Tao Ning was born in a remote, impove...
Chapter 88 Chapter 88 Shura Field
That night, while sleeping, perhaps because Zhao Jingqun's hand around his waist was too hot, Tao Ning had that strange dream again. Only this time, instead of being in a house surrounded by containers containing "himself," he saw a person's jaw, unable to move his limbs.
This perspective was strange, because according to his last nightmare, those densely packed containers all contained him as a teenager. If this dream continued from the last nightmare, then he should also be the size of a teenager now.
Normally, if you open your eyes and see a person's chin, there is a high probability that he is being held in his arms. However, with the body of a teenager, Tao Ning couldn't imagine how he was held in someone's arms.
If you are doing a princess carry, the first thing you see should be the person's face.
It wasn't until the scene started spinning that Tao Ning finally realized what position he was in when he was held in someone's arms - through the huge display screen and the arc of light reflected from the glass, he saw that he had turned into a baby.
The person holding him was the man who smiled at him in his last nightmare.
Seeing himself transformed into a baby, held in someone's arms, was incredibly terrifying. But Tao Ning couldn't move or make a sound. He was like a bystander in this dream, and he heard a voice from above him say, "See? That's where you'll live from now on."
A hand with distinct joints reached out from behind him, pointing in the direction of the display screen. Tao Ning finally came to her senses and looked in the direction the man pointed. When she saw what was behind the screen, the creepy feeling came back.
At first he thought it was just a huge piece of glass, but it turned out to be pitch black. The glass clearly reflected the face of the person behind him. The man smiled slightly, and after he finished speaking, a huge blue sphere suddenly appeared in the originally dark place, as if it was very close.
Tao Ning knew that it was Earth...
And at this moment, he was actually in a space similar to a space station, looking at the huge earth from space from the perspective of a baby.
Everything seemed so bizarre, even terrifyingly absurd. Tao Ning was startled awake by this nightmare. As he struggled, the hand around his waist tightened even more. In the darkness, dry lips leaned over and kissed his forehead, followed by a muffled, incoherent voice: "What's wrong... I'm here..."
As soon as Zhao Jingqun's voice came out, Tao Ning's heart, which was almost frightened, instantly fell back into her chest. After hesitating for a moment, she slowly put down her hand that was originally against his chest to prevent him from getting close, and hugged Zhao Jingqun back for the first time in these few days.
No matter what these two nightmares reminded her of, at least she still had this person by her side. In the dark room, Tao Ning huddled in Zhao Jingqun's arms, hummed softly, and closed her eyes.
But the next day, Tao Ning became angry again and couldn't control herself.
It all started when Zhao Jingqun took him to the restroom. When passing by the wall covered with photos, Tao Ning glanced at one of the photos. He didn't know whether Zhao Jingqun scribbled on the photos of Song Yucong and Xu Jun unconsciously or subconsciously, because in one of the photos, a turtle was drawn on someone's face.
This black turtle stands out among the graffiti.
So Tao Ning couldn't help but take another look. However, at that glance, Zhao Jingqun's cold face twisted again. He rushed over and tore off the photo, tearing it to shreds in a few seconds. He twisted Tao Ning's shoulders and asked loudly in his ear, "Is that wild dog Song Yucong so attractive to you? You have to peek at him even when he's using the restroom?"
What is he looking at?
Tao Ning was stunned by the sudden rebuke.
However, this was not the end. Zhao Jingqun suddenly pushed him away, thinking of something else. He said coldly, "You hate me so much, Tao Ning. I locked you up here and humiliated you in various ways, forcing you to do things you didn't like. I knew that all you were thinking about were these two bitches, but I still asked you to compromise and say you loved me. You must feel disgusted..."
Although Tao Ning didn't know what was going on in Zhao Jingqun's mind, over the past few days, except for the time when Zhao Jingqun spoke too much and he lost his temper, Tao Ning let Zhao Jingqun do whatever he wanted, both in bed and out of bed. Only when Zhao Jingqun did something too shameful would Tao Ning struggle.
But even with all this going on, Zhao Jingqun thought he was "compromising"? Is that how the word "compromise" is used? If he's unwilling and would rather die than do anything extra, that's humiliating.
Tao Ning was so angry that she didn't know what to say. She opened her mouth to explain, but Zhao Jingqun wouldn't listen. Bloodshot eyes crept up again as she glared at him, her voice hoarse, "I know you hate me and are disgusted by me, but I don't care anymore, and I won't let you go... Absolutely not."
Zhao Jingqun is very tall and stands out in the crowd. Others will stay away from him because of his aura of being difficult to deal with. Tao Ning has also seen how ferocious and ruthless he is when beating people.
He was a man who always smiled when he spoke to him, and he didn't need to look up to talk to Zhao Jingqun, because Zhao Jingqun would hunch his back and lower his head. But now, Zhao Jingqun had obviously lost weight, and there was stubble on his chin, and he looked nothing like the high-spirited man he once was.
