Chapter 77 - Discharged (1/2)
Lang Lin woke up at 7 am. She felt like someone had locked her in a dream, and now she was finally out. Opening her eyes and sitting up, Lang Lin felt her head spin. She felt like she had a hangover. Looking around carefully to not aggravate her head, she realized she was in a hospital room with Wang Ming.
What had happened? She tried to remember what had happened yesterday, but everything's hazy. She could remember that they had drinks at the bar, but then after that she could barely remember what had happened.
Feeling panic, she checked her v.a.g.i.n.a to ensure nothing had happened. Touching it, she felt nothing out of place, no pain, no nothing. Trying harder to remember what had happened yesterday, she remembered some bits, like Wang Ming pushing Ren Meng. They hugging in the taxi and Wang Ming kissing her forehead, but nothing else.
”Lang Lin, are you ok?”
Wang Ming was still asleep when Lang Lin woke up, but her moving around on the bed made him wake up. Seeing her being awake and able to move made him relieved.
”Y..e.ss.”
She tried to answer Wang Ming, but barely could as her throat had dried up. Which made her cough while answering.
”Sit still, I'll get you some water.”
Grabbing a can of water, Wang Ming filled some water for her. Putting the can down, he pressed the button to notify for a doctor.
”Here take a sip just take it easy.”
After taking a sip of the water, Lang Lin realized how dehydrated she was, so she couldn't help but gulp the whole cup of water.
Seeing her drink like a child made Wang Ming laugh. Smiling at her, he offered her another cup. She finally felt satisfied after 4 cups of water.
”How do you feel?”
”I'm okay, I feel weak, like I have a hangover, what happened Wang Ming? Why am I here?”
”Everything's fine, don't worry. Feng Jiayi, Ren Meng and Yin Yan drugged you yesterday, with what the doctor believes is Rohypnol. The doctor said that it's a common drug that rapists use. It makes your head blank and you can even forget all the memories of the night, like what happens when you blackout from alcohol.”
”What! That can't be true! Are you sure Wang Ming? What did my friends do? Ehuang, Meifeng?”
Wang Ming didn't want to make a rift in Lang Lin's friendship with the girls. He wasn't sure if they knew what was going or not so he wouldn't sell them out.
”I'm 100% sure. You've drunk alcohol before, right? Think about it Lang Lin, you drank one drink yesterday and you're in this condition. It couldn't have been the alcohol the doctor affirmed, someone drugged you. As for your friends, they did nothing. I don't think He Meifeng and Wan Ehuang has anything to do with this, I just think that they were gaslighted by their boyfriends. You should talk with them and figure something out, but if they don't break up with their boyfriends and apologize to you, then you shouldn't be friends anymore.”
Hearing what Wang Ming said, Lang Lin didn't know what to do. She believed in Wang Ming. He saved her, but she had no recollection of last night, not of that, only of Wang Ming, and that pissed her off.
”I believe in you, Wang Ming, thank you for saving me. I don't think my friends are heartless monsters either, I've known them for many years now, we are best sisters from college. We used to go out to drink a lot, we shared sorrows and joys, they wouldn't sell me out just for their boyfriends.”
Lang Lin just sighed, there was nothing she could do now, she would have to wait until she felt better to confront them. Looking at Wang Ming, she noticed he had dark circles under his eyes. He probably stayed up late to take care of her. If this was any other person, she would have felt pure joy, seeing someone sacrifice their sleep to take care of her. But Wang Ming confused her feelings.
Reaching out with her hand, Lang Lin grabbed Wang Ming's back head and motioned him to get closer to her. She then gently stroked his hair and put his head on her l.a.p and said.
”Thank you again for saving me, Wang Ming. Not only that, but to all the sacrifices you do for me. Believe me, I see them and I truly appreciate it.”
Wang Ming didn't think that Lang Lin was so bold to kiss him on his mouth. He had never kissed a woman before, but he had seen movies before and even heard some drunken tales. So he did what he thought was right and pushed his tongue out into her mouth and engaged in a tongue battle with Lang Lin. Even though the kiss only lasted 10 seconds, it felt like hours for them, they just couldn't get enough.
