Boom! There were still bursts of thunder outside.
In the villa, Shi Qi woke up from a nightmare.
Her face turned pale, and large drops of sweat slid down her cheeks from her cold forehead. Her little hands pressed against her heavy chest with lingering fear, and her eyes grew colder and colder.
The curtains all around were drooping quietly. On the window sill hung a draped goose down curtain, which was now hanging heavily, with apricot tassels at the bottom. Outside the lattice window was the dark and pouring rain.
Big raindrops fell, hitting the glass windows with a loud bang.
Shi Qi stared at the window absentmindedly, and the dark face of the man holding the dagger in his mind gradually became clear.
Thinking of her mother in the heavy rain, she clenched her hands tightly until her fingertips turned white and her heart felt bitter.
Unable to sleep anymore, Shi Qi picked up his phone from the table and opened it to see that it was past two in the morning.
He opened the address book, clicked on Jiu Ye's number and called.
At this time, she really wanted to hear Jiu Ye's voice.
beep……
"The number you dialed is busy..." a cold voice prompt.
Shi Qi was so depressed that he threw his phone to the bedside. He lay on the bed and stared at the ceiling, annoyed by the constant thunder outside.
“Knock, knock, knock…”
The ringing of the cell phone made Shi Qi suspiciously get up from the bed and look over.
video call!
Jiu Ye!
Shi Qi's eyes lit up instantly, his eyebrows curved, and a happy arc appeared at the corners of his lips as he answered the video call.
Soon, the phone showed Jiu Ye sitting on the sofa. He was wearing a pure black shirt, and his fox eyes looked lazy and enchanting under the light. His figure was slender and straight, and he crossed his legs in a noble and ascetic manner. His tone was very leisurely, "Hmm? Xiao Qi'er, do you miss Jiu Ye?"
Shi Qi pursed her lips and said nothing, just looking at Jiu Ye quietly. Listening to his gentle and soft voice, her uneasy heart slowly calmed down.
Ye Jiu lazily put his arms on the sofa at the back, looking over with a lazy and seductive expression. He saw Shi Qi's soft white cheeks pressed against his wet hair, and he looked listless. Then he heard the sound of thunder coming from the other end of the phone.
His eyes moved slightly, his dark eyes staring at her without blinking, and he asked in a soft and hoarse voice, "Are you having a nightmare again?"
Shi Qi showed a wet little head, and his clear and bright eyes seemed to be covered with a layer of mist. He looked as soft and innocent as an elk, and he said "hmm" with eager eyes.
The pitiful little appearance, as if it had suffered a lot of grievances, made Jiu Ye feel particularly distressed and softened.
"Be good! Don't be afraid, Master Jiu is with you." His voice, which was slightly lowered, was magnetic and hoarse, stirring the heartstrings, with a charming coaxing sound.
He leaned back on the sofa, his clothes half open, a smile on his lips, and his eyes revealed a doting and warmth that almost melted people.
Shi Qi lay on the bed with her cell phone in hand. Her cool summer pajamas were short and thin. She looked straight at the gentle Jiu Ye on the phone, and her heart felt sweet and soft.
But when she leaned over, half of what was inside her collar was exposed.
Yejiu narrowed his fox eyes slightly, his face looking particularly enchanting. He just lowered his eyes to look at her, and somewhere in his heart suddenly became restless.
Shi Qi didn't know that Jiu Ye was staring at her with a gloomy look in his eyes, and she continued talking to him.
Speaking of returning to the Yan family, I found out a lot of things.
Yejiu would also give her some advice, but in the end he still asked her to protect herself, as he would be going back soon.
"kindness……"
Shi Qi lay on the bed with her eyelids drooping heavily. With Jiu Ye's company, she fell asleep peacefully.
Yejiu didn't turn off his phone and just looked at her sleeping face until Shiqi's phone ran out of battery, then he turned it off.
