TVCEO Chapter 52.2

Perhaps it was the unpleasant meal that left her feeling exhausted, but as she was leaving, she suddenly felt a little dizzy. She told Yu Xiaoxiao to wait for her in the lobby while she went to the restroom to wash her face.

Their meal lasted for over three hours. By the time they finished, the restaurant was almost empty. Following the signs, she found the restroom and turned on the tap to wash her face when suddenly her legs gave way. She nearly fell into the sink.

Fortunately, someone caught her and supported her shoulder, preventing her from bleeding profusely on the spot.

Lin Qiao, leaning against the sink, turned around to thank the person, only to find that the person was Zhou Yuan.

“How are you? Are you alright?”

His expression was strange, as if he hoped Lin Qiao wasn’t feeling well.

Lin Qiao nodded politely and raised her hand to try to break free from him, but found that her feet felt as light as if she were walking on clouds, and she couldn’t even stand up straight.

Seeing that Lin Qiao was about to fall again, Zhou Yuan caught her once more, a half-smile on his face: “How did you get so drunk?”

For some reason, Lin Qiao’s vision began to blur as she looked at him, and even her senses became dulled. She didn’t even notice his hand touching her waist at some point.

Lin Qiao knew very well that she hadn’t been drinking. At first, she wondered if this sudden abnormality meant that something was wrong with her body, until Su Zhengxing’s urgent voice rang in her ears.

“Lin Qiao, don’t sleep! You might have been drugged!”

Drugged?

Her mind was hazy, and she had even lost the most basic information-processing ability. She could hear what was being said, but she couldn’t understand what it meant.

Seeing the drug taking effect, Zhou Yuan deliberately put his arm around her and said, “You feel like throwing up, don’t you? Come on, let me help you to the restroom.”

Although the restaurant is a public place, there are no surveillance cameras in the restrooms. Su Zhengxing immediately realized what the person outside was trying to do.

“Lin Qiao, wake up! Don’t let yourself fall asleep!” Su Zhengxing shouted loudly.

Trapped in darkness and nothingness, Su Zhengxing was frantic yet helpless. Since falling into Lin Qiao’s consciousness, he had never hated his lack of a physical body as much as he did now. He was right next to her, yet he couldn’t see anything and couldn’t do anything!

“Lin Qiao, can you hear me? Answer me!”

“Lin Qiao! Lin Qiao!”

Su Zhengxing’s repeated calls slightly brought Lin Qiao back to her senses. She covered her head and shook it, only to find Zhou Yuan half-supporting and half-dragging her into the bathroom when she opened her eyes.

Hearing Su Zhengxing’s words, she was shocked and quickly pushed him away with all her might.

Zhou Yuan hadn’t expected her to have so much strength after taking the drug. Caught off guard, he stumbled at the entrance to the women’s restroom.

He immediately cursed, “Damn it, you’ve taken so much, and you still dare to push me!”

At this point, Zhou Yuan’s patience with his prey had reached its limit. He simply stopped pretending and grabbed Lin Qiao’s hair, dragging her into the women’s restroom.

The push had already exhausted Lin Qiao’s strength, and now, with her hair being grabbed, she collapsed to the ground, completely drained.

Zhou Yuan was incredibly thin, almost like a bamboo pole. He was already weak, let alone able to drag an adult; even carrying a child was a struggle for him.

Seeing Lin Qiao fall to the ground, he simply let go of her hair and tried to grab her arm, but Lin Qiao clung tightly to the sink and refused to let go. He tried with all his might but couldn’t move her.

“Damn it, forcing me to take action!”

Zhou Yuan raised his foot to kick Lin Qiao, but at the critical moment, Yu Xiaoxiao swung her bag and hit Zhou Yuan directly in the face, making him see stars.

“Lin Qiao! Are you alright?!” Yu Xiaoxiao exclaimed in alarm.
