Mo MeiLi's voice sounded gentle but worried. She was staring intently at her baby daughter, carefully observing YuYan's expression and did not dare to blink her eyes.
When YuYan's body turned stiff, Mo MeiLi's heart skipped a beat. She can't help forgetting to breathe while her daughter's pale face turning white.
She can see the beads of sweat that started forming on her daughter's forehead. Mo MeiLi's mind is screaming in disbelief for getting the answer she feared the most.
There were no words that came out of Mo MeiLi's mouth. She was frozen while watching her daughter biting her lips before lowering her head.
"N... No..." YuYan faintly uttered while she shook her head. Her voice sounded disappearing while her long black hair falls down to cover her face.
She can feel her mother's gaze, creating fear in her heart that started beating fast while the cold sweat began soaking her back.
YuYan can only guess; her response and expressions are obvious enough to reveal her lies. She wanted to cry, her mind is swirling while trying to think of a way to get out of the situation.
She subconsciously grabs the edge of the dining table, but her hand started trembling due to her anxiousness. Every second of waiting for Mo MeiLi to react feels like taking forever.
Everything suddenly seems in slow motion as her senses started becoming sensitive. YuYan can feel something unusual is happening to her body.
The coldness and heat are raging within her like opposing elements are on a rampage, making her mind turned blank while her vision turned dark.
It's been almost half a year since she started feeding Xiao YuRin her blood in secret. Every night and day made her feel unknown changes in her body.
For the first few nights, YuYan's body started to feel weak. She didn't mind though, thinking that it was just because she's been staying up late all night.
YuYan continued to wake up late, but her attitude started to change. Although she's been pretending to behave differently than what she used to, it became her real behavior.
Since she's been acting the same, no one suspected that there's something wrong about her. This was not noticed by Xiao XiRan who was been with her every time.
She has no idea about her own changes. YuYan thought that she's just tired and lack of sleep. Therefore, they try taking a nap in the afternoon.
Her face started to turn pale, while her red lips started to lose its color. YuYan ignored all of it until one night, a slight pain in her arms started to spread through her body.
YuYan thinks that it is probably because of what she was doing, thinking that losing a small amount of blood doesn't hurt, but eventually, it started to hurt a lot.
Every drop of blood leaving her veins created a current that runs towards her body. There was a prickling feeling like a thousand of ants biting inside her.
When she tried to ignore the pain, YuYan started to feel like she's being skinned alive while her flesh was being ripped apart, but that's not all.
Her bones feel like its slowly cracking and crushing into small pieces as it continued. YuYan can even hear a faint sound inside her; it was like a dry wood burning in the fire.
She tried hard not to make a sound due to fear that someone might hear her. YuYan keeps on telling herself that she needs to bear the pain for the sake of her brother.
Suffering from the feeling of dying, tears keep on falling from YuYan's eyes; but this did not stop her. She took a piece of cloth to cover her mouth; biting hard while crying silently.
By then, YuYan started to feel weak whenever she loses her blood. She began having a hard time to get out of Xiao YuRin's bedroom and carefully climbing down the tree next to the balcony.
