She nodded, turned and walked away quickly.
The further she walked, the more upset she became, and tears began to fall.
She also felt that she was being completely baffled.
"Sister, what's wrong?" A little boy suddenly ran over and looked up at her with pleading eyes.
These eyes look like Lin Zhibai's eyes when he was a child.
Once, when they went on a picnic with their parents, he accidentally fell down and reached out his hand to her in the same way, pleading for her help.
She had never forgotten many things between them.
"I'm fine." She smiled slightly, holding back her tears. "Little friend, can you do me a favor?"
The little boy nodded vigorously.
She pointed to Lin Zhibai, who was not far away, and said, "Could you go and keep an eye on that older brother for me and make sure he doesn't run off with someone else?"
"Does he owe you a card, sister?" The little boy thought Lin Zhibai had lost a card game with Gu Fanyan.
She smiled and nodded: "If you can do what your sister asks you to do, your sister will reward you with a whole set of cards."
The little boy ran towards Lin Zhibai.
Gu Fanyan's worries were not unfounded. When she pushed her wheelchair back, she could hear the little boy's fierce scolding from a distance.
The person who came was Sheng Xin, who wanted to take the opportunity to take Lin Zhibai away, but the little boy was shouting and yelling, and she was afraid that things would get complicated, so she had to leave first.
Gu Fanyan realized that the real show tonight was probably just beginning.
She pushed Lin Zhibai into the room in a wheelchair.
Lin Zhibai lay on the bed, sweating profusely, his cheeks burning red.
But he still retained a sliver of reason and said, "You go first, don't worry about me."
At this point, Gu Fanyan really couldn't just leave.
She asked the waiter to bring over a few ice packs and handed them to Lin Zhibai, saying, "Holding them might make you feel a little better."
Lin Zhibai did feel a chill, but when he looked down at the ice pack, he couldn't help but smile bitterly.
Making him hold an ice pack at this point was purely an attempt to cripple him.
"You go first, don't worry about me," he said again, the subtext being that he shouldn't give any unsolicited advice.
Gu Fanyan ignored him and made several phone calls to her assistant.
I finally found out some useful information.
The popular drugs these days contain some chemicals.
The medicine is strong and makes people feel very uncomfortable, but seeing a doctor for the right medicine can relieve the symptoms.
But you have to act fast, otherwise if there's no medicine and no outlet for your emotions, you'll really be ruined.
Gu Fanyan quickly tried to call Lin Guangchen, but she couldn't get through.
She picked up Lin Zhibai's phone and tried to call again, only to find that neither of their phones had a signal.
“That’s how it is sometimes at the villa,” Lin Zhibai said, forcing himself to remain calm. “You should leave now, I can’t guarantee what I might do later…”
"Can you hold on a little longer? I'll go find Lin Guangchen," Gu Fanyan asked. "He should have a solution."
Lin Zhibai frowned, disliking hearing the name Lin Guangchen. "Don't look for him."
He would rather perish on the spot and become useless than let Lin Guangchen see him like this.
Gu Fanyan raised her eyebrows: "What kind of time is this to still care about saving face? You don't want to see Lin Guangchen, but you really want me to find you a woman?"
“Okay, find a few more,” Lin Zhibai replied.
Gu Fanyan was speechless. "I wish I could, but we're at the villa now. By the time a woman who's willing to come arrives, you'll probably be crippled."
Lin Zhibai curled the corners of his lips: "Why don't you do it, Sister Fanyan?"
"I can slap you a few times to bring you to your senses," Gu Fanyan cursed.
Lin Zhibai paused for a moment, then said, "That's fine too."
What he didn't say was that he didn't want anything to happen between him and her under these circumstances.
That would make him seem tasteless.
Gu Fanyan had no temper with him anymore.
She wanted to go out to find Lin Guangchen, but when she tried to open the door, she found that it wouldn't budge.
No matter how she turned the doorknob, it was no use.
She went back to the table and picked up the internal phone, which was ringing.
However, no matter what number she dialed, the receiver kept ringing.
"We've been locked in a room." Gu Fanyan bit her lip.
Lin Zhibai was stunned for a moment, then suddenly smiled: "Sister Fanyan, you are now my only antidote."
Gu Fanyan was starting to have some doubts about him: "Lin Zhibai, you arranged all of this, didn't you?"
"Ha!" Lin Zhibai was also speechless. "I just said it casually, and you actually believed it. If I wanted you, would I need to use such methods?"
Gu Fanyan: ...
He reached out his hand to her: "Help me to the bathroom."
She stood still.
"Don't regret it if you don't do as I say."
His warning was not unfounded; in some places, the fabric was clearly on the verge of collapse.
Helpless, Gu Fanyan helped him into the wheelchair and then pushed him and the wheelchair into the bathroom.
Soon, the sound of water came from the bathroom.
Moreover, there was no fog on the glass bathroom door.
He did indeed use cold water.
He actually behaved quite like a gentleman at times like this.
Gu Fanyan looked around the room; all the windows were closed. Some windows were open, but they were fitted with sturdy security bars.
Since the other party dared to lock them in the room, they must have considered all aspects carefully.
But what is their purpose?
Even if something happened between her and Lin Zhibai under the influence of the drugs, what would be the consequences?
After thinking it over, Gu Fanyan concluded that apart from Lin's mother's hatred and some rumors, there wouldn't be any consequences.
The only person who probably wanted Lin's mother to hate her was Sheng Xin.
At this moment, Sheng Xin was in the room next door, facing Lin Leming's questioning.
"Are you out of your mind?!" Lin Leming pointed at her nose and yelled, "You locked Gu Fanyan and Lin Zhibai up together because you're afraid they'll get married too late, right?"
Sheng Xin remained calm and countered, "Do you think your plan will succeed tonight?"
Lin Leming was furious: "Even if we can't succeed, we can't let Lin Zhibai get away with it!"
“Since your plan won’t work, then we’ll do it my way,” Sheng Xin said calmly.
"What plan of yours?" Lin Leming asked, puzzled.
“You don’t need to worry about that,” Sheng Xin said with a faint smile. “You just need to know that if I don’t help you, you will face retaliation from both Gu Fanyan and Lin Zhibai. Think about whether you can handle it.”
Lin Leming felt a chill run down his spine, and the way he looked at Sheng Xin changed.
This woman is not simple.
"What do you want to do?" he asked.
"I told you you don't need to worry about it, just stay put." With that, Sheng Xin turned and left.
Hearing her footsteps, Lin Leming walked to the side and stopped outside Lin Zhibai's room.
Suddenly, the doorbell rang.
Gu Fanyan was taken aback, not expecting anyone to come at a time like this!
According to the usual plot, shouldn't she be completely helpless at this point?
She took off her shoes, quietly went behind the door, and opened the peephole to look outside.
The more unusual something seems, the more vigilant we must be.
It is Shengxin.
"Brother Zhibai, Brother Zhibai, are you in your room?" Sheng Xin called out.
