X-ray Eyes Little Wild Doctor-Chapter 173 - 168: To Cut Off a Hand or a Foot, Truly a Difficult Problem

The company’s restaurant was decorated simply yet stylishly, with marble floors so shiny you could see your reflection, Western paintings hanging on the walls, and central air conditioning blowing cool breezes. At noon, when the bright sun shined in, dining by the window was a real treat.

After a long silence, Bai Lan began to speak slowly, "Tomorrow is the weekend already. How are your preparations for the archery going? Don’t let me down when the time comes."

Ye Tian pretended not to know what she was talking about and countered, "Archery? What archery?"

"What’s wrong with you? Didn’t I tell you about it last time? How could you forget!" Bai Lan became somewhat angry but suddenly saw the mischievous smile at the corner of Ye Tian’s mouth and immediately understood, scolding, "You bad egg, you’re deliberately fooling me, aren’t you?"

"What joke? How could I forget a date with the beautiful Bai? Even if I forget to eat, I wouldn’t forget this," Ye Tian continued teasingly. "Has the beautiful Bai been feeling lonely lately? You must be using this as an excuse to get close to me, hehehe, you can’t hide these little tricks from me."

Bai Lan glared at him irritably and snapped, "Don’t flatter yourself. At most, you’re just a third wheel to me. Dream on."

Bai Lan bowed her head to eat, and suddenly there was a loud pop from the back of her shirt, her face changed, and she thought to herself, "Now I’ve done it."

"Oh my gosh, how is this even possible!" Ye Tian’s eyes widened.

"It’s all because of your jinx!" Bai Lan vented her anger on Ye Tian, whose unlucky words seemed to have cursed their meal -- she had never experienced such a thing, and now it happened while dining with him.

"Cough cough, how is this related to me at all? Why blame me? Who did I provoke?" Ye Tian said, feeling quite aggrieved.

Bai Lan didn’t dare to move, fearing that any movement would cause her shirt to fall out, which would be truly embarrassing.

"What am I supposed to do now? It had to break here in the restaurant, of all places. I can’t just strip and button up in the dining hall, can I? This is so embarrassing, all thanks to Ye Tian’s cursed mouth," Bai Lan almost cried out in distress.

From time to time, colleagues who had finished eating would politely greet Minister Bai as they passed by, making Bai Lan even more embarrassed.

Ye Tian chuckled mischievously a few more times, then fell silent, just focusing on eating his meal, occasionally looking up in awe.

Utterly embarrassed, Bai Lan couldn’t stand it any longer and pleaded for help, "Ye Tian, think of something."

"What can I do? I can’t exactly ask you to take off your clothes, can I?" Ye Tian shrugged, indicating he was helpless.

"Isn’t it enough that I am begging you?"

Bai Lan could only pin her hopes on Ye Tian.

"Cough cough, fine, who makes me so chivalrous? I’ll help you this one time," Ye Tian put down his utensils and walked behind Bai Lan, reaching out to rescue her from this dire situation.

"What are you doing!" Bai Lan was startled by his actions.

"Of course, I’m helping you. What did you think?" Ye Tian seemed unconcerned.

As he spoke, he quickly found the straps and clumsily snapped them shut.

Bai Lan sat in her chair, not daring to move, her heart pounding wildly.

At that moment, Bai Lan just hoped that nobody noticed them, praying no colleague saw Ye Tian’s act, or her reputation would be completely ruined, and she’d never be able to clear her name, even if she jumped into the Yellow River.

Luckily, although Ye Tian was clumsy, he was not dumb, and he soon fixed it. freewebnøvel.coɱ

"All done!" Ye Tian clapped his hands with joy.

Bai Lan’s face flushed with embarrassment. She really didn’t know what to say. She indeed wanted Ye Tian’s help, but she hadn’t expected him to help in such a manner. If she had known he would do this, she would rather have done it herself.

Looking around, thankfully it was late and most colleagues had left, leaving the restaurant almost empty.

Without further ado, she pulled out her phone and dialed Ye Tian’s number, and bellowed, "Ye Tian, get back here, I swear I won’t kill you!"
