Chapter 812 - Not Afraid of Going Crazy, but Afraid of Being Awake (2/2)

Xia Ruoxin raised her hand that was wrapped like a pig trotter, placed it at her mouth, and bit the bandage.

“I just wanted to know how human meat tastes like.”

Gao Yi raised his hand and placed it on her forehead.

“Trust me, human meat is awful. It’s sour and disgusting.”

“Why? Did you eat it before?” Xia Ruoxin looked down slightly and was in a daze as if she could not feel pain. Her colorless lips were curled upwards in a way that no one could describe.

It was an indescribable coldness.

“I guessed it.” Gao Yi laughed before placing her hands on her knees. “If you’re hurting, I’ll give you my hand for you to bite. Don’t bite yourself anymore. There’s almost no complete piece of skin and meat on your body anymore.”

Xia Ruoxin turned away and landed her gaze on a cactus by the window. It was the easiest to grow, it did not die easily, and it pricked people the most.

She raised her head, and at that moment, the light in front blinded her until she could not open her eyes.

From this day on, Xia Ruoxin changed. She started to eat; even though at the start, she would vomit out the food she ate involuntarily as she had not eaten in a long time. However, after puking, she would eat again until she was not hungry and until she was too full.

Slowly, her stomach started to adjust to food; and she ate more and more, day by day. Just that her face was still very pale, but it was much better than her ghastly look before.

Gao Yi walked over, sat beside her, and passed her a blanket to put on her shoulders.

“Slowly recuperate, don’t rush.”

“Okay.” Xia Ruoxin agreed, but her smile was insincere.

Gao Yi wanted to say something else, but nothing came out of his mouth. He only placed his hand on Xia Ruoxin’s shoulders and patted it like he was comforting and accompanying her.

…

The door to the ward opened, and the woman inside had her limbs tied up.

The woman opened her soulless eyes and would wriggle her body from time to time. She made all sorts of weird noises with her throat; and when one heard it, it was strangely uncomfortable.

“Hehe…” She opened her mouth and yelled the toneless noises; no one knew what she was saying. This was especially so when she saw Xia Ruoxin as her movements became even more intense.

Xia Ruoxin walked over to her, and suddenly, she pulled a mesmerizing smile.

“Ms. Bai, after being crazy for so long, do you forget that—sometimes—you’re a normal person?”

The woman with her limbs tied up yelled something weird again.

Xia Ruoxin was still smiling; her smile was light and cold. She saw that the woman’s limbs had scars from the rope burns; it was a startling state.

How did Bai Luoyin, who loved beauty like her life, end up like this? A mental patient or a maniac?

“Actually, I do wish that you had really gone crazy. However, the scariest thing is when the person is crazy, but their hearts are clear.”

Xia Ruoxin found a place for her to sit down. Suddenly, she felt cold so she hugged her arms while Bai Luoyin was still hollering like a lunatic at the side.
