Stealing the moonlight into my arms

Chapter 99 He Really Wanted Her to Stop Screaming

It's drizzling outside the window.

Xiao Jingting dreamed of that damp, dark and musty basement again.

It was pitch black, and even the nights at that time seemed long and dead silent, seemingly never ending.

Later, a fire almost swallowed him, but it also became his way of survival.

For a long time he was afraid of light and terrified of fire.

I only like the cold and dark night.

Xiao Jingting woke up from a nightmare.

He suddenly opened his eyes. The lights in the living room were dim and a variety show was playing silently on TV.

Fu Runing sat cross-legged on the carpet, her back leaning against the sofa, watching the silent variety show with great interest.

Xiao Jingting looked at himself and found that a blanket had been covering him at some point, and he was lying flat on the sofa.

His turning over caused Fu Runing to look back at him.

"Are you awake?"

Xiao Jingting sat up, pinched his brows, looked around, and asked casually: "Where is Xu Luo?"

"Carry you back to the room and sleep." Fu Runing glanced at him and then said, "I can't hold you, so you can only sleep like this."

Xiao Jingting curled his lips imperceptibly, and the dim light obscured the emotions in his eyes.

"Dad will be discharged from the hospital next week, right?"

Xiao Jingting suddenly spoke to her.

When Fu Runing heard him mention his father, her lower back unconsciously relaxed. She leaned against the sofa and sighed.

"It depends on the situation when you come back."

Xiao Jingting said: "Let's change the medical team. We can hire better ones from abroad."

Fu Runing was silent for a long time. In fact, the doctors who had treated her father over the years were all very good, but this disease was like this, it was fate.

In the past few years of her marriage to Xiao Jingting, she has gained a lot of benefits. The family's foreign debts have been cleared, her second uncle's business has restarted, and her father's illness has the best medical resources.

At least it ensured their safety for the next three years.

Apart from other things, Xiao Jingting really helped her family a lot.

After a while, Fu Runing shook her head slightly and said, "Let's talk about it later."

Even if we rashly change the medical team and treatment plan now, it is not certain that my father will be able to bear it.

Xiao Jingting said in a deep voice: “I will pick up Dad when he is discharged from the hospital.”

Finally, he added, "From now on, you can live in your home and spend more time with your father. If your second uncle says anything about you, I will go and tell him."

Fu Runing hugged her calf, turned around and looked at him with a smile, "You've been talking and doing human things lately, I'm a little uncomfortable with it."

There was something strange in Xiao Jingting's expression. He was always at a loss when teased by Fu Runing, who didn't know whether she was sincere or not.

He didn't know how to deal with it before, so he could only respond with indifference.

Fu Runing always manages to stir up his emotions like this.

So he felt that he hated her.

Not getting a response, Fu Runing felt it was boring to talk to this taciturn person. She stretched and prepared to stand up and go back to her room to sleep.

However, as soon as she moved her feet, her calf suddenly cramped. She cried out and fell onto the sofa.

Xiao Jingting quickly supported her shoulders, "What's wrong?"

"Cramps...it hurts so much."

The man laid her calf flat and pinched it directly with his hands. "Tighten it, then relax it, try a few times."

Fu Runing's face was wrinkled in pain, and she couldn't exert any strength. She just held on for a few seconds before she relaxed in pain.

"Hold on." Xiao Jingting held her calf and forced her to straighten her legs.

His fingers kneaded the cramped spot in her leg.

Fu Runing didn't feel any pain and cried out "ouch" for a long time.

Xiao Jingting frowned and looked at her for a few seconds, wanting to say something but stopping himself.

It was inappropriate, but he really wanted her to stop screaming.

But the calf cramp was so painful that Fu Runing couldn't think of anything else. She ignored the fact that her legs were still on Xiao Jingting's legs and rubbed his legs hard twice.

"Can you do it? It still hurts..."

Xiao Jingting looked away and said in a low voice, "Don't move, just hold on for a while."

Fu Runing followed his instructions and stopped moving.

After struggling for a while, Xiao Jingting gradually felt that the world around him became quiet. She finally stopped making any sound, and it seemed that she was fine.

Fu Runing let out a long sigh, then sank back into the sofa, exhausted.

She looked at the ceiling and muttered to herself, "It seems I'm at the age where I need to supplement calcium..."

She was just about to retract her foot and stand up.

Suddenly, she felt a force on her calf. She looked sideways and saw the man's hand holding her calf again.
