Chapter 91 - Feng Ru (38) (1/2)

Na Yu was driven home by that aloof guy a few minutes before 11 pm. She couldn't remember how the heck she got inside the house and into her room. But it was clear in her memories that there was an inerasable smile on her face all night long which taught her quite the unforgettable lesson.

'Never in my wildest dream did I see myself almost ending up with facial-paralysis for smiling too much. Fatal. Being too excited is fatal... Haha...'

...

It was on the next morning, around 6 am, two people in the city had to wake up massaging their aching cheeks - Tang Lan and Na Yu. However, while the latter did so for a weird reason and with eyes glowing from delight, the former did the same simply due to the searing pain. It was accompanied by a loud smacking sound that also almost deafened her.

”Gasps!” Tang Lan finally woke up. She was bound to a chair inside a dimly lit room and the exposed part of her body had several wounds, cuts, and bruises on them.

Apparent from her face swollen red, the slap which jostled her awake was actually not the first she received. Both her cheeks still had handprints belonging to various people. It would simply make one wonder when she got these and just how strong the slaps were in order to leave those marks.

'Damn, I'm hurting everywhere! What the hell happened to me? Why am I rope-bound in this chair?'

When she came to her senses and saw that there was only one person in the room, her barely opened eyes blinked a couple of times before bulging out of their sockets.

”S-sis Ying?” Great disbelief was in her tone. 'It's her who slapped me earlier? Why? Just to wake me up?'

Song Wuying, the pretty and tall female police officer in charge of guarding Tang Lan, was her acquaintance. Though she was also her rival in love and one of those giving her the most headaches among Gu Feng's truckloads of admirers.

However, between the two of them, only she was aware that they were rival. It was because while Song Wuying blatantly showed her fascination for the man, Tang Lan hid hers, making moves only whenever there were no prying eyes around. Through this way, she managed to maintain her friendship with the other woman, fishing out information from time and time which she also took advantage in order to get close to Gu Feng.

What had gone wrong this time?

”W-why am I here? And what happened to me? I, I was supposed to be with my boyfriend. His name is He Chen, and we're dining with my friends and his bandmates.”

Tang Lan disregarded the sneer on the female officer's face and described what she could remember. She told her the name of the restaurant and the approximate time she was there. If not for Song Wuying getting impatient, the female lead would have started describing the food they ordered, what kind of band Pesticide was, and her history with the main vocalist.

”Here! See for yourself what you did!” The phone was shoved in the female lead's miserable-looking face.

Tang Lan was forcefully made to watch the video playing there. The policewoman kindly reminded her of the stupidity she did in that famous restaurant, even summarizing, ”... Actually, everything I said boiled down to a single line. You simply courted death.”
