Chapter 56 Take it Home
Although we have only met each other twice, I still have to save him. Even ghosts would help, let alone someone I have a good impression of.
Tan Xuan rushed to the food court at lightning speed. Fortunately, there were not many cars on the road at that time, and the road was smooth without any obstructions. Even the traffic lights were very eye-catching, so Tan Xuan did not waste time saving people.
After parking the car, Tan Xuan ran into the restaurant, ignoring the waiter's reminder that the chef had gone off duty and would not be serving any guests.
Tan Xuan ran up to the second floor. It was very quiet. There were no guests in the empty hall. There were only a few waiters who were slowly packing up. Tan Xuan stopped a waiter and asked anxiously, "Where is the bathroom?"
Tan Xuan couldn't help but be anxious. He hadn't heard Jiang Yingyue's voice on the phone for a long time. He guessed that the effect of the drug had completely taken effect. Who knew if she had been taken away by someone.
"You're in such a hurry? Turns out you want to use the toilet!" The waiter curled his lips in disdain. He was no longer polite or flattering. His attitude took a 180-degree turn compared to when he first saw Tan Xuan.
"Stop talking nonsense." Tan Xuan pushed the waiter away. He had already seen the sign for the bathroom and ran over in two steps.
"Hmm! Why not?"
Tan Xuan was dumbfounded when he pushed open the bathroom door. There were only two partitions inside, and now the partition doors were open. There was no sign of Jiang Yingyue at all. Not to mention that she was dizzy, there was not even anyone going to the toilet.
"Oh my god!" Tan Xuan, feeling disgusted, slapped his forehead hard, turned around and ran out. Jiang Yingyue is a woman, how could she faint in the men's restroom.
After entering the women's restroom next door, the partition near the window was locked, indicating that someone was inside. Tan Xuan walked up and knocked on the door gently, "Is anyone there... Jiang Yingyue, are you in there?"
After asking twice, there was no answer from inside the partition. Tan Xuan was not anxious, but relaxed a little. No answer was better than an answer at this time. What if other people's voices were heard from inside? Even if it was not someone shouting to catch a gangster, the person asking for help would be gone, which would make Tan Xuan even more anxious.
Tan Xuan leaned over with his hands on the ground, turned his head and looked inside through the gap under the door . It was empty inside and he found nothing.
"Where is the person?" Tan Xuan was puzzled. He put his hand on the wooden board of the partition, kicked on the windowsill, and then jumped directly onto the top of the partition door.
Looking down at the partition, Tan Xuan smiled. No wonder he couldn't see Jiang Yingyue's feet from below. It turned out that she was sitting on the toilet tank, with her feet on the toilet lid and her arms stuck on the tissue box. Although her body was twisted and looked very uncomfortable, at least she didn't fall down.
"Not bad, quite smart, but how come you were drugged when you're so smart?"
Tan Xuan turned over, jumped from the door, turned around to open the partition door, and then picked up Jiang Yingyue. A smell of alcohol rushed into Tan Xuan's mouth and nose, almost making him vomit.
"Damn, how much alcohol did he drink? Is it necessary to give him drugs when he is this drunk?"
Tan Xuan shook his head and quietly hugged Jiang Yingyue tightly.
"don't want……"
Jiang Yingyue was still conscious, and when she felt herself being picked up, she screamed and raised her hand to slap Tan Xuan's arm. Unfortunately, her voice was too soft, and even Tan Xuan, who was holding her, didn't hear it clearly. The two hits she made on Tan Xuan were just like tickling, and had no effect at all.
"Don't move, I'm Tan Xuan." Tan Xuan reminded, holding Jiang Yingyue's hand, and comforted her: "Don't worry, you're fine, I'll take you to the hospital now."
Tan Xuan didn't have time to find out who drugged Jiang Yingyue. After he woke her up, everything became clear. It was easy to catch someone who drugged her, so Tan Xuan didn't worry at all that the person who drugged her would get away.
