Although the man is handsome, just like the average reader in legends, and also has superpowers, and a good, stable job, he's actually a good choice as a marriage partner, but...
His attitude of treating Her Majesty the Queen like prey is definitely not that of a good person!
We must find a way to stop this guy from attacking Her Majesty!
"I……"
Her voice was dry, with a barely perceptible sob.
"I don't care! Anyway... anyway, you can't..."
She was at a loss for words. If the Queen didn't mind, any further objections from her would be meaningless.
Although she knew this guy wasn't a good person, if the Queen had made up her mind about him, knowing Misaki Shokuhou as she did, she definitely wouldn't listen to her advice. The Queen was far more stubborn than she appeared!
If I were to secretly contact the Queen's romantic interest like this, especially under the pretense of feigning illness to investigate, and she finds out, she might dislike me.
But this doctor in front of me looks like the kind of villain you see on TV. Her Majesty will definitely not be happy with him.
Who knows, after we get married, the queen who stays home taking care of the kids every day will cook and look forward to her husband coming home, only to find out that he's out fooling around with some girl in a hotel.
She absolutely does not want to see such a future!
"Oh?"
Higashino interrupted her and took a step closer.
"It's not that I can't give up Misaki."
Junko Hokaze stared at him in astonishment, completely unable to keep up with his leaping thoughts.
She never expected that this person, who just moments ago seemed determined to eat the Queen for life, would suddenly change his tune!
Higashino's gaze lingered on her face, from her cheeks flushed with anger to her slightly trembling lips, and then to her eyes filled with worry and stubbornness. Finally, his gaze, filled with undisguised admiration, slowly moved down and lingered for a moment on her impressive figure, which was even more undulating with excitement and far beyond her years.
"It's better than..."
He leaned forward slightly and lowered his voice even further.
"Why don't you take her place?"
With a deafening roar, Junko Hokaze's mind went completely blank. Replace...replace Her Majesty the Queen? Become his...prey? Or rather, become his successor?
"I...I can't do it!"
She imagined being played with by him, completely plucked and robbed, her precious possessions being deformed and misused, and finally ending up in a hotel...
Years later, she's a stay-at-home mom while Higashino is out fooling around with other girls...
It could even escalate into the worst possible outcome: being used and then discarded...
"why not?"
Higashino pressed closer, a smug smile playing on his lips. He thought that if he became an actor, he might catch the eye of a director.
Yes, of course it's the actor playing the villain! Isn't it great to be a bad guy bullying the cute female lead?
"You're also an elite from Tokiwadai, a Level 4 genius, and as for your physique..."
His gaze swept over her again, with a hint of amusement in his assessment.
"Hmm, she's just as good as Misaki. Besides, since you care about her so much, it's reasonable for you to pay a 'small' price for her, isn't it?"
Junko Hokaze shook her head, overwhelmed by shame, tears welling in her eyes: "No...no..."
Higashino stopped in front of her, so close that she could see the silver glint in his eyes.
The fleeting glimpse of silver momentarily stunned Junko, before her attention was drawn to Higashino's movements.
He reached out a finger and gently lifted Junko Hokaze's chin. The movement was gentle, yet it made Junko Hokaze's hair stand on end, rendering her unable to move.
"Well then, Junko Hokaze."
His voice was deep and clear, carrying a devilish allure and a chilling threat.
"You wouldn't want your noble and perfect queen to end up in the hands of a 'bad doctor with many girlfriends,' would you?"
"Or to put it more bluntly, you wouldn't want your queen to come to the hotel with me and be bullied by me, would you?"
Higashino looked directly into her tearful eyes, awaiting her final choice.
The immense pressure squeezed Junko Hokaze's nerves like a tangible force. On one hand, there was the terrifying future of the Queen's potential downfall; on the other, there was the bottomless abyss she was about to step into...
Her unwavering resolve to protect the Queen ultimately overcame her fear of her own predicament. Tears finally streamed down her face as she bit her lower lip hard.
After a suffocating silence, Junko Hokaze nodded resignedly, very slowly, and with immense difficulty.
"I...I agree."
Her voice was weak and feeble, each word sounding as if she had used up all her strength. She nodded resignedly.
She dared not refuse the man's request. If she did, he would surely continue to pester Her Majesty without hesitation, and judging from Her Majesty's recent demeanor, it was impossible for her to refuse him.
If they are allowed to continue like this, what I just imagined might actually happen in the future.
If he gave up on his own, even if Her Majesty the Queen cares about the man in front of her, she would never take the initiative to pursue a man who has rejected her, right?
As for herself, everything she did was for Her Majesty the Queen, and any sacrifice was worthwhile!
"but!"
She suddenly raised her head, her eyes, blurred with tears, filled with stubbornness.
"Promise me! You won't contact Her Majesty the Queen again! You won't bother her anymore! You can't... you can't treat her like 'prey' anymore! Even if Her Majesty the Queen wants to see you, you must refuse her! Our agreement... you must keep it! If you promise, then I'll let you do whatever you want with me from now on!"
She stared intently at Higashino, awaiting his final answer.
Looking at the tearful yet resilient girl before him, Higashino's eyes flashed with an unfathomable light.
It seems that Shokuhou holds a very high place in her heart, to the point that she can go to such lengths.
"So……"
He gently loosened her hair, his fingers tracing the contours of her cheek, sliding down very slowly and with a certain scrutinizing intent to her chin, then slightly lifting her face to force her to look him in the eye.
"The contract is established."
His wicked smile deepened, his gaze locking onto her cherry lips, which parted slightly in alarm.
"So, to celebrate our agreement, now, kiss me."
