He Lingling, her mind fogged by alcohol, saw Li Fengnian and fire seemed to burst from her eyes. She stood up abruptly, intending to lash out at him.
So she pointed at Li Fengnian, "You, you, you, you..."
Her right foot tripped over her left, and before He Lingling could fully articulate her accusation, she suddenly lurched forward.
At that moment, all Li Fengnian had to do was extend a hand to catch He Lingling and steady her on her feet!
But instead of helping, he stepped back two paces.
"Ah!" He Lingling let out a cry of alarm, stumbling forward another two steps as she fell.
Not wanting to crash face-first into the floor, she grabbed at anything she could, which resulted in her tumbling toward Li Fengnian, clutching his belt tightly. She stumbled another two steps and her head hit his chest.
With the fall and the collision, her head felt even dizzier, her vision growing more blurred.