As if she heard Tan Xuan's voice, Jiang Yingyue stopped her weak struggle and leaned subconsciously into Tan Xuan's arms.
Walking into the lobby on the second floor, Tan Xuan was surrounded by several waiters holding cups and plates.
"What are you doing? Let the girl go quickly, or we'll call the police."
Tan Xuan glared at the few people who were obviously bluffing, and shouted angrily: "Get lost, my girlfriend was drugged, I want to send her to the hospital immediately, and I will settle the score with that bastard who drugged her when my girlfriend is fine. If you want to call the police, please do so now. If you don't, I will report it later. How could my girlfriend be drugged while eating at your place? If you stop me, I will settle the score with you."
It is not easy to carry a young girl out, so Tan Xuan can only lie that Jiang Yingyue is her girlfriend and act angry. Otherwise, judging from the attitude of those people, it will be difficult for him to go downstairs easily.
Sure enough, Tan Xuan's noise made several waiters look at each other in confusion, a little at a loss for a moment, but they also called their leader over.
"What are you doing?"
A leader is a leader. He has a different aura when he appears on the stage and starts asking questions.
"Are you blind? Can't you see I'm holding someone? My girlfriend was drugged here. Luckily she was alert and hid in the bathroom when she noticed something was wrong, otherwise she would have been in danger. You wait, if she's fine, we can still talk it out. If she's in trouble, you guys won't be able to escape responsibility. Get out of the way!"
Tan Xuan hugged Jiang Yingyue and pushed aside the woman with the manager badge and walked out directly. When it comes to pretentiousness, Tan Xuan can beat that manager by ten blocks. This is because he has no time to pay attention to her, and if he doesn't let her, he will definitely make her pay.
Tan Xuan put Jiang Yingyue in the back seat and laid her down. There was limited space and she couldn't stretch her legs. She just had to make sure her head was fine. Before Tan Xuan could close the door, he saw Jiang Yingyue's lips move slightly.
"water……"
"Okay, wait a minute." Tan Xuan took out a bottle of water from the trunk, lifted Jiang Yingyue's head, unscrewed the bottle cap and slowly poured it into her mouth. He didn't dare to pour it too quickly for fear of choking her.
“Cough… cough…”
Even though Tan Xuan was careful, Jiang Yingyue still choked a little, and got water on her clothes and the seat.
Tan Xuan put Jiang Yingyue down and whispered to comfort her: "Just bear with it, I will send you to the hospital right away, you will be fine soon."
"No..." Jiang Yingyue opened her eyes slightly and called out to Tan Xuan in a weak voice.
"I'm fine... I just need to get some sleep... No need to go..." Jiang Yingyue said weakly.
Tan Xuan looked at Jiang Yingyue, frowned and said, "You can't even speak clearly, and you're still okay?"
"I'm fine..."
"Are you really alright?"
"real……"
Seeing that Jiang Yingyue's thoughts were still clear but her tongue seemed to be a little difficult to speak, Tan Xuan felt a little relieved and no longer rushed to send Jiang Yingyue to the hospital. Jiang Yingyue closed her eyes again, which had not been opened to begin with, and seemed to fall asleep quickly.
Tan Xuan looked at Jiang Yingyue's sleeping posture and shook his head, grinning and said, "It's not comfortable to sleep here, where do you live? I'll take you back."
Tan Xuan pushed Jiang Yingyue a few times, but unfortunately Jiang Yingyue was sleeping very deeply this time and didn't react at all.
"Oh my god, are you going to sleep in my car until you wake up naturally? Then I won't be able to work today? And if I curl up like this, will I get sick?"
Tan Xuan felt a headache. He only knew that Jiang Yingyue's hometown was Tongyu County, but he couldn't find out her address in Jiangzhou. In her current condition, if she was sent to a hotel, a regular hotel would definitely not accept her. If she was not careful, the police would be called, and he would not be able to explain it clearly. Before Jiang Yingyue woke up and explained herself, she might have to stay in the police station.
