Chapter 383 - The Stupid and the Black-Bellied

Chapter 383: The Stupid and the Black-Bellied

Su Man was stunned. It seemed that he didn’t expect Cheng Anya to be pregnant as well. He looked surprised and frowned before looking at Bai Ye coldly. He mocked, “Aren’t you a genius doctor? Why didn’t you find that out the other day? You are not worthy of that title.”

Bai Ye’s gentle smile was like a breath of fresh air. His calm eyebrows gave a warm feeling and he seemed to not mind Su Man’s sarcasm at all. “Why are you blaming this on me? You didn’t realize it either.”

The last time Cheng Anya was examined was eight days ago. At that time, she was only pregnant for two days and the reaction was not obvious at all. Besides, their attention was all on the virus. How would they have noticed that she was pregnant?

No matter how detailed the examination was, Su Man’s research laboratory was for the study of viruses. Hence, blood analysis would not have such details. Moreover, they were not gynecologists. It would be strange if they had found out.

It had nothing to do with his medical skills.

Su Man snorted coldly. “I’m not a doctor.”

Beauty Su had pushed all the responsibilities completely in a sentence. He wasn’t considered a doctor in the traditional sense. Therefore, it was normal for him to not be able to diagnose Cheng Anya’s pregnancy.

However, as a genius doctor, Bai Ye had not realized it either. It was definitely because his medical skills were not there yet.

Bai Ye was silent. ‘Beauty Su, humans must be kind to one another.’

Beauty Su obviously didn’t know what ‘kindness’ was and pursed his lips. “Pregnancy has nothing to do with the virus attack. We’ll just detoxify her as we discussed. What’s more to discuss?”

Bai Ye shook his head and smiled awkwardly. “You can’t say that. The child that Anya is pregnant with is likely to be infected with the virus.”

“Abort it.” Su Man was practical and firm. “This is a virus cell. If the child is infected with it since birth, who knows what kind of monster will be born?”

Bai Ye’s eyes narrowed and he looked serious. He had also thought about this problem. The cells of viruses were different from other viruses. They can change the human gene cells and he was really worried that the child would be born with a gene mutation or turn into a cyborg.

It would definitely be tragic.

But, everyone was looking forward to the birth of the baby now and it would be too cruel to tell them that the baby had to be aborted.

“What if the child is not infected with the virus?” Bai Ye asked.

Su Man sneered. “Do you really need to ask such an idiotic question? What kind of genius doctor are you? Why don’t you understand this basic medical knowledge? This child is basically growing up in virus cells. The baby might not be infected? How could you even have this kind of thought?”

“Beauty Su, our medical judgment may not be fully accurate. It might be possible.” Bai Ye was not afraid of Su Man’s sarcasm at all and put forward his own judgment calmly.

The expression of the Beauty Su turned dark, cold, and fierce. He looked at Bai Ye with sinister eyes. “Call me Beauty Su again and I will poison you to death.”

Bai Ye kept quiet while Su Man stood against the wind with his clothes that were whiter than snow, black hair, and silver belt. His long hair fluttering under the moonlight was exceptionally surreal, as if he was an immortal who came from the ancient times.

He was worthy to be called a beauty.

Besides, didn’t Ye Wei and the young kid address him as Beauty Su as well? Why couldn’t he do that? Was that discrimination?

It seemed that Su Man could guess what Bai Ye was thinking about and Su Man’s expression grew even colder. The powerful vibe he gave off despite not being angry was very frightening.

Bai Ye knew what to do was the best for him and stopped calling him a beauty. Su Man’s fighting skills were not as good as his, but he had a lot of poison with him. He didn’t know what kind of poison would be flicked on him if he raised his hands.

“I’m here to talk to you about Anya and her baby. Ning Ning wants this child very much. Can you bear to see him disappointed?” Bai Ye played his trump card. He knew that all of them loved Ning Ning very much.

Being young is an advantage, but the key reason was that he was really lovable. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have undergone so much just to protect Third Young Master Ye and Cheng Anya.

Su Man quieted down as expected. “We have to wait for the baby to be older to be sure. If it’s really infected with the virus, we can’t have it. This virus is extremely unstable and it may mutate during the whole pregnancy, causing other effects. Of course, if they want to gamble on it, I have no opinion.”

