I Am Her Secret Beauty and Strong Alpha (GL) - Chapter 5

Mu Xi looked at her, the perfect butler smile almost failing.

“I am willing, Miss Nan Xi.” The half of her body that had retreated out the door had to come back in, Mu Xi soothed her, “I will accompany you through the physical examination, please don’t worry.”

Nan Xi released her wrist and followed Doctor Anna to do the physical examination. Mu Xi stayed by her side, occasionally exchanging a few words with the doctor to maintain a friendly relationship.

It turned out that Nan Xi was 1.7 meters tall. She was half a head shorter than Mu Xi. Mu Xi had only thought she wasn’t short, but didn’t expect that she was actually considered quite tall among ordinary people.

But then again, children from wealthy families might have poor health, but their nutrition would definitely keep up.

“Miss Nan Xi, please open your mouth.”

Nan Xi obediently opened her mouth wide, and Doctor Anna, wearing a small light on her head, carefully examined her oral cavity.

“Miss Nan Xi, please put your head here and look here—”

Nan Xi obediently rested her chin on the instrument and looked seriously at the spot Doctor Anna indicated.

“Miss Nan Xi, please extend your hand. I will draw bl00d from your finger.”

Nan Xi extended her right hand. Just as Doctor Anna was about to prick her finger, she immediately pulled it back.

She turned her head to look at Mu Xi and extended her left hand towards her expressionlessly:

“Butler Mu, I’m a bit faint at the sight of bl00d.”

Mu Xi gently held her hand. Her hand was a size larger than Nan Xi’s, just enough to completely enclose Nan Xi’s hand in her palm.

Feeling the reliable warmth from the hand in hers, Nan Xi calmed down and watched Doctor Anna use a thin tube to fill a small vial with her bl00d. She only felt a bit cold but was otherwise fine.

Doctor Anna and the assistant didn’t think anything was wrong. They had seen many wealthy people, and the personalities of the wealthy were often quite eccentric. Needing a butler to accompany them for a physical examination couldn’t be considered the most bizarre thing.

Moreover, omegas indeed needed more care and pampering. They were mostly insecure, liked to act spoiled, and liked to cling to others…

So, after discussing with Mu Xi, they had specifically arranged for the physical examination to take place in the Nan family’s greenhouse garden. Surrounded by sunshine and flowers, Miss Nan Xi would feel more comfortable and happy during the examination.

When it came to the ultrasound examination, Doctor Anna asked Nan Xi to lie down and lift her clothes to fully expose her abdomen.

Fortunately, the dress Nan Xi was wearing was a two-piece set. She carefully pulled her top up and unzipped her skirt, pulling it down a little.

The assistant was preparing the coupling gel and then adjusting the equipment.

Mu Xi saw Nan Xi’s smooth, flat abdomen, which seemed even whiter than her face.

Nan Xi’s body was beautiful, so beautiful that Mu Xi hesitated for a moment whether she should look away, but then worried that Nan Xi would blame her for being distracted.

Soon, she thought of a foolproof plan, which was to stare at the display screen in front of Doctor Anna, even though she couldn’t actually understand anything on it.

When the coupling gel touched Nan Xi’s stomach, the cold, sticky sensation made Nan Xi frown and hum softly.

She looked at Mu Xi and noticed that Mu Xi was staring intently at the instrument. She couldn’t help but sneer, “Butler Mu, can you understand ultrasound images?”

Mu Xi quickly glanced at Nan Xi’s abdomen covered in coupling gel and sincerely replied, “No, Miss Nan Xi.”

“Then why are you looking?”

“I thought that perhaps if I looked a little longer, I might understand. Miss Nan Xi’s health is more important than anything.”

Nan Xi didn’t speak, lying there somewhat blankly, letting the assistant slide the probe over her stomach, as if she couldn’t feel the cold or the itch.

After the examination, the assistant brought a tissue to wipe off the coupling gel from Nan Xi’s stomach.

Mu Xi turned on her Bluetooth earpiece and whispered to the maids outside, “Prepare hot water for Miss Nan Xi,” to protect Nan Xi’s stomach from catching a cold. Then, she smiled and extended her hand to the assistant:

“Let me do it.”

Mu Xi took the tissue from the assistant and wiped Nan Xi’s abdomen. Her movements had to be very careful and gentle. However soft Nan Xi’s stomach was, she had to be even softer, otherwise, she might accidentally hurt Nan Xi.

Butler academies had special courses teaching alphas how to control their strength to prevent damaging the employer’s belongings or the employer themselves. Mu Xi had received excellent grades in this course.

Nan Xi stared blankly down at Mu Xi wiping her stomach.

Her emotions at this moment were very complicated, extremely complicated.

She wanted to know how much of Mu Xi’s considerate actions towards her were because she was her butler, and how much came from Mu Xi’s own feelings.

The answer would probably disappoint her greatly.

That’s why she hated her.

When it came to the electrocardiogram, Doctor Anna paid special attention. This was because Mu Xi had told her that Miss Nan Xi sometimes had unstable emotions and was prone to trembling when angry or sad, and these strong emotions could easily harm her heart.

She said seriously, “Miss Nan Xi, please take off your top. Next, we will perform an electrocardiogram for you.”

Upon hearing this, Mu Xi immediately took two steps back, turned around, and kept a certain distance from Nan Xi.