After thinking for a while, Tan Xuan came up with a solution, "If it really doesn't work, I'll just take you to my house first. This way you'll be safe and I'll save myself some trouble."
It was impossible to ask Jiang Yingyue's opinion at this time, so Tan Xuan took the lead, closed the car door, got back into the car, and took Jiang Yingyue back to his home.
The unconscious person was very heavy, very heavy. Tan Xuan believed that the groom was able to lift up his bride during a wedding because of the power of love. Unfortunately, there was no such power between him and Jiang Yingyue. It took him a lot of energy to carry Jiang Yingyue up the stairs, and he also had to prevent her from bumping into things. It was too tiring.
"It seems that I am not cut out to be a gangster."
After Tan Xuan put Jiang Yingyue on the bed in the master bedroom, he began to breathe heavily.
Tan Xuan took out a quilt and covered Jiang Yingyue with it. As for her clothes, she should wear them. No matter if they were comfortable or not, Tan Xuan did not dare to move them for fear of doing something bad with good intentions. If there was a misunderstanding, it would be a big misunderstanding. Besides, the weather was a little cool, but not cold. Jiang Yingyue was not wearing much, and it would be inappropriate if she took any of them off. Tan Xuan just helped her take off her shoes. He didn't want to dirty his bed.
Tan Xuan is very good at taking care of people. After all, he has been serving his master for many years. However, taking care of a master is different from taking care of a stranger who is not unfamiliar to you. Especially taking care of a man is different from taking care of a woman. There are many inconveniences. Tan Xuan just got a warm wet towel to help Jiang Yingyue wipe her face and hands, then closed the door and went out. Just sleep, Tan Xuan also needs to rest.
When the sun was high in the sky, there was finally movement in the master bedroom.
"ah……"
A scream came from the bedroom and Tan Xuan hurried over.
"What's wrong?" Tan Xuan asked as he pushed open the door, only to see Jiang Yingyue sitting on the bed with a quilt in her arms, her hair disheveled and tears on her face.
"Tan Xuan?" Jiang Yingyue was stunned for a moment when she saw the person coming in, and then her tears flowed even faster.
"What is this place? Why are you here?"
Tan Xuan frowned, walked to the window and opened the curtains, then stood beside the bed and explained to Jiang Yingyue: "This is my home. You called me last night and told me that you were drugged. I said I would take you to the hospital, but you refused. I didn't know where you lived, so I brought you to my home."
"Really?" Jiang Yingyue rubbed her head. "I only remember calling you, and I don't remember much after that."
"Then you...then I..."
She couldn't remember certain things, which should be the side effects of the medicine. Seeing that Jiang Yingyue couldn't ask some questions and looked very uneasy, Tan Xuan smiled, "Don't worry, you were safe when I arrived at the hotel, and you didn't get hurt. You are also safe here with me. If you don't believe me, you can look at your body, your clothes are all well worn."
Jiang Yingyue lifted the quilt and looked inside. Just as Tan Xuan said, her clothes were still on her body. She immediately burst into laughter.
"thank you."
Realizing her previous state, Jiang Yingyue felt a little embarrassed. She blushed and reached out to wipe the tears from her face.
"You are welcome."
Before Tan Xuan could finish his polite remarks, Jiang Yingyue interrupted him with an awkward expression, "Where is your bathroom? Can I use it?"
"It's right there, go ahead." Tan Xuan pointed to another door inside the entrance. His master bedroom has an independent bathroom.
"Thanks."
Jiang Yingyue got up from the bed and went to the bathroom barefoot. She did her things very quickly without even taking off the thin blanket wrapped around her body.
"Hehe..." Hearing the sound of rapid water leakage coming from the bathroom, Tan Xuan shook his head and walked out of the bedroom.