It was a bet on if the virus would combine with the cell layer or not. If it did, Cheng Anya would give birth to a superman child that might even be more terrifying than Ning Ning. However, the chance for that to happen was slim. Even adults couldn’t combine the cell with the virus, not to mention an unborn baby.

Bai Ye was silent. He understood what Su Man had said.

“If it is really infected, would the antidote work?” Bai Ye asked.

“There is an eighty percent chance that it would not work as it would not be the first or second wave of infection but a natural virus carrier. The antidote would be useless,” Su Man said calmly. Just like a person who had been drinking poison since she was a child, she would become a poisonous person. In that case, the antidote would be totally useless.

Bai Ye was shocked.

“Do you have any idea of how to solve this?” Bai Ye raised his eyebrows and asked. He then touched his chin and laughed hysterically. “Who said that I don’t deserve to be called a genius doctor? You aren’t that great either. Everyone is only skilled at their own expertise. This is not mine.”

Anger flashed past Beauty Su’s eyes. He didn’t reply directly to him. “Okay, I’ll keep this on my mind. I’ll talk about it tomorrow.”

He stood in the moonlight as if he was integrated into it. The cold and stern look and his sharp and proud eyebrows were obviously filled with indifference and the intention to send him off.

Bai Ye stood still without moving and looked at Su Man with a smile. His handsome face was as calm as the lake in March and it seemed that he had not heard what he said.

Su Man sneered. With a cold look, he asked, “Anything else?”

“What are you angry about? A man shouldn’t be so petty, right?” Bai Ye said calmly. “I didn’t mean it. Moreover, you should have cooled down since you have slapped me.”

His voice was calm, but it had a hint of suppression, which was not less intimidating than Su Man’s.

He knew why Beauty Su was so rude to him.

Bai Ye was an introverted person who had hardly lost his temper. He was either indifferent or smiling. The impression of him was always that he was a gentleman who was elegant and handsome. But in fact, he was an extremely domineering and arrogant person. His arrogance and dominance were integrated into indifferent and calm appearance, which gave people the illusion of him being a gentleman.

Whereas Su Man, on the other hand, was too lazy to disguise himself. He was noble and arrogant, but also introverted. However, he was not like Bai Ye. There was a layer of ice covered on his introversion.

Cold and fierce.

“Say whatever you want and scram.” Su Man shouted at him impolitely.

Bai Ye smiled. His long clothes which made him look calm and elegant was beautiful like jade. He raised his eyebrows jokingly. “Did it really matter a lot to you?”

Su Man gazed coldly at him and danger flashed past his dark eyes. Bai Ye smiled in return. The ice that was covering him seemed to have encountered a warm breeze. Su Man’s expression grew colder gradually while Bai Ye smiled and stayed silent.

The two of them recalled the accident that had happened in the research room that day.

They had spent almost eight days alone to work together for the antidote of the virus. With the help of Bai Ye, Su Man had saved a lot of effort. He was good at developing the antidote, but Bai Ye was better.

After all, they had their own expertise. Their purpose and aim of research were different. Hence, they had their own strengths and made up for each other.

Su Man didn’t like Bai Ye very much as he felt that Bai Ye had the intention to compete with him. He had originally thought that Bai Ye had overestimated himself as he was capable enough to do so anyway. He was proud and did not care much about Bai Ye’s title as the ‘genius doctor’.

But gradually, after a few days of work, he realized that Bai Ye lived up to his reputation and that he had real talents. He was extremely gifted in terms of medical skills. Both of them had cooperated very well, which led to common topics and a warm relationship between them.

Heroes would always treat each other with respect, not to mention geniuses like them who were unbeatable in their own expertise.

Once people were familiar with each other, they had no taboo in their speech. It was embarrassing for two adult men, in the case where one of them was gay, to mention the topic of being gay.

Su Man obviously didn’t want to talk about it too much. Bai Ye was quick-witted and didn’t probe further.

