TMLFDN 66
He sat in the back seat of the car, leaning against the window, his right hand resting on the armrest, fingers lightly supporting his head. His left hand, however, couldn't help but pull down the tie around his neck, bunching it up in his hand. Even his breathing became increasingly hot.
"Sir..."
The driver in front saw Xie Li's condition through the rearview mirror. His neatly styled hair from the morning was now sweaty, strands sticking to his temples, and his collar had been loosened by himself. Although the car's air conditioning was on, the temperature inside was moderate, not hot enough to cause this.
Seeing the driver call out to him, Xie Li raised his head to look in the rearview mirror.
"What's wrong?" Xie Li, who had never experienced such a situation before, hadn't forgotten what he had been thinking before, nor did he notice that his initially emotionless eyes had softened, and his cheeks had flushed red, looking abnormal.
The driver turned the steering wheel and made a U-turn at the next intersection, preparing to head back home.
"Sir, you don't seem well right now. I suggest you go straight home. I'll call Dr. Wu and have him wait for you at home."
Xie Li originally wanted to decline, but when he realized that he indeed felt unusually hot, he silently agreed to the driver's suggestion.
"Okay."
Dr. Wu was the family doctor of the Xie family, and he had a medical team behind him responsible for the health of the Xie family of four. After receiving the call, Dr. Wu immediately set off from home. His home wasn't far from the Xie family's, ensuring he could respond promptly in emergencies.
After the driver communicated with Dr. Wu, he also called Jiang Yuying, the housekeeper, and Xie Li's assistant.
Because Xie Li heard the words "drugged" while the driver was on the phone, he clenched his left hand, angry.
Xie Li had lived for so long, and he thought such things only happened in novels... Although this was indeed a world of fiction, what was the use of not drugging the male lead, but his father? Xie Li felt a bit aggrieved.
As time passed, Xie Li's condition worsened, his head feeling heavy and hazy, with many scenes flashing before his eyes. He didn't even know what he was looking at or where the car was now or how far from home it was.
Physically, things weren't looking good either, with all the expected physiological reactions present.
When they arrived at the Xie family mansion, Xie Li didn't feel anything. His head felt heavy, and he couldn't even walk by himself. The housekeeper's eyebrows furrowed, and she called another servant. Two big men supported Xie Li out of the car.
Dr. Wu had already arrived and, seeing Xie Li's condition, understood. Jiang Yuying stood nearby, biting her lip, looking somewhat grim.
After helping Xie Li to the master bedroom on the second floor, Jiang Yuying watched as Dr. Wu conducted some basic checks on Xie Li. Then, she approached Xie Li to wipe away his sweat, sitting beside him with a towel in her hand, turning to ask Dr. Wu, "What should we do now?"
Dr. Wu replied, "Sir has indeed been drugged, temporarily unable to determine which type, as drugs in modern society are constantly evolving, but it's clear it's a powerful drug."
"The best way is to... help sir alleviate the effects of the drug. After he regains consciousness, I will take a blood sample for further analysis. We've already collected saliva and sweat samples, so we'll proceed with thorough detoxification and cleansing."
Jiang Yuying waved her hand, asking Dr. Wu and the maid to leave first. The maid was very understanding and closed the door, instructing the servants on the second floor to leave as well, without the master's orders.
Sighing, Jiang Yuying didn't know what to say to Xie Li. She knew that after they parted ways this afternoon, he must have met someone, or he wouldn't have encountered such a situation. Based on Xie Li's direct itinerary back to the company, he wouldn't have had the chance to be drugged. And the person who would drug him must be his lover.
Thinking of this, Jiang Yuying felt bitter. Clearly, she thought he had turned over a new leaf, only to find out he had met his lover behind her back and been drugged, and she still had to help him alleviate the effects of the drug, all because she was his wife.
"Husband..." Jiang Yuying's voice was somewhat mixed, but who would have thought that Xie Li, who was in a daze, responded with extreme grievance.
"Um... Ying Ying..."
From the usually expressionless man, Xie Li turned into a crybaby, wiping tears as he complained, "I just wanted to explain to her, why did I encounter such a thing... She should have drug Si Qi but instead drug me... Ying Ying, why did she do this.
Seeing Xie Li, who was usually domineering, speaking strangely, Jiang Yuying couldn't help but laugh.
"How can you say someone drugged our son..."
She laughed and looked at Xie Li, who was clearly uncomfortable, gently removing her own clothes.
Xie Li: !
