Chapter 532: Chapter 532 I’m so thirsty, I want to drink water... (4)

"I need water..." Lu Wanwan’s voice was exceptionally faint; had he not been holding her, he wouldn’t have heard her at all.

After ensuring no one saw him, Bai Lingyun quickly closed the door.

He laid Lu Wanwan on the bed and saw that her forehead was covered in beads of sweat.

Just as he was about to get up, her small hand accidentally caught his sleeve.

"Wait, I’ll get some water," he glanced at Lu Wanwan as he pried her hand off.

Lu Wanwan lay there on the large bed, long since delirious.

She felt so uncomfortable she wanted to move, but her body was uncooperative, lacking even the strength to turn over.

Bai Lingyun found the room’s minibar and took out a bottle of ice water.

"Here’s the water." He propped up the woman on the bed and began to feed her little by little.

The original plan was to let her drink a little, then he would call Song Ning, asking her to come over immediately.

Not only because of her condition but also because Bai Youchen might be nearby.

But as he fed her one sip after another, she drank like a bottomless pit.

The moment her lips touched the water, she drank incessantly like someone who hadn’t had any water in days, in an almost pathological state.

Worried she might choke, his movements were slow, and without realizing how much time had passed, she had finished half a bottle.

"You can’t drink any more," Bai Lingyun frowned, thinking to forcibly take the water away.

What in the world was going on, such strange symptoms.

When he first saw Lu Wanwan lying on the ground, he thought she’d been knocked unconscious.

Later, after picking her up, he worried she was drugged with something messy.

But now, it seemed like it was neither of those things.

Poisoned?

"Water... water!" Her whimpers were like a cat’s mewing, tearful, "I need water..."

Bai Lingyun hesitated for a moment before again offering the water to her mouth.

But soon, he forcibly took it away.

This wasn’t right, such abnormal symptoms; what if she shouldn’t be drinking any water?

He put Lu Wanwan back on the bed, ignoring her soft sobs.

"Song Ning, it’s me." He stood by the bed, his tone grave, and fast, "Come to Cloudtop Hotel right now. I’ll text you the address. Now, immediately! Start heading over, and I’ll fill you in as you go."

Clearly taken aback on the other end, Song Ning had never heard such urgency in his voice, "What happened?"

"Just come quickly! Don’t you want to find Bai Youchen?"

Song Ning glanced at the room she’d just left, "He’s with me, what’s the problem?"

Bai Lingyun froze, "He’s been there the entire time, not gone out?"

"Yeah, after Lu Wan had sent him back, he has been obediently healing these past few days."

"She got it wrong," his voice cooled down.

Across the street from the hotel, in a black limousine, a pair of cold blue eyes watched the Cloudtop Hotel.

In the car with him were two Caucasian henchmen.

The bald man expressed regret with a smirk, "Why not just drug them with something more enjoyable?"

"Mr. Cesar has his considerations," the middle-aged man in the car warned the bald man in a tone that cautioned restraint.

The man with the blue eyes seemed in a good mood and spoke lightly, "There’s no need to be so deliberate, too much is as bad as not enough."

What followed was waiting.

Bai Lingyun still stood by the bed, watching the woman in agony. Other than waiting, he didn’t know what to do.

A few words weren’t enough for Song Ning to be certain of anything.

Now all they could do was wait for Song Ning to come and take the woman away. If he tried to take Lu Wanwan out himself, he feared things would worsen.

This career that so easily drew attention was sometimes a real trouble.
