Chapter 20 - Are you avoiding me because you caught someone else?

"When I see you nervous?" He asked her abruptly.

"I'm not..." Lin Mian only felt embarrassed.

The transaction relationship between the two of them was originally clandestine. If she didn't avoid him, should she greet him openly?

Shi Lin obviously didn't want to let her off. He took a step forward, his tall and slim figure pressed her against the sink.

Lin Mian instinctively moved back until her lower back hit the marble countertop, with no way to retreat.

The man lowered his head slightly, his sharp face approaching her, "Are you avoiding me because you've hooked someone else? Is he more generous than me, offering you a higher price?"

Lin Mian's eyes widened suddenly, understanding his meaning in a second.

"He is my leader and teacher, not the kind of relationship you are thinking of. We are very innocent." Lin Mian couldn't help but explain.

Although she was timid, cowardly, and socially anxious, she wouldn't allow anyone to disrespect Qin Li.

Qin Li was the kindest and gentlest teacher she had ever met.

Shi Lin scoffed at her words, then approached her again, his powerful aura enveloping her, every word he spoke sounding like a warning.

"Qin Li is not someone you can provoke, understand?"

Lin Mian frowned, not understanding his words.

Shi Lin took a step forward, raised his hand, pinched her chin, each word falling into her ears."If you ever need money again, I can allow you to come to me for a trade. After all, we are old acquaintances, and we have a high degree of compatibility in bed. If you perform well, I'll even increase your price."

Lin Mian's face turned red all of a sudden.

She pushed him away with force, feeling her ears burning and her head buzzing.

"We... between us, it's over, let's end it here."

After saying that, she hastily fled the restroom.

It wasn't until she was out of the hall that her heart was still pounding in her chest. Lin Mian patted her burning face and tried to calm herself down.

She had actually been flirted with by a man with suggestive remarks in the restroom!

The doctor with a restrained and cultured appearance turned out to have such a vulgar way of speaking!

Coincidentally, Shi Lin also walked out of the restroom at that moment. Qin Li had finished paying the bill and returned to see Lin Mian in this state, and he couldn't help but reproach Shi Lin.

"What were you doing just now? Why did you make my little assistant blush like that? She's shy and has a thin skin, she's a good girl, don't tease her."

Shi Lin smirked and muttered softly, "Is that so, a good girl?"

A good girl who climbed into his bed in the middle of the night, a good girl who had been on his bed twice?

Qin Li tried to defuse the situation, "Mian Mian, don't mind him. That's just how he is, straightforward and lacking in social skills. Just ignore him."

Lin Mian didn't dare to argue with him.

She didn't even have a chance to hide.

As she was leaving, the man's slender arm accidentally brushed against her hand. Lin Mian quickly withdrew her fingers, feeling as if she had been struck by an electric current.She wasn't sure if he did it intentionally.

But... all her senses are extremely sensitive right now.

It seems that whenever she meets him, all her calm and composure crumble, and even all her pores seem to expand by double, which is really strange.

In the afternoon, Qin Li dropped them off at the hospital, took a call, and then left.

Before leaving, he entrusted Lin Mian to another master for assistance, and Lin Mian continued her surveying work with the master.

As the entire layout of the hospital needed a major overhaul, Lin Mian was responsible for the measurement data for the entire third floor.

This included the entire internal medicine office, as well as the examination room where Shi Lin worked.

Taking her time, Lin Mian completed measurements for all the structures and terrains on the third floor before slowly making her way to Shi Lin's examination room.

Luckily, there were patients in front of the man, and he didn't have time to pay attention to her.

After explaining the reason, Lin Mian took her tools and buried herself in her work, focusing on the task at hand.

With a glimpse, she saw the examination bed in the inner room, and involuntarily thought of the last time she lay on it, with her clothes lifted by him pressing down on her stomach.

The strength and warmth of the man's fingers seemed to still be engraved on her abdomen, warm, heavy, with depth.

Her face slightly flushed, she subtly averted her gaze.

Lin Mian continued to immerse herself in her work.

Being petite, she held up a long ruler with one hand, tiptoeing to reach the ceiling. The short T-shirt lifted by her movements revealed a small section of her fair waist.

So delicate, it seemed like it could be broken with just one hand.Shi Lin sent the patient away and cast a surreptitious glance at her. Just one glance, and he couldn't look away.
