Chapter 86: Unable to Complain
After kissing for a while longer, the two finally separated. Ye Bufan chuckled, "Are you trying to take advantage of me or just avoid paying the consultation fee?"
He Shuangshuang wrapped her arms around his neck and said, "No money, but you can have me. Take me if you like."
"If you dare to default on my bill, then I'll kidnap you back to be my Bandit Queen."
Ye Bufan said this, then hoisted He Shuangshuang onto his shoulder and strode out of the residential area.
The two got into the car and returned to the city. It was already past midnight, but He Shuangshuang showed no intention of going home. She said, "I'm hungry. Treat me to a meal."
"Alright, I'll treat you to a meal. Being a doctor to this extent, I'm practically losing money. Free consultations, free medicine, and now I even have to pay out of my own pocket to treat a patient to a meal."
He Shuangshuang giggled, "What, regretting it? Who told you to kidnap me as your Bandit Queen? It's too late to regret it now."
Ye Bufan said, "Tell me, what do you want to eat?"
"Seafood! It's rare to be this happy today, so we should celebrate properly."
He Shuangshuang led Ye Bufan directly to a seafood stall, choosing a table by the roadside and sitting down.
Ye Bufan said, "What? I rarely treat someone, and you want to eat at a street stall?"
"What's wrong with a street stall? I often come here for seafood. The seafood here is especially fresh, and it tastes great."
Ye Bufan said, "I just thought that Young Misses like you should frequent seafood restaurants and the like, right? When did you start eating street food like us?"
"I've never considered myself a Young Miss," He Shuangshuang said. "Actually, the real delicacies are found at these street stalls. The food in those big restaurants only looks pretty; it doesn't taste good at all."
Soon, the waiter brought them the seafood and beer they ordered. He Shuangshuang poured a full glass for both Ye Bufan and herself, then raised her glass and said, "Xiaofan, thank you so much. Cheers."
As she spoke, her eyes gazed intently at Ye Bufan. It was this man who had cured her illness and, at the same time, allowed her to become a true Yellow Level Warrior.
He had given her new life, shaping a completely different He Shuangshuang.
"Cheers."
Ye Bufan clinked glasses with He Shuangshuang and then drained his drink.
The two enjoyed the cool evening breeze, leisurely eating seafood and drinking beer.
Suddenly, an argument erupted nearby.
A Young man in his twenties, his face full of anger, strode forward, followed closely by a Young woman of about twenty.
The woman was quite pretty, and her lower abdomen was slightly bulging, making her appear pregnant.
The woman quickly ran in front of the man, spread her arms to block his path, and angrily shouted, "Li Hongjun, you stop right there!"
The Young man angrily said, "Zheng Yuanxiang, we've broken up. Don't pester me anymore."
"Break up? I'm pregnant! Why are you breaking up with me?"
The woman shouted with an arrogant expression.
There were many people near the street stall. Upon hearing the woman's words, others immediately began pointing and discussing, and even a few passersby with a strong sense of justice stepped forward to scold the Young man.
"The Young man looks refined and even wears glasses, but he's actually a scumbag…"
"Exactly! No matter what, she's carrying your child. You can't just break up with her at a time like this, can you?"
"We Chinese value responsibility the most. Are you even a man acting like this?"
"Since you're so shameless, let's make things clear."
Li Hongjun seemed to have reached his breaking point, shouting loudly in public, "She is pregnant, but the child isn't mine at all! Shouldn't I break up with her then?"
Zheng Yuanxiang shouted, "So what? You're my boyfriend. What does it matter whose child it is? You just need to raise him with me."
When she finished speaking, the surrounding people's eyes shattered, leaving them utterly stunned.
Especially those few who had stepped forward to champion justice, they stood there dumbfounded, unsure of what to say.
Ye Bufan had just taken a sip of beer, but this woman's words almost made him choke and spit it out.
Having lived for over twenty years, it was his first time seeing someone rationalize cheating so righteously and refreshingly. Not only did she cheat, but she also expected him to help raise the child. What kind of logic was that?
At this point, the surrounding people also recovered their senses and began to criticize the woman.
"You, a girl, put horns on him, and you still won't let him break up? What kind of logic is that?"
"Yeah, you're so unchaste, and you still want him to help raise the child? I've lived this long, and it's my first time seeing someone so shameless."
"Young man, you absolutely cannot keep a woman like this. You must kick her out."
Contrary to before, this time everyone unequivocally sided with the man.
But unexpectedly, Zheng Yuanxiang showed no signs of shame. Instead, she righteously shouted, "What are you doing? Can't you be reasonable? My belly is mine. I'll get pregnant with whoever's child I want. What's wrong with that?"
Hearing her words, everyone was momentarily at a loss for how to respond, and the scene fell into silence.
Li Hongjun angrily said, "I don't care whose child you want to carry, but from today onwards, we are completely done. There's no longer any relationship between us."
Zheng Yuanxiang shouted, "Why not? Since you're my boyfriend, you should treat me well, and you should accept everything about me, including helping me raise the child."
"Haven't I been good enough to you? I give you all my monthly salary, you make all the decisions, I'm happy when you're happy, and I have to coax you when you're unhappy.
And what about you? You turn around and put who knows how many horns on me, and even got someone else's child."
Zheng Yuanxiang shouted, "What are 'horns'? That's feudal thinking, okay? What era is it now? You still care about these things.
I'm a woman. Is there anything wrong with trying out a few different men? You East Asian men are inherently not good enough. Is there anything wrong with me trying a Black man?"
With her series of questions, the people around were completely dumbfounded. It wasn't that they agreed with her views, but rather that they were truly speechless at her outrageous ideas.
"You shameless slut, get out!"
Li Hongjun could no longer control his rage. He raised his hand and slapped her across the face, then strode away.
The slap was extremely hard, and Zheng Yuanxiang was directly knocked to the ground, but no one around showed any sympathy.
"A woman like this really deserves a beating. That was too light…"
"Morals are declining, and people's hearts are no longer what they used to be. How can a woman be so shameless…?"
"Shameless, too shameless. No one would pity someone like this even if she died…"
Zheng Yuanxiang climbed up from the ground and vented all her anger on the passersby.
"What are you doing? I'm a woman, I have my own rights. I'll sleep with whoever I want, and my belly is mine. I'll get pregnant with whoever's child I want!
His not wanting me is his loss. I'll find a man who appreciates me sooner or later and find a qualified father for my child."
After saying that, she also quickly left, leaving behind a group of stunned passersby.
