Chapter 1750: I Drank Too Much, and Will Be Staying with a Friend

Shen Zhilie: [Yeah . That’s what I thought too . ]

Ye Qianqian got changed and put on her shoes, preparing to head out .

When Luo Ran saw her reply, he suddenly realized that it wouldn’t be appropriate .

After a moment’s thought, he sent her another message . [Why don’t you let me find out a little more for you . Don’t panic, sister-in-law . This guy is wily . He’ll have no problem escaping trouble . Don’t worry . ]

Ye Qianqian wasn’t exactly reassured when she read the message . She recalled Shen Zhilie’s words a few days ago regarding the female patient who was on the verge of going crazy .

What if that woman had really gone crazy?

A murderer who was mentally unstable did not have to bear any legal responsibility .

The more Ye Qianqian thought about it, the more terrified she became . She picked up her handbag and opened the front door .

Fang Tongtong noticed her and asked, “Where are you going?”

“I’m going to look for Shen Zhilie . ”

“Seriously? What are you so worried about? He’s a grown man! So what if he’s a little late? What happens if you find him, and he turns out to be fine? He might accuse you of being too clingy! Well, that will be awkward . ” Fang Tongtong stood up . “Perhaps he’s having a get-together with his friends or something . If they were to find out, he’ll become a laughingstock! How will he show his face in public then?”

Ye Qianqian didn’t stop in her steps . Her cellphone suddenly sounded .

It was a phone call .

The caller was Shen Zhilie!

Ye Qianqian quickly answered the call, “Hello?”

“Yeah . ” It was Shen Zhilie’s voice .

Ye Qianqian heaved a huge sigh of relief and anxiously yelled, “Where are you?”

“Oh…” Shen Zhilie sounded as if he had just woken up from a deep sleep . He replied, “I ended work a little early today, so my colleagues dragged me off for some drinks . I drank a little too much and got drunk, which is why I wasn’t able to answer the phone . ”

Ye Qianqian had been worried for a long time only to receive such an explanation from him . She suddenly felt as if she had vastly overreacted .

Ye Qianqian clenched her jaw and slammed the door that she had just opened shut . She admonished, “What the hell? Where are you now? I’ll come to pick you up!”

“That’s not necessary . I’m resting at my colleague’s place now . Oh right! I need to return home in the Capital for a while . Something cropped up with my brother, so I need to rush back . ”

“Shen Luo’an?”

“Yeah . ” Shen Zhilie simply replied . He sounded very weak .

Ye Qianqian could tell from his tone that he wasn’t in a good state . He must have drunk a lot . A little annoyed, but powerless to do anything about it, she asked, “What time is your flight tomorrow? I’ll pack your luggage for you and send it over . Where does your colleague live?”

“It’s fine . It’s a male colleague . If you don’t believe me, I’ll have him come to the phone now . ”

With that, she heard some static on the other line .

“No . That’s not it…”

She just wanted to see him . It had been an excruciating night of worry, and she was still feeling unsettled .

However, Ye Qianqian changed her mind . The words disappeared in her throat .

“Hello, Sister-in-law . I’m Zhou Dawei . You can just call me Xiao Zhou . Dr . Shen was eating at my place and accidentally drank a little too much . It’s late now, and Dr . Shen isn’t in a very good state . In addition to that, he has a flight to catch in the morning back to the Capital . Why don’t you just leave him to rest at my place?”

Xiao Zhou sounded very alert . Ye Qianqian was quiet for a while before asking, “Didn’t you drink?”

“Um…” Xiao Zhou sounded a little embarrassed . “My wife won’t let me drink because I’ve been suffering from gastric ulcers lately . I had no choice but to have my buddies drink on my behalf . I’m sorry that you’ll have to sleep alone tonight, Sister-in-law . I’ll make sure this doesn’t happen again with Dr . Shen . I promise . ”

Ye Qianqian pursed her lips and replied none too kindly, “Forget it . Remember to give him some honey water to help with his hangover . Otherwise, it’s going to be a long flight . ”
