Divorce Is An Absolute Must! - Chapter 10

Chapter 10: Forced Kiss

◎Angry, shaky, cold.◎

Qian Cancan cautiously said, “Li… cough, Jie?”

Li Lan let out a soft “Mm.” Her gaze swept over the young women’s heavily made-up faces and inappropriate clothing, and finally settled on their hands, which were grabbing Zhu Qing.

The young women all shivered, a chill spreading up their backs.

Qian Cancan seized the opportunity and quickly pulled Zhu Qing away from the group.

However, Zhu Qing was not grateful. She glared at the person who tricked her into drinking with a look of deep-seated animosity. “Either you return the wine for me, or you drink it all yourself.”

“Why are you making it hard for her?” Qian Cancan frantically hinted at Zhu Qing. “Your wife is here. Hurry up and stop talking.”

Li Lan walked straight toward them, and the crowd automatically made a path for her.

Qian Cancan said loudly, “Why are you all still here?! Get out!”

The young women felt as if they had been granted amnesty. They were no longer reluctant and scurried out of the room.

“Sister Li Lan,” Qian Cancan knew Zhu Qing’s appearance was a bit inappropriate and said tactfully, “She just couldn’t hold back and drank a little too much. I can testify that there was nothing else…”

Li Lan raised a hand, her palm facing outward, and pushed it away. It was a clear gesture of rejection.

Qian Cancan’s voice came to a sudden stop.

That hand then rested on Zhu Qing’s shoulder. Li Lan put one of Zhu Qing’s arms over her shoulder and moved her onto her own body.

Zhu Qing felt the movement and began waving her hands restlessly. She turned around in Li Lan’s arms, frowned, and stared at Li Lan in a surrendering posture. “Who are you?”

Li Lan took off her sunglasses and pulled down her face mask. She didn’t say anything, just used the back of her hand to touch Zhu Qing’s face and forehead, making sure she didn’t have a fever.

Zhu Qing didn’t resist being handled. She tried hard to open her eyes, and her gaze went from hazy to clear before suddenly widening.

“Li Lan?”

“Let’s go home.”

The two voices sounded at the same time. Zhu Qing pursed her lips and her eyes widened into perfect circles. Her brain circuits were running so hard they were smoking, but she still couldn’t figure out how Li Lan could be here.

Li Lan didn’t give her time to react. Seeing that she had recognized her, she looked down and nodded, put on her face mask again, and started to walk out with her.

Qian Cancan was worried about her friend and followed closely, shifting to the left to look at Zhu Qing and then carefully shifting to the right to look at Li Lan’s expression.

Unfortunately, Li Lan’s entire face was covered, so Qian Cancan couldn’t tell what her mood was.

Coming out of the back door, a car with its headlights on was waiting around the corner.

Qian Chu got out of the car and walked up to help. “Should I help her?”

Li Lan ignored her and turned to Qian Cancan. “It’s late. Would you mind giving Qian Chu a ride home?”

Qian Chu, who had insisted on following but was told not to enter, and was now being kicked out of the car: …

The look of worry on Qian Cancan’s face instantly disappeared, and she smiled. “Why would it be a bother? Of course, not a problem.”

After saying that, she didn’t even look at Zhu Qing and turned to make a “please” gesture to Qian Chu. “My car is over there.”

Qian Chu confirmed again that Li Lan had no intention of letting her get in the car and could only leave with Qian Cancan.

Qian Cancan’s smile remained at a perfect arc. She opened the passenger door, motioned for Qian Chu to get in, and asked considerately, “Do you want me to turn on the air conditioner?”

Qian Chu was silent for two seconds. “Are you going to drive drunk?”

Qian Cancan, whose mind was filled with other thoughts, came back to her senses, and her smile instantly became awkward.

Qian Chu had never driven a six-figure sports car before. She fumbled with the controls for a while before getting the hang of them, and her face became even more unhappy.

After the car started, Qian Cancan turned her head to look at Qian Chu. “How did you know Zhu Qing and I were here?”

