Chapter 242: Chapter 241 Be More Ruthless to Oneself!_1

Thank goodness for Zhou Yuanchao; otherwise, Huo Yingjie really would have had no way to clear his name even if he "jumped into the Yellow River"!

"Xiao Zhou, is that Zhou Yuanyuan still inside?" Director Liu asked, hoping she wasn’t inside because if so, the situation would be relatively easier to resolve.

"She’s still inside. I’ve been at the door the whole time, not daring to go in," Zhou Yuanchao replied, rubbing his hands in anticipation of seeing how Director Liu would handle the situation!

Director Liu entered Huo Yingjie’s dormitory with his assistant, Xiao Mi, and saw someone under the covers on the bed, with a head poking out and black hair scattered across the pillow.

Director Liu approached the bed and asked, "Is that you, Xiao Zhou?"

Zhou Yuanyuan, hearing the voice, lazily opened her eyes and pretended to be surprised, "Ah? Director Liu, what brings you here?"

"Heh, I’d like to ask you the same thing," Director Liu said as calmly as possible. "You’ve been here at the institute for more than a day, it’s not permitted for women to come to the single men’s dormitories. Don’t tell me you weren’t aware of the rule!"

"Yes, it’s not allowed for people to enter, but if Huo Yingjie invited me over, that’s a different matter," Zhou Yuanyuan said calmly, her tone carrying a smug laziness.

"Huo Yingjie invited you?" Director Liu said incredulously. "I know you’re infatuated with Huo Yingjie, but he has already sternly rejected you. So how could he have invited you over?"

Zhou Yuanyuan’s little trick was quite childish.

Compared to this clumsy excuse, Director Liu admired Zhou Yuanyuan’s audacity even more!

Impressive!

Climbing over walls, scaling windows, sneaking into a man’s bed in the middle of the night—that’s not something just anyone could do!

"Yes, not only did he invite me, but also... also..." Even though Zhou Yuanyuan was very bold and obstinate, she was still a girl, after all, and while taking a risk for what she called love, she still felt somewhat embarrassed discussing those intimate things.

Zhou Yuanyuan didn’t finish her sentence and instead directly pulled back a corner of the quilt, revealing red and purple marks on her neck.

"Ah!" Director Liu took in a sharp breath. Huo Yingjie had said that nothing had happened, so where did these marks on her body come from? They couldn’t possibly be self-inflicted by Zhou Yuanyuan, could they?

Heh!

They were indeed self-inflicted by Zhou Yuanyuan!

This woman was ruthless to others and even more so to herself!

Director Liu quickly calmed down and said, "Regardless, this is still the men’s dormitory. You should hurry up and get dressed."

Zhou Yuanyuan saw that Director Liu was half-convinced and, forgetting her shyness, got dressed in front of Director Liu and the assistant Xiao Mi.

Now, all the red and purple marks on Zhou Yuanyuan’s body were fully in Director Liu’s view!

Xiao Mi, who was an unmarried girl, blushed and turned red at the sight of the marks on Zhou Yuanyuan’s body!

Who would have thought that Huo Yingjie, a gentleman on the surface, was actually a beast in his clothing!

Zhou Yuanyuan, with her face flushed, said, "Director Liu, I trust the institute will give me an explanation."

An explanation?

Director Liu had a headache!

"The institution will conduct an investigation," Director Liu said vaguely; she wasn’t as easily deceived by appearances as the young Xiao Mi.

Compared to Zhou Yuanyuan, Director Liu still placed more trust in Huo Yingjie.

Although Zhou Yuanyuan was dissatisfied with Director Liu’s response, she knew better than to rush things and that antagonizing Director Liu would do her no good.

Only if she insisted that she and Huo Yingjie had already consummated their relationship would both the institute and her family in Yanjing support her.

Zhou Yuanyuan, seeing Huo Yingjie outside, blushed and said, "Brother Yingjie..."

Her voice was dripping with sweetness!

Huo Yingjie stepped back, shivering, and said, "You... you... this indecent woman..."

The education Huo Yingjie had received from childhood made it difficult for him to utter explicitly offensive words; this was already the harshest language he could manage!

Zhou Yuanyuan was a woman, and within the specific environment of the research institute, he couldn’t touch Zhou Yuanyuan, but the Zhou Family...

Zhou Yuanyuan felt sad. She did all this for their future together. Why couldn’t Brother Yingjie understand her intentions?

"How... how can you speak of me like this?" Zhou Yuanyuan said sadly, "And it was also you... Now that we’re already like this, why are you still so heartless?"

Huo Yingjie was startled. There was nothing between him and Zhou Yuanyuan!

"You can mess around with food, but you can’t talk nonsense. I have nothing to do with you," Huo Yingjie said, "Not in the past, not now, and definitely not in the future!"

"You can’t say that, you’ve taken my body. I’m already yours, you have to take responsibility for me," Zhou Yuanyuan spoke loudly. She was all in now, she had to succeed this time!

If she succeeded, she would get her wish!

If she failed, her reputation would be ruined!

So, she had to give it her all—she had to succeed!

At that moment, other people heard the noise outside and came out of their rooms one after another. Hearing Zhou Yuanyuan’s words, they gasped in shock!

Zhou Yuanyuan was the belle of the hospital, beautiful, with a reputedly good family background, and many people wanted to get close to her!

However, this high-and-mighty flower already had someone in her heart. And since that person was the most outstanding young talent in the research institute, everyone else gave up, not daring to pursue her.

But Huo Yingjie already had someone else and didn’t like Zhou Yuanyuan, which gave some people ideas, while many others just wanted to watch the drama between Zhou Yuanyuan and Huo Yingjie.

Everyone thought that the previous drama in the cafeteria and at the entrance of the labs was intense enough. They never expected it to escalate to a man’s dormitory today.

Oh my God!

Taken my body?

I’m already yours?

That Huo Yingjie... he’s such a scoundrel, isn’t he?

However, there were also some people who didn’t believe Zhou Yuanyuan’s words.

If Huo Yingjie liked Zhou Yuanyuan, he would have given in under her persistent pursuit long ago, and it wouldn’t have come to this!

"Alright, you two come with me to the office. This matter must be dealt with seriously," Director Liu said with a stern face, urging them to leave quickly. Otherwise, with more and more people gathering, who knows what rumors would arise!

Huo Yingjie was so angry that his face turned pale, and he felt a rush of blood to his head!

Zhou Yuanyuan cried quietly, but inside, she was leaping with joy!

As they passed by many people, everyone was curious!

Before Huo Yingjie and Zhou Yuanyuan even reached Director Liu’s office, the news of Zhou Yuanyuan losing her virginity to Huo Yingjie had already spread throughout the institute.

Chief Engineer Sun also received the news and personally went to inquire. He then went to find Director Li of the hospital and instructed someone to notify the political and educational department’s security office.

Zhou Yuanyuan was a doctor at the hospital, and even if Director Li was busy, he had to come over.

Chief Engineer Sun believed in Huo Yingjie, and he also didn’t want Huo Yingjie to have such a stain on his character!

"How can it be proven that Huo Yingjie didn’t have a relationship with Zhou Yuanyuan?" Chief Engineer Sun asked while walking next to Director Li.

Director Li was skilled in both Chinese and Western medicine, a doctor of great prowess!

Seeing that Chief Engineer Sun asked such a question, he didn’t answer right away but countered, "Are you so certain Huo Yingjie didn’t do such a thing? After all, Huo Yingjie is very young, full of vigor. When a young and pretty girl throws herself at him, many men can’t refuse!"
