Chapter 933 - Not A Damsel In Distress Who Would Wait For Her Knight.
Li Xue's face was getting a hue of redness slowly and slowly as time was passing and the drug was working on her. Before there was just a bit of discomfort but now she could already feel her body getting hotter from inside, burning her in the fire of destructive temptation that could ruin the whole of her. She knew that the effect of an aphrodisiac is acting up. Though it was slow, the start has already begun.
At this moment, her thoughts were drifting to find Feng Shufen for relief. Hoping that some way or the other, he comes to her rescue at this point.
But his appearance, at a moment like this … Won't it be too superficial? After all, heroes come to save beauty at the right time but that happens only in novels and dramas. In reality, the beauty has to think of her own capabilities, instead of waiting for her knight to appear.
And she would exactly try to do what's appropriate for her in this situation.
Her eyes went to look on her side and her lips couldn't conceal the curl that came at the sight of the girl's difficulty. Though she was feeling quite comfortable being dragged through the corridor, MaoMao was looking quite tired carrying her like that.
"Have I gotten too heavy for you to carry? You can take a rest if you want, I won't mind." She said, aiming her words to get on the girl's nerves.
And she was successful. Because just as Li Xue said that, MaoMao's steps paused as she sharply turned to glare at her. "Li Xue, I truly want to admire your guts. You are already in this situation, yet you are not giving up your arrogance and tricks. Don't think I don't know what you are trying to do here with me?"
Li Xue weakly shrugged her shoulders in innocence. "What am I trying to do? It has been you all who have done things on me. I have not blamed you guys but look here, you are accusing me for something that even I don't know." She said, and feeling all frustrated at her, MaoMao's hold on her tightened.
If Li Xue had not been in the weakening drug effect, she might have already felt the sharp pain in her arms. But now that she is under effect, that strong clutch on her arms only felt like a pinch of tease that made her break into a flutter of laughter.
"Haha, MaoMao … did you forget, there was also an aphrodisiac mixed in the drug. If you pinch me like that, I won't be able to hold my moan. And if someone finds me moaning here with you, it would be tough for you to explain."
MaoMao's hold at once loosened on her arm and seeing her instant reaction like that Li Xue couldn't help but chuckle more. "
Li Xue, you! Behave yourself … Can't you be a little easy on your weight. Why are you purposely dumping all your weight on me? We need to reach there fast but because of your stubbornness, it's just getting tough on me. Can't you see I am already getting out of breath?" She said and at her words, Li Xue's expression changed.
The tinge of playfulness and ease that she was holding on her expressions disappeared as her eyes turned pointed to reply, "Who said that I will let you have an easy path for getting me to my destruction? Haven't you thought of me as too easy going? If you really have to destroy me, work for it. And later I will think if I am impressed with your tries or not?"
MaoMao flinched at her sudden change of demeanor. Biting on her lower lip, she looked at her grudgingly to say, "Li Xue you are too much. Do you still think there is a way for you to escape? We are already near and soon I will send you inside the room. You won't be able to save yourself once you are inside there. Mr. Hu is already all full from alcohol and his hands would not leave you even for once. You won't get a choice to think if you are impressed or not. So, don't think of yourself as high and mighty."
She said and Li Xue just smiled. Even weak, not for once that weakness was obvious on her facial features. "We will see that later!"
MaoMao gritted her teeth seeing the smug written on Li Xue's face. She wanted to wipe it off but knew well that none of her words hold the power to do so. So, instead of wasting her efforts, she started to drag her again.
Li Xue was really tough so when carrying her all the way to the room, MaoMao was already out of breath. She was even feeling tired and like there was no strength left in her body. "Ah, see we are finally here. Now no one will be able to save you, Li Xue. Let me see if later you would still be able to hold the same smug expression or not." She said, before inclining her on the wall for some time so that she could open the door to push her inside.
Pulling out the spare room card that earlier Liu Hua had given her, she opened the door and turned to give a look of success to Li Xue, but at the moment as well, Li Xue smiled. And her smile held a confident winning success that almost confused MaoMao.
Before she could understand or ask anything about it, Li Xue got her actions swift as if she was just waiting for this right moment to come.
In one swift go, she pushed the girl inside with her curbed strength from all this time and then staggering on her feet a little close, she pulled the door close with all her might. "I don't need anyone to save me. Though I am weak at the moment, I am still not a damsel in distress to wait for someone to appear." She said as her lips tugged on the corner with a smirk.
Holding on to the door, she waited and soon she heard the yell of the girl. Mr. Hu definitely must have taken the right fill of alcohol, so he would not mind who is inside with him as in such condition he would not require to see the face of the woman.
Li Xue laughed for one last time as she turned to walk away. It was tough for her to hold at the moment, but at the moment, she couldn't take the risk of staying stagnant at a place and waiting for someone to appear. She needs to make a move by herself and reach a safe zone before the aphrodisiac gets high on her.
Using every bit of strength and by the support of the walls, she made her way away from the room, slowly and steadily, trying her best to not come into the eyes of anyone.
But little did she know that there was already someone who had seen her in such a state.. From a distance, there were two pairs of eyes that were looking at her movements with great interest and entertainment.
