It can’t be true, right?
How could she have done that with her weak limbs against someone as strong as Lu Lixing?
After she excluded everyone that could’ve left the teeth mark, Ji Qingqing’s heart pounded against her chest forebodingly. She was frowning as she massaged her temples with both of her hands. She didn’t have any strength in her body, and she was in pain from the aftermath of overdrinking, but she continued to stare at him tentatively. She apologized and said, “I’m sorry, I overdrank, so I don’t remember…anything I said or did.”
“You can’t remember?”
Ji Qingqing smiled, “I don’t really remember.”
How could she remember anything when she blacked out after she became drunk?
Lu Lixing pointed at the corner of his mouth, “Do you know where this injury came from?”
Ji Qingqing didn’t have the courage to look into his eyes, “Could I…be the one…”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt“Yes, you were the one who injured me.”
“…”
She wanted to cry.
“Do you want to bite me to make up for the injury I caused?”
“Bite you back?” Lu Lixing approached her, “You bit me, so I will bite you back to get even?”
The corners of Ji Qingqing’s mouth twitched as she lowered her head silently.
Lu Lixing was not petty enough to punish her for what she did when she was drunk. “Forget it. Just remember that you’re not allowed to drink that much anymore!”
Ji Qingqing nodded her head and looked at him, “I won’t drink anymore!”
When she finally looked up to meet his gaze, his face suddenly overlapped with one of the memories in her mind. A voice from her memory echoed in her ear.
——Wu Yanzu, why are you in my bed?
The memory was fuzzy and distorted, but it was enough for her to make out the people in the memory.
She seemed to have…pressed Lu Lixing under her body.
Ji Qingqing felt her heart suddenly stop beating for half a second.
She was able to vaguely recall that she had accidentally called Lu Lixing by the wrong name and had even pushed him under her!
The name ‘Wu Yanzu’ echoed like a 3D stereo that was on repeat in her mind.
Besides uttering Wu Yanzu’s name, what else did she tell him when she was drunk?
Ji Qingqing racked her brains, but she couldn’t recall anything else besides the scene where she pushed Lu Lixing below her. She couldn’t remember anything that happened before or after this scene.
Would Lu Lixing think of her as a fickle woman for calling another man’s name when she was on his bed?
She took a deep breath and her heart turned cold. It seemed like her life was over.
Ji Qingqing fiddled with her fingers and said, “Well…I can explain one thing from last night. I called you Wu Yanzu…”
Lu Lixing raised an eyebrow, and his tone was cold and indifferent when he said, “You don’t need to explain anything. I’m not interested in knowing your private matters.”
Ji Qingqing breathed a sigh of relief.
It was great that he didn’t care. Because if he did, then she really didn’t know how to explain it to him.
——“Death Warning: Please ask your wife, Ji Qingqing, to tell you Wu Yanzu’s identity. If you give up or fail the mission, then five life points will be deducted.”
Lu Lixing frowned. He was hesitating whether he was willing to give up five life points.
Ji Qingqing turned to leave.
“Stop.” Lu Lixing grabbed the back of her collar and his tone sounded slightly threatening when he asked, “Who is Wu Yanzu?”
Ji Qingqing’s heart thumped against her chest. Why did Lu Lixing suddenly go back on his words?
How will she make up a story about Wu Yanzu?
“Are you trying to stall for time so you can make up an elaborate story to trick me?”
“Of course not!” Ji Qingqing frowned as she massaged her temples. She sounded very weak and lifeless when she explained, “I just…my head hurts. My stomach also hurts…this can’t go on. I have to head back to bed and lie down…”
