"Huocheng." Gu Sisi threw herself at Huocheng, hugging him tightly. Her small face was flushed, and her little hands kept poking at his body restlessly.
Huocheng put his arms around Gu Sisi. Before he could react, he saw her mouth twist and her head lower as she vomited all over him.
After vomiting, Gu Sisi looked extremely aggrieved and pitifully stared at him. "I feel sick."
Huocheng carried her into the room and laid her on the bed. "I'll call a doctor for you." Before he could turn around, she grabbed his tie and pulled him onto the bed.
Huocheng said in a soft, low voice, "Let go first."
"No." Gu Sisi murmured. "You always bully me."
Huocheng reached out his long arm, grabbed some tissues, and carefully wiped the stains off Gu Sisi's body. "I won't bully you anymore in the future, okay?"
"Okay." Gu Sisi mumbled, and it was hard to tell if she really listened.
Her petite body nestled into Huocheng's arms. Huocheng called a doctor and asked him to come quickly to help her sober up. Being drunk could be a serious matter, and she would surely have a headache tomorrow.
Just as he finished the call, there was another knock on the door.
Again? Huocheng's face darkened.
"Stop making noise!" Gu Sisi covered her ears painfully.
"It's okay. It'll be over soon." Huocheng stroked Gu Sisi's hair and went to open the door.
As soon as the door opened a crack, a group of people rushed in.
"Police officers. Raiding for prostitution!" An officer pointed a gun at Huocheng.
"What's going on?" Huocheng stood still and asked coldly. Beneath his calm voice was boundless anger.
The leading officer was stunned when he heard the voice. He stared wide - eyed and, sure enough, it was Huocheng whom he had met not long ago.
Why did they keep bumping into each other like this?
"Hehe." The leading officer gave an awkward laugh and desperately made gestures behind his back, signaling his colleagues to put down their weapons.
He stepped forward and said seriously with an unnatural look on his face, "Mr. Huo, I think there must be some misunderstanding."
Looking past Huocheng, the officer's face turned as black as a thundercloud. That familiar face... It was Huocheng's little girlfriend!
"Mr. Huo, sorry to bother you." The officer quickly stepped back and closed the door.
More than ten minutes later, Chen Fang rushed over with some people.
"Master, do we really have to do this?"
"Since we've started, we must get an explanation!" A cold smile curved Huocheng's lips, and the air around him seemed to drop several degrees.
It was all the Zhao family's own doing.
Chen Fang shivered as if he had goosebumps and timidly put forward his opinion, "I don't think the Zhao family is that stupid. This won't do them any good."
The lower his voice got, the more something seemed off to him.
Chen Fang frowned. Did the Zhao family have the guts to set a trap to get Huocheng arrested? It was like an egg hitting a rock. It was completely useless!
A thoughtful look flashed across Huocheng's eyes, but it was gone in an instant, and his mind became clear again. "Do as I say."
"Yes." Chen Fang straightened his face, nodded obediently, and silently mourned for the Zhao family for a second in his heart.
Gu Sisi was lying unconscious on the bed. The doctor examined her. After confirming that there was no problem, he left some hangover medicine and left.
Thankfully, there was no major issue.
Huocheng's fingers gently stroked Gu Sisi's face. Her once lively face now looked so peaceful in sleep, making her seem much more gentle.
"So smelly!"
Gu Sisi seemed to be either asleep or half - drunk. Suddenly, she mumbled something.
Huocheng came back to his senses and only then noticed that the stains from her vomiting hadn't been cleaned up yet, and some had even got on her clothes.
He let out a soft laugh. This woman was really good at causing trouble.
Downstairs in the hall, Father Zhao was dispersing the guests at the banquet. Zhao Wanru was confused. "Dad, what are you doing?"
They had said it was going to be an engagement party. If the guests left midway, where would she, the would - be bride, put her face?
