Even hybrid monsters have their day

Chapter 209 Lai

She stumbled slightly as his hand pulled her, and she almost fell out of the car. Fortunately, she reacted quickly and grabbed Peng Yuxian's arm.

"Let go." The voice was still cold, but it wasn't hard to hear the suppressed anger in it.

"Let go first, then I'll let go." Geng Miaowan decided to stick to her guns and not care about losing face, since she didn't know anyone here anyway.

The man was clearly not buying it. "If you don't let go, don't blame me for getting rough," he said, using his other hand to pry her hand off.

Geng Miaowan thought to herself, "Isn't what you're doing now basically resorting to violence...?"

Although her spiritual power was suppressed, her physique was much stronger than that of ordinary people due to her cultivation, and her strength was naturally much greater. So much so that even a mature man like him couldn't pry her hands open despite using all his strength.

The man looked at her as if she were a superhuman, saying, "If you don't let go, I'll call the police!"

Geng Miaowan was taken aback. If she called the police, she wouldn't even have an ID card and would probably be detained as some kind of dangerous individual. Her dark eyes flickered, and she said, "It's best if you call the police. I'll tell them you're abusing a patient."

"Who abused the patient?" The man was taken aback by her sudden question.

"You, you just told so many people that I'm your patient, and now you're kicking me off the bus, that's patient abuse!" Geng Miaowan decided to give up entirely.

He sneered, "Where's the evidence? You don't even have our hospital's admission certificate."

“I can say it’s a private patient,” Geng Miaowan thought for a moment, then said, “So many people took pictures just now, and you admitted it yourself. I’m sure there’s plenty of evidence online. You won’t be able to deny it then!”

The man never expected that there would be such a shameless and irresponsible person in the world, and he was speechless for a moment.

At this moment, the driver in front reminded him, "Director Peng, the time is almost up."

Upon hearing this, his brow furrowed involuntarily. This patient was very special, and his research on him was quite thorough. He had followed up for a long time before finally persuading the patient's family to allow him to meet with him. If he missed the meeting and angered the family, they might refuse to let him see him again. Where would he find such a special case again?

Thinking of this, he patiently asked, "What do you want from me to let me go?"

"Let me follow you."

"Why should I?" If he had known this woman was so troublesome, he should have called the police on the overpass.

"Based on...based on..." Geng Miaowan thought for a long time but couldn't figure out what she could rely on, so she simply said frankly, "Based on the fact that I know you are Peng Yuxian."

"Haha!" Peng Yuxian chuckled dryly, clearly not satisfied with her answer; plenty of people knew his name. However, given that the agreed time was fast approaching, he didn't want to waste any more time with her.

He pulled her inside and closed the door again, only then did Geng Miaowan let go of his hand.

The car stopped at an intersection. Peng Yuxian picked up his bag and got out of the car. He gave Geng Miaowan a meaningful look and said, "You stay in the car and go back with Lao Jiang first. I'll come back to the hospital to find you after I've finished my business here."

Geng Miaowan thought to herself that even if he came back, he definitely wouldn't look for her, so she got out of the car and said, "I want to follow you."

Peng Yuxian pointed to her clothes. "How am I supposed to get anything done dressed like this?"

"I don't care, you already agreed to let me follow you, you can't go back on your word."

"When did I agree to let you come along!" He couldn't help but raise his voice again. However, Geng Miaowan didn't mind at all; his voice was nothing to Huangfu Aoran.

"You didn't refuse just now, which means you agreed, right?" Geng Miaowan felt that she had taken shamelessness to the extreme.

Peng Yuxian felt like a scholar encountering a soldier—he couldn't reason with him.

"I promise I won't cause any trouble. I'll stay quietly by your side while you're doing your work. You just need to let me follow you..." She softened her voice, and for once in a lifetime, she started to act coquettishly.

Her attire was already eye-catching enough. In his view, attracting attention was a form of trouble. However, her dark eyes seemed to hold the starry sky, shimmering with brilliance, which made him momentarily dazed, and he couldn't bring himself to refuse her.

"You can't do anything later, understand?" The two walked to the entrance of a kindergarten, where Peng Yuxian repeatedly instructed Geng Miaowan. Geng Miaowan nodded repeatedly.

Geng Miaowan's outfit was truly eye-catching by modern standards, and he attracted countless stares as he walked. Peng Yuxian wondered what had gotten into him that he'd agreed to such a strange request from this inexplicable person.

After explaining their purpose at the reception desk, the two went directly into the principal's office. There were three people in the office: the principal, a man and a woman who looked like a couple. They weren't very old, but they looked somewhat dazed and haggard.

"I'm sorry I'm late," Peng Yuxian said apologetically as soon as he entered. "I'm Peng Yuxian."

His gentle and approachable smile stunned Geng Miaowan. This was no different from the person who had been with her just moments before; the difference was too great.

Ignoring her astonishment, Peng Yuxian went into the office first.

"Hello, Teacher Peng," the principal extended her hand and introduced the two people next to her, "These two are Lu Shuaishuai's parents, Lu Fangtong and Jiang Lan."

"Hello!"

Peng Yuxian greeted them warmly, and Lu Fangtong responded politely. Jiang Lan glanced at him reluctantly before immediately looking away.

The headmaster noticed Geng Miaowan following him in and asked with a puzzled look, "Who is this?"

“Oh, her…” Peng Yuxian didn’t know how to introduce her; he didn’t even know her name.

Geng Miaowan seemed to sense his predicament and quickly stepped forward, smiling as she said to the principal, "Hello, I am Teacher Peng's assistant, Geng Miaowan."

Peng Yuxian hadn't expected her to say that, but she couldn't contradict her in front of everyone, so she could only glare at her in dissatisfaction.

"Oh, so you're the assistant..." The headmaster's eyes swept over her, a look of relief suddenly appearing on his face. (To be continued.)
