Xue Chenkong was pale, eyes red and breathing tight. He gripped the steering wheel so tightly that the veins on the back of his hands were bulging, but he tried his best to control his desire to grab her back. He could not do that…

As much as she yearned for the sunlight, her presence was like the warm sunlight to him. She had said that if anyone locked her up, she would be like a fish out of water, suffocating to death.

The bodyguards who had been following behind saw that there was something wrong with Xue Chenkong and quickly got out. “Mr. Chenkong, are you all right? I’ll call the young lady back immediately! ”

“Get lost! ” Xue Chenkong’s cold eyes swept over the bodyguards. His violent aura made the trained bodyguards take a few steps back.

When the third scion of the family’s illness acted up, they couldn’t beat him even with more than a dozen bodyguards!

Xue Chenkong’s hands trembled as he rummaged through his inner pocket to find two white pills. He stuffed them into his mouth and swallowed them. The taste was bitter and astringent, but that way, his violent emotions also became stable.

Xue Chenkong’s fingers slowly slid down from the steering wheel, and a bitter smile appeared on his lips. How could he not know that she was resisting him? She did not want to marry him at all. But the medicine was really too bitter. In contrast, she was so sweet. How could he bear to let her go?

Shen Manting had no idea what had happened after her parting with Xue Chenkong. She entered the hospital and called Mr. Song over. “Prepare the materials for the meeting. ”

Mr. Song looked at his boss who had just gotten married the night before yet came to work the next day in surprise. “Dr. Shen, you’re not on a marriage leave? ” He had thought that he would be able to relax for a while. Presently, it seemed like an extravagant hope.

Shen Manting paused for a moment before asking, “Is there a problem? ”

Mr. Song immediately stood up straight. “None. I’ll get it done right away. ” Every time he faced the young woman, he would feel like he was meeting an old leader in their forties or fifties. Her aura was too mature.

As soon as Shen Manting entered the meeting room, her good friend, Qin Yueshu, who was also a doctor in the hospital, ran over to her worriedly. “Did Mr. Chenkong of the Xue family didn’t make things difficult for you, did he? ” she asked.

Qin Yueshu only found out earlier that Shen Manting had actually forgotten to register her marriage with Xue Chenkong the day before. When she thought of Xue Chenkong’s perverted possessiveness, she couldn’t help but lament that the world was unfair. Why did such an excellent good friend have to marry an emotionally unstable person? !

“No, we successfully got our marriage certificate! ” Shen Manting said in a casual tone as she flipped through the meeting materials.

“Oh… Wait a minute. What’s this? ” Qin Yueshu looked at the red marks on Shen Manting’s fair neck. They were the legendary hickeys!

Shen Manting’s expression changed; the casual look on her face disappeared. She quickly covered her neck with her hands. “Qin Yueshu, return to your seat immediately. ”

Qin Yueshu, on the other hand, had an evil smile on her face. She winked at Shen Manting and said, “It seems that you two were very intense last night! ”

“Qin Yueshu! ” Shen Manting blushed. “You’re an unmarried, single girl. How can you say such words casually? ”

“I may be single, but I’m not a fool, so why can’t I say it? ” Qin Yueshu laughed. “Besides, I’m just curious. I’m only a few years older than you, but you’re more talented in your career than me. You even got married before me. Why do you think the gap between us is so big? ”

Shen Manting gritted her teeth in anger. She didn’t want to talk to Qin Yueshu anymore. She had had no choice but to get married, yet the girl wanted to compete in everything! Shen Manting really wanted to question, “Do you want this ‘blessing’ that I got? ”

“Dr. Shen, happy wedding! ”

“Ms. Shen, happy wedding! ”

The doctors arrived one after another, and they gave their blessings to Shen Manting one after another. A sea of gossipy gazes were directed at Shen Manting.

Everyone in the capital knew that Shen Manting had been engaged to Xue Chenkong since they were young, and they had just registered their marriage the day before. The crowd wondered, “Although they haven’t held their wedding ceremony yet, isn’t Mr. Chenkong a little too anxious? Ms. Shen’s only 18 years old this year. ”

Shen Manting glared at Qin Yueshu, then adjusted her expression and said, “Thank you for your blessings. Let’s get to work. ”

Hearing her business-like tone, everyone was confused and couldn’t help but whisper.

“Ms. Shen’s working right after her marriage? Do all rich people work so hard? ”

“It seems that Dr. Shen was really not willing… ”

“Who knows… ”

…

“If you guys want to speak, please speak louder. After all, I can’t hear you clearly. ” Shen Manting sat at the head of the conference table and glanced at the crowd.

At that, the crowd immediately shut up. Shen Manting was not only a medical genius, but she had also invested in the hospital. Therefore, Shen Manting was not only a doctor, but also the boss.
