The chicken soup was mixed with a strange and rich aroma, making it hard to stop after a sip.
Shen Jiao’s appetite was greatly increased after drinking a bowl of it, and she couldn’t help but drink a few more bowls.
After drinking, Shen Jiao went back to the bedroom to rest.
However, she didn’t notice that the moment she turned around, Madam Zhao stared at her back, and a sinister glint flashed across her eyes.
That night, Shen Jiao had another nightmare.
And she could clearly feel that this time, her nightmare was more real than ever.
She closed her eyes and rolled on the bed. Even her forehead was drenched in a cold sweat. It was as if a beast was hiding in the dark, fighting for her sanity.
After some time, Shen Jiao suddenly opened her eyes.
She got up from the bed and staggered towards the kitchen.
Everything around her was blurry and unreal. The floor felt like soft and weightless cotton.
Thirsty.
This was the only word in Shen Jiao’s mind. She was thirsty and needed water.
After an unknown amount of time, Shen Jiao finally reached the kitchen.
Just as she picked up the teapot on the counter and was about to pour its contents into her mouth, a hand reached out from behind her and stopped her.
“Jiaojiao, why aren’t you sleeping? What are you doing here?”
Luo Yu frowned and stared at Shen Jiao in front of him.
He had a feeling that there was something wrong with the woman in front of him.
Shen Jiao’s face was covered in a cold sweat and her face was pale. Most importantly, her eyes were unfocused. It was like she was sleepwalking, but not sleepwalking. She was like a zombie.
Luo Yu’s heart sank. He regretted working overtime today, causing him to come back so late.
Shen Jiao had been in a bad state recently. He should have known that something would happen. How could he ignore it?
“Water, I want to drink water…” Shen Jiao stood rooted to the ground, repeating these words numbly.
“The water in here is cold, you can’t drink it.” Luo Yu snatched the teapot from her hands and pulled her away. “Let’s go, I’ll take you to the hospital.”
Who knew that once the teapot was snatched, Shen Jiao’s expression immediately turned crazy. “I want to drink water, I said I want to drink water. Give the teapot back to me, give it back to me!”
She struggled like a madwoman. She didn’t know where she got so much strength, and she almost threw Luo Yu against the wall.
Luo Yu was shocked. He quickly hugged Shen Jiao, but it did not work. Shen Jiao broke free from his shackles like a madwoman and ran straight for the teapot.
Luo Yu reacted quickly and kicked the teapot over.
The teapot fell to the ground. The porcelain was broken into four or five pieces, and the water inside flowed all over the ground.
Looking at this scene, Shen Jiao seemed to have been immobilized. She stood there in a daze and did not move anymore.
“Jiaojiao, it’s okay.” Luo Yu observed her and carefully approached her, trying to pull her into his arms. “Be good, be good. Follow me to the hospital.”

He reached out to hold Shen Jiao’s hand.
Shen Jiao went berserk at this moment. She picked up the fruit knife on the table and stabbed it into Luo Yu’s chest.
“If you don’t let me drink water, I’ll kill you!”
Shen Jiao had almost lost her rationality and consciousness. Luo Yu was no longer Luo Yu in her eyes, but a dark shadow whose face couldn’t be seen clearly.
She was obviously dying of thirst, but he didn’t let her drink water.. Then she wouldn’t let him go either!
