This world has no color, no sunshine, only endless darkness and dense fog.
She was shrouded in the center of the world by thick fog, and her surroundings were empty and desolate.
Her heart felt like something was suppressing her and she couldn't breathe. She desperately wanted to escape from this strange world.
However, before she had time to act, the thick fog suddenly formed into a monster and rushed towards her with its mouth as big as a washbasin.
At this moment, death was only one step away from her.
Xu Youning broke out in a cold sweat, woke up from his dream with a breath of cold air, and looked at everything around him in panic.
Fortunately, she was in the Kang family mansion, and everything just happened was just a dream.
Xu Youning touched his forehead, which was covered with a thin layer of sweat and felt moist and cool, as if it was a confirmation of the dream just now.
"Aunt Youning," Mu Mu's small, worried voice came slowly, "Are you awake?"
Xu Youning turned his head following the sound and saw little Mumu standing beside the bed.
The little guy's elegant brows were almost furrowed into an "eight" shape, and his bright and lovely eyes were filled with worry, making him look cute but heart-wrenching.
Xu Youning's heart softened, and he wanted to reach out and touch Mumu's head to comfort him like before.
However, she was very uncomfortable.
Her head was like a big hammer, heavy and cumbersome, and she felt a little powerless. Even the simplest movements were a big challenge for her.
Xu Youning had no choice but to give up hugging the little guy, pursed his lips, and nodded: "Well, I'm awake."
Mu Mu did not become happy, and her brows still maintained the shape of the character "eight": "Daddy just told me that it will be fine when you wake up. However, you still look very uncomfortable. Aunt Youning, I'm looking for you
Can the doctor come and take a look at you?"
"..."
Xu Youning said that he was not warmed, which is definitely a lie.
She stretched out her hand and motioned for Mumu to come over and said, "Daddy didn't lie to you. I'm fine now, but I'm just a little tired."
"Then can you hurry up and stop being so tired?" Mu Mu climbed onto the bed and hugged Xu Youning tightly, "I don't want to see you like this, I want you to play games with me."
"Don't worry." Xu Youning tried his best to smile, "I will get better soon."
Mu Mu nodded, buried her face in Xu Youning's arms, and let out a muffled "hmm". Then there was no movement or sound.
Xu Youning knew this little guy very well. He was either crying or crying secretly.
She stretched out her hand and wanted to hug Mumu, so that the little one could at least feel that she was really awake.
However, she was still somewhat powerless.
For the first time, Xu Youning realized deeply that the disease was devouring her body and she was slowly losing her ability.
Maybe it won't take long for her to turn back into the ordinary Xu Youning, even weaker than an ordinary Muggle.
This feeling is really bad.
After a while, Mu Mu adjusted her emotions, left Xu Youning's arms as if nothing had happened, and looked at Xu Youning.
After watching for a while, Mu Mu seemed to suddenly realize that something was wrong. She pressed Xu Youning down and lay down. Her voice was clearly milky, but her tone was like a little adult: "Well, just lie down and rest! If you want anything, tell me
I, I can help you get it!"
Xu Youning couldn't help but smile and nodded: "Okay."
"There's one more thing I need to tell you -" Mu Mu's childish face was full of seriousness that didn't match his age, "Daddy is so powerful, he will definitely be able to hire a very powerful doctor for you. You must
It will get better soon, so don’t worry!”
"Yeah." Xu Youning couldn't help but smile, "I'm not worried, but I want to drink some water."
There was warm water on the coffee table nearby, as well as Xu Youning's usual water cup. Mumu ran over, poured a glass of warm water, inserted a straw into it, and carefully handed it to Xu Youning's lips.
Xu Youning took two sips, and the dryness in his mouth was relieved a lot, and he felt a little more energetic.
She touched Mumu's head: "Thank you."
"You're welcome, I promised daddy to take care of you!" After a pause, Mu Mu's eyes suddenly became confused and she blinked, "But, Aunt Youning, why are you feeling uncomfortable?"
Xu Youning thought for a while and found the most reassuring excuse: "I just have a cold. Just like you usually catch a cold accidentally and sneeze, you will get better soon."
"You are so pitiful." Mu Mu caressed Xu Youning's face and handed the water glass to her lips, "If you have a cold, drink more water to get better. This is what the nurse aunt said - you have to listen to the nurse
Auntie’s words!”
In order to reassure the little guy, Xu Youning drank a few more sips of water cooperatively.
In fact, she didn't know when she would get better.
Or maybe this is the beginning of her body's decline, and she... will never get better again.
She had experienced dizziness and even fainting before, but this time, it seemed to be more serious than every time before.
The worst thing is that for a few seconds just now, she seemed to be blind and couldn't see anything.
