Can't Take My Eyes Off You (WN)
chapter-2157

In any case, anyone who saw Jiang Yao would be reminded of that sentence.

"Don't worry. I know what's important."

Jiang Yao reflected on Qian Yunen, who had been waiting for her to leave, and decided that even if the army base were cut off from water, electricity, and food, she would not leave.

Jiang Yao returned to her bedroom after lunch to nap. She had been sleeping well since she became pregnant, but she had a lot of dreams in the afternoon.

Jiang Yao closed her eyes. Most likely because she was shocked by Qian Yunen's incident, a red color seemed to sweep her mind into another world. It was as if it had been dyed red by blood. She could almost smell the stench of blood.

She was suspended in the air. Her feet were red, as was the top of her head, and everything within her reach was red.

A thin youth stood before her in the dream, holding a dagger and gesturing at her abdomen. She wanted to run to protect the baby, so she tried her hardest to move. Her feet appeared to be immobilized by something, and she could not move.

She could not see the face of the person who wanted to kill her child, but she knew it had to be someone with a ferocious face.

Jiang Yao's body began to float as soon as the knife was raised. She fell suddenly and rapidly into the bottomless abyss. She abruptly awoke with a cry.

Opening her eyes, she raised her hand and touched her forehead. Only then did Jiang Yao notice her forehead was drenched in a cold sweat.

Jiang Yao's scream terrified Mr. and Mrs. Jiang. They hurriedly opened the door and entered Jiang Yao's room. They did not even knock.

"What's wrong?

"What's wrong?" Mrs. Jiang was worried when she saw Jiang Yao's pale face. "Are you sick? Why is your face so red, but your skin feels so cold? "

"Nothing. I just had a nightmare." Jiang Yao shook her head. "What time is it?"

"It's past four o'clock," Mr. Jiang replied.

Jiang Yao was surprised. She thought she had only slept for a short while. How could it have been more than two hours?

"Did Xingzhi call me when I was asleep?" Jiang Yao asked. "I haven't been able to contact him for a few days."

"No." Mr. Jiang shook his head. "A lawyer called you. He said he found out that the person who helped Li Hong seemed to have some background. He said that when he went to Li Hong's house to investigate, he met a neighbor who was a teacher. The teacher said he saw two lanky men visiting his neighbor. They were tall and strong, and their skin was slightly dark. They spoke the dialect of an ethnic minority in Lanning. He had taught in the Lanning branch for half a year, so he knew a few local dialects."

"Lanning?"

Jiang Yao said, "Xingzhi is in Lanning now! How could the person who helped Li Hong be one of Lanning's people?" She thought it was Qian Yunen.

"I haven't finished speaking."

Mr. Jiang patted Jiang Yao's back to tell her not to worry. "The teacher's neighbor heard the two people say a few words in a dialect. They were to return to Lanning to meet the young master after they finished their business there. He also said that they were ready to sacrifice themselves."

"Young Master?"

Jiang Yao felt that she had received too much information that day. Her mind was in a daze, and her reaction was slower than usual.

A young master?

Young master?

She thought she was reading a wuxia novel.
