“Su Zhan!” Qin Ya called out to him, but the car had already left. Only the noxious fumes from the car were left behind.
She took out her phone and called him.
Su Zhan was driving, and his phone was connected to his car via Bluetooth. When his phone rang, the screen of the car showed the caller ID, and he realized that Qin Ya was calling him.
He accepted the call, “Hello, wait for me in the office. I’ll be back soon.”
“Where are you going?” Qin Ya clenched her phone tightly, “Can’t you come back now?”
“I have something that I need to do…”
“What is it about? Is it about work or is it something personal?” Qin Ya asked anxiously.
She was scared that he was going to meet Liu Feifei.
Su Zhan pursed his lips and lied, “It’s about work.”
“Alright. I’ll wait for you in the office. I’m not leaving until you come back.” Qin Ya then hung up.
Su Zhan parked his car on the side of the street and called the number from just now.
In the bar, Liu Feifei sat at the counter, and her phone rang incessantly. Her gaze was a little blurry, and she took another sip of alcohol.
The bartender passed her another shot, “Are you picking that up?”
She smiled, “I won’t catch the fish if I picked it up.”
“Catch the fish?” He understood immediately, “Is it the man you asked me to call just now to say that you were drunk?”
Liu Feifei gave him a dirty look and placed three hundred in cash on the table, “Don’t blow my cover when he comes later.”
The bartender put the money in his pocket and smiled, “Don’t worry. You can come and find me the next time you need something from me. If the price is right, I won’t even mind spending the night with you.”
“Don’t be too greedy,” Liu Feifei gave him another dirty look.
Su Zhan received a call saying that Liu Feifei was drunk and unconscious in a bar. The person on the other side of the phone said that he called Su Zhan because he found Su Zhan’s contact on her phone.
There were people from all walks of life in the bar, so it was very dangerous if a woman had gotten drunk in the bar. That was why he rushed out of his office. However, Qin Ya did not seem to be in a good mood as well.
He wanted to pay the person who called him to send Liu Feifei home, but no one picked up the phone now.
He did not know what to do. On one hand, he was scared that something would happen to Liu Feifei in the bar, but on the other hand, he was worried about Qin Ya.
He was in a conundrum.
After a moment’s thought, he continued to drive towards the bar. It’s dangerous for Liu Feifei to be in the bar, and Qin Ya is safe in the office.
Besides that, I will come clean about Liu Feifei to Qin Ya when I get back.
He had actually known that Qin Ya was in a bad mood last night because of Liu Feifei’s appearance.
He was married now, and he wanted to maintain the marriage with Qin Ya.
He always felt a sense of warmth when he was with Qin Ya. She gave him the warmth of a family.
He arrived at the bar. He stepped out of his car and hurried towards it.
It was very dim inside, and not a lot of people were in there. The bar was not very crowded, and that was probably because of the timing. He found Liu Feifei very quickly, and she was slumped on the bar counter. He hurried towards her.
She was still holding onto a glass of alcohol, and she had seemed very drunk.
“Are you here to pick her up?” The bartender asked Su Zhan as he shook the cocktail shaker.
Su Zhan took a look at him, “Were you the one who’d called me?”
The bartender stopped for a while, before saying, “Yeah. I saw that this lady was drunk, so I took her phone she left on the counter and called the number that was displayed on it. She had been staring at this number since she started drinking, so I figured that this was someone she knew. So…”
“Thanks.” Su Zhan then called out to Liu Feifei, but there was no response. He then asked the bartender, “Did she pay?”
“No.” The bartender shook his head, “How can I ask her to pay up when she’s already this drunk? I can’t ask her to pay with her body right?”
Su Zhan took out his wallet, “How much is it?”
The bartender took a look at Liu Feifei and smiled, “Two hundred.”
Liu Feifei’s eyelashes twitched. She was cursing the greedy bartender inwardly because she had already paid for her drinks. She had even paid him to call Su Zhan, and now that guy was asking Su Zhan for money again.
It was unfortunate that she was already ‘drunk’, so she could not possibly chastise him. She was afraid that he would call her bluff out to Su Zhan, so she had to tolerate it.
Su Zhan placed two hundred in cash on the table. After he kept his wallet away, he carried Liu Feifei into his car.
He got in his car as he planned to send Liu Feifei back to her place.
They arrived at their destination in no time. He got off the car and carried her to her apartment lot. He then realized that the door could not be opened without the key, so he had to ask Liu Feifei, “Feifei, where’s the key?”
Liu Feifei moaned in his arms and murmured, “What keys? I want to drink, I want to drink…”
The strong scent of alcohol assaulted Su Zhan and made him frown, “How much did you drink for you to be like this?”
“I didn’t drink. I’m not drunk,” Liu Feifei acted like she was drunk as she grabbed Su Zhan’s wrists and thrust her face into his neck. She then started to murmur her ‘drunken’ words. For example, “Who are you?”
Su Zhan tensed up and distanced himself from her, “Where’re the keys to your home?”
“Home? I don’t have a home. The person I love is married now, and he doesn’t want me anymore.” She then cried piteously, “He didn’t wait for me and he got married…”
Su Zhan felt a plethora of emotions, not because of the woman herself, but because of the relationship that they used to have.
He had never thought that Liu Feifei would appear in his life once again after he had already moved on from her. Now, his heart did not flutter, and he did not feel his heart ache when he saw that she was crying in his arms.
He just felt that he could not possibly ignore her when she was distressed because they used to love each other.
“You’re drunk.” Su Zhan ruffled through her pockets and found the keys in the pocket of her down jacket. He then successfully opened the door.
He placed her on the couch and made some honey water for her in the kitchen. He passed it to her and say, “Drink some honey water to sober up.”
“I’m not drinking it!” Liu Feifei waved her hands and slapped the glass in Su Zhan’s hands away. The honey water splashed all over the floor. The glass shattered with a loud Crash on the floor as well.
Su Zhan’s pants were wet now. He frowned as he picked up the glass shards, throwing them into the dustbin. He then took a mop out from the bathroom and mopped the floor clean.
After washing his hands, he went back to the living room and looked at the woman who was lying on the couch, “You’re drunk. Just have a good night’s rest and you’ll feel better.”
After which, Su Zhan had wanted to leave.
Because Qin Ya was still waiting for him.
“Don’t go.” Suddenly, Liu Feifei stood up from the couch and hugged Su Zhan from behind, “I’m begging you, please don’t go. Please don’t leave me anymore. I’m so scared of being alone.”
Su Zhan pulled her arms apart. But Liu Feifei held on even tighter, “Su Zhan, I love you.”
“You’re drunk.” Emotions did not surge in Su Zhan’s heart when he heard the words ‘I love you’ because he knew that he did not love her anymore. That was the reason why he was so calm.
“I’m not drunk, I’m not drunk, I just miss you too much. Whenever I realize that you’re already married, my heart aches like crazy.”
