Chapter 1076 I’m Afraid It’s Just a Dream
Taking those talismans, he asked Qiuchi: "Aunt Ping, I want to ask you something. If I have these talismans on my body, will it make me unlucky too?"
"This..." Zhou Ping paused and seemed to be thinking seriously.
After a while: "I'm not thinking about you."
Xiang Qiuchi...
Seeing that Xiang Qiuchi's face was hurt, Zhou Ping cleared her throat: "Ahem, it shouldn't happen. If you're worried, just... wrap it up with this and put it on your body."
She grabbed a piece of cotton that she had cut out to make a little hat.
"Is this...useful?" Xiang Qiuchi was confused.
Zhou Ping nodded: "It's useful."
In fact, she didn't know if it would be useful.
Xiang Qiuchi was full of doubts and wrapped the talisman with the piece of cloth.
"I...it's better to leave it outside first, so as not to bring any bad luck to our family..."
Xiang Qiuchi ran out with it and pressed it under a tree with a stone.
…
Because when Xiang Qiuchi left, he told the nurse on night shift to pay more attention and take care of Mu Chaochao.
So the little nurse went to check on her after a while.
It was almost 12 o'clock in the evening. The nurse checked the night and found that Mu Chaochao was not asleep yet.
She was a small person, huddled up in a ball, not daring to lie down, and kept trembling there.
The other two people in the same ward were already asleep.
The little nurse walked over and asked in a low voice: "Chaochao, why don't you go to bed? It's so late?"
Mu Chaochao raised his head, looked at the nurse and said, "Sister, I don't dare to sleep..."
Her eyes were timid and full of uneasiness, which made the nurse feel as if motherly love was overflowing. She sat down and said, "Don't be afraid, this is a hospital, you are safe."
The story about this little girl has spread throughout their department.
In the WeChat group of their department, everyone said that they must help this little girl no matter what, and they cannot let her go back and be abused again.
There was no good spot on this little girl's body except her face. She only had multiple burns from cigarette butts, which made people feel distressed just to look at them. She also had many old and new fractures on her body, which was really terrible.
They couldn't imagine how this little girl had persisted until now in the past many years.
It's terrible. How could a human being be so harsh on his own daughter?
They were all very angry, with a strong sense of justice, and united to seek justice for the little girl.
However, they all know that with Dr. Gu here, they can just wave the flag and cheer. The boss has a backer behind him, so what are they afraid of...
Mu Chaochao bit his lip and said, "I'm... scared. After I fell asleep, when I woke up, all this was my dream..."
Because he cherished the happiness at this moment so much, Mu Chaochao wanted to enjoy it for one more moment.
She was afraid that when dawn came and she woke up, all this would be false.
She was afraid that if her stepfather and mother came over tomorrow, she would lose everything she had now.
The fear in Mu Chaochao's heart did not disappear because he escaped, but became more serious.
Because I am afraid of losing and being captured, it will be even more terrible torture.
I'm afraid that after I go back, I won't have the good luck to escape from my stepfather's clutches together. At that time, life will really be worse than death...
The nurse felt distressed. She knew Mu Chaochao's fear.
She took Mu Chaochao's hand and said, "Little sister, don't be afraid. Seriously, listen to me. You are different this time from before. You will never be taken back again."
