Supreme Hidden Dragon in the City-Chapter 12 Forgot to Bring a Bath Towel

After her shower, Su Qingyan frantically paced in the bathroom.

She hadn’t brought a towel or pajamas, so was she supposed to go out in her wet clothes?

Wouldn’t that make her bath all for naught?

"That guy is downstairs, even if I go out wearing nothing... I should... probably not be discovered, right?"

There were spare clothes in the bedroom upstairs.

Suddenly, Su Qingyan felt a wave of shame.

If others knew that the distinguished Miss Su had considered streaking, she’d never be able to face anyone again.

"What to do, what to do..."

Su Qingyan paced back and forth in the bathroom anxiously.

Suddenly, her feet slipped, and she fell to the ground.

"Ah!" She cried out in pain.

She immediately tried to get up from the floor but realized she couldn’t exert any strength.

Downstairs, Chen Fan waited patiently for Su Qingyan to finish her shower and come out.

When the scream echoed, he immediately looked towards the second floor.

After hesitating for a moment, he still went upstairs.

Upon reaching the bathroom door, Chen Fan asked, "Miss Su, are you okay?"

"I’ve fallen and I can’t get up," came Su Qingyan’s aggrieved voice.

"Don’t panic, I’ll come in now and help you up," Chen Fan said, his hand on the doorknob.

"No way!" Su Qingyan suddenly shouted, "You you you stay out! First go get me a towel, just crack open the door and throw it in, don’t you look inside!"

"Okay." Chen Fan guessed Su Qingyan’s current situation and obediently found a towel.

He complied with Su Qingyan’s demand, cracked the door open slightly, and tossed the towel in.

After a while, Su Qingyan said, "Okay, you can come in now."

Only then did Chen Fan push the door and enter, seeing the situation inside, he quickly covered his eyes.

Su Qingyan’s face flushed to the root of her neck and though she wrapped her body with the towel, the scene in the bathroom still had an air of inadvertent exposure.

"You... you must not look at me, just help me up and get out right away."

Chen Fan took a deep breath, his gaze falling on Su Qingyan’s calf.

There was blood.

Su Qingyan frowned slightly, "I told you not to look at me, you..."

Chen Fan ignored her, realizing the wound needed to be treated quickly to avoid infection, so he walked over, picked her up from the ground.

"What are you doing!" Su Qingyan’s nervous voice began to tremble.

Chen Fan said nothing and carried Su Qingyan straight to the second-floor bedroom.

Su Qingyan felt extremely uneasy.

Was this guy going to behave like an animal again?

How could I be so foolish? He asked me to stay over, and I did, walking right into a trap...

Chen Fan carried Su Qingyan to the bed in the bedroom and then threw a nightgown from the closet to her, "Your leg is bleeding, I’ll go get some medicine, you hurry up and get dressed."

After that, he left the room.

Taking advantage of the moment, Su Qingyan quickly put on the nightgown.

Chen Fan returned with the medicine, sat on the bed, and asked Su Qingyan to lay her leg flat.

He seriously helped treat Su Qingyan’s wound.

Su Qingyan still appeared very tense.

"It’s just a small injury, it’s not a big deal."

"You go out, I can treat the wound myself."

"You..."

"Shut up!" Chen Fan suddenly shouted.

Su Qingyan immediately stopped fidgeting and let Chen Fan treat her wound with a sullen expression.

After a while, Chen Fan finished treating the wound, picked up the medicine box, and headed outside, "Rest early, call me if you need anything."

Only then did Su Qingyan breathe a sigh of relief.

"To still dare to snap at me, how annoying!" She clenched her fists in dissatisfaction, then lay down on the bed.

...

Chen Fan went downstairs and let out a long breath.

"What happened just now? Why did I feel like I was on the verge of losing control?"

The moment Chen Fan picked Su Qingyan up, he felt the desire inside of him magnified limitlessly, his consciousness gradually overtaken by primal urges.

Had he not possessed some strength to firmly suppress that feeling, he might have already battled with Miss Su three hundred rounds by now.

"Miss Su possesses beauty exceptional enough to be a great temptation to me, but not to the level of losing my sanity," he said.

"There’s definitely something wrong here," he reflected.

Carrying his doubts, Chen Fan returned to his room to cultivate.

The next morning.

Chen Fan awoke from his meditative state.

He called out a few times at the door to Su Qingyan’s room with no response, only to discover upon pushing the door open that Su Qingyan had already left.

