computer and started pulling up the previous surveillance footage.

Shen Lingxue, on the other hand, dialed Jiang Xinghai’s number. "Come on up. Something’s happened here."

She hung up abruptly without explaining, then leaned over to watch the monitor.

「Downstairs, in the Land Rover.」

Jiang Xinghai’s face was a mask of misery.

’Shen Lingxue wants me to go upstairs now?’

He’d already thrown away his pants, which had been covered in vomit.

Now even his boxers were soiled, and he’d taken them off too.

’I can’t exactly go up there with nothing on, can I?’

He looked all around, but there was nothing in the car he could use for cover. Jiang Xinghai couldn’t help the anxiety welling up inside him.

"President Jiang is back!"

Just then, Manager Xu Yingying from the production department walked over with a file, calling out a greeting. She could smell the alcohol wafting from the car from a good distance away. "President Jiang, did you drink too much? Do you want me to help you up?"

"Help me up?" Jiang Xinghai was slightly taken aback.

But Xu Yingying had already reached the car. "Come on, President Jiang. I’ll help you upstairs and make you a strong cup of tea to sober up."

"Don’t! Don’t come any closer!" Jiang Xinghai didn’t even have his boxers on.

But before the words had left his mouth, Xu Yingying had already opened the car door.

In that instant, Jiang Xinghai felt a chilly breeze sweep over him.

"President Jiang, you..."

Xu Yingying’s cheeks flushed crimson. She froze for several seconds, then struggled to raise her gaze before quickly looking down again. "It seems you really did drink too much, President Jiang. Maybe you should... get some clothes on first..."

’She found it hard to believe... that Jiang Xinghai was so... impressively well-built.’

’No wonder her colleagues in the workshop had been gossiping about that incident in the bathroom.’

’At first, she hadn’t believed it. How could any man be so ridiculously well-endowed?’

’Now she understood.’

’Seeing really is believing!’

"Manager Xu, could you... take off your work pants and give them to me?" Jiang Xinghai asked in mortification after hastily shutting the car door.

"President Jiang, are you trying to..." Xu Yingying grew flustered.

’She knew some men had a particular... fondness for women’s clothing.’

’Worse, there were plenty of perverts who stole women’s panties to fantasize over.’

’Could Jiang Xinghai be one of those men?’

"Manager Xu, please don’t misunderstand. I lost my pants," Jiang Xinghai explained.

’How do you lose the pants you’re wearing?’ Xu Yingying thought to herself, but didn’t say it out loud.

Jiang Xinghai forced a smile and said, "Oh, well, due to certain... special circumstances, I had to take my pants off and accidentally lost them. My boxers, too."

’He couldn’t very well say that Su Yanyun got drunk and puked all over him, could he?’

’If he did, wouldn’t Su Yanyun, the company’s distinguished president, lose all her dignity and prestige?’

"Oh, so that’s what happened."

Xu Yingying finally understood. "Wait here for a moment. I have a clean pair of work pants. I’ll go get them for you right away."

「Meanwhile.」

「In the President’s Office.」

After replaying the surveillance footage, Su Yanyun and Shen Lingxue finally found a key frame.

The time stamp on the footage was from just before they had left for dinner at the hotel.

A man in a suit, wearing a black ski mask, had picked the lock and broken in.

"That figure... looks so familiar," Shen Lingxue said, touching her forehead as she tried to remember.

Su Yanyun’s eyes clouded with suspicion as she nodded, pausing the video and zooming in on the image.

Unfortunately, the masked man only revealed his eyes and the bridge of his nose, making it impossible to identify him.

In the video, the masked man located the safe and pried it open with his bare hands.

"He’s a practitioner of Martial Arts, not an ordinary person," Shen Lingxue concluded definitively.

Even Shen Lingxue, who had already stepped into the Master Realm, wasn’t confident she could accomplish such a feat of strength.

"Who the hell is this goddamn bastard!"

Su Yanyun watched the masked man on screen rummaging through the safe’s contents. He ignored the cash and jewelry, but when he found the sheet of A4 paper, his entire body began to tremble.

It was clearly a tremble of excitement!

"What’s wrong?"

Just then, Jiang Xinghai pushed the door open and walked in, followed by Xu Yingying, who was still holding the file.

Shen Lingxue and Su Yanyun were just about to blurt out what happened, but they both froze when they saw Jiang Xinghai walk in wearing a pair of high-water work pants.

"I borrowed them from Manager Xu. You know how it is," Jiang Xinghai said with an embarrassed smile.

Shen Lingxue and Su Yanyun couldn’t help but exchange a look.

That’s right!

Jiang Xinghai’s pants were long gone.

"President Shen, President Su, here is the report. I’ll be taking my leave now." Xu Yingying put down the file and turned to go.

’It was so awkward being in the same room with three presidents.’

"Manager Xu, I’ll wash your pants and return them to you another day," Jiang Xinghai said, tugging at the work pants.

Manager Xu gave a shy smile. "It’s fine. Consider them a gift, President Jiang. A souvenir."

"Huh?" Jiang Xinghai froze.

Shen Lingxue and Su Yanyun had the same reaction.

’Since when was it normal for a woman to give her pants to a man as a souvenir?’

"No, no, no! I just mean, they’re only work pants. You can just throw them away when you’re done," Xu Yingying quickly explained.

She could tell that both Shen Lingxue and Su Yanyun had feelings for Jiang Xinghai. Not wanting to stir up trouble, she made a hasty exit.

"So, what exactly happened?" Jiang Xinghai asked again.
