Open eyes, close eyes, and open eyes again. Yuan Meng finally confirmed one thing.
She wasn't hallucinating.
To be honest, her mood was extremely complicated in this situation.
After all, she and Ling Qianchen were no longer related. If she really wanted to avoid trouble, she should turn around and leave, pretending she didn't see him. But doing so would make her feel guilty...
For a moment, Yuan Meng was in a dilemma.
After an unknown amount of time, she impatiently ruffled her hair and made a decision.
Finally, she took a step forward.
At the bar, Ling Qianchen was gulping down alcohol while muttering something. This left the waiter beside him at a loss.
Although Hi-Night never closed, it didn't make sense to let a distinguished guest sit here and sleep for the whole night, did it?
He also wanted to ask his colleagues to come and help carry the distinguished guest to a room upstairs to rest. But this guest was extremely vigilant. As long as they got a bit closer, the guest would become like a hedgehog with all its spines up, hurting those who got near.
Thinking of this, the waiter couldn't help but let out a soft sigh. His headache got worse.
Just as he was wracking his brains, a cold female voice sounded behind him.
"What's wrong with him?"
The waiter turned around and saw a beautifully dressed woman with a complex expression, staring at the drunk and muttering guest.
The waiter's eyes lit up. "Are you this guest's girlfriend?"
Yuan Meng twitched the corner of her mouth.
"No."
"Then, what's your relationship with this guest?"
"An acquaintance... a friend?"
Now it was the waiter's turn to fall silent.
So, should he pin his hopes on this beautiful woman?
Seeing the waiter's dilemma, Yuan Meng parted her pink lips. At that moment, Ling Qianchen's drunken shouting started again.
"Ai, Ai Yue, where are you! Don't go..."
The waiter shook his head helplessly and murmured, "So pitiful."
"Pitiful?"
Yuan Meng really couldn't see where Ling Qianchen was pitiful apart from being drunk. Unexpectedly, the waiter's voice rose two notches.
"Isn't he pitiful? He's clearly been hurt by a heartless woman!"
Heartless·Yuan Meng·Woman: "..."
Feeling that her reputation had been ruined, Yuan Meng, who regretted her momentary soft - heartedness, was about to leave.
However, just as she half - turned her body, a hand patted her on the shoulder. She jumped in fright. When she looked back, she inwardly cursed herself for coming here.
The person who patted her shoulder was Luo Yishan, whom she had just parted from not long ago. And behind Luo Yishan was Chai Yanyu, with a strange and excited look on his face.
"Yueyue, you're so naughty. You secretly came to the bar without telling your friends." Luo Yishan pretended to sigh sadly.
Yuan Meng, who was already used to this girl's over - acting, just pursed her lips and said nothing.
Seeing that she wanted to slip away and avoid being caught, Luo Yishan smiled even more cheerfully.
The two, one chasing for answers and the other dodging, didn't notice Chai Yanyu's small move. By the time the dodger realized it, it was too late.
It turned out that while they were fooling around, Chai Yanyu quietly walked to Ling Qianchen's side, gently patted his cheek, and at the same time leaned down and whispered in his ear.
"Cousin, Ai Yue is here."
Almost as soon as his voice fell, the originally somewhat drunk man was like a nimble cheetah, pouncing straight on the woman in front who had turned around with a serious face.
"Ai Yue, don't go!"
Yuan Meng glared angrily at Chai Yanyu, the instigator, and tried to break free from Ling Qianchen's strong grip.
The moment Ling Qianchen pounced, the waiter was startled. Just as he was about to step forward to help, he heard this conversation that left him stunned.
"Let go."
"No, I don't want to let go. Please don't leave me again, okay!"
"We've never been together. Your words don't make sense!"
"Make sense. How could they not make sense? Yueyue, I love you. Please just look back at me, okay? Just one glance..."
Yuan Meng was furious and once again doubted her life.
If she hadn't come to Hi - Night, she wouldn't have been entangled by the drunk Ling Qianchen. If she hadn't been entangled, she wouldn't have to have a headache...
Thinking about it, it was really a bitter story!
