After seeing Han Lu off, Ye Linyan returned to her bedroom, still seething with anger. When she picked up her phone, she realized it was only a little past three in the morning.
After all that commotion, he was no longer sleepy. He went into the bathroom and took a quick shower, which finally made his hangover headache feel a little better!
Just as I put on my bathrobe, Wang Mingwu knocked on the door.
"Come in."
"Boss, I've come to get Xu Nuo's clothes."
With a dark expression, Ye Linyan took out a set of black loungewear from the closet.
"that..................."
"The wound has been treated again, and the doctor said that if I take good care of it, I won't be left with any disabilities."
Wang Mingwu stood at the door with the clothes in his hand. Seeing that Ye Linyan didn't ask anything else, he added:
“He doesn’t seem to have eaten; the food that was placed on his bedside table was knocked over.”
"Eat it or don't, it's up to you!"
Ye Linyan lit a cigarette in frustration, thinking that it was just Xu Nuo's usual tactic, and he would see how long Xu Nuo could endure it.
——————————————————
When Wang Mingwu brought in the clothes, Xu Nuo had fallen asleep again. Wang Mingwu placed the clothes on the bedside table and, seeing how soundly he slept, couldn't help but feel a little strange…
The food delivered last night was still scattered on the ground. Wang Mingwu sighed softly and began to clean up.
After tidying up and closing the door, Ye Linyan also came out of the bedroom.
Looking at Ye Linyan, who was wearing a tailored suit and had his hair neatly styled, Wang Mingwu asked:
"It's not dawn yet."
"Go to the company."
Ye Linyan walked to the top of the stairs, glanced at the guest room, and saw that it was very quiet:
What is he doing?
"She's asleep."
Wang Mingwu replied, carrying a broom in one hand and a mop in the other.
"Sleeping again?"
Ye Linyan couldn't help but feel puzzled.
"Could it be because of the anesthesia?"
Wang Mingwu wasn't sure if there was any connection, but Xu Nuo did sleep, and slept very soundly.
Ye Linyan glanced at Wang Mingwu, then adjusted his watch as he went downstairs:
"Let's find a cleaning lady to clean the house."
"Okay, boss."
Wang Mingwu was just thinking about whether or not to mention this matter to Ye Linyan while he was cleaning.
That's great, I finally don't have to do cleaning work anymore.
Wang Mingwu drove Ye Linyan to the company and stopped at a breakfast shop on the way.
"Awu, buy him some food to take back, I'll go to the company myself."
"Um."
Just as Wang Mingwu was about to get out of the car, Ye Linyan called him back:
"From today onwards, you don't need to follow me. Just keep an eye on him."
Wang Mingwu hesitated for a moment, and Ye Linyan noticed his hesitation:
"Is there a problem?"
"No, it's not..."
Wang Mingwu wanted to refuse, but didn't know how to bring it up.
I don't trust anyone else.
“Okay, boss.” Wang Mingwu got out of the car.
Ye Linyan moved to the driver's seat and rolled down the window before leaving:
"I'll give you a raise."
.................................................................................
Xu Nuo was fast asleep when she was woken up, and she was furious.
"Get up and eat something."
"I'm not eating, leave me alone!"
Xu Nuo rolled over, pulling at the wound on her leg, and gasped.
"I'll put it on your bedside table."
Wang Mingwu checked the time; it was almost noon. Xu Nuo had slept for far too long.
Xu Nuo lay in bed for another half hour, but when she lost her sleepiness, she reluctantly sat up. There was no one in the room anymore, and there was a steaming meal on the bedside table.
Despite the delicious-looking food, Xu Nuo had no appetite. She tried to get out of bed, but the moment she moved her leg, she was in excruciating pain!
"The anesthetic effect lasts far too short!"
After muttering something to himself, Xu Nuo lay back down on the bed, staring blankly at the ceiling.
Over the past few months, he's gotten used to the boredom. No phone, no one to talk to; aside from sleeping, he spends most of his time lost in thought...
Xu Nuo felt like she was going crazy!
He thinks about memories the most, but recently he has discovered that he can't remember many things, such as when his eyes started to see.
He couldn't recall the specific timeframe...
Xu Nuo tried to recall things from earlier times, before he came to China, when he was abroad, but those things were even more blurry!
Thinking about the people and things from the past, Xu Nuo suddenly remembered Ye Mao's mother. He couldn't remember much else about Ye Mao's mother; the images that flashed through his mind were all terrifying scenes of her drug withdrawal!
Xu Nuo sat up abruptly. The image of the emaciated, crazed woman was so clear, but the clearer the image, the more terrified Xu Nuo felt!
That woman was willing to sell her ten-year-old kitten to organ traffickers for such a small amount of drugs...
Xu Nuo dared not imagine what she would become or what she would do!
He felt a chill run through him, and although he wrapped the blanket tightly around himself, he was still shivering uncontrollably.................
One day, he too will become that inhuman, ghost-like creature, and he too will do those unpredictable things...
No! He can't stay here!
Xu Nuo kept telling himself that he couldn't stay here any longer; he didn't want Ye Linyan to see him experiencing withdrawal symptoms!
Enduring the pain, Xu Nuo dragged her legs off the bed. She locked the door first, then lay down and slowly moved under the bed to find the small bag of red pills she had hidden.
After counting, there were only a dozen or so grains, which she had painstakingly stolen one by one from Nan Qing'an.
He took out one, hid the rest, and then Xu Nuo crawled out from under the bed.
He felt terrible all over. It was only the beginning of the discomfort that made Xu Nuo feel like he was going to have a hard time. Last time, Nan Qing'an made him endure it for more than two hours before giving him the medicine. He didn't want to experience that feeling again.
Looking at the red pill in her hand, Xu Nuo remembered what the night owl had told her:
"You can't hold on? If you can't hold on, why don't you just die!"
Yes, they won't be able to hold on any longer!
Xu Nuo couldn't help but smile and popped the pill into her mouth.
But I can't die here!
Night Owl's words echoed in her ears like a spell. Xu Nuo tilted her head back against the bed, as if responding to Night Owl's words:
"If I die here, he won't have a good life afterward..."
