Chapter 740 - Because You’re Too Ugly (1/2)

He kept talking continuously and said that it was his fault, he was in the wrong… he regretted a lot of things… but Rainy did not understand what he was saying. She did not know a lot of things in the past. She clenched Chu Lui’s finger tightly and stepped on Chu Lui’s thighs.

“Daddy, Rainy missed Mommy.”

That word ‘Daddy’ almost made Chu Lui’s eyes sparkle.

“I miss your Mommy, too.” He hugged his daughter tightly. The sky outside was unusually dark; how many people could have a good night’s sleep? He had already forgotten how long it had been since he slept comfortably at night.

Four years ago when she was around… or four years later when she was around.

The moonlight came into the room from the window, and Chu Lui’s gaze followed it. In the end, he only had a never-ending distance in his gaze.

…

It had been two months. Xia Ruoxin opened her eyes and placed her hands in front. When the door was closed, she could not see her fingers; but when it opened slightly, she could still see a ray of light.

There were rumblings below their feet which showed that the boat was still floating on the ocean. They did not know how long they had to travel. One month? Two months? A year? Or perhaps their whole life. They would be stuck on the ocean and floating.

When Ruoxin woke up again, she was still in a daze; it was as if she was playing with Rainy just a while ago. However, once she opened her eyes, everything blurred in front of her; and there were all sorts of smells in the air and on herself. It was a disturbing smell that made her understand that that was just a dream… and this was reality.

At first, she still knew how long she had spent here. One day, two days, seven days, half a month… one month. However, when the time increased, she felt powerless and as if something in her brain had gone short-circuit.

There were even times where she could not even remember her own name and just lived day by day like the other women. They only had their abilities to breathe, eat, and defecate.

She sat up and hugged her knees tightly.

“What’s wrong? You can’t sleep?” Shen Wei also sat up and his voice was hoarse until she was uncomfortable.

“Mm. I sleep all day, and I don’t even know when it’s day or night anymore.”

“Is there still day and night around here?” Shen Wei laughed, but she did not know if she was laughing at what Xia Ruoxin said or herself. She extended her fingers and placed it in front of her. No matter where she was, she could not even see her fingers. “I can just smell and know where the toilet is. Just that…” She lowered her head and tugged at her clothes… she looked really disgusting. “I’m really scared.”

“Huh? Scared? What’s there to be scared of?” This was the first time Xia Ruoxin heard Shen Wei saying the word ‘scared’.

“Yeah, scared. How can you not be?” Shen Wei gently sighed, but the smell in her nose was mixed with God-knows-what-other smells. Even though it had been two months, and she had gotten used to it, she still could not stand the smell.

“What are you scared of?” Xia Ruoxin leaned against the rack behind her. The continuously tense life was really tiring for her.

“What am I scared of?” Shen Wei repeated what she said.
