Chapter 8

Xiang Yuntian knelt on one knee, holding a bouquet of blue roses in his hands, and said with deep affection, "Chu Chu, from the moment I saw you, I knew I was completely lost in you.

My heart is completely filled with you. I won't look at any other woman besides you. Will you be my girlfriend?"

As he finished speaking, the crowd around them started shouting again, "Together... together... together..."

Seeing how persistent this guy was, Qin Chuchu looked at Ye Bufan for help.

Ye Bufan burst out laughing and said teasingly, "You're such a good actor. It's a waste that you're not in the entertainment industry."

Xiang Yuntian, with a look of indignation, shouted, "What are you talking about? My sincerity towards Chu Chu is as clear as the sun and the moon. If I lie, may I be struck by lightning!"

"Is that so? Then let everyone see how sincere you are."

As he spoke, Ye Bufan reached out and quickly pulled a white object from Xiang Yuntian's suit pocket. It was a woman's intimate undergarment, an extremely sexy one, almost transparent.

Holding it up, he said teasingly, "Mr. Xiang, explain this. Is this your sincerity?

If you are so devoted to Chu Chu and haven't looked at any other woman for half a year, where did this come from? You didn't use it yourself, did you?"

"I..."

Xiang Yuntian was stunned. He hadn't gone without looking at women for half a year; he couldn't go a day without them. He also had a special hobby: after each encounter with a woman, he kept a pair of her underwear as a memento.

This one was from last night, and he hadn't had time to dispose of it yet.

But it was a tiny thong, made of lace, smaller than a handkerchief, and couldn't be seen in his pocket. How did this guy find it?

Seeing this, the crowd immediately became restless.

"Damn, I almost fell for this scumbag. He has another woman's things in his pocket and still professes his love. What a freak..."

"Shameless, so shameless. He has this in his pocket and still speaks so grandly. How thick-skinned can he be..."

"Didn't he say he'd be struck by lightning? The heavens should strike him dead..."

Xiang Yuntian licked his dry lips and, thinking quickly, said, "Chu Chu, don't misunderstand. A friend borrowed this suit for a date yesterday to look good.

The things inside must be his, they have nothing to do with me."

"What about this? Is it related to you?"

Ye Bufan casually threw away the undergarment and then reached into Xiang Yuntian's pocket again, pulling out a pink object.

His speed was so fast that Xiang Yuntian couldn't react at all.

"Mr. Xiang, this is a Durex, right? Where did it come from? Did you lend your pants to a friend too?"

"I..."

Xiang Yuntian's face was full of embarrassment. He always carried condoms because he dated women every day.

But he was also very curious. The condom was even smaller than the undergarment. How did this guy know?

"Chu Chu, don't misunderstand. I don't know where this came from. It might be a prank by my friend. I really don't know anything."

At this point, Xiang Yuntian could only deny everything, or he would lose everything.

"Is that so? What about this?"

Ye Bufan reached out again and pulled two small white pills from another pocket.

"Mr. Xiang, if I'm not mistaken, these are the so-called 'morning-after pills,' right? Your equipment is really complete. Did your friend also play a prank by giving you these?"

Seeing everything, Qin Chuchu said with disgust, "Xiang Yuntian, leave. I don't want to see you anymore!"

Seeing his carefully planned scheme ruined, Xiang Yuntian was furious, "Bastard, I'll kill you!"

He no longer cared about putting on a show and swung his fist at Ye Bufan's face.

Unfortunately, his body, weakened by alcohol and women, was no match for Ye Bufan. He was kicked in the stomach and flew into the 999 roses.

"Ah..."

Xiang Yuntian let out a heart-wrenching scream.

The fall wasn't too severe, but the roses had thorns. By the time he struggled to get up, his body was covered in rose thorns.

"Kid, you dare to compete with me for a woman? You'll regret it."

Xiang Yuntian made a threat and tried to run away, but after a few steps, the manhole cover under his feet flipped open, and he fell in with a splash.

This was extremely embarrassing. When he climbed out of the manhole, his body was covered in garbage, emitting a foul smell.

His men in the crowd quickly ran over to help him leave.

Seeing the once-arrogant Mr. Xiang now in such a sorry state, the crowd burst into laughter.

"Good job, kid, I admire you..."

"Miss, you have good eyes. This kid is great..."

The onlookers praised Ye Bufan.

People usually disliked the behavior of these rich young masters but were powerless to do anything. This young man had really helped them vent their frustration.

Qin Chuchu pulled Ye Bufan to the side and said with a burning gaze, "How did you do that?"

His performance was so unexpected that it was almost breathtaking, completely crushing Mr. Xiang.

After today, Xiang Yuntian would likely never have the face to pursue her again.

Ye Bufan smiled, "Didn't you see?"

Qin Chuchu, her cheeks flushed, said, "I mean, how did you know Xiang Yuntian had those things in his pocket?"

Ye Bufan, of course, wouldn't reveal his spiritual senses. He said, "I'm a traditional Chinese medicine practitioner. I could tell this guy was severely kidney-deficient. It was easy to guess."

Qin Chuchu didn't press further and said, "Thank you for your help. I'll treat you to dinner after work."

She then turned and walked into the Qin Group's office building. After all this, she was about to be late for work.

Ye Bufan also left and soon arrived at the largest traditional Chinese medicine clinic in Jiangnan City—Bai Cao Tang.

Bai Cao Tang was completely decorated in an ancient style, looking elegant and grand.

A couplet hung at the entrance: "No one sees the preparation, but the heavens know the heart."

Ye Bufan stepped inside and looked around. On the left was the pharmacy, and on the right were the consultation rooms.

Since it had just opened, there weren't many customers in the pharmacy. They hadn't reached the stage of picking up their medicine yet. Only one pharmacist was playing with his phone behind the counter.

He glanced at Ye Bufan as he entered but didn't say anything, then continued playing.

Ye Bufan came to the counter and said, "I need to pick up some medicine."

The pharmacist, without looking up, said, "Wait a moment, can't you see I'm busy?"

Ye Bufan was speechless. Was playing a game considered busy? This was the typical arrogance of a large store!

He considered leaving, but he needed many types of herbs to refine the Foundation Establishment Pill, some of which were rare and couldn't be found in smaller pharmacies.
