Chapter 104: Finding the Fruit of Time
Ye Jing slept very uneasily. She had all kinds of strange dreams almost the entire time. The scenes kept changing and the characters were blurry. She even woke up a few times in a daze, and then closed her eyes and fell asleep again.
After an unknown amount of time, she turned over in her arms, hugging the quilt. Maybe because of the dream, she slept more tiredly than usual and felt weak all over.
Rubbing the quilt with her eyes closed, Ye Jing was vaguely thinking that she must sleep well this time, but for some reason, after that moment, her mind suddenly became clearer and clearer.
I can't seem to sleep.
Ye Jing sighed softly and slowly opened her eyes. The dormitory was still very dark. Except for the occasional sound of wind coming in from the window, the room was very quiet.
She turned her head to look out the window. It was pitch black outside.
The swaying branches are like dancing shadows, accompanied by the howling sound of the wind, which is really a bit scary.
Ye Jing shuddered, shrank her neck, and burrowed into the quilt. She fished out her phone from under the pillow, opened WeChat, and somehow sent a message to Xie Fei -
Are you awake?
After waiting for a while without receiving a reply, Ye Jing pursed her lips in disappointment. While thinking, "He is still sleeping," she sent him another message: I can't sleep [crying] Please message me as soon as you wake up.
After posting, I opened the reading software and started reading the novel I've been following recently.
In the silence, she seemed to hear a little sound coming from the stairs not far from her dormitory door. Ye Jing was startled, turned off her cell phone and listened carefully.
The voice seemed to disappear again. Ye Jing blinked in confusion, wondering if she was engrossed in reading the novel and had this hallucination.
Thinking of this, she picked up the phone again, and at this moment, there was a soft "click" sound.
Ye Jing paused while entering the password.
That was the sound of someone walking up the stairs in leather shoes. She heard it clearly this time, although the sound was very light and slow.
If she hadn't been awake, she wouldn't have heard it at all.
Who is walking around the dormitory building in the middle of the night? There should be no one else in the dormitory building except me tonight, so whose leather shoes are making that sound?
The sound was getting closer and closer, and seemed to be coming towards her. Ye Jing's heart suddenly hung in her throat, beating nervously, and before she knew it, beads of sweat seeped out of her palms.
She lay motionless on the bed, her hands tightly holding her cell phone and quilt, her ears perked up to listen carefully to the movements outside the door, her eyes staring at the closed dormitory door without blinking in the dark night.
The footsteps stopped in front of her door. Ye Jing's heart stopped for a second in a nervous moment, and then it started beating "boom boom" in panic.
After about ten seconds, there was a rustling sound from outside the door, perhaps a key or something was inserted into the keyhole, trying to open the door.
Ye Jing's face changed drastically. She no longer cared about being afraid. She quickly and quietly got up from the bed, walked to the door, and locked the door.
After a clear "click" sound, the rustling sound outside the house suddenly disappeared.
After an unknown amount of time in the dead silence, a man's voice that Ye Jing was very familiar with rang out through a metal door that was neither thick nor thin: "Jing'er, I'm your father. Open the door and let me in. Let's have a good talk."
His tone was the same as before, gentle and doting, as if he had come to her bedroom when she was a child and told her not to stay in bed, but when Ye Jing heard it now, she couldn't help feeling nauseous.
He is really a pervert. What normal person would sneak into someone else's lock in the middle of the night? And does he really think I am a fool and want to trick me into opening the door for him?
Ye Jing didn't say anything and waited for a while. Perhaps Ye Shimian knew that what he said was unrealistic, so he started to unlock the door again: "It doesn't matter if you don't open the door for me. It doesn't matter if you lock the door. It just takes more time. Wait for me to come in, Jing'er."
Ye Jing felt a chill. She took a deep breath to calm her panicked mood, closed her eyes, then opened them again and looked around. While quickly searching for weapons and hiding places in the house, she quickly opened her cell phone and called Xie Fei.
The call was picked up very quickly. Almost as soon as I dialed, someone picked up the phone: "What? Are you tired of waiting? I just saw your message and was about to reply you..."
There was a hint of sleepiness and laziness in his voice, but it inexplicably made Ye Jing feel at ease. Although she knew it would take a long time for him to arrive, he was the first person she thought of.
Slightly relieved, Ye Jing immediately whispered: "Ning Yi, Ye Shimian is now outside my dormitory door, he is unlocking it, I am afraid of him... Can you come over quickly?"
There was a rustling sound over there. It should be Xie Fei getting up and getting dressed. At the same time, his steady and powerful voice came: "Don't be afraid, I'm in the boys' dormitory and will be here in a few minutes. Find something handy to hold first. If there is any danger, just take action. I will bear all the consequences. But if he still has some sense, don't provoke him. Let me take care of everything. Believe me, I will never let anything happen to you."
After hanging up the phone, Ye Jing was no longer so scared when she heard the noise outside the door. She picked up the cleaning mop from the corner of the balcony, held it in her hand, then went into the bathroom and closed the door tightly.
Ye Jing leaned against the wall, holding the mop tightly in both hands. In the silence of the room, two soft "click" and "click" sounds were heard one after another, followed by a "squeak".
