A Nightmare (18)

Qin Chu was getting hot water for Huo Mian when she woke up. He's been taking care of her for days, and barely ate or slept. 

He was going to wipe Huo Mian's face and feet for her when she woke up.

"Honey…"

Qin Chu's body froze upon hearing the weak voice of his wife. He quickly turned around and raced up to the bed, feeling incredibly emotional. He called out her name gently, "Mian…"

"Honey… how long have I been sleeping?"

"Three days."

"That's so long… I feel dizzy…"

"Don't move, stay down." Qin Chu quickly pulled up her comforter.

"Honey… where's Su Yu?"

"He's fine, he's resting up downstairs."

"Where's Huo Siqian?" Huo Mian looked at Qin Chu with a sad expression.

Qin Chu's hand froze, and he didn't answer.

"Honey, tell me, where's Huo Siqian?" Huo Mian feebly grabbed Qin Chu's arm and asked again.

"He's… dead." Qin Chu said slowly; he didn't want to agitate her.
