Chapter 1185: Must Bring Her Back

As she set down the cup, Xiao'an smacked her lips and muttered, "Strange, why does it taste a bit bitter?"

"How could the water be bitter? Are you perhaps suffering from internal heat lately?"

Internal heat?

She didn't feel like it.

But her eyelids... were a bit heavy.

Xiao'an yawned, then her head tilted, and she leaned to the side.

At this moment, Xu Xiaoxiao stopped feigning weakness, hurriedly caught Xiao'an, and let her lie on the bed to rest.

Liu Xin'ai looked at the sleeping Xiao'an and softly said, "Sorry."

The water Xiao'an had just drunk contained ingredients for a sleeping pill.

It was fast-acting, but the duration of sleep was also short.

Qin Yiyan had also taken a similar medicine yesterday.

However, the effects of the two were different.

The sleeping pill Qin Yiyan took had a strong aftereffect and lasted a long time.

In order to prevent him from waking up early, Liu Xin'ai had specifically put two pills in his orange juice.

Now...

All obstacles had finally been cleared away!

It was time for Liu Xin'ai to leave!

She turned her head to look at her good friend, filled with reluctance.

How could Xu Xiaoxiao not feel the same?

She took the initiative to hug Liu Xin'ai, her voice choked with emotion: "I've already called a car for you. This time, take care of yourself."

"Mm, you take care too."

After Liu Xin'ai finished speaking, she changed her clothes.

After disguising herself, she walked out of Xu Xiaoxiao's apartment.

Watching the slender figure gradually disappear from before her eyes, Xu Xiaoxiao felt a bitter ache in her heart.

She had wanted to see Liu Xin'ai off in person.

What a pity...

Looking at Xiao'an on the bed, Xu Xiaoxiao sighed.

To prevent this girl from waking up suddenly and ruining Liu Xin'ai's important task, she had to stay behind.

And besides...

There was still the mess of the Qin Family to deal with.

Although it was a bit troublesome, compared to her friend's freedom, Xu Xiaoxiao felt this was nothing!

On the other

side, in Qin Yiyan's bedroom—

Bai Yufei hadn't slept much that night either.

And she also knew that Liu Xin'ai had already left.

Now, she couldn't wait to go to Qin Yiyan's bedroom!

She gently crouched beside Qin Yiyan, raised her hand, and cautiously stroked his cheek.

At this very moment, she no longer controlled her love for Qin Yiyan.

Her eyes were full of longing!

It wouldn't be long before this man would belong entirely to her!

When that time came, no one would be able to separate the two of them!

Bai Yufei was very excited.

She leaned her body forward and brought her lips toward him.

But...

At the critical moment, Qin Yiyan suddenly opened his eyes!!

This startled Bai Yufei.

Her body immediately sprang backward, and she even fell to the floor!

Qin Yiyan had long wanted to wake up.

But it was as if his body had been controlled, and he couldn't wake up no matter what!

Just a moment ago, he suddenly opened his eyes and finally regained his consciousness.

Then...

"Fei'er?!"

Discovering Bai Yufei sitting on the floor with a terrified expression, Qin Yiyan furrowed his brows.

Bai Yufei was scared to death!

She never expected that Qin Yiyan would wake up so quickly!

Fortunately, she hadn't kissed Qin Yiyan.

Otherwise...

Thinking of such an awkward scene, Bai Yufei swallowed with difficulty.

Qin Yiyan felt that Bai Yufei was very strange, so he asked, "Why have you been sitting on the floor?"

"I, I..."

"Stand up first."

Qin Yiyan said, and was about to help Bai Yufei up.

But to his surprise, his body did not have an ounce of strength!

Even sitting up from the bed was a struggle!

This was too strange!

Bai Yufei, on the other hand, had calmed down.

She got up and sat by Qin Yiyan's side, saying in a soft tone,

"Brother, it seems you are sick."

"No, being sick isn't like this!"

"How is it not like it? You look just like you're sick. Rest well first, I'll go find a doctor."

Bai Yufei pressed on Qin Yiyan's shoulders, wanting to make him lie back down.

But Qin Yiyan said, "What doctor? Isn't Liu Xin'ai a doctor? Get her here!"

Liu Xin'ai?

Heh, that woman is probably at the airport by now!

Bai Yufei muttered to herself in her heart.

And Qin Yiyan discovered something.

He looked up at the clock on the wall, then his brows furrowed tightly: "It's only past seven o'clock, where is Liu Xin'ai?"

Bai Yufei's eyes darted, wanting to find a reason to steady Qin Yiyan first.

But Qin Yiyan had already begun to suspect!

He stared fixedly at Bai Yufei and asked in an interrogating tone, "Why did you come to my room so early? Speak, what do you know? Or... are you and Liu Xin'ai plotting something!?"

Qin Yiyan's final interrogation made Bai Yufei tremble all over!

She clenched her palms tightly, her smile forced: "Brother, what are you saying? What could I be plotting with sister-in-law? Sister-in-law... she probably got up early and went to the kitchen to make you breakfast."

"Then call her here!"

"Okay, wait a moment."

Bai Yufei agreed readily.

But in reality?

She planned to break the door lock as soon as she went out!

However...

"Wait!" Qin Yiyan called out to Bai Yufei.

Hearing this, Bai Yufei's footsteps stopped immediately.

She turned her head to the side and saw Qin Yiyan struggling to stand up, saying in a deep voice, "I'll go find her myself!"

This demand made Bai Yufei panic instantly!

She wanted to stop Qin Yiyan.

But before she could speak, Qin Yiyan, who had just stood up, was about to fall

down!

"Brother!"

Bai Yufei rushed over immediately and hugged Qin Yiyan's waist, helping him steady his body.

The close contact allowed Bai Yufei to feel Qin Yiyan's heartbeat.

His chest was also very broad; leaning against it, Bai Yufei couldn't help but let her imagination run wild!

But one sentence from Qin Yiyan shattered all the romantic atmosphere: "Help me out!"

"Brother, since you aren't feeling well, you can't..."

"Did you not hear what I said! If you won't listen, then move aside!"

Qin Yiyan suddenly roared!

That roar seemed to explode right above Bai Yufei's head!

It made Bai Yufei's shoulders shrink involuntarily.

However...

She did not help Qin Yiyan walk out, nor did she call anyone for help.

Instead, her breathing gradually became rapid.

Finally, she lost her reason!

She tilted her head back and roared unwillingly, "Can you stop caring about Liu Xin'ai? She doesn't want you anymore!!"

With that one sentence, Qin Yiyan immediately understood something!

He was trembling with rage and asked with a frown, "So, Liu Xin'ai ran away? And you knew about her plan but didn't stop it!?"

"I... I..."

Qin Yiyan pushed Bai Yufei away and scolded, "Wait until I return to settle accounts with you!"

He didn't want to waste time, and holding onto the wall, he prepared to walk out.

But under the control of the drugs, his movements were slow and his brain was chaotic.

In this condition, wanting to catch up to Liu Xin'ai?

Impossible!

But even knowing it was impossible, Qin Yiyan refused to give up!

Bai Yufei stood behind him, her eyes turning red.

Suddenly, Bai Yufei hugged Qin Yiyan from behind!

She leaned greedily against Qin Yiyan's back, closed her eyes, and pleaded, "Brother, just let her go!"

"Impossible, even if she runs to the ends of the earth,"

"I will still drag her back!"

"Why must you cling so tightly to a woman who has no heart for you? Liu Xin'ai, she isn't worth it! Can't you just look at..."
