It was almost late at night, but there were still many cars coming into and out of the parking lot.
Before getting on the car, Su Yicheng dialed Xiao Chenâs phone.
âI had watched the live show of the Top Model. It was really dangerous,â when he picked up the call, Xiao Chen said. âHowever, how could Ms. Luoâs shoes be broken? Was it an unfair competition?â
âIt is in all probability.â Su Yichengâs sight was deeper than the night. âGo to find out what happened, and let me know once you find out.â
âYes, I know,â Xiao Chen said. âIâll be on it right now.â
Su Yicheng hung up the phone. The driver came over and opened the door for him. âBoss Su, would you like to back to the apartment, or...â
âYou can go off work now.â Su Yicheng interrupted the driver. âI will go back myself.â
The driver was stunned and said, âPlease drive safely.â
Su Yicheng took the key and sat in the driverâs seat, and then drove out of the TV station. He suddenly pulled over and stopped the car in front of a intersection.
Coincidentally, there were two roads. The straight one was the way to home and the turning one was toward Luo Xiaoxiâs home.
His eyesight focused on the intersection of the two roads, and the scene he saw when he went out of the TV station appeared in his head.
Qin Wei came with a bunch of fresh roses. Luo Xiaoxi took the flowers and her smile was more brilliant than the roses. She hooked Qin Wei by his shoulders, which seemed to get well with him again.
They left one by one finally. There was no doubt that they must go for a celebration.
Thinking of that, Su Yichengâs eyesight became darker. He stepped on the gas pedal to turn and drove the car into another road.
At this time, Luo Xiaoxi was still in the bar with her so-called friends.
In the past several years, she spent her time there for almost half of the nights. Every part of her body couldnât be more familiar with rules and music in this kind of place.
Therefore, it wasnât long before she turned back to the one she used to be, to become the focus of all, shining like a proud queen. The only difference was that the queen was not as arrogant as before, and drank as little as possible.
To her surprise, those people didnât boo to ask her to drink liquor when she was drinking juice, but just teased her.
âXiaoxi, you are not like those who only drink juice!â Someone snickered and cued Qin Wei. âQin Wei, did you ask Xiaoxi not to drink?â
âIt must be!â Someone echoed. âWhen I said during the day that we must get Xiaoxi drunk tonight, Qin Wei glared at me and I was terrified to death.â
As they talked, they burst into laughter.
Luo Xiaoxi was aware now that these people didnât dare to joke her and Qin Wei directly, so they connected them in such a subtle way.
âShut up!â
Luo Xiaoxi put the juice cup on the table fiercely and was about to get angry, but suddenly felt something strange with her body.
The temperature in the bar was well controlled, but she felt hot very much.
âForget, just clarify the rumors now.â
As soon as Luo Xiaoxi opened her mouth, Qin Wei came up suddenly and pulled her away.
âWhat are you doing?â She struggled to get rid of Qin Wei. âI have nothing with you. If we donât clarify it now, how long will they misunderstand?â
âYou canât blame them,â Qin Wei said helplessly. âUncle Luo told everyone he met recently that he would arrange our wedding. So all of them think that weâll get married sooner or later.â
âWhat?â Luo Xiaoxi opened her mouth in surprise and took a deep breath, seemed to almost faint.
Then, she glared at Qin Wei angrily. âWouldnât you deny it?â
âDonât I make Uncle Luo lose face if I do that?â Qin Weiâs lips raised slightly but just looked like to be self-deprecating anyhow. âXiaoxi, will you never forgive me for that thing? Do you feel disgusting even if you have the slightest connection with me?â
In the heat of the emotion, Luo Xiaoxi almost nodded.
But once, she and Qin Wei like used to support each other like siblings. She had unburdened herself to Qin Wei, and regarded him as a friend like Su Jianan.
âQin Wei.â her voice became helpless. âWe could have been good friends.â
Qin Wei seemed to breathe a sigh out of his chest. â... Xiaoxi, we are all happy tonight. Can we solve this problem next time? Besides, if you and Su Yicheng are together, the rumor you hate will be broken automatically.â
Luo Xiaoxi just wanted to say something, but suddenly felt that the temperature inside her body was higher, and even the neck was hot.
âGo away.â she frowned and drove Qin Wei.
âWhatâs wrong with you?â Qin Wei found that Luo Xiaoxi looked unusual and stretched out hands to help her. âDo you feel uncomfortable?ân/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
Luo Xiaoxi looked at Qin Weiâs hands and suddenly felt fear. She didnât want to be touched by other peopleâs hands. She had a hunch that she would be dragged into hell once she was touched.
âGo away!â She flexibly avoided Qin Wei and growled. âCall Candy over!â
Qin Wei went to find Candy. Luo Xiaoxi ran into the bathroom. Then she opened the faucet and poured cold water on her face, and then found that her cheeks had turned red in some point.
Actually, it was a kind of dubious blush.
Vaguely, she understood what had happened, and bit her wrist fiercely, trying to keep herself awake with pain, and then stumbled out.
She didnât know whether she stood firmly or not but she felt that the temperature of her body was soaring and the whole world in front of her was rotating. The glaring lights and the dynamic music were also spinning around her, which formed a subtle streamer and strange noise.
She felt that she was crumbling.
âHey, Xiaoxi.â Someone pushed her from behind, which made her stumble and rush to Qin Wei in her way. The person who pushed her whispered in her ear. âOur Master Qin can help you...â
Now, Luo Xiaoxi could be sure that her drink must be drugged.
