Chapter 2895: Pinched Her Nose

No matter where she ran to, it kept chasing relentlessly.

Eventually, she fled into the forest, and night had fallen.

The beast’s eyes glared at her intently in the darkness.

Li Mingxi felt there was no escape.

She kept retreating, retreating, until her back hit a rock wall, with nowhere left to go.

In front of her, the black mist suddenly transformed into the shape of the beast, its eyes as big as copper bells, and it could spit fire.

Its gaping mouth was drooling continuously, the saliva collecting, flowing over her knees, her waist, her neck...

Then to her mouth!

The beast’s saliva poured into her mouth, and she felt so disgusted, wanting to vomit it out, but instead, she gurgled and swallowed more.

The beast extended its sharp claws towards her, and Li Mingxi felt utterly hopeless, thinking she was doomed.

But the beast didn’t tear her body apart; instead, it pinched her nose tightly!

[Suffocate you, suffocate you...]

The beast kept saying to her, showing a smug smile.

Li Mingxi couldn’t breathe and was about to suffocate.

She struggled with all her might, and with a forceful effort, she broke free from the beast and opened her eyes, waking up.

"Cough, cough..." Li Mingxi instinctively coughed, as if choking.

Her blurred vision gradually cleared, and she saw a shirtless man standing in front of her.

The familiar features became clear, and Li Mingxi’s pupils widened in shock.

The person standing before her was none other than Xiao Lang!

Li Mingxi looked around, suddenly remembering she was taking a soak in the hotel’s hot spring.

She had fallen asleep, but when did Xiao Lang arrive?

What had just happened?

Li Mingxi felt as though someone pinched her nose. Could it be that the one who pinched her nose was Xiao Lang?

What was he trying to do, did he really want to suffocate her?

Li Mingxi quickly sorted her thoughts, angrily glaring at Xiao Lang, and said furiously, "What were you doing just now? Planning to suffocate me?!"

Seeing her flushed cheeks, Xiao Lang crossed his arms and said with amusement, "You were sleeping in the pool and slipped into the water yourself, and you’re blaming me instead?"

"But you pinched my nose!"

"If I didn’t pinch your nose, who knows when you would have woken up."

There are many ways to wake a person up, but he chose this method on purpose.

Li Mingxi didn’t want to argue with him anymore.

"What are you doing here?" she asked calmly, "Did you follow me?"

Xiao Lang raised an eyebrow, his voice flat, "You really think too highly of yourself. It’s a hotel, if you’re allowed here, why can’t I be here too?"

But such coincidences rarely happen.

She came to this hotel, and he came too; she came for a bath, and he appeared again.

Forget it, whatever the reason he came for, it had nothing to do with her.

Li Mingxi smiled and said, "You’re right, maybe it’s just a coincidence. Then I’m leaving now; I’m going to the bar for a drink. Hopefully, we won’t run into each other at the bar."

Xiao Lang frowned, his voice turning colder, "Having just soaked in the hot spring and then going to drink, do you have no regard for your life?"

Soaking in hot springs accelerates blood circulation. Whether it’s before, after, or during a soak, it’s best not to drink alcohol.

If you drink, just have a little, and not too much.

Because with the accelerated blood flow, alcohol is absorbed into the body faster, which can lead to alcohol poisoning, or in severe cases, death.

Xiao Lang knew this common sense, and as a doctor, Li Mingxi should be even more aware.
