He felt that not only his fingers were hooked by her, but also his heart, so he was reluctant to pull his hand away. He sat on the edge of the bed and coaxed her softly: "Hey, I'll stay with you."
"Go to sleep."
So, the little drunk cat clenched his fingers and fell asleep contentedly.
He Tingjun listened to her even breathing and was reluctant to pull his hand away.
It was not until Ye Yuanzhang called his name outside the door and the footsteps were getting closer that he reluctantly pulled his hand out from Yun Qiao's fingers.
He Tingjun stuffed Yun Qiao's arms into the quilt, tucked the corner of the quilt for her, and then came out from the inner room.
"Brother Yuanzhang, what can I do for you?"
Ye Yuanzhang first poked his head into the inner room and asked, "Yun Qiao fell asleep."
He Tingjun hummed, "I didn't expect her to be so drunk after just one drink."
"After all, it's my first time drinking, so I can't drink much."
Ye Yuanzhang smiled and said, "It's almost time, let's go take Kang Ning to school."
He Tingjun subconsciously glanced behind him.
Ye Yuanzhang knew he was worried, so he said, "It's okay. She didn't drink much, so she won't vomit. If you're worried, your sister-in-law will come over to check on her after she finishes washing the dishes."
He Tingjun nodded: "Then let's go."
Kang Ning had already packed his schoolbag and was standing at the door waiting.
Ye Yuanzhang habitually took the schoolbag from Kang Ning's hand and said, "Come on, my daughter. Daddy and your uncle Tingjun will take you to school together."
*
It is a chilly night in late autumn.
The prickly cool wind swept through the dead leaves on the ground, and they fell everywhere.
In the dark night like ink, the bleak moonlight enveloped the woman with a panic-stricken face.
The weak moonlight could not illuminate the dark night road. She carried a lantern and ran out of the house in a hurry without even putting on any clothes.
Yun Qiao was floating in the air, watching her walk out of the house as if in a movie, and ran towards Accountant Xu's house in the alley ahead. However, just before she knocked on Xu's door, a black shadow suddenly jumped out from behind her, forcibly covered her mouth and dragged her away in the opposite direction of her home.
With a "bang", the lantern fell to the ground, the glass cover shattered, and the faint candlelight inside was extinguished.
In the darkness, the woman opened her eyes wide in fear. She wanted to call for help, but her mouth was covered tightly and she could only make vague whimpers.
The black shadow was very strong, and she couldn't break free no matter how hard she tried. She could only be dragged away by the black shadow in a miserable state.
Yun Qiao was shocked and subconsciously floated over, trying to stop it.
"Stop! Don't touch her!"
She stretched out her hand, but suddenly a thick black fog appeared before her eyes.
The thick fog was like a barrier, blocking her ten feet away.
Yun Qiao's eyes were obscured by thick black fog, and he could only watch the woman's figure being limped and dragged into the endless darkness by the evil black shadow.
The night deepened, and darkness enveloped the entire world, as if to swallow everything.
Yun Qiao's soul was torn apart and his eyes were filled with despair.
"don't want!"
"don't want!"
…
"Yun Qiao? Yun Qiao!"
Li Qiuqiu's anxious voice sounded in his ears.
Yun Qiao felt heavy in the head and struggled to keep his eyelids open.
Having just woken up from a chaotic and hopeless dream, she was a little dazed for a moment. Turning her head, she met Li Qiu's eyes filled with worry and concern. Yun Qiao hesitantly opened her mouth and said in a hoarse voice, "Aunt?"
"Yun Qiao, what's wrong with you? Why are your hands so cold? Did you have a nightmare?"
Li Qiqiu grabbed Yun Qiao's cold hand and rubbed it repeatedly, trying to warm it up. As if coaxing a child, she softly said, "Hey Yun Qiao, did you have a bad dream? Don't be afraid. Auntie is here with you."
When Yun Qiao saw his aunt in front of him, his nose felt sore and he couldn't hold back his tears.
She sat up, hugged Li Qiu, buried her head in her neck, and cried bitterly: "Aunt."
Warm tears dripped onto Li Qiqiu's chest. Listening to Yun Qiao's suppressed crying, Li Qiqiu felt his heart was broken.
"My dear, don't cry, don't cry. It's just a dream. Dreams are always the opposite of what they used to be. Don't be afraid."
Li Qiuqiu patted her back gently and comforted her: "If you really can't bear it, just tell me what you dreamed about. I will interpret it for you."
"Aunt." Yun Qiao's eyes were red and he sobbed, "I, I dreamed that something happened to you."