The door was gently pushed open and the lights came on.
Ye Jing held her breath and through the gap in the toilet door, she could see Ye Shimian's every move from the large mirror on the wall opposite the door.
He walked slowly and made little noise, wore a well-fitting suit and shiny leather shoes, and his hair was combed meticulously.
Ye Jing saw Ye Shimian first walk to her bed. The quilt on the bed was bulging high, as if someone was lying inside and sleeping.
In the empty dormitory, Ye Shimian looked at the quilt and suddenly smiled, with a doting smile on his face. He whispered, "Jing'er, you are still so cute and silly. Since you already knew I was coming, why would you stay under the quilt? However, since I like you, no matter what you do, I will of course be happy to cooperate with you."
As he spoke, Ye Shimian gently lifted the quilt. He leaned over and touched the pillow, which still had some warmth and fragrance. Then he put his hand under his nose and sniffed twice. With an obsessed look on his face, he sighed softly, "It smells so good."
abnormal!
When Ye Jing saw this scene, she was so angry that her whole body began to tremble. She suppressed the discomfort in her heart, bit her lower lip and looked at Ye Shimian with a bad face.
After lingering for a while, Ye Shimian looked around and smiled strangely: "Jing'er, are you playing hide-and-seek with Dad? Okay, wait, I'll come to you soon, very quickly."
Hearing these words, Ye Jing's scalp couldn't help but feel numb, and goose bumps appeared all over her body.
As soon as he finished speaking, Ye Shimian started looking everywhere. While rummaging through boxes and drawers, he kept muttering, "Is it here?", "Oh, no, then it must be here", "Jing'er, you are so naughty" and so on.
Soon, he searched all the places in the dormitory where people could hide, such as the closet, under the bed, and under the table. Ye Jing's heart suddenly started beating fast. She knew that Ye Shimian would be coming towards her the next moment.
Sure enough, after searching everywhere without any results, Ye Shimian turned his gaze to the innermost balcony and toilet. He raised his foot and slowly walked towards this side, and Ye Jing's body instantly tensed up.
The footsteps sounded "tapping", and Ye Jing's heartbeat became faster and faster with the sound. She couldn't help but hold her breath and tightly grasped the mop with both hands.
In just a few seconds, a pair of leather shoes stood with the toes pointing towards the toilet door. Ye Jing could only see one side of his shoulder through the crack in the door and could not see his face at all. The mirror opposite only reflected his thin back.
For a moment, the dormitory was quiet, so quiet that it made people feel cold in their hearts.
Not long after, Ye Shimian's voice rang out again in the deserted house: "Ha, so you are here. It took me so long to find you! But it doesn't matter. I found you anyway. Jing'er, please open the door. I am running out of patience."
His voice was full of surprise at finding someone and impatient threats. Ye Jing had never heard such a strange tone from him, so plain yet inexplicably frightening. In addition, he was blocking the door, so the voice passed through the crack in the door into the dim little toilet and surrounded her, as if some ferocious beast was approaching her little by little.
Ye Jing swallowed silently, without answering him or making any movement.
Ye Shimian waited for about ten seconds before his patience finally ran out.
The toilet door was a wooden door, and the lock was no match for the iron door outside. Ye Shimian did not use technical means to unlock it again. This time he just kicked the door rudely.
The "bang bang" sounds came one after another, like a mop hitting Ye Jing's heart. After four or five times, the door became a little loose. Ye Jing's eyes, which were fixed on the door, flashed twice and his breathing became heavy.
Hold on, hold on, Ning Yi will be here soon!
After being kicked a few more times, the door finally couldn't hold on anymore and was kicked open with a "clang", and a figure was projected on the ground.
Ye Jing's heart was in her throat, but she calmed down at this moment. She tightened her grip on the mop, and a surge of bravery and heroism suddenly surged in her heart.
"Jing'er, stop hiding and come out." Ye Shimian said with a smile.
Ye Jing said nothing, just stood against the wall with the mop held high.
"In that case, don't blame me." Ye Shimian walked in. Ye Jing quickly hit him hard on the head with a mop.
After a dull thud, Ye Shimian groaned in pain, covered his neck with one hand and squeezed it, then looked at Ye Jing. Ye Jing's mind was blank at this moment, she only knew that the attack could not stop, so she raised the mop and hit him again and again without saying a word.
After Ye Shimian was stunned for a moment, his face suddenly became extremely gloomy. He sneered, took a step forward despite being hit a few more times, grabbed her wrist and slapped it. Ye Jing's hand went numb and the mop fell to the ground instantly.
With her hands pinched, Ye Jing's heart was shocked, but her mind worked very quickly. She raised her foot and was about to kick Ye Shimian's crotch hard, but he slightly dodged and avoided it.
Having lost the initiative, Ye Jing no longer made any rash moves. Ye Shimian had a gloomy look on his face. He dragged Ye Jing out and threw her onto the bed, saying in a sinister tone, "Jing'er, you are really disobedient now. You were not like this before. It must be that damn man who led you astray! I don't allow you to disobey me like this. I gave you everything. You are mine and you can only obey me. Remember!"
As he spoke, his eyes began to become crazy. As he spoke, he took the charging cable from the table and walked towards her.
