My wrist hurts so much. It's been restrained by something for too long, and it seems like I'm about to lose consciousness.
Pei Xiqing opened his eyes belatedly and just as he was about to stand up, he found that he couldn't move his wrist.
Look up.
There was a belt around his wrists, tied straight to the head of the bed.
She untied her belt with a shudder of fear.
I found that there was a knot on it.
She was actually a little annoyed, but she was too weak to even react with anger. She could only shout into the lighted bathroom, "If you don't come over and untie me, I'll be mad."
Two minutes later, the man came out of the bathroom wearing a new bathrobe and a belt tied at a leisurely pace.
He was covered in cold moisture and bent over to untie his belt.
Pei Xiqing pushed him away and was about to get out of bed to go to the bathroom.
His legs went limp and he sat back down too weakly.
Duan Xiaolin bent down and picked her up.
Pei Xiqing bit his chin hard.
"I need to go to the bathroom! If you go any slower, I won't be able to hold it anymore!
He lowered his eyes: "It's not like I haven't soiled the mattress before. I can clean it up."
"Shut up!"
Pei Xiqing was carried into the bathroom and hurriedly sat on the toilet. Seeing that he was still standing there, she couldn't help but blush: "Get out of here, I want to clean up myself."
Duan Xiaolin had brought in the cigarettes from the study room at some point, raised his hand and smoked one, his eyes still fixed on her with a lingering green gaze: "Don't drop them later. I'm afraid you've dropped them in every corner of this bathroom."
Pei Xiqing covered her face and stayed still. "Please help me run the water. I want to take a shower. Don't make it too hot."
The man smiled, took a puff of his cigarette, and filled the bathtub with water.
She flushed the toilet behind her, slowly pulled her skirt up to her legs, and walked slowly towards the bathtub.
Before I took two steps, he hugged my legs.
She was not wearing anything under her nightgown, which he had mercifully put on her casually. Then he touched her legs, and Pei Xiqing couldn't stand steadily at all and fell directly into his arms.
Duan Xiaolin half-knelt on the ground, catching her body steadily, raised his hand slightly, and crushed the cigarette.
When he carried the person into the bathtub, his hands naturally sank into the water.
Pei Xiqing was a little resistant.
Because his grip was too strong.
The sense of existence is also strong.
She quickly said, "I'll wash it myself... I'll wash it myself..."
Duan Xiaolin's hands were covered in foam. "Turn around, let me see the Qiong Snake Totem."
"Oh..." Pei Xiqing did as he was told.
Her body was no longer covered in corpse spots, and was now dazzlingly white. Her skin was delicate and covered in red marks from pinching his knuckles. Duan Xiaolin quickly scanned the marks he had left, confirming the totem before speaking in a hoarse voice, "It seems that a little exercise can make the totem more obvious."
"Is it obvious?" She wanted to look back at her back, but could only see a little bit.
She asked, "How obvious is it? Bring me a mirror..."
Duan Xiaolin took out a mirror from the drawer of the sink and gave it to her.
Pei Xiqing took it and really started to study it.
Seeing that the pattern on the back was indeed much darker, especially the peach blossoms, which looked like they were in full bloom, she swallowed her saliva and said, "It's burning me to death."
The man also said, "Yes."
Pei Xiqing threw the mirror to him: "Huh."
Duan Xiaolin stood up and said, "If you keep humming, I won't go out for the next day."
Pei Xiqing bit her lip and lowered her head, her hair also soaked in the warm water. When she moved slightly, it wrapped around her snow-white shoulders like seaweed.
There was a sudden loud noise outside the window.
Suddenly, several dazzling flashes of lightning appeared in the originally quiet sky.
It seemed as if it was going to split the sky apart.
The crackling sound of lightning was extremely thrilling.
A few seconds later, accompanied by deafening thunder, heavy rain suddenly fell, making the windows bang.
The storm came without warning.
All the safety measures in the villa were absolutely protective. The windows were closed and not a drop of rain could seep in, but she could still feel the terrifying earthquake outside.
Duan Xiaolin narrowed his eyes and stared at the rainstorm without saying a word.
Pei Xiqing leaned towards him.
"It's so fast, it feels like we don't have to wait two months..."
This was the first time she had seen such heavy rain.
Such a rain carries a power that makes people tremble with fear, as if it can easily wipe out every trace of human existence.
It was gloomy and cold. One didn't need to feel it to know how bitterly cold the wind was outside at that moment.
The man took a blanket from the bedroom, wrapped her in it and carried her out.
When he put her on the bed, he kissed her wet hair and said, "I'll blow dry you first."
Pei Xiqing nodded.
She put on a new nightgown.
Sitting on the edge of the bed, she quietly let the man blow dry her hair bit by bit.
After blowing for about ten minutes, the communicator that the man placed on the table began to ring non-stop.
Pei Xiqing asked, "Is it Brother Qiu Chao? It's raining so hard outside, the base should be affected as well..."
He held out the communicator, "It's Franlon."
"I must be looking for you." Pei Xiqing scratched his hair and said, "I'll go with you."
