I just want to pamper you

Chapter 276 Nightmare
She had a long dream.

In the dream, there was a piece of red, the color of fire, and the color of blood, intertwined and blended in the suffocating darkness.

She was trapped in the middle, unable to move her body.

That near-death collapse left her breathless.

Just as she was struggling, her hand was held.

The man's palm was wide and warm, soothing her anxiety little by little.

Xu Miaomiao lifted her eyelids with great effort, perhaps because she hadn't seen the light for a long time, what appeared in front of her eyes was a blurred overlapping image.

Gradually, a familiar face was reflected in her eyes.

At that moment, she almost subconsciously wanted to reach out and hug the man in front of her to make sure if she was dreaming, but except for the movement of her eyeballs, her whole body was weak and weak, and it was difficult to even move her fingertips.

The man looked at her dumbfounded look, and couldn't help but frowned.

"Can you talk? What's wrong?"

She didn't make a sound, but just stared at him without blinking. Even in the dim light, she still saw the bloodshot eyes in his eyes, and the look of tiredness in his brows and eyes.

Seeing that she was silent, the man's brows furrowed even deeper.

He stood up and wanted to go out and call the doctor, but she thought he was leaving, so she hurriedly said in a hoarse voice, "I'm fine, I just want to drink water..."

Hearing this, the man's face softened a little.

He turned and walked towards the tea table, and poured her a glass of water.

With his help, Xu Miaomiao barely sat up straight.

Following the glass he handed over, she took a sip of water, her throat was still sore and dry, even drinking water would make her feel like she was being burned.

After taking a sip, she shook her head, "I don't want it anymore."

The eyelashes moved, she lowered her eyes, stared at the hand with the needle inserted in the back of her hand, and fell into a trance again.

Mu Junting didn't know what she was thinking. Regarding the kidnapping case, he didn't want to mention a word in front of her now.

Touching her cheek, he said, "Sleep for a while?"

The man's voice was surprisingly gentle and nice.

Under the dim light, that handsome and indifferent face was a face that fascinated people. Looking at that face, Xu Miaomiao couldn't connect with the man who was like an executioner that day.

He has always been an elegant and noble son, but Xu Miaomiao also knows his methods.

Even though she had heard of some of his brutal and violent deeds, she had never seen it with her own eyes.

Until in that abandoned building, she saw with her own eyes that he broke Zhao Ningna's tendons with a knife, and watched him slash Zhao Ningna's body...

She closed her eyes, trying not to let herself think about those bloody pictures.

Mu Junting noticed the change on her face, and suddenly there was a bit of uncontrollable gloom in her gentle and slow expression.

As cautious and shrewd as he is, he seems to be able to detect anything wrong with her at a glance.

"What are you thinking about?"

Naturally, under his "hot eyes", Xu Miaomiao didn't want to cover up anything needlessly.

"Zhao Ningna..."

"died."

"..."

His indifference seemed to be covered with ice, Xu Miaomiao couldn't tell what she felt in her heart, and her face didn't fluctuate too much.

It was just that some messy memories were desperately squeezed into her mind, as if they were going to blow up.

She was silent.

The man glanced at him lightly, and put the water glass in his hand back on the table. He sat on the edge of the sofa and looked in her direction thoughtfully, "Did you see something?"
