Chapter 88: Check Your Brain

"Last night, when you were breaking up with your boyfriend, I happened to be eating there," Ye Bufan said mockingly. "I didn't expect you to be so efficient. You broke up last night and are already on a blind date today."

"Of course, a narrow-minded man like that isn't worth my lingering over. I want to show him that I can find a better man without him."

Zheng Yuanxiang seemed completely oblivious to Ye Bufan's sarcasm, saying righteously, "Since you already know, I'll save myself the explanation and just tell you my conditions now. As long as we're together, no matter how much property or real estate you have, it must all be transferred to my name. No matter what happens at home, my decision must be final."

Ye Bufan's face showed a hint of mockery. He wanted to see how brain-dead this woman truly was and asked, "Anything else?"

"Also, I'm a woman, so all the housework like cooking, washing clothes, and buying groceries should be your responsibility. Don't even mention that I'm pregnant now; even if I weren't, I wouldn't do those chores."

"Then I don't understand. If I do all these things, what do you usually do?"

"That depends on my mood. I'm a woman; I do what I want. If I don't feel like doing anything, I'll drink tea, listen to music, dance, or go out with friends. In short, I do whatever I want, without needing your permission or approval."

Ye Bufan sneered, "Why?"

"Because I'm a woman! It's always right for a woman to be good to herself," Zheng Yuanxiang said self-righteously. "Don't feel unbalanced; this is how I was with my previous boyfriend."

Ye Bufan shook his head and said, "It's a pity. There might only be one man in this world who would treat you like that, and you betrayed him."

"What do you mean by that? Am I wrong? Can't you men be more open-minded? As Chinese men, don't you know in your hearts that you can't compare to black men in that regard? Is there anything wrong with me trying it out and enjoying the pleasure of being a woman? Although the pregnancy was an accident, it's my belly, and I'll have a child with whomever I want, without needing anyone's permission."

Ye Bufan felt that if he continued talking, he wouldn't be able to suppress the anger in his heart. He said, "How you live is your right, and having a child with whomever you want is also your right, but not being able to accept a woman like you is my right. (To be continued) I think there's no need for us to talk anymore. Goodbye."

"What do you mean?" Zheng Yuanxiang's face instantly darkened, and she said angrily, "You're not going to be as narrow-minded as that man, are you? Can't you men be more tolerant of women?"

Ye Bufan shook his head and said, "I think you should get your head checked."

"You're saying I'm sick? Can't you have some manners?"

"Not only is your brain sick, but your body is also sick," Ye Bufan said. "Chinese people and black people each have their own advantages; I won't comment on who is better or worse. But one thing is certain: the HIV infection rate among black people is the highest in the world. Congratulations, you've won the lottery. Now you and the child in your belly have both been infected with the HIV virus. Hurry to the hospital for treatment, and while you're at it, get your brain treated too."

Zheng Yuanxiang said furiously, "How dare you curse me?"

"I'm not cursing you; I'm a doctor, just giving you a humanitarian reminder. If you want to die, that's fine, but don't harm the child in your belly. I advise you to abort it quickly."

"You're talking nonsense! I just had a check-up at the hospital yesterday. If I had any illness, the doctor would have told me already."

Ye Bufan said, "I'm not sure about that. Perhaps the notification is on its way."

"You…"

Just as Zheng Yuanxiang was about to say something, her phone suddenly rang in her bag.

She glanced at the phone number, her expression changed slightly, and then she pressed the answer button.

"Is this Ms. Zheng Yuanxiang? This is Jiangnan City Central Hospital. Based on our hospital's examination, it has been preliminarily confirmed that you and the fetus in your belly have both been infected with the HIV virus. Please come to us immediately for treatment…"

Before the other party could finish speaking, Zheng Yuanxiang's face turned pale, and the phone in her hand fell to the ground with a smack, shattering into pieces.

"I'll give you a piece of advice: if you don't court death, you won't die!"

After Ye Bufan finished speaking, he strode out of the room. Just as the old Chinese saying goes, "a pitiable person must have something hateful about them." He had no sympathy for a woman like this.

After he left, Ouyang Lan immediately came up to him, asking excitedly, "Son, how did it go with that girl? I saw her just now; she's quite pretty."

Ye Bufan briefly explained what had happened. Ouyang Lan's expression changed dramatically upon hearing it: "How can there be such a person? Pregnant and running out for a blind date, and (To be continued) also having such a dirty disease? Isn't this just tricking people?"

"Mom, I told you blind dates aren't reliable. Why don't we just go back?"

Ye Bufan said, turning to walk back, but Ouyang Lan pulled him back. "Son, don't be in such a hurry to leave. People like that are a minority after all. The next girl definitely won't be like that. Give it another try."

Ye Bufan had no choice but to follow Ouyang Lan to the next stop, which was a teahouse.

Shortly after entering, a tall girl walked in. Before she even entered the door, a strong scent of cosmetics wafted over.

Upon seeing this girl, he finally understood what "heavily made-up" meant.

The girl was quite direct. She sat down and said, "I'm very busy; I have another blind date soon. Let me tell you my requirements first. If you can meet them, we'll continue talking. If not, there's no need to waste each other's time."

Ye Bufan said, "Then tell me."

"Well, I have a bit of a bad temper, I'm a little willful, I love shopping, I love karaoke, I love playing mahjong, and I don't like doing housework. My daily expenses are also quite high; all my cosmetics are Chanel brand. I'm allergic to other brands. Can you accept all of this?"

Ye Bufan said playfully, "Those aren't problems. Just tell me if you can take a punch!"

"Hmph! Rude. No need to waste time with someone like you."

The woman grabbed her small bag, twisted her hips, and walked out the door.

Ye Bufan shook his head. What kind of people was he meeting on these blind dates?

After leaving, Ouyang Lan saw his displeased expression and came forward, asking, "Son, what's wrong? Is this one not good either?"

Ye Bufan briefly explained what had happened, then said, "Mom, let's go home. Blind dates really aren't reliable."

"Son, there's one last one. Since we've already made an appointment, we should at least see her."

"Mom, we really can't see anymore. I promise I'll bring you a girlfriend."

Ouyang Lan said, "Son, I promise you this is the last one. If it doesn't work out, I won't arrange any more blind dates for you in the future, but we have to see this one."

"Mom, we're agreed then. You can't force me to go on blind dates anymore."

Ye Bufan reluctantly agreed and followed Ouyang Lan to the third blind date location.
