After Becoming A Popular Girl, I Choose My Husband On Planet X - Chapter 10

Bai Zixin stepped into the hospital, her eyes shining with excitement. Bai Zixin and Wen Nuannuan were registered doctors both in this world and on Earth, even though they did not really look like it.

“Director, I’m here~” She waved cheerfully inside, her voice light as if she came for an outing, not for work.

Behind the desk, the S-rank Lu Haonan slowly lifted his head. His deep and calm eyes looked as if they hid the stars of the night sky, carrying a pressure that made people feel safe, yet hard to approach. As an S-rank, he naturally carried the aura of a leader—an aura that made two of her legal husbands feel a threat they had never felt before.

“Zixin, has your work with patients been going smoothly? I heard, not only are your medical skills good, you also carry a… ‘healing type’ special ability.”

Bai Zixin lifted her chest proudly. “Yes! As long as I talk with patients, their sickness gets half better already! I think I might be the medical world’s ‘happy light healer’!”

Lu Haonan gave a small smile, that smile hiding a soft gentleness that was hard to catch.

But before they could keep talking, the door suddenly opened with a loud bang.

Gao Muting and Ye Yibai appeared together. Their faces turned cold at the same time, and their aura came out sharp like blades, pressing the whole room into low air pressure within a second.

“Hello, Director.” Gao Muting’s voice was hard and cold, his eyes sharp as knives. “I am Bai Zixin’s main husband—Gao Muting.”

Ye Yibai stood beside him, pushing his glasses up. His smile carried a trace of possessiveness. “I am also her main husband, Ye Yibai.”

Lu Haonan stayed calm and polite, nodding. “Nice to meet you both. Bai Zixin has good taste. She deserves the strongest protection.”

Bai Zixin’s mind instantly burst into a scene: Oh no, Director Lu’s aura is too strong!

Gao Muting added coldly, “Director, don’t forget, we are her legally registered husbands.”

Ye Yibai smiled and added a sharper line, “But if the Director wants to join the ‘wife protection alliance,’ it’s not impossible—just don’t try to take a position.”

Lu Haonan gave a light laugh, his voice calm but measured. “Don’t worry, I came as a director, not as a rival.”

Bai Zixin raised both hands in surrender, her round eyes looking at the three of them. “Hey, hey, hey… If you keep this up, my brain is going to overheat! I only came to work, how did it turn into a love variety show?!”

The aura among the three men kept clashing, while Bai Zixin’s heart screamed alarms:

—Help! Even hospitals are battlefields now?!

Afternoon sunlight slanted into the hospital lounge.

Bai Zixin curled up on the small sofa, sleeping like a little cat after a battle. Her long hair spread messily, her lashes trembled slightly, and a lazy smile hung at the corner of her lips.

Lu Haonan stood nearby, calling softly, “Zixin, it’s time to wake up.”

She didn’t move.

He reached out, ready to lightly pat her shoulder—

But the door was suddenly pushed open.

Ye Yibai strode in, wearing a light gray shirt and carrying a breakfast bag in his hand, his steps full of force yet still graceful.

When he saw her curled up on the sofa, his eyes softened at once. He walked forward in a few steps and picked her up without hesitation. His hold was steady, as if he had done it countless times before.

“I came to take my wife home.” His voice was calm, yet it carried strong possession.

Lu Haonan nodded with a smile, saying nothing more. “Be careful on the way.”

Ye Yibai looked down at Bai Zixin in his arms, the corner of his lips curving with a small, almost hidden satisfaction.

—This was the scene he most wanted to see today.

In the car, Bai Zixin was still sound asleep, her head resting against his chest like a sticky ball of cotton candy.

Ye Yibai held her close, his other hand gently stroking her hair, his voice soft like a whisper in the night.

“Gao Muting is on duty in the army today…”

“That means…”

He gave a low laugh, his eyes shining with both warmth and calculation.

“Today, for the whole day, you belong only to me.”

This chance to have her all to himself was too precious. If possible, he actually wanted to press Bai Zixin under him on the bed and fiercely… well… f*** her hard…

He forced himself to hold back the tightness rising in his lower body.

When they reached home, he personally changed her into soft loungewear, carefully laid her on the big bed in the master bedroom, covered her with the blanket, and even turned on her favorite aroma diffuser, adjusting it to rose-mint scent.

When Bai Zixin woke up, she sat up sleepily, rubbing her eyes, her face dazed and cute as she looked around.

“Where… where am I?” she muttered in confusion.

At that moment, the door opened. Ye Yibai came in, sleeves rolled up, holding a glass of milk and a hot towel. His face wore the standard gentle smile of a husband.

“You’re awake? Drink some milk first. I’ll help you wipe your face after.”

Half-asleep, Bai Zixin took the milk and sipped it. But suddenly she frowned hard, glaring at him with suspicion.

