The Big Boss & His Dainty Wife-Chapter 585 - Someone Held Her_1
Chapter 585: Chapter 585 Someone Held Her_1
The guard watching over her came in to check on her and surprisingly leniently said, “You’re not feeling well, just get a good rest today, no need to move around.”
Qiao Ning nodded slightly, lay back down, and continued her idle daze.
Her body felt a bit uncomfortable and off, but she didn’t pay any attention to it.
Her mind had long been beyond such matters because she had already lost her spirit…
Just like that, Qiao Ning lay in bed all day, dozing fitfully, waking and sleeping.
The day passed quickly, and the night came again.
Qiao Ning mechanically ate something and then continued to lay on the bed, lost in a daze.
She thought that having slept so much during the day, she would not be able to sleep at night…
Yet unexpectedly, she soon fell straight into a deep sleep.
Perhaps out of sheer loneliness, she craved warmth.
So she dreamt yet again, dreamed that someone held her body, his embrace was scorching, warm.
Qiao Ning unknowingly closed in on him, curled up in his arms, wanting to absorb more of the warmth.
It might have been her imagination, but she felt like she was being held even more firmly.
Such an embrace made Qiao Ning want to cry…
A tear slid inexplicably from the corner of her eye.
Under such a warm embrace, Qiao Ning’s consciousness once again plunged into the darkness.
But that warmth made her feel a sting of attachment and greed.
Even when waking the next morning, she seemed able to still feel the lingering warmth…
But she knew, it was all but a fantasy.
Locked in this place, no one could come in, and no one would miraculously show up to give her warmth.
So it was all false… she was still alone.
And she would soon be executed…

She didn’t know if it was because she no longer had any illusions, but after that day, Qiao Ning never again had such strange dreams.
Thus, like a walking zombie, time passed, until Hai Xiaotang came to visit her.
He wasn’t able to visit before, but now, finally, he could.
As soon as he had the chance, Hai Xiaotang came immediately.
Qiao Ning was happy to see him, and seeing him lifted her spirits a bit. But upon seeing her, Hai Xiaotang’s mood turned even more somber.
Because Qiao Ning had lost a lot of weight, she was already thin, but now she looked as if she could be blown away by a gust of wind.
Her face, once slightly chubby, had gotten much thinner, the baby fat was gone.
Especially her eyes, they were once so clear and sparkling, now they were like dry wells, dark and lifeless.
But seeing him, Qiao Ning smiled, “Xiaotang, long time no see.”
She greeted him in a soft voice, as if she was still that innocent girl.
Hai Xiaotang resisted the stinging in his nose and asked with concern, “Qiao Ning, are you okay in there? I’m sorry I couldn’t visit till now.”
Qiao Ning shook her head: “It’s okay. Xiaotang, you don’t have to worry about me, I’m fine here.”
“But you’ve lost so much weight…” Hai Xiaotang said distressedly, “Qiao Ning, I’m still trying to find a way to save you, just hang in there a little longer, never give up on yourself!”
Every time, she comforted and encouraged her like this.
Qiao Ning was truly touched, she laughed, “Xiaotang, don’t worry, I will live. Even if I only have one day left to live, I will live it well. I won’t let your kindness go to waste, I’ll keep being strong!”
