CHAPTER 755 – Frightened
Her lips clamped shut after a minute of screaming her lungs out.
Her heart leapt into her throat; her eyes still focused on the plate beside her. Her breathing was ragged.
The thudding of her heart against her chest was loud enough to burst her eardrums. Still, it did not stop what she saw or change the sight.
Bai Qing Mei retracted her hand, clutching it close to her chest. Her eyes did not move. Her fear rose, marring her pretty face with it.
It was different. Her plate. Her fruits.
Some seconds passed, and it was still the same thing.
Left with no choice, she chose to brace up and check.
'Qing Mei, you can do this. Stand strong no matter what, brace up. Do not let your fear in. What did mum tell you?' She chanted inwardly.
Replaying her mother's words in her mind, she found her heartbeat began to calm down.
