Chapter 3: Nightmares
Sighing, Li Rui carried her to the bathroom, brushed her teeth with her eyes closed, and then washed her face with warm water before sending her back to the bedroom.
After covering her with the quilt and gently imprinting a kiss on her forehead, Li Rui returned to his bedroom and began to think about his plans for tomorrow.
If he can't activate the system tomorrow, then he will have to sell the house he lives in now and take Xiao Wei to the Mayo Clinic in the United States to see a doctor.
It is the most advanced hospital in the world, with the most brilliant doctors, and it is also his last ray of hope.
It's just that Mayo's threshold is not so easy to enter, and the rich people all over the world want to get in, and making an appointment for a year and a half is a basic operation, and he doesn't know if he can successfully take Xiao Wei to the doctor.
"Tomorrow!"
Li Rui took a deep breath, the cold light in his eyes was solemn.
Clenched his fists fiercely, his slender fingers turned white, and he felt the surging power in his body, Li Rui continued to do psychological construction for himself.
I'm strong! I can win! Don't keep your hand!
Do everything in one's power!
Kill!
With his sister's smiling face in his mind, Li Rui firmly engraved the accumulated killing intent in his heart.
Suddenly, a call from outside the door broke his state.
"Brother, are you asleep?"
"Not yet, what's wrong?"
"Can I come in?"
"Come in. ”
The door was opened a crack, and Li Wei came in with her ragdoll puppy in her arms, staring at him pitifully.
"What's wrong?"
"I can't sleep, I'm scared ......"
"Didn't you sleep soundly just now?"
Li Rui smiled and scratched her little nose.
"As soon as you leave, I feel so cold, the room is so horrible, brother, I'm scared, I want to sleep with you. ”
"Huh. ”
Li Rui remembered that when he was a child, he was afraid of the dark, so he didn't dare to go to the toilet all night.
It seems that children all over the world are the same.
"Come in. ”
Lifting the cover, Li Wei cheered and quickly got into his arms.
Pulling an arm as a pillow, Li Wei's back was tightly pressed against Li Rui's chest, and then Li Rui's other hand was pulled to his stomach, and the whole person seemed to be wrapped.
Skillfully finding his favorite posture, endless warmth and security wrapped his heart, Li Wei showed a happy smile.
My brother will protect me, I'm not alone......
"Hey, hey. ”
"Laughing at what?"
"My brother's skin is so smooth and fragrant. ”
The face rubbed against Li Rui's arm, and Li Wei made a whirring sound like a kitten.
Li Rui bent his elbow back and touched her hair with a smile.
What good smell can a rough man who only uses shampoo and soap from childhood to adulthood taste?
"By the way, brother, Sister Luo Li came here again and bought me a cake, but unfortunately you weren't at home at the time. ”
"Oh, did you thank them?"
"Thank you. ”
The brother and sister chatted about trivial matters in life without a match, and soon Li Wei's voice became smaller and smaller, and he became more and more confused.
Li Rui couldn't sleep at all, stirring Li Wei's hair, looking at the dull hair like dead grass, his heart was even more panicked.
Judging from the small actions in daily life, Li Wei is extremely insecure.
She always likes to put her back to her chest, like a little beast in a terrifying dark jungle, looking around with a wary eye.
The only thing she trusts and can rely on defenselessly is herself......
It seems that the blow of the death of her parents has left indelible scars in her young heart.
With a sigh, Li Rui imprinted a kiss on her hair.
"Sleep, you'll be fine tomorrow. ”
"Woo. ”
Li Wei answered in a daze, and soon fell asleep.
Forcing himself to close his eyes, Li Rui's consciousness continued to fall, and bizarre dreams began to occupy his mind.
Crunch~
Suddenly, a soft sound woke up his vague consciousness, and he opened his eyes as if he were not dreaming, and there was a rustling sound outside the bedroom door.
The surroundings were terrifyingly quiet, and there was an eerie atmosphere flowing in the air.
In a trance, it seemed that someone was walking outside the bedroom.
A burglar in the house?
Li Rui tried hard to be sober, but he couldn't concentrate, and his consciousness and senses were like a curtain and he was groggy.
What's even more terrifying is that he can't even move his body!
Or did you inhale a narcotic gas?
A stream of cool air rushed from the tail vertebrae to the heavenly spirit cover.
The surroundings were too dim, and Li Rui stared at the bedroom door, raising his guard.
Quack quack~
The doorknob didn't move, and the bedroom door was slowly pushed open as if it wasn't locked.
Li Rui felt goosebumps instantly fill his body.
In the palm-sized gap, a cold chill flowed in, and Li Rui only saw endless darkness through the crack in the door.
But there seemed to be a pair of strange and vicious eyes staring at him in the darkness, as if real malice was almost overwhelming him.
There was a faint stench in the air, and Li Rui struggled to sit up, but his body was as if it wasn't his, and he couldn't move a finger.
Quack quack~
The crack in the door opened wider and wider, and Li Rui's cold sweat soaked the quilt.
Is anyone coming in?
The dim light seemed to be unable to penetrate the darkness outside the door, as if beyond the bedroom was not the familiar living room, but the terrifying Senluo Hell.
Even if you try to see the outside clearly, there is only eerie darkness in your sight.
But unexpectedly, no one came in through the open door, and the sound of rustling slowly disappeared.
Li Rui's tense nerves were just about to relax a little, when suddenly an undetectable voice exploded in his ears like thunder.
Someone at my bedside!
The cold hair stood on end, and Li Rui tried hard to raise his head, but the inexplicable horror made him unable to even blink.
Suddenly, a pair of cold hands reached into the quilt and grabbed at his chest.
Yes!!!!
Li Rui suddenly opened his eyes, but what he saw was a sunny bedroom.
Do you have nightmares?
Li Rui felt soaked in cold sweat, and his muscles were a little collapsed from the long-term tightness.
Lying on the bed and taking a deep breath for a long time, Li Rui relieved himself.
Last night's nightmare was too real, completely different from the illogical nightmares of the past.
The tip of his nose still seems to have a faint stench lingering around him.
Suddenly, Li Rui was stunned.
He remembered what it was!
The smell of rotting corpses!
Trembling involuntarily, Li Rui frowned and cursed: "What the hell is really stepping on a horse!"
Shaking his head and throwing the bad mood out of his head, Li Rui glanced at Li Wei, who was sleeping soundly in his arms, and carefully climbed out of the bed.
Walking to the bedroom door, Li Rui suddenly stopped.
This ...... It was locked up last night, right?
Why is it hidden now?
Could it be that Xiao Wei didn't close it properly when he came in?
With an uncomfortable feeling in his heart, Li Rui entered the bathroom with a black face.
"Ma De, I'm going to fight to the death at night, it's really unlucky to have such a dream!"
