Before she wanted to scream, Luo Xiaoxi took a closer look and found that the figure trapped in the darkness was somewhat familiar.
He stood against the light, and although his facial features could not be seen clearly, his tall and tall body was outlined by the dim light coming from the balcony. It was not clear whether he was wearing casual clothes or a tailor-made suit. He just stood there, It gives people the feeling of a top male model standing on the international stage.
Besides Su Yicheng, who else could be there
Luo Xiaoxi didn't dare to move, she clenched her hands into fists with all her strength, her nails dug deeply into her palms, and the pain became clearer each time.
She just had to use this pain to keep herself awake, otherwise, if she couldn't restrain herself, she might pounce on Su Yicheng like a hungry wolf.
Seeing Luo Xiaoxi standing there motionless, Su Yicheng frowned slightly and walked over.
In the silent darkness, the sound of his footsteps was particularly clear. Every step seemed to step on Luo Xiaoxi's heart. Luo Xiaoxi shouted "No" in her heart.
If Su Yicheng comes here, he will find out.
Luo Xiaoxi gritted her teeth and stepped back uncontrollably, preventing herself from making any suspicious noises.
Her behavior was tantamount to avoidance in Su Yicheng's eyes.
Su Yicheng's frown instantly deepened. He stepped forward and walked over, grabbed Luo Xiaoxi's hand, and pulled her into his arms the next second.
"ah… "
Luo Xiaoxi finally couldn't hold it back and exclaimed. There was no fear in her voice, but a suspicious gasp in the end.
Su Yicheng noticed something, and his aura suddenly sank. He held Luo Xiaoxi tightly: "Where did you and Qin Wei go?"
“… wine, bar.”
Luo Xiaoxi felt like there were ten thousand ants crawling on her body, eager to get into her body. She felt hot, not the kind of high fever, but like a fire burning inside her body.
She suppressed the hollow pain so hard that it was extremely difficult for her to even utter a word with simple syllables.
Su Yicheng knew what happened without asking, and reached out to turn on the light. Luo Xiaoxi held her back: "No, don't turn on the light, please..." Although she didn't know what she looked like now, she was sure. Very embarrassed.
She could let Su Yicheng see any side of her, but she never wanted him to see her embarrassment again.
Su Yicheng retracted his outstretched hand, and his eyes that had adapted to the darkness looked at Luo Xiaoxi through the dim light coming from the balcony. He could see her slightly opened red lips and the abnormal blush on her cheeks.
His heartbeat suddenly became rapid.
That drug seems to be contagious.
Su Yicheng looked away, thinking about how to deal with it without hurting Luo Xiaoxi.
At this moment, Luo Xiaoxi suddenly pressed her whole body against him.
Luo Xiaoxi had been patient and restrained since the drug-induced onset, but the moment Su Yicheng pulled her into his arms, she felt that she had found the antidote.
"Su Yicheng," she begged, "help me."
"Xiao Xi!" Su Yicheng urged her, "Please wake up!"
"Ugh..." Luo Xiaoxi whimpered in pain, "I feel so uncomfortable, Su Yicheng, help me..."
Looking at Luo Xiaoxi, for a moment, Su Yicheng almost couldn't control himself anymore, but luckily, there was still a trace of reason left in his brain.
He never bothered to take advantage of others' danger.
Thinking about it, Su Yicheng had already picked up Luo Xiaoxi and walked to the bathroom.
It was already chilly in City A in early autumn, and girls no longer had the courage to take a cold shower. Su Yicheng put Luo Xiaoxi into the bathtub and turned the faucet to the maximum, trying to use the cold to bring her back to her senses.
However, how can the burned-out sanity come back so easily
Luo Xiaoxi just felt that the fire was still burning her, but the cold water made her feel cold. She curled up in the bathtub and hugged herself tightly. She couldn't think about anything anymore. She only felt that the alternation of hot and cold was going to torture her crazy. .
Su Yicheng, who was standing beside the bathtub, felt uncomfortable.
If this method couldn't make Luo Xiaoxi feel better, then he wouldn't care if he was taking advantage of others.
The water in the bathtub quickly submerged Luo Xiaoxi, and Luo Xiaoxi, perhaps adapting to the cold, gradually stopped shivering, and just curled up in the bathtub, like a wounded animal.
