Chapter 620 - This Night (2/2)

She took out the syringe and added something into it routinely before jabbing it on Gao Yi's arms.

Then, she slowly kept the items on the table and placed them back in the drawer. After all that was done, she yawned and lay beside Gao Yi, turning the bed light off in her path. Not long after, the two people's breathing started to become in unison.

Xia Ruoxin could not believe whatever she had seen until now. If she had not seen it with her own eyes, she would not have believed that Bai Luoyin administered drugs on Gao Yi.

That was drugs. Drugs.

Did Bai Luoyin not love Gao Yi? Did she not love him until she could throw her own life away? How could she cause Gao Yi to have a drug addiction? This would ruin him, would take his life. It was a torment he could never walk out of his whole life.

Madam Mei Fu had said that Gao Yi had been addicted to drugs for a month. If so, it would mean that Bai Luoyin started administering drugs since their wedding day.

However, Gao Yi was a doctor; how could he not know that he had a drug addiction?

At this moment, she was frazzled; and her thoughts were in a mess. She really wanted to rush up front and shake the woman awake and question her intention of administering drugs on Gao Yi.

However, in the end, she held it back.

She bit the back of her hand and contained all the noise.

Until the next day, only when the Bai family went for their church service—and there was no one in the household once again—did the door to the fireplace open. Xia Ruoxin climbed out from inside. Her eyes were swollen, face pale; and it seemed as though all her energy had been sucked away from her body. Even a simple lift of her arm would be hard on her at this moment.

She did not leave when they were asleep as she did not dare to. She could not afford to take the risk as she heard that Bai Luoyin was a light sleeper, and if she was caught, the consequences would have been unimaginable.

She used all her effort to stand up and run to the cupboard. She wanted to open the locked drawer, but it would not budge, and the key was with Bai Luoyin.

She let go and carefully walked while holding the wall. After making sure there was no one outside, she crawled out from the hole in the wall. Her whole head was gray and dirty with dust and dirt, and even her hair seemed to be stuck together. She ran all the way home, and after opening and closing the door, she leaned against it and slid down to the floor.

She breathed heavily and cried loudly.

No one knew how she had spent that night. No one knew what that night meant for her. No one knew what exactly happened that night.

She stood up and walked to the toilet. Her reflection in the mirror was pale like a sheet of paper; her eyes were swollen, and her hair was tangled in a mess.

After turning on the tap, she splashed water on her face, in hopes of calming herself down. That was right, she needed to be calm. She must be calm. She extended her hand and turned on the showerhead. She stood under it and opened her eyes. The whole world seemed to be raining in front of her, and yet she was stuck in the rain, unable to walk out.

She walked into the bedroom and unintentionally lay on her bed. She spent that night in dreams; in some, Bai Luoyin became a demon, and in others, Gao Yi became increasingly skinny and became a bag of bones in the end. She had also dreamt that Bai Luoyin held a knife and stabbed her straight in her heart; that scene was bloody and excruciating.

Suddenly, Xia Ruoxin opened her eyes and breathed intensely with her chest going up and down. The new clothes on her body were drenched once again.

She opened her closet again and changed into a new set of clothes. She opened the door and wanted to fetch Rainy back, but on second thought, it was better to leave her at Madam Mei Fu's.
