The logic of the dream is chaotic, and the picture speeds up and down, but the gray tone never changes.

That day Qiao Mucheng came to the house to look for her and said he wanted to take her out to play.

Then she received a call from her father. On the phone, her father's voice was very weak, with a feeling of suffocation due to shortness of breath, and she couldn't even speak a complete sentence.

She immediately realized that something might have happened to her father, so she begged Qiao Mucheng to take her to find her father.

She still remembers what Qiao Mucheng said at that time: "Wait for me at home, I'll get him back for you."

She believed it, and just waited at home foolishly.

However, the person waiting was not Qiao Mucheng, but the kidnapper.

The scene in the dream changed, and she appeared in a dark and damp basement again.

The triumphant laughter of the kidnappers echoed in my ears.

"Your little lover doesn't want you anymore. He gave you to us, saying that we can enjoy it as we like."

"When we have had enough fun, you will sink to the bottom of the sea with a big rock, and your little lover will continue to live happily with the property left to him by your Jiang family. Are you very angry when you hear this?"

The dim light, harsh laughter, and the smell of sweat from those rough kidnappers mixed into the most terrifying memory in her mind.

"Impossible! You are lying, this is impossible!"

Jiang Luyao woke up from the dream crying, and sat up from the bed reflexively.

The light around me was as dim as in the dream, but it was no longer the light from the inferior incandescent bulb, but the warm light from the orange desk lamp by the bed.

Before she could recover from the horror of the dream, she saw a person sitting beside her bed.

There were still tears on her face, and she didn't want Qiao Mucheng to see her fragile side, so she lowered her head and wiped it with the back of her hand.

Qiao Mucheng looked at her quietly, his eyes were full of distressed expressions, he couldn't hide it, and he didn't want to hide it.

"Did you have a nightmare?" There was rare tenderness in his voice.

Jiang Luyao didn't appreciate it, Qiao Mucheng's face gradually overlapped with the one he saw in the dream just now.

He said he would help her find her father, but it turned out that he was just lying to her, and even killed her father himself.

He sent her to the vicious kidnappers, who almost caused her to be murdered.If Jiang Wanxia hadn't rescued her in time, the consequences would have been disastrous.

And the person who did all these despicable deeds, at this moment, pretended to be merciful and greeted her, it would only make her feel sick.

Not in the mood to play with him any more, Jiang Luyao didn't hide the disgust on his face: "What's none of your business? This is my room, please go out."

Qiao Mucheng didn't choke her with words this time, nor did he get up and leave, but reached out and handed over the photo she was holding before falling asleep.

"Thinking of your dad?" he asked again.

Hearing him mentioning his father, Jiang Luyao felt more hatred in his heart, and blurted out, "You have no right to mention him."

Qiao Mucheng's heart suddenly suffocated, and the hand holding the photo couldn't help but tighten a little.

But his expression quickly returned to normal, and he didn't explain anything.

Now is not the time to explain, and years of misunderstandings cannot be explained in a few words.Even if the truth is revealed now, the crisis between him and Jiang Luyao will not be resolved, but will fall into greater danger.

He himself was fearless, but he couldn't let Jiang Luyao go through that kind of thing again.

Jiang Luyao didn't notice the slight change in his expression, so he reached out and took the photo back from his hand, put it back under the pillow, and said in a cold voice, "What are you still doing here?"

Qiao Mucheng replied with a rare good temper: "Go downstairs for dinner, I've been waiting for you for a long time."

Jiang Luyao lay down directly, turned his back to him, and refused: "I don't have an appetite, I don't want to eat."

Qiao Mucheng got up and walked out, and said to himself, "Someone will bring it to you later."

Jiang Luyao pretended to be sleeping and didn't bother to talk to him.

However, after a while, she heard a sound coming from the door, and when she looked back, it was Aunt Gu who was walking in with dinner.

Although she was in a bad mood, when facing Aunt Gu, she couldn't keep her face darkened, and she just said listlessly: "Aunt Gu, I'm really not hungry, you can take out the food."

Aunt Gu put the food on the table, looked down at her, took out a small notebook with some concern and wrote: "Why are you crying?"

Jiang Luyao shook his head, and replied, "It's nothing, I just had a nightmare."

"What did you dream about?" Aunt Gu wrote again.

Jiang Luyao didn't want to tell the things deep in his heart, so he said perfunctorily, "It's just a terrible dream, but I can't remember the content clearly when I wake up."

Aunt Gu wrote again: "Mr. is very worried about you."

Seeing this sentence, Jiang Luyao frowned, turned his eyes away, and didn't want to answer.

"Although I don't know what misunderstanding there is between you, but I can see that Mr. cares about you very much. I have never seen him care about a person like that." Aunt Gu wrote.

Jiang Luyao sneered, and blurted out, "What about the woman who lived here before?"

After saying this, even she herself was a little surprised.

