Chapter 168 Terror in the middle of the night
"exist……"

Lingxi had just said one word when her stomach began to churn again, and she quickly covered her mouth.

Minghui suddenly raised his hand.

"I know, I know. There is a washroom, a toilet, and a place to wash clothes over there. I saw a lot of people washing clothes there." Pei Yanning had taken Minghui there, and Minghui remembered it very clearly.

Lingxi just thought that the sound was heavenly, and didn't care that she could actually wash on the balcony at home, so why should she go out.

As long as she can sleep now...

"Nanny, I want to sleep."

The old lady came back to her senses: "Go quickly, go quickly, grandma, find it yourself."

Lingxi hummed, and walked back to the room, finally sitting next to the bed. She didn't have time to pull the quilt, use the pillow, or even take off her shoes.

Lingxi just closed her eyes.

He felt groggy and lost consciousness in a moment.

Lingxi herself didn't know whether she fell asleep or fainted.

At lunch time, she was woken up from bed by Pei Yanning. At that time, she might have felt better because of her sleep. Although she was still a little uncomfortable, she was able to eat normally.

Lingxi spent three days like this.

At night, I was so careful that I was afraid of waking up the old lady. Not long after I fell asleep, she called me to eat. I dealt with all the questions from her while feeling dizzy and dazed, and then I fell asleep in the afternoon...

Lingxi was clearly aware that her condition was getting worse day by day.

and--

Because the old lady and Minghui were both there, Lingxi had very little time alone, and she never touched cakes, pastries, goat milk, etc. again.

Most of the time, I can't think of anything else except sleeping.

Lingxi's body doesn't allow it, but she actually has no problem with the old lady.

The old lady was kind-hearted. She was already very old, but she still worked hard to help clean the house, do the laundry and cook. There was no reason for a junior like her to be so picky.

Furthermore……

Gu Si will be back in a few days, and the old lady will leave and stay for only a few days.

This is the home of the old lady’s biological son, and Lingxi doesn’t want her to feel uncomfortable living here for the next few days.

In this way, Lingxi counted the days and persevered.

That night, the sky was gray and pitch dark in the room.

Lingxi was woken up by the suffocation again in the middle of the night. She was just about to sit up and go to the bathroom as usual. However, as soon as she moved, a dark shadow pounced over and grabbed her neck fiercely.

"Ahhh, scare me, scare me, I'll strangle you to death!"

This voice is vicious!
"what--"

Lingxi screamed subconsciously, and was so frightened that she lost six of her seven souls.

Under normal circumstances, when people are frightened, they subconsciously hide in a place away from danger.

Lingxi is no exception.

However, after dodging like this, I got stuck.

There was some space between the bed and the window. When Gu Si was at home, Lingxi usually walked outside or was carried by Gu Si.

After the old lady came, she always turned sideways and walked through the gap between the bed and the window. Her belly was above the bed and she couldn't squeeze in.

But now she was stuck in the middle.

The shadow's hand missed and he stumbled onto the bed.

When Pei Yanning heard the noise and rushed over, he saw that the old lady seemed to be frightened as well. However, Lingxi was somehow stuck in the gap between the bed and the wall on the other side of the window, her face filled with tears.

The old lady was lying there in a strange posture.

Pei Yanning didn't care about his biological mother for the time being. He hurriedly went to the bed and carried the person out. He didn't even realize that he was so anxious that he even forgot to wear his shoes.

"Be good, it's okay, don't be afraid, don't be afraid when daddy comes!"

Pei Yanning coaxed him like this, but the next moment he felt something warm under his hands, and his body subconsciously froze. Pei Yanning, who always took everything lightly, remained calm, and planned everything, turned pale instantly.

"Be good, don't be afraid, I have daddy."

He tried to coax Lingxi, but his movements were very stiff. He raised his hand, pulled the quilt and was about to wrap the person up and send her to the hospital.

And with this action, he also saw his own hands.

Not blood!

Pei Yanning finally regained his breath at this moment.

He said...

It's been less than six months.

Pei Yanning, who has always been extremely intelligent, instantly understood what was going on.

He kept comforting her.

Lingxi was still in shock, but she was no longer afraid after Pei Yanning came. At this time, Lingxi realized that just now...

It's her milk.

Lingxi's heart was pounding, and she lay in Pei Yanning's arms, not wanting to talk.

She couldn't even remember her current miserable state.

Only by holding Pei Yanning tightly did I feel at ease.

Pei Yanning held the person in his arms and looked around, wanting to change Lingxi's clothes, but it was a little inconvenient for him to do so, and Lingxi was still in shock.

The sound insulation of the tube building is really poor. When Lingxi screamed, the whole floor could vaguely hear some noise. Several families living nearby, especially Zeng Jiawang who was in charge of security, ran out barefoot with his clothes draped over his shoulders and bumped into Jin Qingyao who was also draped over his shoulders.

Jin Qingyao knocked on the door directly.

"What's the matter?"

"It's okay, I was just scared."

This is Pei Yanning’s answer.

Lingxi's current condition is not suitable for meeting outsiders.

Zeng Jiawang was relieved when he heard this. He didn't think it was a big deal. No one said how scared he was. But it was dark and there was an old lady and a little boy in the house. Who knew if it was a naughty boy playing a prank in the middle of the night!
But Pei Yanning said everything was fine, so everyone dispersed.

Gu Si rushed back exhausted, only to be faced with this chaotic situation.

It was Minghui who opened the door for Gu Si. At this time, Minghui still had tears on his face, and looking at his pupils, he looked slightly frightened.

Gu Si didn't bother to comfort Minghui. He just rubbed his head and strode to the balcony.

Because Pei Yanning was trying to comfort Lingxi, he didn't even have time to turn on the lights. Only Minghui turned on the light in the living room. Gu Si turned on the light, but when he saw Lingxi's appearance, his expression suddenly changed.

You might not notice it if you watch her every day, but Gu Si found out at a glance that Lingxi's round and chubby little face had a pointed chin.

"what happened?"

He stepped forward and took Lingxi from Pei Yanning's arms and took Lingxi's pulse: "Overwork, lack of sleep, fear and palpitations..."

Gu Si was so angry that he laughed.

"What did you do? You can't even eat after you're full and then sleep and then eat again after you wake up..."

Lingxi had calmed down a lot thanks to Pei Yanning's comfort. Now that she saw Gu Si coming back, she felt happy but also guilty and aggrieved. She tugged at his clothes and snuggled into his arms.

She was in a mess at the moment, and Lingxi realized it belatedly and felt a little ashamed.

"Fourth brother..."

However, when Lingxi moved, Pei Yanning and Gu Si's eyes fell on the finger marks on her neck.

A storm was brewing in Pei Yanning's eyes.

He turned around to look at the old lady, who was in a trance, staring at her hands.

Pei Yanning took a deep breath, took the old lady out, and put her back in his own bedroom.

"You sleep in my room first, and let Lao Si change Lingxi's clothes."
