She gently touched Lin Huowang's arm, gesturing for him to look over.
"Shuzhen?" Lin Huowang called out.
Qian Shuzhen raised her head somewhat slowly, her eyes unfocused, and mumbled, "Hmm?...Good...good idea..."
After saying that, he tilted his head to the side and slumped onto the dining table, seemingly drunk and unconscious.
Liu Rumeng and Kobayashi Keiko exchanged a glance, both seeing a hint of understanding in each other's eyes.
Lu Ruirong, with her keen intellect, had roughly guessed what was going on, and remained silent, pursing her lips.
"Sigh, why did you drink so much?"
Liu Rumeng sighed helplessly and looked at Lin Huowang, "Awang, what do you think... should we send Shuzhen to the guest room to rest, or... send her to the master bedroom..."
She didn't finish her sentence, but the question in her eyes was obvious.
Lin Huowang looked at Qian Shuzhen, who was slumped over the table, and understood.
He stood up, his tone calm: "Mengmeng, you know what I mean. I, Lin Huowang, would never take advantage of someone in distress. Is the guest room ready? I'll carry her over to rest."
Looking at Qian Shuzhen, who was drunk and passed out in front of him, Lin Huowang felt quite helpless.
Isn't this girl from Northeast China usually very outgoing and carefree?
Thinking back to the first time she came to Linjiagou to interview me, the scenery when she got out of the jeep, and her beautiful face smiling in the snow, is indeed very memorable and touching.
He truly didn't expect that Qian Shuzhen would actually chase him all the way from Northeast China to Hong Kong Island.
He also felt a little sorry and guilty. She had come all this way, only to have her see such a "disgraceful" side of him, surrounded by women on Hong Kong Island. When Lin Huowang put himself in Qian Shuzhen's shoes, he felt sorry for her and found it hard to accept.
For a fleeting moment, Lin Huowang inwardly berated himself: why did he ever appear in Qian Shuzhen's life? He had wasted the life of such a wonderful girl... Sigh...
He slowly walked to Qian Shuzhen's side and gently lifted her up from the chair.
Qian Shuzhen's body was limp and soft, carrying the warmth and fragrance of alcohol.
Liu Rumeng, Kobayashi Keiko, and Lü Ruirong watched silently, their faces showing knowing, faint smiles, but no one said a word.
Lin Huowang carried Qian Shuzhen through the spacious living room and upstairs to the quiet guest room.
He gently placed her on the soft bed, pulled the thin blanket over her, and prepared to cover her with it.
Just as he bent down to tuck in the blanket, preparing to straighten up and leave...
A hand, burning hot, suddenly grabbed his wrist! The force was immense, carrying a desperate, all-or-nothing resolve.
Lin Huowang paused for a moment.
Qian Shuzhen, who had been "drunk" on the bed, opened her eyes at this moment.
Those eyes, usually bright and sharp, were now misty with tears, filled with intense grievance, resentment, and a hint of desperate anger, piercing straight at Lin Huowang.
"Lin Huowang!"
Her voice was hoarse with drunkenness, yet it carried an unusual emotion, "You...you just left like that? Why...why didn't you carry me to the master bedroom? Am I...am I really that unworthy of your attention?"
All pretense was torn away at this moment.
Her question was a voice that had been suppressed for too long, a last-ditch effort to save face for herself, and also an invitation to him that came with a gamble.
Lin Huowang looked down at the complex emotions surging in her eyes—admiration, the torment of waiting, the resentment of being ignored, and the courage to go all out. He offered no explanation, remained silent.
Any explanation at this point seems pale and powerless.
He leaned down, his other hand caressing her burning cheek, and then sealed away all her complaints and questions with an irresistible, passionate kiss.
"Hmm..."
Qian Shuzhen's defenses completely crumbled under that kiss.
Long-suppressed emotions, like a flood bursting its banks, instantly overwhelmed all reason and restraint.
She let out a soft moan and suddenly wrapped her arms around Lin Huowang's neck, responding passionately as if she wanted to melt into his body.
All the grievances, waiting, and longing have been transformed into this moment of unreserved demands and dedication.
Lin Huowang sensed her volcanic emotions and deepened the kiss.
The two embraced tightly and fell onto the soft bed.
The thin blanket slipped off, clothes gradually fell away, and the temperature in the room rose sharply.
Heavy breathing and suppressed groans intertwined, composing the most primal symphony of the night.
Two long-suppressed souls finally merged completely at this moment, becoming one with one another.
