Lin Jun grabbed Bei Shuo’s hand. “Can traditional Chinese medicine stop the bleeding? Can it?”
Bei Shuo nodded gently.
“Please, please save her! Save her! You, go in. I’ll go look for the director. Please save her!” Lin Jun turned to leave after saying that. She was really on the verge of breaking down.
Mu Yao was saved. Lin Jun begged Bei Shuo to stay with Mu Yao, afraid that she would cause trouble again when she woke up.
Bei Shuo guarded Mu Yao for the entire night.
Mu Yao, who was sleeping, was so beautiful that it was unreal. Because of her illness, her skin was as white as porcelain.
Mu Yao had a sharp tongue and a casual sneer on her face. She always looked at people with arrogance and disdain, so even though she was beautiful when she was awake, she was not likable.
Now that she was sleeping quietly like this, she was like a little angel.
Mu Yao’s breathing suddenly quickened. Bei Shuo hurriedly reached out to feel her pulse. It was rapid and weak.
“Mu Yao, Mu Yao? Can you hear me? Mu Yao, wake up, can you wake up? I’m Bei Shuo. I’m your sister-in-law.” Bei Shuo patted Mu Yao’s face gently as she called out to her.
Mu Yao was stunned. She opened her eyes and panted as she stared at the ceiling.
“Mu Yao? Mu Yao?” Bei Shuo continued to call her.
Mu Yao finally turned to look at Bei Shuo.
Bei Shuo smiled at her. “You’re awake?”
Mu Yao raised her hand that was not injected with an IV drip, as if she wanted to touch Bei Shuo’s face. “Sister-in-law.”
Her voice was as soft as sleep talk.
Bei Shuo held her hand and placed it on her face. She smiled and said, “It’s me. I’ve been accompanying you all night. You’re finally awake. If you were any later, 1 would have fallen asleep here!”
Mu Yao did not seem to listen to her. She looked at her in a daze and felt the tender skin in her palm.
Bei Shuo was already certain that Mu Yao must have been agitated. She couldn’t agitate her before she asked her.
“Are you hungry? Is there anything you want to eat? 1’11 get your Big Brother to send it over, okay?” Mu Yao liked to eat the dishes she made, so Xiaobai and Xiaoling could make them too.
“Sister-in-law.” Mu Yao didn’t hear anything and called out softly again.
“Mm.” Bei Shuo agreed softly and didn’t say anything else. Mu Yao touched her face and looked at her gently.
Mu Yao’s eyes gradually became wet. “Sister-in-law, I’m not dreaming.”
Her words were affirmative.
Bei Shuo stroked her head. “Yes, I’m not dreaming. I’m really in front of you.”
Her smile was as bright as ever.
Mu Yao’s eyes fell.
Bei Shuo took a tissue and wiped her tears. He asked gently, “Did you have a nightmare?”
Mu Yao did not speak.
Bei Shuo knew that she had a strange temper. If she didn’t want to tell her, she wouldn’t be able to get anything out of her.
After a long time, Mu Yao suddenly nodded. “I dreamed that 1 drank a lot of children’s blood. Very, very young children. They kept crying, but 1 couldn’t stop—”
Mu Yao retracted her hand, pulled the blanket, and sobbed.
Bei Shuo was also stunned. This dream was too terrifying.
She patted Mu Yao gently. “Don’t be afraid. It’s just a dream. It won’t become reality. Dreams are the opposite. What you see in the dream is the opposite of reality. It means that our Mu Yao will be as healthy as a child and can help many children.”
Mu Yao had an extremely fragile feeling, like a broken rag doll.
Bei Shuo’s heart ached for her. Actually, Mu Yao was a very kind girl. It was only because she was sick that her temper became strange. Coupled with the complicated family relationship and the fact that she was not close to her parents, she became a little unusual.
She was actually not happy at all. She was a pitiful child.
“Sister-in-law, if 1 die, those children won’t be harmed. I’m a demon, I’m a vampire!” Mu Yao held Bei Shuo’s hand tightly.
Bei Shuo got up and pulled Mu Yao into her arms. She patted her gently and comforted her. “What nonsense are you talking about! There’s no such thing as a good-looking and kind demon or vampire like you! It’s just a dream. Don’t let one’s imagination run wild. Our Mu Yao is a beauty. You’re beautiful and kind-hearted. Everyone loves you. Flowers bloom when they see you, and cars explode when they see you too!”
Bei Shuo couldn’t help but laugh. He helped Mu Yao up and looked at her red eyes. He held her face and wiped her tears..