His heart began to ache uncontrollably, and the anger that had been burning in his stomach instantly dissipated. Tao Ning sighed inaudibly, walked over, and hugged the man who was a size bigger than him.
Tao Ning felt that he was struggling slightly, but in fact he didn't use much strength. He only struggled for a while, and Zhao Jingqun was still held in his arms like a piece of wood.
"Holding me...don't you find it disgusting?"
Knowing that Zhao Jingqun's strange thoughts had started again, Tao Ning said helplessly: "I didn't say that. Why did you think I was thinking about Song Yucong just now?" He clearly just glanced at Wang Ba.
Unexpectedly, a cold laugh came from above his head. Zhao Jingqun pushed him away without hesitation, his face gloomy. "You really did it for that wild dog Song Yucong. It's hard for you, Tao Ning, to hold back your nausea and hug me for him."
Tao Ning: "...You misunderstood."
Zhao Jingqun's face twisted for a moment, "Are you still lying to me, Tao Ning? Aren't you tired of this? I'm exhausted for you... What's that look in your eyes? I know, you must feel disgusted just by looking at me now. If you had known I was this kind of person, you..."
Bang, bang, bang! Before Tao Ning could explain, there was a rapid knock on the door. Zhao Jingqun's face changed, and he grabbed Tao Ning's hand and tried to push him into the room. Because the system said that Xu Jun and Song Yucong would know his location today, Tao Ning knew who was coming, and if Zhao Jingqun locked him in the room, he couldn't see the situation and couldn't imagine the consequences of the three of them meeting.
He quickly shouted, "Zhao Jingqun! If you dare to lock me up now, I will really hate you!" While Zhao Jingqun was stunned, Tao Ning grabbed the door frame with his hands. If Zhao Jingqun still wanted to close the door, the thick wooden door would crush his hands.
He only used his body to block the door frame because he didn't want to see irreversible consequences. But when Tao Ning looked up, he bumped into Zhao Jingqun's red eyes and couldn't help but tremble all over.
Tao Ning felt like he had something stuck in his throat. He had hurt Zhao Jingqun again. The sadness and grievance in his eyes were about to overflow.
With a loud bang!
The door had been kicked open. Tao Ning's breath caught as the person outside looked over. It was Xu Jun. His gaze wandered between Tao Ning and Zhao Jingqun until he saw Tao Ning's half-open pajamas and the dense, dense trail of kiss marks from her neck to her chest, extending all the way down.
The kisses seemed to mock the visitor's foolishness, and Xu Jun froze. Then, his gaze shifted downward, and he saw chains on Tao Ning's snow-white ankles. The golden chains, held together, clearly held a strong humiliating quality. However, the wearer's ankles were so thin and white, adding a touch of astringency.
There was no desperate scene of Tao Ning's painful struggle in Xu Jun's nightmare, only scenes full of beauty and interest. The scenes before him told him how stupid his anxiety and panic during this period were.
Xu Jun closed his eyes to keep himself from losing his composure, knowing that these images were another form of despair for him. Behind him, a panting voice could be heard. Song Yucong had rushed to the apartment in the city center as soon as he received news of Tao Ning's location.
None of them had expected that Tao Ning was hidden a few hundred meters away from Oxente.
"Why is it you again? Xu Jun, you're still haunting me..." Song Yucong ran up the stairs because he couldn't wait a moment longer to see Tao Ning. He had to see Tao Ning immediately, so when he saw the elevator was moving slowly, he simply ran up to the tenth floor in one breath according to the news.
After Song Yucong pushed Xu Jun away, he was also shocked by the scene before him and was speechless. "You...you..."
The two gazes were impossible to ignore, and Tao Ning felt like her upper body and ankles were on fire. Because Zhao Jingqun's behavior had been so absurd these days, Tao Ning had let him do what he wanted, sometimes even going a whole day without wearing any clothes. So, wearing these semi-revealing pajamas, Tao Ning's sense of shame had faded.
But this doesn't mean that he can remain calm while appearing in front of three people wearing clothes made of just a few pieces of cloth.
Tao Ning's cheeks flushed, and she wanted to cover the horrible kiss mark on her collarbone with her hands. However, when she stretched out her hands, she found kiss marks on her arms and elbows as well, "..." Zhao Jingqun, what a bastard!
Just when Tao Ning was about to explode with shame, he felt hot. It turned out that Zhao Jingqun had put a piece of clothing on him. The large windbreaker covered his body tightly, and except for his face, no other part of his body was exposed.
Throughout the entire process, Zhao Jingqun remained silent, his face expressionless. Tao Ning had no idea what he was thinking, but her throat tightened as she sensed the terrifying, impending pressure from the man before her.
The atmosphere in the living room suddenly became tense. No one spoke. Tao Ning felt like he was on a high-voltage wire. If he said a wrong word, it wouldn't just be thunder and lightning, it would plunge him into an abyss of no return. He had never imagined that the system, that stupid thing, would choose to send them the message when Zhao Jingqun was around.
