Thinking about his friendship with Gu Chenfei, Ji Ling found it quite miraculous. What he admired most about himself was that for so many years, he had never fired Gu Chenfei. Given this guy's long list of misdeeds, he should have been fired long ago.
After careful consideration, Ji Ling thought that perhaps it was because he and Gu Chenfei were quite similar, and also because Gu Chenfei paid him well.
"Come and take a look."
Seeing Gu Sisi covering her head and unable to speak, Gu Chenfei roared at Ji Ling. Frightened, Ji Ling quickly came over to feel Gu Sisi's pulse, check her pupils, and other parts of her body.
"There's nothing wrong. She's already better. This shouldn't be the case," Ji Ling looked at Gu Sisi and asked curiously.
"Miss? Miss? Can you hear me? Can you tell me where you're feeling uncomfortable?" Ji Ling was a bit anxious. This kind of situation was rare. Either he had misdiagnosed, but Ji Ling didn't believe that was possible, or the hallucinogenic drug Gu Sisi had taken was stronger than he thought.
"Yes, my head hurts," Gu Sisi nodded and said with difficulty.
Seeing Gu Sisi in this state, Gu Chenfei frowned even deeper. She really looked pitiful.
When Gu Chenfei frowned, Ji Ling felt as if the Grim Reaper was beckoning to him. He quickly took out his tools and conducted a thorough examination of Gu Sisi.
After the examination, Ji Ling still found it very strange. All the indicators were in line with his expectations. Gu Sisi shouldn't have a headache unless...
Ji Ling seemed to be deep in thought.
"How is it?" Gu Chenfei asked worriedly.
"Oh, it's okay. She'll be fine in a while. Don't worry!" Ji Ling returned to normal in a second and said jokingly.
Gu Sisi looked at the charming strange man in front of her and the strange Gu Chenfei and thought it was a bit strange. What was going on? Wasn't she drinking with Gu Chenfei?
Why was there another man? And her head hurt so much.
"Chenfei, what's wrong with me? And who is this gentleman?"
Gu Sisi covered her head and asked curiously.
"Hello, hello. I'm Ji Ling, Gu Chenfei's private... Ah!" Ji Ling looked at Gu Chenfei aggrievedly. This guy was trying to murder him, kicking him so hard.
Under Gu Chenfei's threatening look, Ji Ling laughed awkwardly. "I'm Gu Chenfei's friend. Hahaha, yes, a friend."
Only then did Gu Chenfei lift her foot off Ji Ling's. Ji Ling felt that his foot was about to be useless. How could there be such a woman? Ji Ling silently cursed Gu Chenfei in his heart.
"Oh, hello. I'm Gu Sisi. I'm also Chenfei's friend. Nice to meet you," Gu Sisi felt a bit strange but still greeted him.
"Sisi, you just met him when we were drinking. He came to find me at that time," Gu Chenfei started talking nonsense with a straight face.
"Really... Really?!" Gu Sisi was very surprised. Why didn't she have any impression at all? But looking at Gu Chenfei's expression, it didn't seem like she was lying. Gu Sisi instinctively felt that Gu Chenfei wouldn't lie to her.
"Yes, Sisi. You just don't remember. Look at this wine. You drank too much, so you have a headache. Actually, you two just got to know each other," Gu Chenfei continued to make up lies, holding up the empty wine bottle that Ji Ling had just finished and saying that it was Gu Sisi who had drunk it all.
Ji Ling silently pinched his hand. He really suspected that he was blind. Was this still Gu Chenfei? Talking nonsense with a straight face. Although Ji Ling wasn't seeing this for the first time, it was the first time he had seen Gu Chenfei be so gentle and patient while making up lies.
"If you don't believe me, you can ask Mr. Ji," seeing that Gu Sisi still looked confused, Gu Chenfei tugged at Ji Ling's corner.
"Yes, yes, Miss Sisi, don't you remember? You even asked me what my occupation was. I said I was a doctor. Do you still remember?" After successfully being Gu Chenfei's accomplice, Ji Ling actually breathed a sigh of relief.
This Gu Chenfei had just been tugging at his corner. Ji Ling was afraid that if he didn't follow Gu Chenfei's words, this hand might be pinching his flesh.
Fortunately, he had escaped this disaster. Ji Ling felt that tonight was really full of dangers. Being with this Gu Chenfei, it was easy to get into trouble. One wrong move and his life would be in danger. Even if he managed to survive, he would be frozen to death by her.
"I see," Gu Sisi listened to what Gu Chenfei and the charming Ji Ling said and stared at the wine bottle, lost in thought.
Was she really too happy? Then accidentally drank a lot of wine and had a blackout? Gu Sisi still thought it was very strange.
She had just felt a headache and her whole body was uncomfortable. It really felt like she was drunk, so Gu Sisi didn't suspect anything.
"Ah, I'm sorry. How could I get drunk? Really. I'm making a new friend laugh. I'm sorry, Mr. Ji," seeing Gu Sisi apologizing seriously, Ji Ling inexplicably felt guilty. Really, such an innocent girl, and Gu Chenfei still lied to her like this.
Thinking about it, Ji Ling cast a protesting look at Gu Chenfei. However, Gu Chenfei's cold glare made Ji Ling understand what "protest is invalid" meant.
"Alas, how can Xiaotao bear you?" Ji Ling whispered.
"What... What did you say? What's wrong with Xiaotao?" Maybe because they were close, Gu Sisi heard Ji Ling's complaint.
"Haha, it's nothing. I just said that it's a pity Xiaotao is sleeping. It would be great if she came over to drink with us," in order to cover up his nervousness, Ji Ling took another sip of wine. This time, the wine bottle was really empty.
"Ah!" Ji Ling's scream attracted Gu Sisi's attention.
"Mr. Ji, what's wrong?" Gu Sisi tilted her head and asked curiously.
Ji Ling looked at Gu Chenfei and secretly moved his foot that was being stepped on by Gu Chenfei. He gritted his teeth and replied,
"Nothing, nothing, Miss Gu. I just think this wine is so delicious. I've never drunk such good wine before. It's really good, really good. Hahaha."
Ji Ling felt that his foot was about to be useless. He silently wiped away a tear of bitterness in his heart. This was really... How was he going to climb over the wall to get out later!
"Mr. Ji likes it. Then take a bottle with you when you leave. It can be regarded as a greeting gift."
"Really? That would be great!" Ji Ling immediately became excited. Although this wine wasn't that great, it was the wine from the Huo family. That was quite rare.
Given the chance to get something for free, how could Ji Ling let it go?
Gu Chenfei glared at Ji Ling. Ji Ling immediately lowered his head and changed his words:
"This is not okay. I really can't accept it, Miss Gu. I really can't."
"It's okay, Mr. Ji. It's also to express my apology. I got drunk like this on the first time I met you, and I bothered you to check me. Did I scare you?"