Who knew Su Man would break a bottle of reagent accidentally and Bai Ye would slip when he was cleaning up after him…

There was always such an episode in television dramas where the male lead falls down due to some reasons and knocks down the female lead, kissing her on the lips accurately. Thus, this adulterous moment happened.

However, that would only happen in television dramas. Those scenes happened frequently in movies too and the audience was used to seeing them. Only the actors were happy to act that out. It was a classic adulterous moment, but it didn’t work for Su Man and Bai Ye at all. Why?

With Bai Ye skills, he could walk freely even if the ground was full of oil. Even if he fell, he would find ways to stand back up before reaching the ground. However, after realizing that he had knocked down Su Man, he was distracted and went into a daze. It was bad. Su Man was caught off guard and had fallen down too.

Actually, there was nothing to be angry about knocking him down as it was just an accident. By right, Su Man shouldn’t be this angry.

The most important thing was that there was still a missing part in this classic scene, which was falling down and kissing. Without kissing, it wouldn’t be considered as a classic scene. It was not an accident at all. The kiss was intentional.

And there was no pause in between, from him falling to kissing, which made it seem like an accident. However, Su Man wasn’t someone easy to deal with and he knew Bai Ye inside out.

He was stunned for four seconds, then raised his hand and slapped Bai Ye.

At that moment, Su Man was really angry. He clearly felt that Bai Ye’s gaze had changed, but it was already too late to push him away.

He was molested by someone else for the first time in his life.

This was fundamentally different from Ye Wei’s seduction and attraction. At least, Wei Wei had never kissed his lips.

A slap in the face by Beauty Su for a kiss was not a loss for Bai Ye at all.

It was Beauty Su’s first kiss while it was the first time Bai Ye was beaten by someone else. They were even. Who knew that Beauty Su would turn against him and treat him like a stranger?

“Are you seeking your own death?” Su Man narrowed his eyes dangerously and was cold and fierce. When he mentioned it again, he recalled the amazement and hesitation in Bai Ye’s gaze and felt severely humiliated.

If he wanted to die, he wouldn’t mind doing him the favor.

They had just mentioned the topic of homosexuality before Bai Ye jokingly said that most gay couples could not last for a long time, and that everyone was just curious about it. This remark made Su Man very unhappy.

But it was undeniable that what Bai Ye said was the truth.

He also knew that Bai Ye was different from him. He liked women and was a straight man.

Then what was the kiss for? Was he just curious as well? Or was he coveting his beauty?

Su Man was a true man. He was not ashamed that he was gay, but he was regarded as a woman by another man. One could imagine how angry he was, given that he was always arrogant and looked down on others.

It was the first time in his life that he felt so restless.

“No, I still want to live a hundred years more,” he said with a smile.

Su Man snorted coldly. A flame was lit in his cold eyes. “Scram, or I will be merciless.”

He walked off after saying that, leaving Bai Ye his cold, sharp and indifferent back view.

Bai Ye tucked his hands behind and stood up. He was handsome and modest. The corners of his lips curved gradually. How could he dislike someone both handsome and talented like him?

Bai Ye was very confused.

Why did he kiss him? Bai Ye didn’t know the reason as well. It seemed to be an uncontrollable action. At the moment when he was falling, the fragrance that he was familiar with those few days had filled his nose and breath.

It was humiliating for a man to smell good, but Su Man had been fiddling with flowers and plants all day long and the smell was all over the yard. He had long integrated this kind of fragrance in him, as if he was born with this special charm.

They were very close to each other. Maybe because his fragrance was too attractive, or maybe because the color of his lips was too charming, he felt like he was being possessed. A kiss would have felt good. It was as if lightning had struck. Bai Ye had already felt the warmth touch on his lips and kissed him without realizing what he had done.

It couldn’t be said that it was an accident. He had done it on purpose.

Bai Ye looked at the magnificent garden and felt a little confused as he couldn’t figure out why. He went out of Su Man’s court while being deep in thought and didn’t notice that Su Man had been staring at his back view with his cold and fierce eyes all along.

‘Hmmph!’

Su Man snorted coldly. If one dared to take advantage of him, one would need to exchange with things that were of the same level.

The noble and elegant man smiled.

It was as though he had seen his prey fall into his trap.