Luo Yishan, who was also worried, had already wiped the smile off her face the moment Ling Qianchen pounced.
This scumbag Ling, how dare he take advantage of her Yueyue!
The more she looked, the angrier she got. Just as she was about to rush forward to pull Ling Qianchen away, her arm was grabbed tightly.
"Old Chai, don't stop me!"
Chai Yanyu, who had finally managed to bring this about, would never allow it to be ruined. He endured the pain of being scratched and grabbed and pulled Luo Yishan away.
With the only savior being pulled away and a sticky "candy" clinging to her, Yuan Meng's face darkened.
In order not to attract more attention, in the end, Yuan Meng coaxed Ling Qianchen gently and with the waiter's help, finally managed to get him to the elevator.
She opened the door. Just as the waiter was about to help her carry the man in, Yuan Meng raised her hand to stop him.
"Thank you. You can go back to work."
The waiter opened his mouth. His eyes fell on Ling Qianchen, who was unconsciously rubbing against Yuan Meng. He understood.
"Okay. I wish you a pleasant stay."
Yuan Meng twitched the corner of her mouth again, but she didn't dwell on this meaningless topic. She nodded and helped Ling Qianchen into the room.
After entering the room, with a series of smooth movements of pulling, tugging, and throwing, she "placed" Ling Qianchen on the large sofa that could fit one and a half people.
She thought that by doing this, she had fulfilled their former marital bond. After that, even if he was left to fend for himself, it had nothing to do with her.
But often, there was a big difference between imagination and reality.
Just as she was about to take a step to leave, a pair of iron arms wrapped around her waist. Not only that, with a "wow", a stinky smell instantly filled the air around her calves.
"Ling, Qian, Chen!"
Yuan Meng gritted her teeth and pushed Ling Qianchen away, who still didn't want to let go of her, and stared at him fiercely.
This guy must have done it on purpose!
After vomiting all over Yuan Meng and being pushed like this, Ling Qianchen fell onto the sofa and let out a soft groan.
Yuan Meng's face turned even uglier. Unable to hold back, she slapped him on the arm.
She couldn't leave with this stinky smell all over her. Helplessly, she could only use the bathroom and bathrobe in the room to wash off the filth on her body.
But no matter how many times she washed, Yuan Meng still felt that there was a stinky smell on her body. She soaked in the bathtub for nearly half an hour before she was willing to step out.
When she came out, Ling Qianchen was already fast asleep.
She didn't want to care at first, but since she had no other clothes to change into, she angrily sat down on another sofa.
"I must have owed you in my previous life."
She murmured dissatisfiedly. As if sensing something, Ling Qianchen started to mumble again.
His mumbling was nothing more than "Yueyue, don't leave me" and "Yueyue, just look at me, okay".
It was so annoying. When Yuan Meng was about to look for something to cover his mouth, she heard him say -
"Yuan Meng, I'm sorry. I still hurt you..."
This soft murmur made Yuan Meng stand still on the spot. It was a long time before she moved again.
"Humph, at least you have a conscience."
Early the next morning, Ling Qianchen, who was woken up by his biological clock, rubbed his aching head and slowly sat up.
When he saw a strange environment in front of him, his heart skipped a beat.
Where... was he!?
Just as his face changed slightly, Yuan Meng, who had changed her clothes, walked out of the bathroom with a slightly complex expression.
"Good that you're awake."
Hearing the familiar voice, Ling Qianchen turned around in surprise. At the same time, he was wondering if all this was just a dream?
"Hey, what are you in a daze for?"
Feeling uncomfortable under his stare, Yuan Meng shifted her gaze and put on her shoes and socks.
"Remember to check out of the room."
"Yueyue! You still care about me, right?"
Unable to stand his affectionate gaze, Yuan Meng shook her head without thinking.
"It's not just for you. I just don't want to be on the headlines. That's all."
After saying that, regardless of Ling Qianchen's expression, this time Yuan Meng left without looking back.
It was a long time before Ling Qianchen came back to his senses after Yuan Meng left.
Were they really impossible?