I don't know how much time passed, but her head hung down. Su Yicheng called her several times but she didn't respond. Maybe she fainted.
Su Yicheng picked Luo Xiaoxi up from the bathtub, carried her back to the living room, put her on the sofa, and then quickly went back to the room to get clean pajamas and dry towels.
After changing Luo Xiaoxi's clothes and drying off the cold water on her body, the abnormal blush on her face had faded a lot, but Su Yicheng felt that he was facing the biggest test in his life.
Finally, he closed his eyes, carried Luo Xiaoxi back to the room, and tucked her into the bed. At this time, his cell phone rang. No matter what the message was, it was just enough to divert his attention.
Su Yicheng took his mobile phone and walked to the balcony of the living room, only to find that it was Xiao Chen who had sent an email.
Xiao Chen has already investigated Luo Xiaoxi's accident on the catwalk tonight.
Su Yicheng had long suspected that this was man-made, and it was most likely one of the other 19 participating models. The results of the investigation were as expected, but he did not expect that someone had instructed Li Yingyuan to do this.
The person who gave the instruction was Zhang Mei.
Su Yicheng immediately dialed Xiao Chen's number.
"It's so late and you haven't slept yet?" Xiao Chen was very surprised when he answered the phone. He hesitated and asked, "What should I do?"
If all the responsibility lies with Li Yingyuan, it would be very easy to handle. Xiao Chen doesn't even have to ask Su Yicheng. But when Zhang Mei was involved, he didn't dare to act rashly.
"Don't let Xiao Xi know about it yet." Su Yicheng rubbed his temples with a headache, "I will take care of it."
"...Okay. But...we have hidden the matter from Miss Luo last time. If she finds out this time..."
Xiao Chen didn't say any more, but Su Yicheng knew it.
These two incidents were extremely harmful to Luo Xiaoxi. Because Zhang Mei was involved, Su Yicheng had to handle it carefully.
But if such caution is interpreted by someone with a serious heart, it is very likely to be a cover-up.
According to Luo Xiaoxi's temper, if she knew everything, she would not just ignore Su Yicheng for a while.
If she was such a talkative person, she wouldn't still forgive Qin Wei.
"She actually suspects that her shoes have been tampered with." Su Yicheng warned Xiao Chen, "Don't let her find out. When the time comes, I will tell her everything."
Xiao Chen said "Yeah": "I know what to do."
Su Yicheng hung up the phone. A gust of early autumn night wind blew over, and the coolness invaded every pore on his body. He had forgotten the lingering feeling just now, only a slight frown remained on his brows.
When he went back to the room, he passed by the living room and saw the cigarette and lighter on the coffee table. In the end, he couldn't restrain himself and smoked a cigarette and blew the air for a while before returning to the room.
Luo Xiaoxi had fallen asleep. He touched her hand. It was no longer as cold as when she just got out of the bathtub, and the blush on her face also disappeared.
Su Yicheng lifted the quilt and lay down. As if she noticed something, Luo Xiaoxi lowered her lips in dissatisfaction in her sleep and shrank further away from him.
He raised the corners of his lips, but it was a forced smile.
If she knew what he was hiding, Luo Xiaoxi would subconsciously stay away from him even if she was awake.
It can be said that their roles are obviously opposite. He is the one who wishes to distance themselves, and Luo Xiaoxi is the one who clings to them shamelessly.
Since when did he want Luo Xiaoxi
He once thought it was recently, but the memories that came back told him that it was a long time ago.
When Su Jianan and Lu Boyan first got married, Luo Xiaoxi met Qin Wei, and they danced close to each other in the bar.
Luo Xiaoxi has the personality to make friends wherever she goes, and she always has a lot of male friends. He can chat with everyone, and he has never cared about it, because he knows that Luo Xiaoxi only treats them as friends. There's no chance of it with them.
Until that time when he saw her and Qin Wei, they became familiar with each other in just a few days. Luo Xiaoxi even pretended to have a room with Qin Wei to drive away Qin Wei's little girlfriend. He saw something in Qin Wei and Luo Xiaoxi. Something that can be called a "tacit understanding".
From that time on, he had a sense of crisis, but he couldn't realize that he had a sense of crisis because he cared about Luo Xiaoxi.
Fortunately, it's not too late for him to react now.
Just wanting to be with Luo Xiaoxi, he still needs to deal with many things. (To be continued)