“Who are you? Don’t tell me… you’re a pervert?”

Ye Yibai froze for a second, then laughed. “I’m your husband.”

Bai Zixin: “…Do I even have a husband?”

Ye Yibai sat down by the bed, his voice soft yet helpless. “I’m the second husband you chose. The first is on duty in the army, and the director is on shift at the hospital. Right now, only I’m here—responsible for full-day companion service.”

Bai Zixin wrinkled her nose, mumbling like a schoolgirl:

“Am I really married? And even… married two at once?” She still felt the illusion that she was on Earth, single as always.

She paused, then blinked suspiciously. “Then… is Director Lu the third candidate husband?”

Ye Yibai: …Should he talk with Gao Muting about how to push out that man named Lu?

He took a deep breath, his mouth twitching with a smile. “Wife, can you please remember first—I’m the main one, not here to fight for a spot.”

Bai Zixin scratched her hair. “I remember you.”

He smiled and rubbed her head. “As long as you remember me.”

Bai Zixin’s head was a mess from his rubbing, and she muttered, “All your names are too similar… Gao Muting, Ye Yibai, Lu Haonan… all three characters, I’m so confused…”

Ye Yibai pinched her cheek, his voice low, gentle, and full of affection.

“Don’t be confused. The three of us will make our own schedule.”

“You only need to—relax and be the wife.”

Bai Zixin blinked with doubt. “Eh, you really divide the work? Then when do I get a weekend ‘husband holiday’?”

Ye Yibai raised his brow. “You want a holiday from us? Fine. Then Monday to Saturday, we switch shifts. Sunday is free for you, how about that?”

Bai Zixin burst out laughing, like a kitten who just licked cream. “You bunch of ‘husband union members,’ you’re really too funny.”

“Then whose shift is it today?”

Ye Yibai leaned close, his voice low and with a hint of tease. “Today is my shift, and it’s—24-hour close service.”

After he said that, he leaned nearer, his breath brushing her lips, his eyes deep. “Wife, since you’re awake, shouldn’t I get some ‘wake-up benefit’?”

Before Bai Zixin could react, a light kiss already fell.

The kiss was neither rushed nor slow, carrying both possession and tenderness, as if he was afraid to startle her, yet also full of long-hidden longing finally finding its place.

She stared at him blankly, her ears quietly turning red.

“…You, you just kissed me.”

“Mhm, I did.” He nodded without guilt. “This is called a morning wife kiss. Medically speaking, it helps release happy hormones, strengthens immunity, and also prevents your forgetfulness.”

Bai Zixin glared at him. “You even explain kissing with medical theory? Did the director brainwash you?!”

Ye Yibai smiled innocently, yet leaned closer. “The director talks medicine. I talk love science. Different jobs, different duties.”

“And I—only treat this kind of wife who loves to act dumb.”

After that, he lowered his head and stole a second kiss, deeper this time. Bai Zixin’s head spun in a daze.

She looked shocked, her face red to her ears, not yet recovered from the kiss. She covered her mouth with her hands, eyes wide like copper bells. “You—you almost made me lose air!”

Ye Yibai blinked innocently, his voice still soft.

“Mhm. If I don’t kiss you, how can I be sure you’re really awake?”

Bai Zixin: “…”

She smacked him with a pillow, embarrassed and angry. “You, you… you always act harmless, but in truth you’re—a wolf in sheep’s clothing!”

Ye Yibai calmly caught the pillow and even placed it neatly aside, still like a gentleman.

“I’m not in sheep’s clothing. You clearly chose me and signed the marriage papers yourself. You raised a loyal, obedient… big-tailed wolf.”

Bai Zixin glared at him. “You admitted it?! So you really planned this!”

Ye Yibai nodded seriously. “Planned, yes. From the first time I saw you, I decided—I’d spend my whole life slowly eating you up, leaving nothing behind.”
In his heart, of course, he thought eating her up completely was a must, but he’d let her adjust first.

He even added, pretending to be serious, “The legal kind, medically certified healthy relationship.”

Bai Zixin’s lips twitched. She wrapped herself in the blanket, leaving only her big eyes showing. “You—you should be written into the Post-Marriage Dangerous Personality Manual! Chapter Two: Looks gentle, but flirts without warning!”

Ye Yibai couldn’t hide his smile. He leaned closer, knocking her forehead lightly with his finger.

“Did you remember? I’m Ye Yibai, the refined-but-devious type of husband. I specialize in treating runaway wives, silly wives, and wives who say no but mean yes.”

He paused, his tone shifting, his eyes turning serious.

“But… I’m only like this with you.”

Bai Zixin: “…” —Her face was so red it could fry an egg.

“You… If you keep talking like this, I’ll really think you secretly studied romance novels for flirting skills…”

Ye Yibai smiled like he just owned the world.