Now...what should he do now? Before Tao Ning could come up with a solution, Song Yucong's exasperated scream broke the silence: "What are you doing? - What are you doing?!"
It looked like Song Yucong's expression was about to break into pieces. He grabbed his hair, as if he couldn't believe what he saw, and his breathing became more and more rapid.
Tao Ning had seen him in fits of illness, just like now. Worried that something might happen to Song Yucong, he took a small step forward, his golden chain rustling. On the bed, Tao Ning had felt nothing but shame and indignation, but now it felt like a death warrant, terrifying him.
But what surprised Tao Ning was that Zhao Jingqun didn't look angry at all. Instead, he forced a smile on his face, his lips twitching, and he put his arm around Tao Ning's shoulders affectionately, saying with a smile, "Baby, who are these two people? How could they break into our house?"
This wasn't the right reaction. Zhao Jingqun's tone was too calm, completely devoid of the aggressiveness he'd had earlier. It was as if he was just seeing two ordinary friends of Tao Ning, not his hated rivals. But precisely because of his calmness, Tao Ning felt a chill run down his spine.
"He...they..."
As soon as Tao Ning opened his mouth, Song Yucong roared in rage, like a bomb that had ignited a fuse: "What are you pretending to be, you dog? Tao Ning, didn't you say he was just your cousin? Did you know he has a wife? He told me himself that he has a wife!!"
Zhao Jingqun remained calm and said with a smile, "Oh, I forgot to tell you, my wife is Tao Ning." Then the corners of his mouth curved even wider. "Why are you so concerned about my wife? Could it be that you are her lover outside? Haha."
Without waiting for Song Yucong to speak, he laughed a few more times and continued, "Have you slept with me? How many times? My wife is very soft, right? Look, if you didn't miss her, why would you find her here? It's a pity that I don't have anything good to treat you. How about this, I'll kill you and then fuck my wife over your corpses, how about that?"
Tao Ning widened her eyes and realized that Zhao Jingqun's smile was very strange, even to the point of being creepy. It turned out that the corners of his mouth were raised, but his eyes were cold and calm, without any fluctuation at all.
This was indeed a sign of impending disaster. Tao Ning shouted, "Hurry up!"
But the two people at the door didn't move. Xu Jun just frowned slightly and pulled his phone from his pocket. At that moment, there was a bang, and the bullet pierced the phone screen, shattering it into pieces. Blood flowed down Xu Jun's palm and fell to the ground. Song Yucong opened his mouth to say something, but his throat was blocked. "...Are you crazy?"
It wasn't a scare stun gun, but a real gun with live ammunition! Tao Ning was also stunned by the sound of the gunshot. She suddenly grabbed the sleeve of the person in front of her, her voice trembling: "Zhao Jingqun, you can't do this, you can't do this! You said you would be with me forever. If you kill them, you will go to jail and you will die!... Who will be with me forever then?"
Tao Ning had never spoken so excitedly before. He was really scared. Zhao Jingqun was not pretending to be crazy to threaten or scare him, but he was really a madman who didn't care about anything. If he had missed the target by even a little bit, Xu Jun would have been dead.
He is really crazy!!
Zhao Jingqun still had a smile on his face, but this time, this strange smile finally carried a hint of genuine emotion. He held a real gun in his hand that could go off at any moment, and he hugged Tao Ning in return. Suddenly, he said excitedly, "So you want to spend your whole life with me. That's great, that's great, Tao Ning."
"Yes... I want to spend my whole life with you..." Tao Ning felt no warmth in this embrace. It was like being held by the god of death. He spoke in the softest and gentlest voice he had ever spoken in his life, but his voice was slightly distorted at the end. "So, so, can you put the gun down?"
Zhao Jingqun buried her head in his neck, her voice a little unclear, "Are you telling the truth?"
“Yes…it’s the truth…”
"You won't lie to me?"
"......Won't."
There was a moment of silence. Zhao Jingqun suddenly raised his head and looked at Tao Ning. He raised his gun and pointed it at the door with one hand, smiling sarcastically, "What if I insist on killing them?"
After saying that, he pulled the trigger with one finger. Tao Ning's pupils constricted, and she instantly rushed over, uttering an almost heartbreaking cry: "No!!!"
Tao Ning instantly knocked Zhao Jingqun to the ground. With a gunshot behind him, his neck became stiff as if petrified. Tao Ning turned his head suddenly, and the air and time seemed to stop with his movement.
His heart almost stopped beating until the two people at the door were standing there unharmed, with bullet holes left on the wall next to them. Only then did Tao Ning's soul return to his body and he breathed a sigh of relief.
He snatched the gun from Zhao Jingqun's hand, and Xu Jun behind him shouted, "Be careful! Don't touch that gun!" But nothing happened. Tao Ning looked at the person under him, but met a pair of calm eyes.
"There were only two bullets in it." Zhao Jingqun lay on the ground, without a smile or expression, looking at Tao Ning quietly, "They were used to kill you, and in the end I used it to commit suicide."
