Rebirth: A Cinderella's Counterattack
Chapter 1384 - 1364: Xi Meng
Because she was quite interested in Zhang Jingjing’s senior, Luo Qianqian accompanied her downstairs first, while He Wenyu stayed upstairs playing a finger-guessing game with Zhang Sheng and the others.
But then she saw a familiar face... one she didn’t want to see.
"Oh, Qhianqhian? You’re here too." Xi Meng was leaning against his car in the hotel parking lot, looking completely idle, clearly waiting for someone.
Across the entire parking lot, it seemed that only this spot had someone there. Zhang Jingjing said that the senior had already arrived, so it was apparent that the person in front of them was him.
"Xi Meng, long time no see." Luo Qianqian smiled faintly, but the smile didn’t reach her eyes.
Xi Meng’s gaze swept over Luo Qianqian’s body for a moment, with a hint of amusement: "After all these years, you’re still as young and energetic."
"That’s because I’m naturally young." Luo Qianqian looked at Xi Meng calmly, not intending to chat, and turned to Zhang Jingjing: "Be careful on your way, let me know when you arrive."
"Mm, okay." Even if Zhang Jingjing was slow, even if her brain didn’t react well due to drinking, she could tell that there was something off about these two.
They clearly knew each other, but she didn’t intend to delve into it; if they knew each other, it would be easier to get to know them better.
Watching the car drive out of the parking lot, Luo Qianqian’s expression turned immediately cold.
Xi Meng and Zhang Jingjing? Although Zhang Jingjing’s family was somewhat wealthy, it seemed like there was still quite a gap compared to the Xi Family, which had ties to the Wei Family. There was really no reason for them to be involved with Zhang Jingjing.
Not every family is like the Luo Family, indifferent to social status, and the Luo Family only became this way after learning from bitter experiences. Fortunately, their parents were satisfied with the marriages arranged by their parents.
Returning upstairs sullenly, she saw Ye Chen leaning against the elevator smoking and was stunned: "You’re leaving too?"
"No, I’m waiting for you." Ye Chen put out his cigarette when he saw Luo Qianqian coming up and looked at her, hesitating to speak.
Luo Qianqian immediately sensed something was wrong and frowned slightly: "What’s wrong?"
"We haven’t seen each other for so long, shouldn’t we play another round?" Ye Chen smiled, but his expression seemed a bit forced.
Luo Qianqian was taken aback, shook her head: "I’ve already arranged for someone to pick us up..."
While speaking, she released her spiritual power and her expression froze.
He Wenyu was with Zhang Sheng in the bathroom? And in the women’s bathroom, kissing? How was that possible? She knew He Wenyu’s drinking capacity; how could she get so drunk so easily?
But her face clearly showed the intoxicated, amorous confusion, and her eyes were utterly dazed.
Her expression became immediately cold: "You guys really are good brothers!"
She said this as she turned around and headed straight toward the bathroom, dialing her phone to call home.
"Hello?" An Hao’s soft voice came through the receiver; recently, he had been taking a great interest in phones.
"An Hao? Is Brother Yan there?" Hearing the familiar voice, Luo Qianqian felt slightly calmed.
"Hm? I’m here." Yan’s voice followed.
Luo Qianqian sighed in relief: "Someone’s affected by a bad drug, that kind... Aphrodisiac, how do you resolve it?"
"Qhianqhian, are you okay?!!!" Luo Xinyue’s voice instantly rang out.
Only then did Luo Qianqian realize the call was on speakerphone, but there was no time to be shy: "Not me!"
Yan, however, looked understandingly; if she were really affected by such a thing, how could her voice still carry urgency? That kind of thing would make a person cozy and seductive to the bone. Though Luo Qianqian had a lovely voice, it was entirely pure without a trace of seductiveness.
"Take a cold shower, or bring her back here; I have Ice Heart Pills." Yan said calmly.
Mo, at the side, was stunned, Ice Heart Pills? Ice Heart Pills are the Holy Medicine of the Fire Series, used to expel fire toxins, isn’t it overkill to use it to cure the effects of aphrodisiac? After all, the materials for Ice Heart Pills are extremely rare, and even the success rate of refining them isn’t high.
"Got it, thanks, I’ll hurry back." Luo Qianqian took a deep breath, hung up, her face showing a few traces of annoyance.
This is a class reunion, how could someone bring that sort of thing? And aim it at He Wenyu?
Rushing into the restroom, she saw Zhang Sheng’s large hand had already slipped under He Wenyu’s clothes, instantly glaring wide-eyed: "Let go of her!"
A strong killing intent surged towards Zhang Sheng, entirely ignoring any notion of loyalty.
She didn’t know when she was already clutching a dagger tightly, glaring at Zhang Sheng: "Get out!"
He Wenyu’s slightly dazed eyes cleared a bit upon sensing the killing intent and reached out towards Luo Qianqian, softly calling: "Qhianqhian..."
But in just a moment, her expression reverted to a thoroughly dazed one, her whole body unconsciously letting out moans.
"Qhianqhian, it’s not what you think!" Zhang Sheng was momentarily stunned when he saw Luo Qianqian arrive, then let out a breath, pulling at his clothes to awkwardly cover his evidently uncontrollable excitement.
"What do you think I saw? I’ve been gone for only twenty minutes!" Luo Qianqian’s expression was full of indifference: "I’ll take her away; the women’s bathroom isn’t where you should be!"
Saying this, she embraced He Wenyu’s limp body under the icy gaze, calmly looking at Zhang Sheng before resolutely picking up the unconsciously twisting person and leaving the restroom.
There was a bit of surprise on Zhang Sheng’s face, then a wry smile: "Fooled by a girl, I’m really becoming useless." Saying this, he walked out of the restroom, having no strange expressions for the lady passing by.
The lady was somewhat flushed and turned to head into the men’s restroom next door.
Perhaps because of the chill emanating from Luo Qianqian’s body, He Wenyu lay quietly, allowing her to breathe a sigh of relief.
Seeing a familiar car at the hotel entrance, she truly exhaled, opened the door, and shoved the red-clad, flushed-faced He Wenyu inside, then entered the car, sighing to the wide-eyed Elvis: "Quick, get us back; she’s been drugged."
Elvis’s face instantly darkened. If He Wenyu was drugged, did that mean Luo Qianqian also...
Inside the private room, those who heard Zhang Sheng say Luo Qianqian and He Wenyu had left were immediately listless, and when they went to settle the bill, they found Luo Qianqian had already paid, understanding what she meant by saying she was half a host.
Only a few people kept their heads down, showing no emotion.
Zhang Shen’s face was extremely dark, and Ye Chen looked at him, hesitating to speak, even when he wanted to, not knowing what to say.
