Beauty and the Bodyguard

Guan Xin

"Nurse Guan Xin, help! My boss cut his hand. Can you please treat him?" Wang Shubing pushed open the nurses' office and spoke to Guan Xin.

Guan Xin lifted her head. She didn't expect Kang Zhaoming and his friends to come again. She felt disgusted. How could she not know what Kang Zhaoming wanted? She already had someone on her mind and she wouldn't ever lay her eyes on Kang Zhaoming!

Although the person she liked had someone on his mind, Guan Xin still wouldn't like Kang Zhaoming.

Although she disliked him, she couldn't ignore his request. morally. She was the only nurse on shift, so she had no choice but to stand up.

Guan Xin frowned. Kang Zhaoming was much smarter this time. Last time he didn't even see her and this time he injured his own hand. However, Guan Xin had to treat him first since all severe injuries had to be treated before making up for the medical fees.

"Can I see it?" Guan Xin asked.

"Here. Guan Xin, I'm so unlucky. I caught a cold yesterday and injured my hand today. Ahh, so unfortunate!" Kang Zhaoming lifted his injured left hand up and spoke.

"..." Guan Xin looked at Kang Zhaoming's hand injury and she was speechless. Why did he need to treat such a tiny wound? An ordinary person would just put some cream or a band-aid on. Why was Kang Zhaoming so spoiled?

"What's wrong?" Kang Zhaoming saw Guan Xin remained silent and asked in confusion.

Guan Xin didn't reply but she was certain that Kang Zhaoming did it on purpose. Perhaps he even made the injury himself! She was upset at the thought of it. How could he do that!

Guan Xin opened the cupboard, found a band-aid and passed it to Kang Zhaoming, "Here, stick it on yourself and it'll do."

"Huh, do it myself?" Kao Zhaoming froze.

"How do you want me to treat such a tiny wound?" Guan Xin questioned back.

"Well…" Indeed, the wound was too small and it wasn't wrong for her to give him a band-aid.

"Well… Can you help me with it?" Kang Zhaoming didn't want to let any chances to get closer to her slip through.

"Isn't your other hand fine?" Guan Xin frowned.

"But… I'm a patient and you are a nurse, you should help me right… It's not like I won't pay for it…" Kang Zhaoming felt wronged.

"Oh, I'll give you that band-aid for free as a friendly act," Guan Xin ignored Kang Zhaoming and returned to her desk, picking up a book to read.

Kang Zhaoming didn't have another plan so he stuck on the band-aid himself. He secretly wondered how he could loosen Guan Xin's mouth and ask what was the relationship between her and Fen.

However, he didn't know how to start a conversation on it.

"Why are you still here?" Guan Xin asked in confusion. She waited for a while and found that Kang Zhaoming was still standing in her office.

"Uh… Nothing, I was thinking of going now…" Kang Zhaoming replied, "Oh right, I wanted to see you yesterday, but I saw that you looked like you were going somewhere with a girl whose leg was injured?"

"Mhm…" Guan Xin replied meaninglessly.

"Uh… Is she your friend?" Kang Zhaoming asked carefully.

"Does it have anything to do with you?" Guan Xin didn't understand what Kang Zhaoming was trying to say.

"Uh… Nothing…" Guan Xin's words made Kang Zhaoming's heartbeat anxious since he thought that she meant something deeper.

"Is it related to you?"

Was that a question or rhetorical question? Perhaps she knew the relationship between Fen and him? Kang Zhaoming became even more anxious. Shit, that bitch was such an incompetent woman. If she really told what happened between them to Guan Xin then he would never have a chance.

Kang Zhaoming wasn't too discouraged at Guan Xin's cold attitude. He had his way of pursuing girls. When he started pursuing Fen, Fen acted coldly too. But didn't she fall for him in the end?

So, Kang Zhaoming was certain that he could make Guan Xin love him. However, the main obstacle was Fen. If Fen said what happened between them, it would make Guan Xin stay on guard. Then he really won't have a chance anymore.

Kang Zhaoming stomped after he left Guan Xin's office and asked, "Did you find out anything?"

"Master Ming, I think Guan Xin knows something about it?" Zhu Xiaozhang said.

"That's what I thought. I thought she meant something else? Does she know what happened between Fen and me or not?" Kang Zhaoming was frustrated but he couldn't ask Guan Xin straightforwardly.

"Master Ming, I don't think she knows what happened between you and Fen," Wang Shubing shook his head.

"Oh? Why do you think so?" Kang Zhaoming's expressions immediately changed.

"Master Ming, if you think about it, Guan Xin won't act so coldly towards you if she knew what happened. She should hate you if she knew. The first time you asked her about Fen, she wouldn't only say 'mhm' if she knew what happened, wouldn't she scorn you?" Wang Shubing analyzed.

"That makes sense!" Kang Zhaoming nodded and sighed in relief, "That's good. There is no problem if Guan Xin doesn't know about it"

"Master Ming, we can't let out guard down. Even if she doesn't know now, perhaps she'll know after spending more time with Fen. We must act as soon as possible!" Wang Shubing suggested.

"Mhm. Weren't we discussing this a while ago? What ideas do you have to make that bitch shut up about it?" Kang Zhaoming was still worried about Fen spilling the tea. If he didn't take of it, she was a time bomb.

"Honestly speaking, if you want to make her shut up, I think the only way is to give her some money to seal her mouth!" Wang Shubing hesitated, "I'm afraid that Fen cannot get over both psychological and physical harm as it was severe. She must loathe you so she will only keep quiet if we give her money!"

Kang Zhaoming was unwilling to give money away, but what Wang Shubing said was correct. Nothing was more reliant than money in life. Fen would only shut up if he gave her money!
