Chapter 216: Can’t Escape…
After Jian Yue returned home, she sat in the yard, holding Jiang Zeyuan's hand tightly.
Jiang Zeyuan hugged her with pity.
His eyes fell on the tiny wound on Jian Yue's neck caused by the knife, and his eyes reddened with heartache.
He got up gently and went into the house to get out the alcohol and cotton swabs.
When he returned to Jian Yue again, he carefully dipped a cotton swab in a little alcohol.
"Wife, it may be a little painful, just bear with it."
Jian Yue nodded slightly and said nothing.
In fact, this scar is nothing serious and can be healed by soaking in Lingquan Hot Spring for a dozen minutes.
However, this action is not possible for the time being.
Next, we will still need to cooperate with the public security investigation.
After all, this is a serial killer case.
Jiang Zeyuan's hands trembled slightly as he gently touched Jian Yue's wound. Every movement was filled with heartache and caution.
His eyes never left the wound.
Jian Yue bit her lip and felt warm in her heart seeing Jiang Zeyuan was so worried about her.
After disinfecting the wound, Jiang Zeyuan just hugged her.
Neither of them spoke, they just sat there quietly, and time seemed to stand still.
They sat there for a long, long time, until everything around them became silent.
Until the sky was full of stars and the bright starlight fell on them.
Jiang Zeyuan gently lifted Jian Yue's chin and said softly, "Wife, look up at the beautiful night sky."
Jian Yue raised her head as she was told, looking at the vast starry sky, and her mood seemed to relax a little.
"What people fear most is their own psychological demons. As long as you don't care, nothing can hurt you or make you afraid."
His voice was deep and magnetic, and had a magical power that slowly calmed Jian Yue's heart.
Just at this moment, "Gurgle, gurgle, gurgle~".
One after another, there were bursts of thunder-like sounds.
The quiet atmosphere was shattered in an instant.
Jian Yue came back to her senses instantly, a hint of embarrassment flashed across her face, she looked as if she had been caught cheating.
Then, she took out dumplings from the space and said with a smile, "Honey, let's eat dumplings tonight!"
Jiang Zeyuan was stunned by the amazing change of her expression in just one second.
I stupidly went over to her and wanted to hug her.
But Jian Yue raised her hand and punched him, shouting at the top of her voice, "Don't touch me! You greasy guy! We are both as dirty as mud monkeys! Don't hug me!"
Jiang Zeyuan was hit so hard that he froze in place. He blinked his eyes and smiled helplessly, "Wife, you change too quickly. You were scared like a chicken just a second ago, and now you have the energy to hit me?"
Jian Yue glared at him fiercely, "Humph, if I say you are not allowed to hug me, then you are not allowed to hug me. It stinks so much that it can kill a cow!"
Jiang Zeyuan nodded quickly: "Okay, okay, I won't hug you. Then let's eat dumplings quickly, take a bath and have a good sleep after we're full."
Jian Yue put the dumplings on the table, and the two of them found two relatively clean stools to sit down.
Jiang Zeyuan looked at Jian Yue with eyes full of doting, "You really are a treasure chest. You can always conjure up delicious food."
Jian Yue raised her head proudly, "Of course, I have this just in case of emergency."
As he spoke, he took out another 500ML bottle of Happy Fatty Water.
"Let's drink this tonight to calm down."
Jiang Zeyuan looked at the dark water and asked doubtfully, "Wife, is this soda?"
Jian Yue nodded as she poured the Coke, "Try it!"
Jiang Zeyuan just took a sip of Coke, his eyes instantly widened and a hissing sound came from his mouth.
The strong bubbles burst in his mouth, stimulating his taste buds, and his throat swallowed unconsciously.
"What the hell is this? It exploded in my mouth like a firecracker!" Jiang Zeyuan exclaimed, his expression both surprised and a little funny.
Jian Yue looked at his reaction and couldn't help but burst into laughter, "Honey, this is called Coke, it tastes good because of this stimulating effect!"
Jiang Zeyuan took another sip cautiously.
This time, try to let the Coke stay in your mouth for a while, feeling the unique taste and the impact of the bubbles.
"It's very special, a little sweet, and has an indescribable flavor." Jiang Zeyuan smacked his lips.
The expression on his face gradually changed from initial resistance to some acceptance.
"Drink more and you'll like it!"
Jiang Zeyuan took another big sip, and this time he seemed to have found the feeling, "Hey, you know what, the more I drink, the better it gets!"
After saying that, the two looked at each other and smiled, beginning to enjoy this special moment.
While eating dumplings, Jiang Zeyuan felt much more relaxed.
Looking at Jian Yue eating dumplings in big mouthfuls, he said with a smile, "Eat slowly, no one will snatch it from you."
This is the first time I see my wife eating so voraciously.
Jian Yue's mouth was full, and she said incoherently, "I'm so hungry. I was scared today. I need to eat more to replenish my hunger."
Jiang Zeyuan looked at her, his heart filled with heartache.
After eating the dumplings, the two of them cleaned up briefly and went to take a shower and change clothes.
Lying on the bed, Jiang Zeyuan held Jian Yue's hand tightly, "Go to sleep, my wife, tomorrow is a new day."
Jian Yue rubbed against his arms.
I've been very nervous all day and I'm really tired!
Jiang Zeyuan looked at her peaceful sleeping face, and he really felt that his wife's spirit had returned, and he closed his eyes with peace of mind.
It was late at night and Jian Yue fell into a deep sleep.
However, the nightmare came quietly.
In the dream, it was pitch black all around and I couldn’t see my hand in front of me.
Suddenly, countless skeletons emerged from the darkness, staring at her with their empty eye sockets.
Jian Yue turned around in horror and tried to escape, but found that her legs seemed to be dragged down by lead blocks and she could not take a step.
The skeletons slowly approached her, and the "crunching" sound of bones rubbing against each other was particularly harsh in the silence.
Jian Yue struggled desperately and called for help, but her voice seemed to be swallowed by the darkness and there was no response.
Fear overwhelmed her like a tide.
She found it difficult to breathe and her heart felt like it was about to jump out of her throat.
At this moment, Jian Yue suddenly woke up from her dream.
"Ah!" She screamed loudly, her body shaking uncontrollably, her clothes soaked with cold sweat.
Jiang Zeyuan also woke up immediately.
He quickly turned on the light bulb, hugged Jian Yue tightly in his arms, and comforted her softly: "Wife, don't be afraid, don't be afraid, I'm here."
Jian Yue was breathing heavily, her eyes filled with fear and helplessness.
She grabbed Jiang Zeyuan's arm tightly, her nails almost digging into his flesh, "Hubby, skeletons, skeletons everywhere, I can't escape, I can't escape..."
Jiang Zeyuan patted her back gently, "It's okay, it's just a nightmare. I'm here and won't let anything hurt you."
With Jiang Zeyuan's comfort, Jian Yue's emotions gradually stabilized, but her body was still shaking slightly.
The fear brought by that nightmare was deeply engraved in her heart.
I tossed and turned until dawn finally when I fell asleep.