The doctor had long said that she might lose her vision, but she was used to being able to see everything in the world as long as she opened her eyes, and she had been holding on to a sense of luck - the doctor said maybe, but maybe not!
However, the blindness came faster and more suddenly than she imagined, and she didn't even have time to make any preparations.
Once she loses her sight, there will be no point in her staying with Kang Ruicheng.
By then, not only will she be unable to collect evidence of Kang Ruicheng's crime, but she will also gradually be unable to hide the fact that the child is still alive.
Both she and the child will face huge dangers.
However, things have reached this point, and Kang Ruicheng cannot give her a chance to escape.
Even if Kang Ruicheng made some omissions and allowed her to find an opportunity, her current physical condition would not be able to support her successful escape.
Her only choice was to seize the time to collect evidence of Kangruicheng's crimes and send them to Musijue so that he could know her true purpose of returning to Kangruicheng.
If Mu Sijue believed her, he would come back to save her.
Looking at it this way, she really doesn't have much time, not to mention she has another concern - Mu Mu.
Xu Youning looked at the little guy and patted the place next to him: "Mumu, lie down, I want to hug you."
"Well, no problem!"
Mu Mu lay down cooperatively, crawled into Xu Youning's arms like a small insect, and hugged Xu Youning tightly with a smile.
Xu Youning could finally touch the little guy intimately. He touched Mumu's head and said sorry to him from the bottom of his heart.
From the moment Kang Ruicheng decided to kill her grandmother and force her to come back, she lost the possibility of growing up with Mu Mu.
Even if Mu Mu would hate her in the future, she wouldn't care.
If Kang Ruicheng is not dealt with, not only her, but also Lu Boyan and Su Jianan will not have a peaceful life.
"Aunt Youning," Mu Mu suddenly thought of something, raised her head suddenly, and looked at Xu Youning innocently, "When daddy left just now, he said he wanted you to have a good rest."
"Hmm." Xu Youning nodded, "So?"
"So let's sleep during the competition!" Mu Mu closed her eyes and continued, "Whoever falls asleep first will win. Close your eyes quickly!"
Xu Youning didn't know how much time she had left to play games with Mumu, so she happily cooperated with him and closed her eyes to compete with him.
"OK, the game begins!"
Mumu closed her eyes and began to try to fall asleep.
The little guy forgot one thing - he originally wanted to coax Xu Youning to sleep, but accidentally fell into the trap. In the end, Xu Youning did not fall asleep, but he fell into a deep sleep.
He was leaning half against Xu Youning, with one hand covering his eyes, looking very serious.
Xu Youning had gradually regained his strength. Looking at Mu Mu's appearance, he couldn't help but smile. He sat up and pulled the quilt for Mu Mu, then left the room quietly and went downstairs.
Because of Xu Youning's fainting, the entire Kang family was filled with tension, and the air flowing through the place seemed to be frozen, becoming stiff and dull.
Seeing Xu Youning coming downstairs, Dongzi hurriedly greeted her and looked at her cautiously: "Ms. Xu, are you still feeling unwell? Do you need me to call the doctor to come over and take a look at you?"
"I'm fine." Xu Youning's expression was very calm, and his tone returned to his usual calm tone, "Where did Brother Cheng go?"
"Brother Cheng went out for something." Dongzi hesitated for a moment, then said, "Miss Xu, just now, Brother Cheng was very worried about you."
Xu Youning said "hmm" without saying anything else. He just found a seat and sat down, waiting for Kang Ruicheng to come back.
If she guessed correctly, Kang Ruicheng should have a lot to ask her.
There were some questions that she couldn't escape. She could only answer Kang Ruicheng, persuade Kang Ruicheng, and try her best to give herself and her children a chance to live.
Dongzi didn't dare to be negligent and called Kang Ruicheng to tell him that Xu Youning had woken up.
Not long after, Kang Ruicheng came back from outside in a hurry and saw Xu Youning sitting in the living room. He strode over and squatted in front of her: "Aning, how do you feel?"
"I'm much better." Xu Youning stood up and looked at Kang Ruicheng, "Sit down and let's talk."
Kang Ruicheng's eyes always stayed on Xu Youning's face. It took him twice as long as before to slowly sit down and said, "Aning, I'm not in a hurry. You can take a rest."
Both he and Xu Youning knew very well what questions he needed Xu Youning to answer, but Xu Youning was like this, and he couldn't ask Xu Youning for an answer.
Xu Youning changed to a more casual posture and smiled: "Don't worry, I'm fine. Even if you are not in a hurry, but I am, I don't want there to be any misunderstanding between us."
"Between us" - if you listen carefully, it is not difficult to hear that there is a secret intimacy in this sentence.
Kang Ruicheng smiled and his posture became very relaxed: "In that case, Aning, please answer me a few questions."
