"Brother Lei, you can come over now," A'niu called out.
Lei Baiwan hurried to his feet and came running, "A'niu, what happened to Jiao Jiao? Why is she sleeping on the ground?"
"She has been cursed, her consciousness has constantly been controlled by a sorcerer; coupled with the infestation of the Yin Evil Qi from her home, her body is nearly completely hollowed out," A'niu explained.
Lei Baiwan turned pale with shock, "Then... then has she died... passed away?"
Zhou Jiaojiao was lying straight as a rod in the sunlight in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, looking as peaceful as if she were simply asleep.
"No, she is just too exhausted and fell asleep, that's all. She's had it worse than you over the past half a year—it's likely she hasn't had one good night's sleep, which is also why she has been so irritable."
"Then I'll carry her to the bedroom so she can have a good sleep, but A'niu, don't leave just yet. Wait until Jiao Jiao wakes up before going, alright?"