You obviously don't care at all, why bring this up?
Hearing that she mentioned that woman, Aunt Gu's expression froze obviously, and then she seemed to be trying to cover up something, and she wrote: "That's just a thing in the past, and it's you who will live together in the future. Even if it's not for Mr. You yourself, also take good care of your body, don't be bothered by unnecessary things."

How could the things she cares about be unnecessary things?How is it possible not to be bothered by it?
But she didn't want to take away Aunt Gu's kindness, so she nodded and said, "I see, thank you, Aunt Gu."

Aunt Gu shook her head, looking at her with gentle and loving eyes, reminding her of her father in a trance.

Fearing that she would lose her composure if she continued like this, she lay down on the bed again, turned her back to Aunt Gu and said, "I'll eat dinner by myself in a while, Auntie can go to work first."

Aunt Gu looked at her stubborn back for a long time, sighed, and left the room silently.

However, it didn't take long before footsteps sounded behind him again.

"Aunt Gu, I'm really not hungry now." Jiang Luyao said without looking back.

However, Qiao Mucheng's voice sounded behind him: "You have to eat if you're not hungry, or I won't take care of you if you're sick."

Jiang Luyao turned around, frowned at him, and said with a cold snort, "It's really haunting."

Qiao Mucheng hooked the corner of his mouth, walked over nonchalantly, pulled a chair not far away to the bed, sat down and picked up the rice bowl on the table, and said, "If I don't want to eat, I'll feed you."

Jiang Luyao suddenly remembered the last time he was in Jiang's old house and forced him to feed him.At that time, he was still reluctant in every possible way, but now that he offered to feed her, she didn't mind it.

"Don't eat, I'm afraid you will poison the food." She was still lying on the bed and refused to get up.

"If I really want to poison you to death, I will give you food? It's simple and easy to feed the poison directly into your mouth." Qiao Mucheng joked with a serious face.

Jiang Luyao sneered: "Sure enough, he's still as vicious as ever."

The corner of Qiao Mucheng's mouth twitched, and his tone became tough: "Come here, eat obediently."

"I told you not to eat, are you annoyed?" Jiang Luyao was a little impatient, when did this guy become such a mother-in-law?

"It's okay not to eat," Qiao Mucheng said calmly, "I'll just sit here and watch you sleep, when you wake up, and when to eat."

Jiang Luyao's patience was exhausted, he sat up abruptly, glared at him and said, "What's wrong with you? Why do you have to force me to eat?"

Qiao Mucheng didn't explain to her, but just raised the rice bowl in front of her and asked, "To eat or not?"

Jiang Luyao rolled his eyes, he just wanted to drive this unsightly guy out immediately, but he had no choice but to compromise, "I'll eat by myself, you go out."

Qiao Mucheng didn't seem to understand, he picked up a piece of meat and brought it to her mouth: "Open your mouth."

After staring at him speechlessly for a long while, Jiang Luyao had no choice but to open his mouth and bite the piece of meat with such force that he almost broke the chopsticks, as if she was eating Qiao Mucheng's meat.

"No matter how hungry you are, you don't need to eat with chopsticks." Qiao Mucheng teased her.

"you shut up!"

Qiao Mucheng fed her food bite by bite patiently. From the perspective of other people, they might really think that they are a loving couple.

Jiang Luyao's mood suddenly became complicated. She couldn't figure out Qiao Mucheng's purpose for doing this.Do you feel guilty about what you did?She didn't accept the guilt.

The damage he caused to her cannot be made up for by feeding her a few times.

Halfway through eating, she couldn't help asking, "Qiao Mucheng, I have a question for you."

"ask."

"After you did those things, have you ever regretted it?"

Qiao Mucheng raised his eyebrows, "What did I do?"

Jiang Luyao sneered: "Why are you pretending to be confused? You forced my father to death, took away everything from the Jiang family, and even me. Can you forget these things?"

The expression on Qiao Mucheng's face paused for a moment, and then he suddenly laughed, but there was a bit of helplessness in the smile.

"It turns out that I did all these things."

This unclear sentence made Jiang Luyao lose his mind for a moment, and subconsciously said, "Who else would it be if you didn't do it? At this point, do you still want to pretend to be innocent?"

Qiao Mucheng avoided talking about it: "Don't talk about these things during meals."

Jiang Luyao continued to sneer, "I still want to escape because of a bad conscience? If you still have a conscience."

Qiao Mucheng was silent for a moment, then suddenly asked: "If I said that I didn't do those things, would you believe me?"

Jiang Luyao stared at him for a while, then replied, "I don't believe it."

Qiao Mucheng's hand holding the chopsticks seemed to be stiff for a moment, but when she took a closer look, he was as usual, and he didn't react to this sentence.

"Then eat obediently and don't say those meaningless words." He finally said.

Sure enough, he must be guilty, Jiang Luyao thought.