He went to the kitchen intending to prepare something to eat, only to unexpectedly find a ready-made breakfast already laid out on the dining table.

There was also a note beside it: Thank you for last night.

A smile appeared on Chen Fan’s face as he sat down at the dining table.

Ten minutes later.

Frowning slightly as he swallowed the last bite of his breakfast, Chen Fan thought, "This pampered young miss has a lot of room for improvement in her cooking skills."

...

Qingyan Pharmaceuticals.

Su Qingyan was lost in thought at her office desk.

Her delicate hand occasionally lightly stroked the wound on her leg.

At that moment, someone knocked on the door. She called out indifferently, "Come in."

Secretary Wang entered, "Miss, Old Madam Qin sent an invitation for her birthday banquet this weekend."

"The Qin family?" Su Qingyan looked puzzled.

"The very one Chen Fan married into. For years, they’ve been trying to curry favor with you, Miss. Almost every year they send an invitation to their banquet, but you’ve never attended," Secretary Wang explained.

"Oh, then decline it as usual," Su Qingyan said nonchalantly.

No sooner had she finished speaking did she suddenly remember Chen Fan mentioned last night while drinking with her that he would divorce Qin Lan at Old Madam Qin’s birthday banquet.

Chen Fan, with his simple nature, would naturally be unaware of the motivations behind Qin Lan’s choice to have the divorce at Old Madam Qin’s celebration. Having grown up in a rich family, Su Qingyan understood all the family’s manipulations and strategies completely.

As soon as she heard that the birthday banquet was Qin Lan’s idea, Su Qingyan suspected Qin Lan had ulterior motives.

After pondering for a moment, Su Qingyan quickly added, "Wait, inform the Qin family that I will attend the banquet."

Secretary Wang looked surprised, "Miss, the Qin family is just a third-rate family..."

"Just do as I said," Su Qingyan did not want to explain.

Secretary Wang could only nod, "Alright, I’ll notify them shortly."

"By the way, Miss, when we were investigating Chen Fan last time, we looked into everyone associated with him and discovered something interesting," said Secretary Wang, changing the topic.

"What is it?" Su Qingyan’s eyebrows rose in curiosity.

Secretary Wang smirked mischievously, then pulled out his phone, brought up a foreign 18+ website, and handed it to Su Qingyan.

Su Qingyan glanced at the screen and saw numerous explicit videos with astonishing view counts.

She was baffled as to why Secretary Wang would show her such content. However, upon closely inspecting the video thumbnails, she realized the female lead in those videos was none other than Qin Lan!

Su Qingyan’s eyes widened in shock.

"This woman is Chen Fan’s wife, Qin Lan, and the man is Sun Jiancheng, the vice president of Tiancheng Pharmaceutical. Our company has had some dealings with them. Their relationship has not been clean for a long time," Secretary Wang explained.

"How did they end up making these? Disgusting," Su Qingyan frowned with distaste.

Secretary Wang said with a teasing look, "Sun Jiancheng filmed these, and Qin Lan has no idea. He uploaded them to foreign websites to gain attention and has already amassed hundreds of thousands of fans. Qin Lan probably doesn’t even know that she’s famous overseas. We only found out about this while investigating Sun Jiancheng."

"Put it away; I really don’t get what these people are thinking," Su Qingyan said with disgust.

Secretary Wang laughed as he took the phone back.

Su Qingyan’s eyes flickered, and she looked at Secretary Wang again, "Download those videos for me. I might have a use for them."

Secretary Wang looked shocked, "Miss, you..."

"Enough, don’t overthink it. I have a legitimate use for them," Su Qingyan’s face flushed as she glared at Secretary Wang.

Secretary Wang covered his mouth to hide a snicker, "Okay, I’ll download them and send them to you later."

It was then Su Qingyan remembered the prescription Chen Fan had given her the night before. She took it out of her bag and handed it to Secretary Wang.

"Have Zhang Dequan research this prescription. See if he can produce this medicine," she instructed.

Secretary Wang looked at the prescription and expressed surprise, "Youth-Preserving Pill? Miss, our company’s beauty products aren’t performing well, and with a name like that, this prescription sounds sketchy. Are we still going to pursue products like this?"

Su Qingyan replied, "Since we don’t have any other promising products to release, just look into it casually."

"Alright then," Secretary Wang wasn’t too concerned and left with the prescription.
