Chapter 179 I Remembered
With trembling fingers, he picked up the mineral water bottle on the coffee table, unscrewed the cap, and poured all the water on the girl's face.
However, when a bottle of water was poured down, the girl on the ground did not move and did not react at all.
The male waiter swallowed his saliva, looked up at Zhang Hao who was sitting on the sofa, and said in a frightened voice: "Mr. Zhang, she won't be dead..."
Zhang Hao ate the grapes that the woman in his arms had peeled, and said with a somewhat unhappy expression: "What a fuss! How could she die from just drinking some wine? Why don't you check her breath to see if she's still breathing?"
The male waiter slowly squatted down and put his hand to her nose, but found that she was not breathing at all.
When he reacted, his pupils suddenly contracted, and he sat down on the ground in fear, "No, no breathing... dead, dead..."
Zhang Hao frowned, spat out the grape seeds in his mouth, stood up from the sofa, and kicked him away, "Get out of here, you piece of shit."
He squatted down, reached out his hand to feel her breath, then looked at her chest which was flat on her face. He stood up from the ground cursing, "Damn it, bad luck, she's really dead."
The woman who was accompanying the guests on the sofa came over, her expression rather grim. "Mr. Zhang, what should we do?"
Zhang Hao raised his eyebrows, his eyes fell on the male waiter, and he waved his hand, saying nonchalantly, "What does it have to do with me? I wasn't the one who gave her the alcohol, so if she dies, it's his fault."
The waiter shook his head, his eyes and eyebrows showing unconcealed fear and panic, "No, I didn't kill her... Mr. Zhang, I only gave her alcohol because of your instructions..."
Zhang Hao kicked him on the shoulder again. "What? You still want to call the police to arrest me? I said you killed him, so you did."
He turned to look at the woman beside him and continued, "What are you still standing there for? Go call your manager over and tell him that this male waiter has killed someone."
The male waiter reached out and grabbed the woman's ankle, crying, "Sister Ling, it wasn't me. You saw it too. I didn't kill anyone..."
Sister Ling closed her eyes and opened them again. Although she felt bad, she didn't want to get into trouble either. She pulled her legs free and said to Zhang Hao, "Young Master Zhang, please wait a moment. I'll go get our manager."
Zhang Hao glanced at her leaving figure, retracted his gaze, walked to the sofa and sat down again.
He just reached out to pick up the wine glass on the table when he saw the girl on the ground suddenly coughing.
The male waiter was slightly stunned when he saw this, then his eyes suddenly lit up with excitement, "No, he's not dead!"
Zhang Hao couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. He said how could someone die after drinking two bottles of wine.
At this point, he lost interest in continuing to play. "If you're not dead, get out of here. It's annoying just watching you."
The male waiter felt relieved, responded, and quickly reached out to help the girl up from the ground and took her out of the box.
......
In the lounge.
"Xiaozhi, are you okay? How about I take you to the hospital?"
Li Zhi recovered and looked around, his eyes filled with vigilance. He said in a hoarse voice, "Where is this?"
"This is the lounge. I see your face is red, which is unusual. Are you really allergic to alcohol?" the male waiter said with a worried look on his face. "I was so scared just now. I really thought you were dead..."
Li Zhi was about to say something when she felt a sharp pain and many memories that did not belong to her suddenly emerged in her mind.
"Twig?"
Li Zhi frowned, trying to suppress the discomfort of a headache, "I'm fine, you can go out first."
The male waiter nodded slowly, "Okay, I'll be out now. You should have a good rest first."
After the door of the lounge closed, Li Zhi closed her eyes, leaned back in her chair, and began to digest those unfamiliar memories.
After a while, she opened her eyelids, looked at the ceiling above her head, and finally realized that she had traveled through time.
She failed in her ascension and tribulation, her body was destroyed, and her soul actually traveled to this body that had just died not long ago.
Moreover, her soul was severely damaged and could not be completely integrated with this body, resulting in unstable spiritual power.
Li Zhi pressed her brows with a headache. In this situation, she could only let her soul enter a dormant state to repair herself.
Entering a dormant state is like meditating in seclusion, but this body is just that of an ordinary person. If you don't eat or drink, you will definitely die.
After thinking for a moment, Li Zhi decided to leave one soul out.
Although this will cause her recovery to be slow, it will allow this body to maintain its proper self-awareness and behavior, just like a normal person.
In order to avoid causing unnecessary trouble, she also deliberately made this soul completely imitate the original body's personality and way of speaking to act like a controlled puppet.
In this way, others will not notice that there is actually a different person in this body.
After everything was ready, Li Zhi closed his eyes again and let his main soul enter a dormant state.
When she opened her eyes again, she had returned to her original timid appearance.
At this moment, the door to the lounge opened, and Sister Ling's concerned voice came in, "Xiaozhi, are you okay?"
Li Zhi raised her eyes to look at her and nodded blankly, "Sister Ling, I'm fine."
Sister Ling walked up to her and stopped, raised her hand and patted her shoulder, sighing softly, "You bumped into Master Zhang tonight. Even though he let you go, there's no guarantee he'll do something to you next time he sees you."
"If you see him again in the future, just avoid him and don't let him see you. And if you want to deliver wine or something, just let someone else do it."
Li Zhi bit her lip and hummed softly, "I understand, Sister Ling."
"Okay, I just told the manager, you should go back and rest tonight." Sister Ling said.
"Okay." Li Zhi responded.
———
I don’t know how long it took.
Tu Shanyue looked at Li Zhi who slowly opened her eyes and asked impatiently, "How is it? Did you remember anything?"
Li Zhi sat up straight with a complicated expression. By looking back on the past, she finally understood what had happened.
She rubbed her swollen temples and said, "Now I remember, I did come here five years ago."
"Then how could you have forgotten it?" Tu Shanyue asked curiously.
Li Zhi immediately told him in a concise manner what she had done to this body five years ago.
"More than two months ago, this body was in a car accident, causing my main soul to wake up prematurely, which also caused some errors in the process of automatically merging with that soul."
"It made me forget what happened when I first came here five years ago, causing my memory to still be stuck on the time when I failed to overcome the tribulation."
Tu Shanyue nodded. "So that's how it is. I was wondering, we were clearly struck together, how could we have arrived at different times?"
