That voice, that tone, who else could it be if not his little fool?
Shi Lingyan’s heart felt like it was being wrenched by the terrified, collapsing scream as he quickly followed the sound.
The thick door was pushed open.
Shi Lingyan saw at a glance the mess strewn all over the place.
Glass shards covered the floor, and a pricey guitar was smashed out of shape.
Cries of helplessness and vulnerability intermittently drifted from a corner.
Shi Lingyan followed the sound and saw a small, pink figure curled up in the corner, shivering.
"Shi Mei?" Shi Lingyan quickly approached, and his anger flared upon seeing her disheveled state.
Shi Mei was convulsing, her usually neat and tidy hair now a mess, as if someone had mauled it.
She was holding her legs, crying with her face flushed red.
Hearing Shi Lingyan’s voice, she lifted her guarded gaze, and upon seeing him, burst into louder sobbing, her arms wide open as she yelled, "Hubby!"
Shi Lingyan caught her securely.
What he had not expected at all was that Shi Mei felt like a little furnace, her entire body burning hot!
Shi Lingyan was startled.
Before he had a chance to ask, he noticed that Shi Mei seemed terrified, desperately shrinking into him.
She clung to him tightly, like a koala gripping his upper body.
The little one wasn’t heavy, and there wasn’t much to her body.
Shi Lingyan thus held her with ease in his arms.
But the fever she was radiating seemed as if it would burn right through him.
Shi Lingyan, who had never encountered such a high temperature, touched her forehead immediately, "Why are you burning up so badly?"
"Hubby, hubby, woo woo woo," Shi Mei cried loudly, "It hurts, Shi Mei is in so much pain, waaah, woo, the bad... the bad man, was going to... take off Shi Mei’s clothes, woo..."
Only then did Shi Lingyan notice a man lying on the ground, his entire body flushed red yet his face deathly pale.
Xiong Kaishuo was so panicked tears were coming out as he yelled, "I’m innocent, dammit, I didn’t do anything, this woman is just faking it! I..."
Shi Mei’s crying intensified, she clung tightly to Shi Lingyan, vigorously rubbing herself against him, frantically shouting, "Hubby, Shi Mei feels awful, Shi Mei needs to pee!"
As she spoke, Shi Mei tightened her legs around his waist.
Her arms held him tightly, sobbing as she tried to kiss him.
Shi Lingyan pushed away her face, his pupils dilating slightly.
Suddenly, it was as if he understood everything.
His complexion turned an iron blue.
Shi Mei’s gaze grew more and more hazy as she rubbed against him, gasping and distressed, crying, "Hubby, Shi Mei feels so bad, woo woo woo, Shi Mei needs to pee!"
Xiong Kaishuo, already in too much pain to stand, keenly sensed an intimidating aura emanating from Shi Lingyan and was even more miserable as he blurted out, "This bitch is just pretending, she’s not dumb at all! I... ah..."
The pain subsided for Xiong Kaishuo as the drug took effect, and he sighed mid-sentence.
But in an instant, he clamped his mouth shut, his face pallid as he stammered out an explanation.
Shi Lingyan suddenly gave a cold, mocking chuckle, "You shouldn’t be telling me that."
Then, he had already dialed the phone, "Yun Du, come up."
Xiong Kaishuo turned ashen, waves of heat swept over his body, and his consciousness grew ever more scattered.
It was over, everything was over.
