Chapter 188 Nightmare
Take the lights for example. I don’t know why they are so bright. The electricity supply is insufficient now. Although Yuanbao Village is very close to the provincial capital, it has already installed electric wires and lights. But when the power goes out, it goes out.
Power outages are commonplace.
A few years ago, there was an electrician who held a grudge because the team did not give him more food. He worked as an electrician for three years, but during those three years, the power would definitely be cut off on New Year's Eve, Spring Festival, and the fifteenth day of the first lunar month.
He said the line was broken and there was nothing anyone could do.
Later, my grandfather went directly to the commune.
There was no fear of offending him, as it seemed that the electrician had someone at home and had been transferred to another place.
So let alone the constant power outages in Yuanbao Village, even the light bulbs right now aren’t this bright.
There was still snow on Shen Qianfei's leather shoes.
At this time, because the house had floor heating, it melted quickly.
Li Xianzhi gave her a pair of plush slippers.
There were only two of them in the room. Li Xianzhi naturally bent down, put his slippers in front of Shen Qianfei, and said softly, "Change your slippers first. You must be very cold."
On the one hand, Shen Qianfei was a little scared, and on the other hand, her feet were really cold. It was winter, and the temperature outside was probably about minus 38 degrees Celsius.
Frozen feet for sure.
It was only a moment of awkwardness, but since she had followed him in and could smell the delicious food, it would be awkward if the stalemate continued.
So Shen Qianfei took off her boots quickly and put on the fluffy slippers. Wow, it felt so comfortable, and the warmth from the soles of her feet immediately spread to her heart.
In an instant, the warmth made Shen Qianfei smile.
Seeing such a smile, Li Xianzhi's heart felt warm.
He knew he was a little abrupt and a little selfish.
But I don’t know why.
He didn't want to sit there alone at all.
Cold wind, dark night, Lantern Festival, he just wanted to be with Feifei, even for just one minute.
After washing her hands and sitting at the dining table, Shen Qianfei belatedly realized that Li Xianzhi was not the only owner of the house.
And there is also the old man of the Li family.
As if he knew what she was thinking, Li Xianzhi said in a gentle voice without waiting for Shen Qianfei to ask, "Grandfather has eaten and is now resting."
This is the layout of a pure wealthy family.
It is arranged like a siheyuan, but it has three courtyards.
Because it is located in the north, there are long corridors connecting the houses.
The Li family's yard is very large, so the old man lives quite a distance from here.
Shen Qianfei felt relieved when she saw a small bowl of Yuanxiao on the table.
I asked Li Xianzhi, "What kind of filling is this?"
Li Xianzhi placed a small bowl of Yuanxiao in front of her and said calmly, "It's fruit-filled, so don't eat too much at night. Just try it."
At this time, Xiao An and the housekeeper came over with four dishes.
They all had smiles on their faces.
Shen Qianfei looked at them and smiled.
Then the two men put down their plates and left quickly.
There were only Li Xianzhi and Shen Qianfei in the restaurant.
This is not the first or second time that the two of them have eaten together.
They are already very familiar with each other, and they know each other's likes and dislikes. All the food in front of Shen Qianfei is her favorite, and then Shen Qianfei will use serving chopsticks to pick up dishes that she thinks are good for Li Xianzhi.
The dining table is large enough for two people to sit face to face.
Under the light, Li Xianzhi had soft features and a handsome face. Looking at such a beauty, Shen Qianfei thought that she could eat several more bowls of rice.
Then he thought to himself, she described him as a beautiful man. He must not let Xianzhi know.
Li Xianzhi glanced calmly at Shen Qianfei, who was sitting there with her eyes rolling around as if she was thinking about something funny.
I wonder what's going on in this little head?
The room was very cozy, with the occasional sound of two people talking quietly.
Li Xianzhi put down his chopsticks.
Before he knew it, he was full.
It's an incredible feeling.
There is a difference between taking nutritional supplements and feeling full.
After all, he is a living person, not a robot.
It didn't take long for the two of them to eat, only about twenty minutes.
But just these twenty minutes were enough to make the butler burst into tears of gratitude.
He is now looking forward to that day coming soon, so that the head of the family and Feifei can eat together every day, and he won't have to worry about three meals a day anymore.
He brought Shen Qianfei a bowl of fruit ice cream.
It’s not the kind of ice cream sold on the market, it’s made by myself.
Of course it was impossible to pack one portion for both Shen Qianfei and Luo Luo.
They are all flavors that children love, and are piled with various dried fruits and even fresh fruits.
It's really appetizing just by looking at it.
Shen Qianfei finished the fruit ice cream in front of her and ended her snack.
I patted my belly quietly. It’s great to be young. At this age, I can eat whatever I want without worrying about gaining weight.
Putting on her down jacket, scarf, hat and gloves, Shen Qianfei left the Li family with a bowl of fruit ice cream.
Li Xianzhi put on his coat and went out to see Shen Qianfei off. He didn't turn back until Feifei turned the corner, but he still looked up at the night sky while standing in the yard.
The moon tonight is round, beautiful and gentle.
He thought he could have a good sleep tonight.
At this time, the old man of the Li family put his hands on his chest. For some reason, he seemed to feel a little more comfortable.
The feeling of not being able to breathe in the dream has faded a lot.
He opened his eyes and looked at the roof.
He didn't dare sleep.
Ever since that vivid and horrible nightmare, sleeping has become a torture for him.
The scary thing is that he couldn't tell anyone about the content of his dream.
What kind of dream was that? A group of puppets wearing scary masks put him in a coffin and threw him into the sea.
But he did not sink, he was floating on the sea.
There was dark fog all around.
He saw his young and beautiful wife standing on the sea. She looked at him calmly, without even a hint of ridicule.
He hated this indifferent expression on her face the most in his life.
It was as if she didn't care about anything, nothing mattered to her, and everything seemed insignificant.
In her heart, he may not even mean anything.
If it weren't for her parents' orders and the matchmaker's words, she would never have married him.
But no one knew how much he loved her.
Although the coffin he was lying in had been closed, he clearly saw his wife being grabbed by countless black tentacles that suddenly appeared the next moment.
The tentacles were so powerful that they tore his wife into pieces, causing him to feel heartbroken...
He had this dream for a full half month.
He finally collapsed on the early morning of the sixteenth day.
So what does this dream mean? Has his wife left him forever?
Impossible, this is impossible!!!
