He had already planned to sit down and have a proper talk with this woman, but he never expected that by the time dawn arrived, she had already taken it upon herself to act as Guan Xing's wife.
Such an elegant and sensual woman—taking her as a wife was something Guan Xing truly dared not imagine. Her looks were exquisite, her charm seductive and dangerous, an irresistible allure hidden beneath her妖媚气质. Her figure swayed like a serpent, supple and graceful, fully worthy of the title a beauty capable of toppling nations.
"I overslept. If you like it here, you can stay. We'll talk again tonight when I get back," Guan Xing said. Even he hadn't expected to sleep so deeply; it was already past nine in the morning. Since she showed no intention of leaving, he decided to reconsider everything later.
Sun Yiran didn't put on airs. She simply lowered her head and softly responded with an "Mm," then began clearing the dishes. She really looked like a virtuous wife, even warmly reminding him, "Husband, be careful on the road."
Enduring a splitting headache, Guan Xing finally went downstairs. No matter how much he thought about it, he couldn't figure her out. Just last night she had been acting as if she might live or die at any moment, and now she had calmly become his wife?
He couldn't understand it—no matter how worldly and experienced he was, this was the first time he had encountered something so strange. Sun Yiran's seductive charm made her perfectly suited as a one-night companion, but as a wife? That required serious consideration.
When he arrived at the company and entered the infirmary, his eyes lit up. The three great beauties of Feiyang were already there, sitting in front of his desk, chatting softly among themselves.
"Doctor Guan, good morning," Sister Fang greeted him warmly as soon as she saw him. "President Cheng and the two managers have been waiting for you for a while." She was also curious—three top-tier beauties gathering early in the infirmary was certainly unusual.
"Doctor Guan, you're late," Cheng Yunya stood up gracefully. Her tall figure, framed by her fluffy long hair, looked especially charming. Even her crescent-shaped eyebrows seemed carefully groomed, her every expression brimming with allure. "Considering you treated us to dinner last night, we'll let it slide this time."
Guan Xing stepped forward, glancing at the three women. All of them looked radiant, youthful, and stunning. He smiled and said, "Looks like all of you slept well. You don't seem like you're here to see a doctor so early."
Qin Yunlu immediately spat twice and said, "I don't get sick. We were just curious about you, Doctor Guan. Since we all happened to come by and didn't see you, we got worried. Three beauties caring about you like this—aren't you touched?"
"That's right," Cheng Yunya chimed in sweetly. "Three women caring about one man—what boundless good fortune. In all of Feiyang, only you get this treatment."
Only Hua Rubing didn't echo them. Her icy expression softened slightly as she smiled faintly, raised her slender hands from her knees, brushed aside a strand of hair, and said gently, "Actually, we didn't come for anything important. We're just a little curious, from a woman's perspective, about Doctor Guan's background."
"A man who casually wins three million, spends seventy or eighty thousand on a meal, knows Elder Peng, and yet works here for twenty thousand a month," Qin Yunlu said in a strange tone. "Doctor Guan, what exactly did you do before? Don't tell me you're some tycoon's illegitimate son."
Only then did Guan Xing realize that his carelessness had exposed too many inconsistencies. He had lived freely for so long and never paid much attention to money—ever since birth, he'd never really lacked it.
Putting on a serious face, he said, "Ladies, you know I'm a doctor. I treat a lot of patients. Sometimes I save a life—that's just fate. I can't remember every single one. My medical skills are decent, and when I was abroad, I treated a few wealthy people. Naturally, the consultation fees were high, so I earned some money."
"There's nothing strange about that," he added casually. "After all, dollars are worth more than RMB."
It was clearly a perfunctory explanation, and all three women could tell.
Cheng Yunya smiled faintly, her eyes filled with teasing. "Then why did you come to Feiyang? You must be worth tens of millions at least. Working here for five thousand a month—either there's something wrong with your head, or you have a hidden agenda. Speak honestly."
