Bab 825: Scram, You Fool! (1)

Li Meili was frozen in place for a moment before she snapped out from her daze and rushed up to her husband's side. She shook him by his shoulder but Zhang Jiren didn't respond.

"Zhang Jiren!" she called out again and again, but he didn't give her the slightest reaction. How could this happen? Li Meili thought. She shouldn't have agreed to have a night out with him if she knew he was not up to it. 

She put her hand on his forehead and immediately felt that he was burning up. Li Meili tried to lift him off the floor, but he was just too heavy and tall for her. 

"Darling, you have to wake up. Please…" she begged him before frantically looking around for a phone to seek help. Her fingers immediately dialed her best friend's number she knew by heart. 

Her hands were visibly shaking as she held the phone in her hand. After three rings, Tang Moyu finally picked up her call. Li Meili couldn't think of anyone who could help her except for the empress.
