Chapter 769 Go to hell
Because checking surveillance footage would take a long time, there wouldn't be much progress on the case anytime soon. Ruan Qi had to get up early the next day, so Xi Jiu let her go to bed.
Perhaps stimulated by the human blood in the roses, Ruan Qi did not sleep very well that night and kept having intermittent dreams.
In her dream, she saw large patches of red, like fire, or blood.
Then the picture turned black and a shrill and desperate cry was heard.
"You killed us! Why don't you pay us with your lives!"
"It's all your fault! If it weren't for you, Jiang Chunian wouldn't have burned us to death!"
"Go to hell! Go to hell!
!”
call--!
Her tightly closed eyes suddenly opened, and Ruan Qi gasped heavily.
The bedroom was very quiet, the curtains were drawn tightly, and there was darkness in front of me.
Ruan Qi lay on the bed for a few seconds and finally woke up from the fear of the nightmare.
She wiped the cold sweat from her head and reached to the side with her other hand out of habit.
The bed was cold and Xi Jiu was not there.
Having just had a nightmare and Xi Jiu not being around, Ruan Qi suddenly felt a little anxious.
She ignored the cold sweat on her body, threw off the quilt, jumped out of bed, and staggered towards the bedroom door.
"Jiujiu!"
Ruan Qi ran and shouted, but because she was too panicked and the room was too dark, she didn't pay attention to her feet and tripped over the suitcase on the floor.
With a sound of winter, a sharp pain came from the toes.
Then Ruan Qi's body fell forward due to inertia and fell to the ground.
Xi Jiu, who had just finished making breakfast, pushed the door open and saw this scene.
His expression suddenly changed, and he rushed over as fast as he could, stretched out his long arms, and embraced the little girl.
"How's the baby? Did you fall?"
Ruan Qi, who had just woken up, was still a little dazed.
She let Xi Jiu check her body in a daze. After a while, she came to her senses and said, "I didn't fall, I just hit my foot."
When Xi Jiu heard this, he immediately picked her up and took a few quick steps to put her on the bed.
Ruan Qi grabbed the corner of his clothes and said, "Jiujiu, where have you been? I woke up and couldn't find you. I was a little scared."
The little girl has always been bold. She can go into a haunted house by herself without batting an eyelid, and she never needs anyone to accompany her to sleep.
Xi Jiu noticed her abnormality, looked at her face in the light from outside the house, and immediately understood everything.
"Baby, are you having a nightmare again?"
Ruan Qi pursed her lips and uttered a muffled "hmm".
Xi Jiu immediately felt distressed.
He took out a few tissues to help the little girl wipe away the cold sweat, then squatted down to rub her sore foot. After doing all this, he sat down on the bed and hugged her in his arms.
"I just went to make breakfast for the baby. Don't be afraid, baby, I won't leave. Even if something happens and I go out, as long as your eldest brother calls, I will rush back the first time no matter where I am."
The man's voice was cold and reassuring, and Ruan Qi's panicked heart slowly settled.
She hugged his waist and buried her head in his arms.
"Jiujiu, I'm worried that the roses were sent by Jiang Chunian. I don't think he's dead."
"Don't worry about him." Xi Jiu rubbed her head. "No matter if he's dead or not, as long as I find him, I will make him die. Baby, the person who gave you roses may want to make you lose your composure in this way. If you really panic, you will be fooled by the other party. So, don't think about it, okay? Just go to work with peace of mind, and leave everything to me."