Chapter 148 Punishment for corruption in Junzi Fanfeng’s health care room
I've heard that first kisses are always wonderful, but Junko Hokaze doesn't think her first one will be too amazing.
Surely no one would find it pleasant to be forced to kiss by a guy, especially when the person being threatened has to take the initiative.
She wanted to back out, but in order to prevent this guy from bothering Her Majesty in the future, she was willing to make any sacrifice.
Junko Hokkaido went up to Higashino at his invitation, but she closed her eyes because she was both scared and shy.
Then her brain completely shut down.
The texture on my lips is fuzzy, but Dr. Higashino doesn't have a big beard, does he?
Could it be that I remembered it wrong just now?
No, the book says that men's beards should be stiff, this doesn't feel right at all. And how could I be wrong? I'm not a fish, how could I forget whether someone has a beard or not so quickly?
Moreover, a first kiss should be warm and soft, and it's not impossible that strange pink snakes might crawl in or strange slime might run in.
But this feeling is definitely not right!
She suddenly opened her tightly closed eyes, tears still clinging to her eyelashes, her vision blurring for a moment before focusing.
What came into view was not Higashino Yu's hateful handsome face, but a round, green, and cute frog doll!
The comical frog was giving her a "><" expression.
"Pfft...hahahaha!"
Higashino could no longer hold back and burst into a hearty laugh.
He laughed so hard he almost fell over, tears welling up in his eyes, his face radiating the smug satisfaction of a successful prank.
Higashino recorded that scene on his phone, and it would be really interesting to show this photo to the girl in front of him later.
As for now, let him continue to be happy for a while.
The girl's expression—crying from being bullied but forced to endure it and then offering herself up—is both pitiful and inciting.
"you you!"
Junko Hokaze was instantly thrown from hell to heaven, and the huge emotional shift left her speechless.
She took a step back abruptly, pointing at Dongye, her cheeks flushed red as if they were about to bleed, a mixture of shame, indignation, grievance, and annoyance at being mocked.
"That's outrageous! Dr. Higashino!"
"Oh dear, I'm so sorry."
Higashino Yu finally managed to stop laughing, wiping away non-existent tears from the corners of his eyes, a mischievous smile still on his face.
"Seeing how concerned you are about my relationship with Misaki, I couldn't resist teasing you. How about it, was this 'punishment' memorable enough?"
He held up the frog plush toy that had done the great service, poked its chubby cheeks with his finger, then looked at Junko, his tone softening: "This is your punishment for faking illness to deceive the doctor. Remember, there won't be a next time!"
It was only then that Junko Hokaze fully realized what was happening.
Punishment? Punishment by replacing a kiss with a Gekota plushie?
It turns out that all those threats and "alternative" suggestions that made her despair were a malicious prank meticulously planned by this guy! His purpose was to teach her, the "faking illness," a lesson she would never forget.
Realizing that she had been manipulated from beginning to end, Junko Hokaze was so ashamed and angry that she wanted to disappear into the ground.
But at the same time, a huge sense of relief, like surviving a disaster, also welled up inside her. She hadn't been traded away as "prey," and she had avoided that terrible "replacement"... Although the process was humiliating and shameful, the result... didn't seem so bad?
However, his relationship with the Queen is still a mystery, but judging from his tone just now, there is definitely something wrong, right?
I was teased so much just now, and I almost lost my virginity, and all I got in return was punishment...?
She lowered her head, her voice bitter, tinged with a sob and deep embarrassment: "I...I'm sorry, Dr. Higashino...I was wrong, I shouldn't have pretended to be sick..."
"OK OK."
Higashino waved his hand, interrupting her stammering apology. His smile faded, and he became more serious.
"It's good that you admit your mistake and can correct it. Just remember not to fake illness to deceive the doctor. Do you know that you're bothering others? I'm usually very busy!"
If it weren't for her, he would probably be at home teaching Himegami Akisa how to cook right now.
However, being able to unlock such adorable CG scenes meant that this job at the school wasn't entirely fruitless. I successfully made contact with Shokuhou, my right-hand woman, and also used my abilities to bring her under my control, just waiting for her to take root and flourish in the future.
"Here..."
He handed the frog doll in his hand forward.
"Consider this an apology for making you cry. You've been staring at this for a while, and you seem to really like Gekota, right?"
Higashino remembered that Junko loved Gekotas just as much as Mikoto, which is why he changed the candy in his pocket into Gekotas when she closed her eyes.
Modifying reality to this extent is as easy as breathing; it can be done in the blink of an eye.
Junko Hokaze looked up in surprise at the Gekota plush toy being handed to her.
That familiar green figure and innocent big eyes instantly touched the softest part of her heart.
Her favorite frog... How could Dr. Higashino know?
She instinctively reached out and took it, hugging it tightly to her chest. This unexpected gift miraculously diluted most of her shame, anger, and grievances.
"Thank you... thank you, Dr. Higashino..."
She thanked him softly, her voice muffled against the frog plushie. Her face was still flushed, but her eyes had softened considerably. She quietly rubbed the frog plushie against her still slightly hot cheeks.
Higashino watched her hug Gekota, looking like a little girl who had been forgiven for doing something wrong, and a barely perceptible hint of satisfaction flashed in his eyes. He leaned against the edge of his desk, arms crossed, his tone returning to its slightly teasing ease: "As for me and Shokuhou..."
He deliberately dragged out his words.
Junko Hokaze immediately perked up her ears and looked at him nervously.
Higashino smiled slightly: "Of course she is my 'patient'~ What I said before was just a little... well, a little trick in the treatment process."
He blinked, as if to say, "You know what I mean."
