Chapter 166
As Liang Yi spoke, he and his assistant Lin supported Li Chenxu on either side, trying to lead him out. However, Li Chenxu wasn't completely drunk and unconscious, and he resisted going back. How could Liang Yi and his assistant possibly do anything to him?
He had just helped the person up when Li Chenxu pushed him away.
"I won't go back."
His voice was calm and steady. If it weren't for his slightly swaying body and somewhat bewildered eyes, anyone would probably think that Li Chenxu was speaking calmly.
This side of Li Chenxu gave Liang Yi a real headache. The thing he regretted most today was coming to drink with Li Chenxu. As his best friend of so many years, Liang Yi knew Li Chenxu's personality all too well.
Don't be fooled by how determined Li Chenxu is now. Once he sobers up and finds out about Mu Xiaoyu's condition, if he still refuses to go back, he'll definitely regret it to the core.
Who will be to blame then? Won't he be the unlucky guy who takes the blame?
Liang Yi was usually a little afraid of Li Chenxu, but in order to prevent him from suffering tomorrow, he mustered up some courage and hurriedly said to his assistant Lin, "Ignore what he says, let's just send him back, otherwise we'll both be in trouble when he wakes up tomorrow."
Fortunately, Assistant Lin was a smart man and immediately understood Liang Yi's meaning. So the two grown men finally used all their strength to carry Li Chenxu out of the bar.
It was already late autumn in the capital, and the nights were much colder than the days. Li Chenxu had just been taken outside by Liang Yi and the others, and the cold wind that blew in his face immediately made him much more awake.
He wasn't really drunk to begin with, just a little sluggish, and now, with the cold wind blowing, most of his previous drunkenness immediately dissipated.
He glanced at Liang Yi and his assistant Lin, who were supporting him, and after a few seconds of silence, said, "That's enough, I'm sober now."
Upon hearing this, Liang Yi and his assistant Lin subconsciously looked at Li Chenxu's face. Seeing that he was clearly awake, the two then released him.
"Liang Yi, you go back first. I'll treat you to dinner another day."
Li Chenxu calmly said to Liang Yi, his words clearly expressing his gratitude to Liang Yi.
Upon hearing this, Liang Yi breathed a sigh of relief. He patted Li Chenxu's shoulder twice and advised, "Brother, think carefully about what's going on between you and Mu Xiaoyu. Don't do anything you'll regret... I'm leaving now."
After saying this, Liang Yi winked at Assistant Lin and left.
It's unclear what Li Chenxu's plans are now. After Liang Yi left, he didn't get into the car and instead leaned against the door railing next to the bar.
Assistant Lin didn't know what to say, so he could only stand silently to the side.
It was at this moment that Li Chenxu suddenly took out a cigarette, lit it, and started smoking.
He hadn't smoked in a long time. He took a deep drag on the cigarette between his slender fingers, and the wisps of white smoke he exhaled made his face look somewhat unreal.
"Do you think I should go back?"
Li Chenxu suddenly spoke, his voice hoarse from smoking and tinged with a hint of obscurity, instantly making Assistant Lin's heart leap into his throat.
He couldn't help but look at Li Chenxu, whose gaze was fixed on the distance, seemingly lost in thought, carrying a bewilderment he had never seen before—a feeling that only Mu Xiaoyu could evoke in him…
In less than a minute, Assistant Lin had already made up his mind.
He thought for a moment and finally nodded, saying, "Sir, you should go back."
As if he had expected Assistant Lin to give this answer, Li Chenxu chuckled softly. He took another deep drag of his cigarette, then stubbed it out and threw it in the trash can before saying, "Let's go."
So, it's time to go back.
Assistant Lin breathed a sigh of relief upon seeing this. He quickly agreed and then had the driver bring the car over.
Although Li Chenxu was much more sober than when he was in the bar, he still felt unwell after being drunk. After getting into the car, Li Chenxu rubbed his tired eyes and closed them to rest.
He knew that Mu Xiaoyu had come to his company to see him today. In fact, for a moment he wavered, wondering if he should just let it go and not pursue it any further.
It's truly remarkable that he and Mu Xiaoyu have come this far. They've been through so much together. In the past, he would never have believed that they could get along so harmoniously, and it even seemed that Mu Xiaoyu had developed feelings for him.
These are things he wouldn't have dared to dream of before, and he probably wouldn't have cared about what happened this time in the past.
Sure enough, people are all greedy creatures.
Having obtained what they wanted before, they wanted more. He was like that, and so was Mu Xiaoyu...
"Drive faster."
Li Chenxu suddenly spoke again. The driver, who was driving, was stunned for a moment when he heard Li Chenxu's low and hoarse voice. Fortunately, he had followed Li Chenxu for many years and quickly came back to his senses after a brief moment of stunned silence.
What was originally a half-hour drive was shortened by half at Li Chenxu's command. Even so, it was already past eleven o'clock when Li Chenxu got home.
At this time of day, the lights inside the villa would usually be off, but today, from the outside, the villa was still brightly lit. When Li Chenxu entered, he saw that none of the maids were resting; they were all standing anxiously beside the sofa. Everyone breathed a sigh of relief when they saw Li Chenxu return.
One of the bolder ones quickly ran to Li Chenxu's side and said in a low voice, "Sir, you're finally back! Please go and see Madam!"
Li Chenxu's expression was not good at this moment. Hearing this, he didn't say anything, but just walked quickly towards the sofa.
Mu Xiaoyu was only wearing a thin nightgown. Fortunately, the maid was considerate and draped a blanket over her to prevent her from catching a cold. Even so, Mu Xiaoyu's condition was still not good.
It's unclear if she's feeling unwell, but Mu Xiaoyu has already fallen asleep, though her brows are still tightly furrowed, one hand is clutching her stomach, there are still tear stains at the corners of her eyes, and her fair face is deathly pale.
Seeing Mu Xiaoyu like this, Li Chenxu felt as if he had been struck a heavy blow to the heart. His already unpleasant expression turned even more gloomy. He turned to the maid beside him and asked sternly, "Why did you call the family doctor to come and take a look at her!"