The one who did it was probably the one who pushed her.
She pushed Qin Wei away and stood firmly, and then turned back slowly to see that one behind her. Then she raised her lips and kicked him away.
The strength of her body was gradually losing. Because she did not have much strength in her anymore, the man just staggered, which made it more look like that she was just messing with him.
Those who did know the truth began to laugh again. âHey, Jie, why did you provoke Xiaoxi? Be careful. Master Qin will be jealous.â
âRight.â Many others echoed. âXiaoxi will flirt only with Master Qin tonight.â
Luo Xiaoxi felt so wronged that she wanted to burst into dirty words.
Qin Wei knew well about Luo Xiaoxi. He also perceived that she was unusual, and then he walked over. âXiaoxi...â
âDonât touch me!â Luo Xiaoxiâs face looked cold. âWhere is Candy?â
Qin Wei replied helplessly, âShe is on the phone outside and will come in soon.â
As soon as his voice fell, Candy rushed in a hurry. âXiaoxi, what happened to you?â
Like seeing the savior, Luo Xiaoxi threw herself over Candy. âSend me back and donât let anyone follow us.â
Candy had been in the showbiz for so long that she had seen too much. Once she saw the special red color on Luo Xiaoxiâs face, she knew whatâs wrong with her. Without saying anything, she supported Luo Xiaoxi to go out.
At this point, no matter how stupid he was, Qin Wei realized what happened. He caught the young man who had been kicked by Luo Xiaoxi and asked, âWhat the fuck did you do?â
The young man shrugged his shoulders. âWe all know that you like Xiaoxi. But that girl is just obsessed with Su Yicheng. So we want to help you with a special method.â
âYou are crazy!â Qin Wei was furious. âXiaoxi will be furious, and she will do everything to send you into the prison even if sheâll hurt herself as well. Do you know that?â
âShe wonât.â The man smiled confidently. âI have considered previously. Now Xiaoxi is a public figure and just happened to win the weekly champion. She is the most talked-about person. So she certainly dares not to make this thing well-known. She will swallow the bitter pill in silence and you can pick a great bargain. What... Ah!â
Before he finished, Qin Wei kicked him fiercely. âYou donât know Xiaoxi at all.â
âFirst, Luo Xiaoxi is never a person who allowed herself to be bullied.
Second, she never fears that things will be known.
Third... sheâs smarter than they think.â
Qin Wei closed his eyes. They thought that they were creating opportunities for him and Luo Xiaoxi. In fact... This time Luo Xiaoxi would really no longer forgive him.
As it turned out, Qin Weiâs prediction was rightâ
Luo Xiaoxi totally knew what they were thinking.
The drug was gnawing her. Luo Xiaoxi huddled in the passengerâs seat. She felt as if she were pricked by numerous needles. She hugged herself and desperately suppressed the emptiness that would engulf her.
âXiaoxi, let me send you to the hospital,â Candy said.
âNo.â Luo Xiaoxi bitted her teeth and suffered the pain. âIf it was before when no one knew me, it would be OK. But now if I go to the hospital, the medical staff may disclose the news. What about my career?â
Candy had to say something else to distract Luo Xiaoxi. âWhat are you going to do tomorrow?â
âOf course, I am going to find them to revenge.â Every word said by Luo Xiaoxi was full of anger. âThose fucking jerks believe that I donât dare to kick up a fuss. Tomorrow I will turn them upside down!â
She was really uncomfortable, but she was embarrassed to call out, so she had to bite on her wrist.
It had been useful just now, but at present, this pain couldnât distract her attention anymore. Candy had no way but blamed herself and sped up. âIt is also my fault. After Qin Wei sent me a text message, I shouldnât have sent you over.â
âAfter I leaked Su Yichengâs plan to him, as long as I run into him, there wonât be a good thing.â Luo Xiaoxi controlled herself and resisted the feeling of exhaustion. âYou need to be more alert in the future. Donât push your artist into the fiery pit again.â
Candy said with a forced smile. âI thought Qin Wei just wanted to make you happy.â
Maybe it was true, but Qin Wei did not understand the current Luo Xiaoxi, who alienated those wine friends because she just did not want to live the previous life. But Qin Wei was trying to pull her back since he believed that she would be happy living that way.
In fact, however, Luo Xiaoxi had woken up long before, and she did not want to live without direction and regulation.
Half an hour later, the car stopped in front of the gate of Luo Xiaoxiâs apartment. Candy helped Luo Xiaoxi get out and said, âLet me send you upstairs.â
âItâs OK,â Luo Xiaoxi waved hands and said. âArenât you busy tonight? It is already downstairs and Iâm OK.â
Candy really had something to go back to handle, and Luo Xiaoxi seemed to control herself well. So she loosened her hands. âIf you really canât stand it, donât force yourself and call me.â
Luo Xiaoxi nodded and staggered into the apartment after tapping her card. She couldnât help biting herself again after entering the elevator.
When she hardly walked out of the elevator, she took out the key and opened the door quickly. After entering the door, she almost collapsed in the hallway.
Finally, with the power even Luo Xiaoxi didnât expect, she walked toward the living room by holding the wall. After a few steps, a tall figure suddenly appeared in the darkness.
She pressed her chest and gasped, and then almost fell to the ground with fear.
