The Understated Dragon Lord

Chapter 339 Honey's Examination

"I did stop your pain with that needle earlier, but it was only temporary. Your menstrual cramps haven’t been completely cured. Later, I need to go to the herbal market to get some medicine; I can pick up what you need, too. If you don't believe me, so be it. But if you do, once I get the medicine, I'll continue your treatment."

"Country boy, better not be playing tricks on me! If you try anything, you'll have to answer to me."

"Do something improper? To you? Out of all the women in the world, you're the last one I'm interested in. Even if we're in the same room, or if you put on a seductive dress, it wouldn't stir a thing in me. No matter how you try to entice me, I won’t spare you a glance."

"You... you’re just being obstinate!"

Brittany was seething. She felt humiliated. She was popular, with countless men pursuing her, and this country boy had the audacity to say he wasn’t interested?

After considering Daniel's comments, Brittany realized something.

"Country boy, don’t think I can’t see through your plan. You’re using reverse psychology to provoke me into putting on a sexy dress, right? Dream on! I’d rather let a dog see me in a sexy dress than you!"

"A dog? Wow, didn't realize you went so wild, Brittany!"

"I... I’ll throw you off a cliff!"

In a fit of rage, Brittany grabbed a pillow from the bed and hurled it at Daniel. He punched the flying pillow, which ricocheted back onto Brittany's face and knocked her onto the bed.

"Country boy, I'll kill you!"

Although a pillow didn't hurt, Brittany was more than a little angry. She pounced, pinned Daniel down on the bed, and started punching him. Daniel wriggled about, inadvertently getting more than his share of contact, although Brittany was too busy doling out punishment to notice.

After ten minutes of tussle, Brittany lay exhausted on the bed, while Daniel was still full of energy.

"Brittany, you were so feisty a moment ago. Come on, keep hitting me! Are you too tired to stand now? How amusing!"

"I... I’ll kick you to death!"

As Brittany tried to kick him again, Daniel caught her leg in his grasp. Right then, his phone rang with a call from Jessica.

Oh no! Why is she calling during the daytime? For some reason, Daniel felt unexplainably nervous.

"Don't make a sound!" he whispered to Brittany before answering.

"Boss... uh, anything you need me for?" Daniel stumbled over his words.

Sensing something odd from the way he switched from "honey" to "boss," Jessica became suspicious. "What are you doing? Whom are you with?"

"Who else but your Brittany? I was heading to the herbal market when she caught me on the way. She accused me of skipping work and decided to supervise me. Want me to let her speak to you?"

Switching the phone to speaker mode, Daniel handed it to Brittany.

"Brittany, talk to Jessica and confirm it, or she'll suspect it's not really you with me."

With some skepticism, Jessica asked, "Brittany, is that you?"