When Nan Xi looked up, Mu Xi was already far away, as if she were some man-eating monster, while Nan Xi had become a lamb that could die at any moment.

While taking off  her top, she casually asked, “Why are you backing away so much?”

“I’m sorry, Miss Nan Xi.” Mu Xi’s face flushed slightly as she faced away from Nan Xi. “I cannot offend you.”

“We’re both women, what does it matter?”

Mu Xi was extremely embarrassed. “I’m sorry, Miss Nan Xi, I… my estrus is approaching, so…”

Estrus, huh.

Nan Xi’s eyes became vacant. In her memory, Mu Xi’s estrus indeed occurred once in summer and once in winter, and it was a very troublesome period…

Speaking of which, Nan Xi hadn’t smelled Mu Xi’s pheromones for a long time. Usually, for social etiquette, everyone used gland patches to cover the diffusion of pheromones, but Nan Xi really liked Mu Xi’s pheromones.

Recalling that slightly bitter orange scent, Nan Xi couldn’t help but lick her lips and asked Mu Xi with great interest:

“How many days until your estrus?”

Doctor Anna and the assistant finally felt that something was a bit off.

An omega asking an alpha when their estrus was a very ambiguous thing, and its sensitivity could almost be considered a sexual innuendo.

The family doctor glanced at Mu Xi with extreme subtlety. She had to admit that this female alpha butler did look quite… appetizing.

Tall, with deep features, and her rank probably wasn’t low either. No wonder she had caught the eye of the young Miss Nan.

But to start asking about such things in front of them was still a bit too blatant.

They silently maintained their silence, only quietly attaching the electrodes one by one to Nan Xi’s chest, keeping mum about these secrets of the wealthy.

Mu Xi, of course, understood the implication. She was an adult, and her job was so special that she often heard such coded language, so she felt very embarrassed.

Most importantly, she felt that Nan Xi was just a bit aloof and innocent. Asking this question was just a casual inquiry and didn’t have the meaning others thought it did.

She tried to salvage her image and reputation in front of the doctors: “Thank you, Miss Nan Xi, for your consideration of your subordinates’ physical condition. You have always paid great attention to the health of us domestic staff, whether in daily life or…”

“When is it?” Nan Xi interrupted her again.

“…”

Mu Xi gave up struggling and honestly replied, “A dozen or so days, not necessarily accurate.”

Nan Xi nodded with satisfaction and then began to threaten the doctors who were performing the electrocardiogram on her: “You, you are not allowed to tell anyone.”

“Please rest assured, we will swear to defend your personal privacy with our lives.”

What Nan Xi didn’t want them to reveal was Mu Xi’s estrus, because alphas were often at their most vulnerable during their estrus.

What the doctors guaranteed not to reveal was that the young Miss Nan was actually having an affair with the butler.

Mu Xi, who saw through everything, was exhausted.

She knew that every butler in a wealthy family would carry some blame, but this kind of scapegoating was too much…

Because it was a one-on-one private service, the reports for various tests came out quickly, and Doctor Anna soon received the results of Nan Xi’s physical examination.

She smiled and congratulated Nan Xi:

“Miss Nan Xi, although your physique is weaker, the examination results show that there is nothing wrong with your body. Overall, you are very healthy.”

Nan Xi looked as if she had known this all along and showed no particular emotion.

Mu Xi saw the doctors off at the door, then went to the living room and said a few words of apology for the wait to the family psychologist who had been waiting, confirmed the dinner menu with the maids, and asked for a first-aid kit.

After that, she returned to Nan Xi’s side: “You can have a psychological consultation with Doctor Zhang at any time.”

Nan Xi was idly flipping through her physical examination report, as if she wasn’t listening to Mu Xi. Suddenly, she said out of the blue, “Don’t you think I’m very spoiled?”

In fact, Nan Xi wasn’t spoiled at all. During her five years abroad, she declined Nan Zhiyai’s offer to arrange a personal assistant for her, lived alone, and did everything herself. Although she occasionally encountered problems, she never complained.

After seeing Mu Xi again, her temper seemed to have returned. Sometimes she acted out inexplicably, but that wasn’t her intention.

Mu Xi replied fluently, “Not at all, Miss Nan Xi is the strongest person I have ever met.”

Nan Xi curled her lips mockingly.

Mu Xi calmly returned her smile. Not only that, but she also took the first-aid kit she had requested earlier from a maid and asked Nan Xi to sit down in the greenhouse garden.

Nan Xi was puzzled but still sat down.

Sitting amidst the colorful and vibrant roses, her nose filled with the faint fragrance of the flowers, Nan Xi sat there confusedly and saw Mu Xi kneel on one knee in front of her, open the first-aid kit, and then lift her calf.

It was the mark left from bumping into the bathtub in the morning, and Mu Xi had noticed it when she was doing the physical examination.

She hadn’t said anything, but immediately asked for the first-aid kit after the examination, preparing to give Nan Xi some simple treatment.

Nan Xi felt a sudden surge of bitterness, suppressing the lump that rose in her throat as if trying to be brave, and said to Mu Xi, “You are quite meticulous.”

“It is my honor to handle these details for Miss Nan Xi.”

Mu Xi applied the cool ointment to the redness on Nan Xi’s calf, which reminded her of the coupling gel on Nan Xi’s stomach during the ultrasound examination.

Transparent, sticky, adhering to Nan Xi’s soft abdomen.

It looked very beautiful.
