124 Where Am I (1/2)
”Chen Fan? Chen Fan? Wake up, you'll watch a cold sleeping outside!” Wu Ruoyu pushed Chen Fan's arm gently. It was already late autumn and the temperature outside was only over ten degrees celsius. Coupled with lying on the cold ground, it would be a miracle if one did not land up in a hospital sleeping on it.
”Um…” Chen Fan frowned and mumbled subconsciously before switching to a comfortable position and continued with his sweet dreams. Anyone who had been drunk before would know that they hated being disturbed when sleeping.
”This fella!” Wu Ruoyu stood up and stamped her foot. There was no way she could sit back and do nothing whether it be it because of the giant squid's beak or as a neighbor. She continued shaking Chen Fan's arm, but he remained as though he was dead — only breathing, not moving.
”Forget it.” Wu Ruoyu shook her head and pulled the key from Chen Fan's hand. She lifted Chen Fan's head with her left hand and moved his body to the side before standing up to open the white metal gate.
Creak! After pushing the white metal gate, Wu Ruoyu squatted down and placed Chen Fan's arms around her neck, wanting to use the strength of her waist to lift him up. It wouldn't be a problem for a strong man to lift two women up with both hands, but it would be more difficult for a small woman to lift a large man up.
Wu Ruoyu groaned as she used all her strength and finally lifted Chen Fan up. With one hand on his waist, Wu Ruoyu dragged him and took small steps toward the courtyard.
”Burp!” Although Chen Fan was subconsciously aware that someone was holding onto him, his aching head made him unable to control his footsteps, and he had to passively rely on the strength of others.
As she held onto Chen Fan and walked to the stairs in the living room, Wu Ruoyu pulled back her golden hair on her forehead, which was drenched in sweat. She took a deep breath before approaching the stairs as if she were climbing the Himalayas.
Even if their positions were to switch, the twenty-two steps could also make an able-bodied, strong man short of breath, let alone a small woman supporting an able-bodied man.
Seven...eight....nine… Wu Ruoyu counted silently with every step. Huff! At the eleventh step where she had to make a turn, Wu Ruoyu felt that her legs were as heavy as lead, and delicate beads of sweat had appeared all over on her skin. After resting for a while, Wu Ruoyu gritted her teeth and continued to drag Chen Fan up the stairs.
Twenty, twenty-one, twenty-two… When she held Chen Fan over the last step, Wu Ruoyu's legs jellied, and she crumpled to the floor. The pain from her calves to her waist made her frown. There was another ten meters left, and Wu Ruoyu's footsteps were no better than an elderly with one foot in the grave. She looked as if she might collapse any moment.
After moving to the side of the bed with much difficulty, Wu Ruoyu heaved a sigh of relief as if she just completed a 25,000-mile long march. Then, she put Chen Fan onto the bed with her arms.
Thump! Due to the action of the spring, the two-meter wide Simmons luxury mattress covered with a white silk duvet was pressed down and then shot back cheekily.
”Ah!” A clearly repressed voice came from Wu Ruoyu's delicate throat. Under the colorful lighting, Wu Ruoyu was weighed down by Chen Fan on the soft Simmons mattress.
Needless to say, Chen Fan did not do this on purpose. In fact, he didn't even know where he was right now. His burning head made him lose the ability to receive any communication from the outside world. Wu Ruoyu could only blame it on her own carelessness that such a situation happened. When she let go of Chen Fan, he fell onto the bed, and she was brought down by the impact of the falling force. Chen Fan fell onto her before she could pull her hands back.
Burp! Chen Fan burped a breath of strong alcohol right at Wu Ruoyu's round and smooth earlobe. Wu Ruoyu felt her heart almost pop out, and a flush spread quickly from under her eyes to her neck.
”Chen Fan, get up. Chen Fan, can you please get up? Chen Fan…” There was a trace of pleading in Wu Ruoyu's sweet voice. Wu Ruoyu felt that she had suffered extreme injustice. Who would have that thought she would end up like this for being helpful? She had already depleted all her strength just now. She tried to push Chen Fan away with all her might but Chen Fan just didn't move at all.
