The Luckiest Dumb Doctor

And this doesn’t even include Angela Stuart, who wasn’t that familiar with him.

Was this a collision?

Could it possibly stir up some trouble?

Greg’s internal alarm bells were ringing, and he felt the urge to turn and flee.

However, by the time he thought of this, it was already too late. Liliana Grey had just looked over at him.

Their eyes met, and both were startled.

The difference was that Greg’s scalp went numb, while Liliana’s face lit up with delight.

She walked over with a smile and said, “Greg? What are you doing here?”

The three women turned their heads at the sound of her voice.

Liliana’s eyebrows furrowed slightly, but she quickly returned to normal, although the joyful expression disappeared, and she imperceptibly took a step back, establishing a proper social distance.

“These three are…?”

Liliana paused for a moment, and then teased, “They couldn’t all be your girlfriends, could they?”

Vince Cooper and Ryan Lampe’s faces turned red simultaneously, while Angela Stuart instinctively glanced at Greg, a hopeful look in her eyes, though it was unclear what she was thinking.

Greg said awkwardly, “President Qin, please don’t joke about me.”

“We’re just here to help Mr. Greg buy clothes, not girlfriends,” explained Ryan.

Vince added, “Yeah, just friends, nothing more.”

Liliana, seasoned in the business world, had a sharp eye and immediately sensed something was amiss watching the two girls rush to explain.

Instead of exposing them, she smiled and said, “Oh my, you’re both so pretty. If Boss Greg could have girlfriends as beautiful as you, that really would be commendable.”

Greg was painfully embarrassed and quickly changed the subject, asking, “President Qin, why are you shopping alone?”

“Oh, I had nothing to do this afternoon, so I decided to take a stroll.”

Liliana tilted her head up, her eyes twinkling mischievously as she looked at Greg. She laughed and said,

“I’ve recently started dating a younger guy, and he dresses too lightly. I thought I’d buy him a few winter clothes.”

“Oh, hahaha.”

Greg’s face burned with embarrassment; he wished he could escape immediately under the pretext of using the bathroom.

Ryan, sensing some awkwardness in the air, promptly made herself at home, saying, “That’s perfect, let’s shop together, then. We’re younger and don’t have as good an eye for style, so we could really use President Qin’s help.”

“Huh?”

Greg stood dumbfounded, looking bewilderedly at Ryan.

Ryan was somewhat perplexed and asked, “Mr. Greg, what’s the matter? Did I say something wrong?”

“Uh, no, nothing!”

Greg forced a smile, but inside he was wailing.

This damned girl Ryan, totally unaware of the sensitivity of the situation.

What kind of bad karma is this!

No way, I can’t let them come together.

Determined, Greg quickly said, “President Qin might have other things later; let’s not bother her.”

“It’s okay, who said I had other things? I’ll stay and shop with you guys. It will be great to have Boss Greg try on some clothes for my little boyfriend,” Liliana said.

On purpose, right?

Greg turned his head, somewhat infuriatingly, and glared at Liliana.

Liliana acted as though she hadn’t seen it, walked forward, and took Ryan’s arm on one side and Vince’s on the other. Then she asked with a smile,

“What kind of clothes are you planning to buy for Boss Greg?”

“We’re buying formal clothes.”

“That’s perfect since I want to buy casual clothes for my little boyfriend. After we’re done picking out Boss Greg’s formal wear, we can have him try on casual wear too. It will save us a lot of trouble.”

“Yeah, Liliana really thought it through,” they said.

The three young girls hadn’t even graduated from college; how could they compete with a powerhouse like Liliana Grey?

In just a few words, the four of them mixed together like sisters, chatting and laughing as they walked away, leaving Greg Jensen standing there alone.

Seizing the moment when the others weren’t paying attention, Liliana sneakily looked back and stuck her tongue out at Greg.

The gesture, cute and playful in nature, was interpreted by Greg as mockery—harmless but highly insulting.

Greg’s expression darkened even more.

For the rest of the time, he was like a puppet, being tossed around by the four women.

No sooner had he taken off the clothes Vince had brought him than Ryan and Angela brought over two more outfits for him to try on.

Just when he had finished trying on the formal wear, Liliana brought over a whole bunch of casual wear she had picked out.

“Wrap this one up for me!”

Liliana had chosen a bunch of casual clothes, but only took one to the cashier; she left the rest for Greg.

Vince, looking at the formal wear chosen by the group, stuck out his tongue and said with a flushed face, “Is it too much?”

Chuckling, Greg shook his head and said, “Not at all, I’ll go pay now.”

He carried several sets of formal wear and the pieces of casual clothing Liliana had chosen to the front to pay.

Once the five of them left Zegna, Ryan, holding Liliana’s arm, said with a laugh, “Liliana, how about dinner together tonight?”

“Yeah, we really owe it to Liliana today; otherwise, we wouldn’t have known what would look good on Mr. Jensen.”

Looking pleased with herself, Liliana glanced at Greg and then, smiling, shook her head, “Some other time, I have to go home tonight, waiting to have a late-night snack with my little boyfriend.”

Cold sweat instantly broke out on Greg’s forehead.

He knew that Liliana was hinting at their secret meeting at the Siheyuan tonight, even specifying the time.

The time for a late-night snack.

Ryan, unsuspecting, smiled and said, “Oh, okay then, let’s find another time.”

“Liliana, see you.”

Liliana nodded, gave Greg a smile, and drove off.

Greg let out a long breath and relaxed, turning back to the others with a smile, “Let’s head back.”

“Yeah.”

Vince smiled sweetly and moved forward to link arms with Greg.

Feeling a pang of jealousy, Ryan deliberately took his other arm, saying with a laugh, “I’ll borrow your man for a bit.”

“Hmph…”

Vince gave her a glare but said nothing more.

Angela’s eyes went wide as she silently sighed.

After leaving the mall, they casually bought some groceries at the underground supermarket.

Back home, the women got busy in the kitchen.

Soon, four dishes and a soup graced the table.

After the meal, as the three women chattered away in the living room, Greg pretended to take a phone call and stood up to leave.

Watching Greg go, Angela couldn’t help but ask, “Vince, do you think Mr. Jensen has another woman?”

“That shouldn’t be the case,” Vince replied.

Angela snorted and made a face, “He’s going out this late; he’s definitely going on a date with a woman.”

Vince felt a bit awkward and didn’t know what to say; deep down, she didn’t mind, as long as Greg was happy.

Ryan looked coolly on and said indifferently, “Let him be with whoever he wants. Vince isn’t a fool; she knows what to do.”

“Yeah.”

Angela also felt embarrassed and decided to keep quiet.
