Bab 835: These Are Sleeping Pills (3)

She didn't say a word, but her tears welled and gathered behind the rims of her eyes, before they overflowed and slid down her cheeks in two streams.

The tears hung momentarily at the edge of her jaw and fell on the ground with a silent splash.

But they were like boiling hot water hitting against his heart.

There was a writhing pain inside his chest.

He quickly put the vial of medicine and the glass of water away, and fumbled around for a tissue to dry her eyes.

But the tears were now falling at an alarming rate and at last, he felt completely helpless.

He looked at her and pleaded, "Xiao Qiao, please don't cry. I—"

Before he could finish speaking, she suddenly turned around and threw her arms around him.

"You fool! All sleeping pills have side effects, do you think I'm stupid? Why do you want to take these pills and harm yourself?"

Her crying had left him at a total loss.
