C262 You're Delusional
The dew on the mountain was heavy, and their clothes were damp. If they did not quickly take a hot shower and change into dry clothes, they would easily catch a cold. Ling Yao was worried about her body.
"Okay, tell me in time. " Hai Xiaomin did not force it.
After washing up in the room, Hai Xiaomin ate the breakfast that the maid brought over. For some reason, Hai Xiaomin felt a little uneasy. It seemed that Ling Yao had been gone for some time. Something had happened to Du Qing, so why did he not reply?
She threw away her half-eaten breakfast and got up. She asked the maid, "Where is Du Qing now?"
When Hai Xiaomin rushed to Du Qing's room, there were a few people waiting outside the door. The door was closed, but Ling Yao was not there.
"What happened?" She walked over and asked.
Those people who were talking about her earlier shivered when they saw her. They all knew that she was brought into the manor by Ling Yao. Even though they didn't know that she was the real Madam Ling, they didn't dare to neglect her. It was just that when Hai Xiaomin asked them questions, everyone looked at each other, as if they wanted to say something but stopped themselves.
The doubt in Hai Xiaomin's heart became heavier. Forget it, they wouldn't say anything. She would go in and take a look herself!
When they saw Hai Xiaomin reach out to open the door, those people stopped her in a panic. "Mr. Ling told us that this door is not allowed to be entered casually!"
"What do you mean?" Hai Xiaomin's delicate eyebrows were twisted together. What happened to Du Qing?
Finally, someone was willing to take the lead and explain. "The teacher who entered the manor with you earlier seems to have some problems with his body. Mr. Ling is inside to diagnose and treat him. "
"Is Mr. Ling inside?" Hai Xiaomin stared at the tightly shut door.
"Yes. "
"Sorry, I want to go in and take a look. . . " Hai Xiaomin said and was about to forcefully open the door. Those people were busy and wanted to stop her. At this moment, the door was opened from the inside, revealing Ling Yao's cold and handsome face.
"Let her in. " He said.
There was no smile on Ling Yao's face. Hai Xiaomin roughly knew the seriousness of the matter. She leaned sideways and entered through the crack in the door. The door behind her was closed by Ling Yao.
The light in the room was very dark. Her eyes had not adapted to the brightness and suddenly she tripped. Ling Yao quickly grabbed her waist and saved her from the misfortune of being intimate with the carpet.
"Be careful. Are you alright?"
"I'm fine. " Hai Xiaomin shook her head with lingering fear and steadied herself. Only then did she gradually see the situation in the room - the curtains were tightly drawn and the seats were scattered all over the floor. The scene was shocking, as if she was silently telling people that something bad had happened.
Hai Xiaomin did not see Du Qing at first glance. Suppressing the ominous premonition in her heart, she whispered to Ling Yao and asked, "What's the situation?"
Ling Yao put one hand into the pocket of his pants diagonally. Behind Hai Xiaomin, his chin pointed towards the bed and said in a low voice, "You see. "
Hai Xiaomin followed the direction he pointed and saw that the bedding on the bed was in a mess. There seemed to be something between the bed feet and the wall. When she saw that it was a curled up person, her pupils suddenly shrank.
That's right, it was Du Qing. It was just that his current condition was somewhat unusual.
He curled up in the darkness and his body kept trembling. Hai Xiaomin clearly saw that he was tied with a rope.
She looked at Ling Yao in shock. Even if he did not make a sound, he could still understand the confusion in her eyes. His cold eyes fell on the foot of the bed and said in a clear voice, "He tied the rope. "
"He is. . . " Hai Xiaomin could not bear to look at Du Qing at this time. She had seen similar reactions on the television and had vaguely guessed the answer in her heart.
Ling Yao said, "The drug addiction has acted up. He was afraid of hurting others and hurting himself, so he tied himself up. "
It was the drug again!
Hai Xiaomin suddenly thought of something and did not understand. "But there are a few people like me who get addicted the first time. It is reported on TV that ordinary people need to take multiple doses before they get addicted. "
Ling Yao looked at her and calmly explained, "New drugs get addicted faster than other drugs, not to mention. . . " He paused and looked at Du Qing. His words were shocking, "Who told you that he only took it once?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Du Qing's body trembled for a moment. Although he did not raise his head, he clearly heard their conversation.2
Hai Xiaomin pondered over Ling Yao's words and understood. Maybe Du Qing lied to her, or maybe after that day's encounter on the street, he could not help but touch the poison again. All in all, he must have taken drugs more than once and was completely addicted.
"What do we do now?" Hai Xiaomin asked. She knew that the LY had developed a serum that could be used to stop drugs, but for the current situation, there was a need to hide it.
"Don't worry about him. "
Although she expected Ling Yao to refuse to expose the serum, Hai Xiaomin was still shocked when she heard him say it coldly without hesitation.
Ling Yao seemed to be very cold to everyone except her.
He looked at the man curled up in the shadows. He said coldly, "He knows what to do. "
This sentence had a deeper meaning, and Du Qing could understand it. So he squeezed his fingers into his flesh. Hai Xiaomin did not understand at that time, but after the matter, she gradually understood.
Ling Yao sent someone to change shifts and guarded Du Qing twenty-four hours a day to ensure that he could successfully endure the drug addiction outbreak.
Hai Xiaomin saw Du Qing again on the morning of the third day. When she and Ling Yao drank afternoon tea on the lawn, Du Qing casually threw his jacket on his shoulder and walked over. Without saying anything, he sat down on the empty seat.
It had only been a day. Du Qing's body seemed to have been hollowed out. His lips were dry and cracked, his face was concave, and his eyes were deep with a faint greenish black color. His messy hair was messy. He had probably not washed himself for two or three days, and he looked extremely haggard.
"Congratulations, you are still alive. " Seeing him, Ling Yao did not have any extra expression. He took a sip of tea.
"My ribs were broken by you guys, and then I got into a car accident and didn't die. Do you think a small drug could take my life?" Du Qing grinned evilly. The maid poured him a cup of tea and he drank it all in one gulp. The maid had no choice but to pour him another cup.
"What do you plan to do next?" Hai Xiaomin looked at his current appearance. It was simply tragic!
Du Qing turned his head and smiled at her. "You are worried about me?"
Ling Yao's sharp eyes looked over and showed a cold look of dissatisfaction. Before he could react, Hai Xiaomin had already smiled indifferently and retorted. "I saw an injured little animal on the mountain yesterday. I don't know how it is now. "
Du Qing's smile froze. He silently understood the meaning of Hai Xiaomin's words. She wanted to say that her greetings to him were only out of humanity, just like a little animal. Would she also give him some attention?
"It seems like I was thinking too highly of myself. " Du Qing smiled and did not feel embarrassed. He laid on the table with his elbows and looked around. "I don't care. Your manor is not bad. Can you let me stay for a while longer?"