"Yes, confess now, or we'll use force," Qin Yunlu said, rolling up her sleeves and clenching her fists.
Guan Xing shook his head helplessly. "Alright, alright. Maybe my head really did get flooded. I came here because Feiyang has three stunning beauties. Don't let my usual seriousness fool you—I'm still a man, after all."
To escape the situation, he willingly labeled himself a wolf.
Unfortunately, none of the three believed him. Hua Rubing snorted coldly. "Doctor Guan, you've never treated us as friends. Maybe women like us are beneath your notice."
"That's right," Qin Yunlu added. "We sincerely want to be your friends. Between friends, there should be honesty, don't you think?"
Only Cheng Yunya remained silent, her clear eyes calmly fixed on Guan Xing's face.
Some things he truly didn't want to bring up again, but seeing how far they'd pushed, Guan Xing felt it wouldn't hurt to say something.
"Fine. I'll be honest. I came to Feiyang with absolutely no ulterior motives, and I won't harm the company. To be frank, I just wanted a quiet place to rest for a while. That's all."
As he spoke, a faint weariness surfaced on his face—a heaviness born of life itself, a kind of exhaustion that words couldn't fully express. Only at this moment did the three women realize that this man had likely endured far more than he ever showed.
Hua Rubing felt it keenly and couldn't help feeling a little guilty. "Guan Xing… sorry. We were just worried, that's why we pressed you. We didn't mean any harm."
She already had feelings for him. After hearing Cheng Yunya's analysis, she had been deeply shaken. If Guan Xing truly intended harm toward Feiyang, she wouldn't have known how to face herself.
"Come to think of it, Doctor Guan wouldn't care about a small company like Feiyang anyway," Cheng Yunya said with a smile. "To make up for our misunderstanding, how about this—choose one of us to be your girlfriend. Is that punishment severe enough?"
As she spoke, warmth surged from her heart. The loneliness and quiet sorrow in Guan Xing's eyes stirred deep compassion within her. This man needed care—desperately.
The moment those words fell, Qin Yunlu and Hua Rubing froze, their faces flushing red with shy delight as they lowered their heads. Guan Xing himself was stunned. Such a thing was actually happening to him?
Truthfully, all three women were graceful, elegant, and captivating in their own ways—none inferior to the others. Choosing just one was nearly impossible.
Smiling wryly, he said, "Choosing one means giving up two—that's too painful. Why not all three be my girlfriends? That way, I won't have any regrets."
Any man would think that way.
"Men really are all the same," Cheng Yunya snorted. "Even you, Doctor Guan. Because of your greed, I hereby revoke your right to choose. If you have the ability, pursue us yourself. As long as you succeed and we're willing, what's wrong with all three being your girlfriends?"
Qin Yunlu and Hua Rubing were instantly overwhelmed with embarrassment, glaring at Cheng Yunya with reproachful eyes—but she had already said everything she wanted.
"I'm not joining," Qin Yunlu stood up first and fled.
"I—I… Doctor Guan, if you want to pursue me, you must be sincere," Hua Rubing said shyly. Among the three, it was clear she was the one truly moved by emotion.
"Don't look at me," Cheng Yunya said lazily. "I don't need chasing. If you manage to win over Feiyang's twin beauties, I might join in the fun. That's it—do your best."
When the three women left, Guan Xing stood there as if in a dream. He scratched his head and gave a bitter smile. There was already one woman at home he hadn't dealt with yet, and now three more had joined the chaos. Too many extraordinary women weren't necessarily a good thing.
At that moment, Sister Fang excitedly leaned over, lowering her voice but unable to hide her joy. "Doctor Guan, Doctor Guan, you've really struck peach blossom luck! The three most beautiful women in Feiyang all like you. Go for it—I support you!"
Peach blossom luck? Guan Xing couldn't help feeling that this was more like a peach blossom calamity.