She hadn’t drunk much, mainly just to keep Zhu Qing company. Most of her intoxication had faded after seeing Li Lan, and she had sobered up quite a bit after seeing Qian Chu. Now that she was back to normal, a quick thought made her understand the whole story.

Qian Chu tapped the steering wheel with her middle finger, her brows furrowed. “The video you posted on your Moments.”

Qian Cancan suddenly realized, without any remorse for having sold out her friend. A mysterious smile once again appeared on her face.

At this point, Qian Chu’s mouth turned downward, and she couldn’t help but say, “Why do you post eight Moments a day?”

Her friends were all in the industry. Everyone worked hard to use Moments as a functional tool to build their image, maintain connections, and get firsthand information. She really couldn’t understand how someone could use it like a daily journal and post eight times a day.

Did Qian Cancan have some obsession with making people think she was a sweet, naive rich girl with more money than sense?

Qian Cancan didn’t understand Qian Chu’s subtext at all and said frankly, “When something fun or funny happens, I post it to make everyone happy.”

After saying that, she blinked and said in a low voice, “Hey, have you been paying attention to my Moments this whole time?”

Qian Chu gave a fake laugh. “Yes. After all, my boss is very concerned about Ms. Zhu, and Ms. Zhu appears very frequently in your Moments.”

Qian Cancan remembered something and said in shock, “So today, no, yesterday at noon, when we went out to eat and ran into you, it wasn’t a coincidence?!”

Qian Chu gave a faint smile.

Qian Cancan pretended to be regretful. “Sigh, I’ll have to be more careful with what I say and do in the future.”

As she spoke, Qian Cancan took out her phone, secretly took a photo of Qian Chu’s profile, and sent it out after blocking Qian Chu from seeing it.

“Ran into a beautiful older sister who’s giving me a ride home, bringing a perfect end to a wonderful night~ hearts:/Love you all”

…

Li Lan steadily kept the car speed at the edge of the speed limit, driving home as fast as she could.

Zhu Qing was lying in the back seat, with three seat belts on her. She kept restlessly flipping around.

“Are you Li Lan?”

“Why did you come to pick me up?”

“I still haven’t gotten my graduation certificate.”

“Someone said I was a kindergarten teacher. Are you going to take me to the kindergarten? But I don’t like kids.”

“Do you have a wife? I have one, you know.”

“Do you know my wife?”

Li Lan was initially furious listening to this, but by the end, she couldn’t help but feel a little softhearted.

But she was still angry.

So much so that she didn’t hold back her strength as she dragged her from the garage to the elevator and then to the front door. She held Zhu Qing’s waist tightly, trapping her in her arms, and Zhu Qing’s entire face turned red.

“Why are you using so much force?” Zhu Qing was thrown onto the sofa and accused her with reddened eyes, “What did I do wrong this time?”

Li Lan took off all her disguises. Her hair was a little messy, fluffed up on both sides of her cheeks, making her already exquisite features even more breathtaking.

Under the light, Zhu Qing felt like she had run into a man-eating fairy.

Li Lan stared at her, her lips trembling with anger.

“You said you wouldn’t drink outside again,” Li Lan’s voice was very low.

Zhu Qing didn’t hear clearly and just stared at Li Lan in a daze without saying anything.

Li Lan closed her eyes, trying her best to stabilize her emotions.

But as soon as she thought of the scene of Zhu Qing with those women, the bl00d in her body rushed to her head, and she couldn’t calm down at all.

She knew very well what Zhu Qing was like when she was drunk. Zhu Qing was different from everyone else. As long as she was so drunk that she couldn’t think straight, she would cooperate with anything if you just threw her on the bed. She wouldn’t refuse at all, and the next day, she wouldn’t remember any of it!

“Don’t be angry,” Zhu Qing suddenly grabbed Li Lan’s hand softly. “Little fairies don’t look good when they’re angry.”

Li Lan couldn’t hold back anymore. She pinched her chin, lowered her head, and kissed her.

Zhu Qing’s eyes shot wide open.
