C1922 The Stress Delay
The doctor was scared silly by the couple's one word and broke out in cold sweat.
Under Huo Niannian and Gu Tingshen's gaze, the doctor bit the bullet and said, "According to the data, there is no hidden danger in Miss's body. The fever this time should be... No, it should be because the stress was delayed."
Huo Niannian was puzzled, "What is the delay in stress?" She had never heard of it before. Could it be a serious illness?
Before the doctor could open his mouth, Huo Niannian was already shocked by herself.
"Simply put, the delay in stress is like the slow reaction of the body. Miss was drowned yesterday and the side effects were delayed until now before acting up. Actually, this is also considered a type of body protection mechanism."
After hearing this, Huo Niannian's heart that was hanging by a thread dropped a little.
As long as it is not a serious illness... Huo Niannian let out a sigh of relief and then thought of Nian Ci's various performance today. Her heart ached. So it was not that Nian Ci did not leave behind a shadow, but that the stress was delayed...
Then what should NianCi do next? Was she especially afraid now?
Huo Niannian's eyes turned red again.
The next moment, she was pulled into a warm embrace. Gu Tingshen's chilly aura enveloped her, but it did not calm her emotions as usual.
Huo Niannian wrapped her arms around Gu Tingshen's waist and said with a hoarse voice, "Gu Tingshen..." Why did she not let her bear all of this? Why did she have to let her kindness suffer? Her kindness was not even three years old, and she was still so young...
Gu Tingshen patted her back lightly and comforted her softly, "Don't be afraid. Nianci will be fine."
He raised his head, and the tenderness on his face was instantly replaced by frost. He looked at the doctor and said faintly, "No matter what method you use, you must make NianCi safe and sound."
His gaze was too cold, like ice that would not melt for ten thousand years.
The doctor could not help but shiver and quickly agreed.
"We will definitely do our best."
...
The night had disguised itself as this city. It was decorated as peaceful and was covered in filth. All the filth was hidden beneath the surface's calmness.
Zhou Tong woke up from her nightmare once again. Her entire body was drenched in cold sweat. She looked like a drowning person who had just been fished out of the water.
Zhou Tong gasped for breath and looked forward in a daze.
It was too scary...
Why did I dream of my father dying in front of me?
Zhou Tong hugged her legs with both hands and curled herself into a ball.
Nian Ci was not dead. Gu Tingshen would definitely investigate this matter to the end. Before long, he would discover the problem and she would not be able to escape.
A line of tears rolled down from the corner of Zhou Tong's eyes. How did things turn out like this? She hadn't rescued her father yet, and she hadn't taken revenge on Gu Tingshen yet. There were still many things that she hadn't done yet.
It was all because of her soft heart that she had harmed herself.
If it was the first time, she would definitely not have jumped down to save someone. She would have watched Nian Ci drown and die by the pond with her own eyes. She would then watch Gu Tingshen and Huo Niannian in despair and pain.
The tears became more and more fierce. Zhou Tong could feel that the last bit of softness in her heart had gradually decayed and turned into a foul smell.
She knew that from the moment she regretted saving Nian Ci, she would be doomed forever...
"Bang, bang, bang.
A wave of rapid knocks sounded out from the silent room.1
Zhou Tong was shocked and looked at the door with fear in her eyes.
What's going on? Why was there someone knocking on the door at such a late hour?
Who was it? Was it Gu Tingshen?
