Outside the restaurant, Li Huizhen, overwhelmed by alcohol, crouched on the ground, vomiting as if turning the river upside-down.
Looking at her emaciated body, Lin Fan just stood there, smoking a cigarette in silence.
After all, even though she had just defended him, it didn’t mean that the wounds she had suffered could heal instantly. It was only when she suddenly collapsed onto the ground that Lin Fan quickly stepped forward and picked up her barely hundred-pound body.
Looking at Li Huizhen’s gaunt face, which had grown much paler than it had been two months earlier, with her formerly plump cheeks now sunken in, it was clear that she had not been living well.
At this moment, she lay unconscious in Lin Fan’s arms, entirely limp. He couldn’t just leave her there, so he had no choice but to place her in the backseat of the car, step on the gas, and the Range Rover roared away from the restaurant.
Through his earpiece, Lin Fan dialed Li Huifang’s number. Now that Li Huizhen was out cold, he really didn’t know what to do.
"Then bring her back, are you planning to abandon my sister on the streets?"
Li Huifang’s words made Lin Fan pause for a moment.
If he brought his drunk ex-girlfriend home, others would definitely think their old flame had reignited. But he had no other options at the moment and, bracing himself, he drove to the underground parking lot, then carried her into the elevator.
As the apartment door swung open, Li Huifang, still dressed as the Elf Queen, grabbed her sister’s hand with anxiety evident in her eyes upon seeing her unconscious.
"Don’t worry, she’s allergic to alcohol. I’ve checked her heartbeat just now, and there’s no problem; she’ll be fine after some sleep."
Lin Fan laid Li Huizhen on the couch. From the days they lived together, he knew everything about her.
"But she can’t just sleep on the couch... and... with this strong smell of alcohol... her clothes are dirty too... maybe I should take her to the bathroom and help her wash up."
Li Huifang, holding her sister’s hand nervously, clearly showed the deep bond between the siblings.
"Are you crazy? It’s just the two of us at home, and you can’t show up now. When she wakes up in the morning, she’ll definitely think it was me who washed her."
Lin Fan rolled his eyes; if he did what was suggested, things could get even more complicated.
"So what if you help her wash? Which part of my sister’s body haven’t you touched? Just pretend that I’m begging you, not as an ex-girlfriend, but as your girlfriend’s sister. In that case, you’re still getting a good deal... I beg you... If it’s a big deal, I’ll make it up to you tonight!"
Li Huifang clung to Lin Fan’s arm, rubbing it with her small, delicate hands.
It was hard to refuse a woman’s coquetry, especially the Elf Queen’s, which was fatally attractive.
With no other choice, Lin Fan lifted Li Huizhen up, and Li Huifang started to remove her clothes. Watching that familiar yet strange body appear before him again, Lin Fan took a deep breath, glanced at Li Huifang, and then carried Li Huizhen into the bathroom, slowly placing her into the bathtub.
"You wash her. Call me when you’re done!"
Lin Fan left the bathroom with a stern face, while Li Huifang turned on the shower and began to gently cleanse Li Huizhen’s body. Although the sisters would bathe together on ordinary days, they would not explore each other’s bodies, so as her fingertips brushed against Huizhen’s elegant curves, Li Huifang felt somewhat embarrassed and instinctively glanced at her own chest, surprised to find that her sister’s was considerably larger.
"Okay, that’s enough!"
After a good while, Li Huifang came out barefoot, and Lin Fan, holding a towel, covered Li Huizhen’s body with it before expressionlessly carrying her to the guest room. The unconscious Li Huizhen truly seemed lifeless, like a puppet, oblivious to everything.
"Sister is really okay?"
Looking at Li Huizhen lying on the bed with her eyes tightly shut, her condition didn’t seem like mere drunkenness but more like a coma.
"I’m afraid Lucki spiked her drink early, and the invitation to his father for an interview was just a smokescreen. She’ll be fine after sleeping it off."
Lin Fan had also realized the problem; it seemed tonight’s so-called class reunion and the supposed interview were still a trap, and Li Huizhen was merely a pawn in it.
"That guy is despicable... He even wanted my sister to be his secret lover before; that’s the smell of grapes beyond reach!"
Li Huifang clenched her fists in frustration; if Lin Fan hadn’t brought Huizhen back home tonight, her fate would have been self-evident.
Lin Fan sighed. In the past two months, his worldview had been shattered many times over, so he was no longer surprised by such events. It didn’t matter whether it was Li Huizhen or even himself; a few days ago, he had unwittingly become Zhu Defu’s pawn, taking out Wu Duowen, proving that life was like a chess game, and they were all pawns.
"So eager to leave? Are you worried about being tempted by my sister’s body?"
Li Huifang suddenly grinned mischievously, pulling on Lin Fan’s arm, "The bath is done, and now my sister has been drugged too, and since she knows nothing anyway, don’t you want to rekindle old flames?"
