Chapter 268: Did You Come to See Miss Ben's Jokes?
The military department of the Lang Mansion, the West Garden is like a Jiao Pavilion.
Zhou Jiao lay upright on the bed, covered with a thin quilt. It's just that the thin quilt has collapsed badly, as if there is not a person under the thin quilt, just a few pieces of thin paper, which shows how thin Zhou Jiao's body has become now.
Look at Zhou Jiao's face again. Although Zhou Jiao can't be regarded as a stunning beauty, she can be sent to the prince's mansion by Zhou Shilang, and her appearance is also first-class. But now this superior appearance is like a flower that is about to wither after winter.
She had a sleazed complexion, sunken cheeks, and raised cheekbones. The eyes that were originally bright are now as quiet as a pool of stagnant water, staring straight at the top of the bed without blinking.
If anyone is stared at by her eyes at this time, I am afraid that they will be frightened to the point of dissipation.
Zhou Jiao's situation is critical at this time, but although there are people waiting next to her, they don't always keep an eye on her, after all, Zhou Jiao is just an outcast now, and they, the so-called people who are waiting on the side, just ensure that she doesn't die.
And now that it's late at night, who else will be thinking about Zhou Jiao, a half-dead person? But on such a dead night, the sound of the two doors opening and closing was particularly abrupt and terrifying.
Hearing the movement of the door opening not far away, Zhou Jiao was still lying motionless on the bed, even her eyelids were unblinking, and her eyeballs were motionless.
If it weren't for the slight tremor under the thin quilt, and the almost inaudible sound of breathing, I am afraid that I would have thought that there was a dead man lying on the bed.
Although the footsteps from far and near were very soft, they were exceptionally clear in such a dead night. Although Zhou Jiao was motionless, she could know that the person who pushed the door was walking towards her, and then stood still not far from her......
She originally thought that it was those few who came in, and they wanted to be her maids all the time, but when the person who came in came in, she was silent, just standing not far away and looking at her, she knew that the person who came in was someone else.
But even so, she didn't turn her head to see who had come in.
Because for her at this time, it doesn't matter who comes in. She's going to die, and it doesn't matter who comes to see her in the middle of the night to laugh.
"I haven't seen you for a long time, and it seems that you've been really bad lately."
A familiar and unfamiliar voice came, and Zhou Jiao, who was lying on the bed with unblinking eyes, suddenly widened her eyes.
It was as if she had encountered something extremely terrifying or exciting, and her eyes were torn. Originally, because she was very thin, her eyes seemed bulging. Now that her eyes are wide like this, at first glance, it looks like her eyeballs are about to burst out, which is extremely frightening.
"Hehehe......" Suddenly, Zhou Jiao let out a sneering laugh, which made people feel creepy in this silent night.
But the person who came in only stood quietly as if he hadn't heard it, and his dark eyes were indifferent, "What do you think you will do if the people who are waiting for you wake up at this time?" ”
Under the dim candlelight, the naked eye could see the smile on the corner of Zhou Jiao's mouth slightly stiff. But in the next moment, I saw her evoke a mocking and eerie smile.
"Miss Ben didn't expect that someone would come to visit Miss Ben now, and this person is still you." She turned her head to look at the person standing not far from her, "Mu Qingnuan, are you here to see Miss Ben's joke?" ”
