Chapter 215: The heart is broken
Chapter 215 The heart is broken
He tried every means to comfort her, but it was of little use. She was drowning in the nightmare of the past, unable to see any light.
Li Lei became anxious and hugged her tighter. Regardless of the smelly blood on her body, he just kept saying: "It's okay, Xiao Ling, I'm here, I'm here."
Outside the trap, someone lowered the ladder.
The people above did not know what was going on inside. Li Shiyuan, the teacher of several children, thought that Xia Ling was simply frightened and did not take it to heart. He shouted towards the entrance of the cave: "Master Lei, bring these people up."
Li Lei raised his head and glanced at the ladder: "Change to the hanging basket and come down." With Xiao Ling's current condition, how could she climb up? In the dim light, the girl in her arms was covered in blood, washed away by tears and looked extremely ugly, as if she had crawled out of Asura Purgatory. He had never seen Xiao Ling like this before. He was so distressed that it was hard to breathe. He wiped her with his sleeve, but he couldn't wipe it clean.
Li Shiyuan frowned. The girl in the trap was too weak to climb up the ladder, right?
There were some adults from the Li family gathered around, as well as other children who came after hearing the news. They were also very disdainful at this time. I wonder if this girl really has no fighting ability, or is she pretending to be weak in front of Li Lei? Let alone the Li family, there is no reason why even an ordinary passerby on the street cannot climb up the ladder, right?
You are so squeamish, who are you showing off to?
The Li family is a wealthy family that lives in the street and licks blood with their swords. They can't bear to see a young lady who can fall down at the slightest wind.
At this time, some people were already whispering: "Isn't it appropriate for her to be Brother Lei's girlfriend?"
Many people nodded.
Li Lei is a young grandson who is likely to inherit the family business in the future. His girlfriend is likely to be the future matron of the Li family. How can he choose someone who can even climb a pit using a hanging basket?
The hanging basket was not placed on top, and Li Lei in the trap was already anxious: "Hurry up! If you don't put the hanging basket, I will make you all look good!"
There was real anger in his voice, which startled the people above, right? Just because of such a delicate young lady pretending to be weak, such a trivial matter? It had been years since I had seen Li Lei get really angry.
However, when they saw that he was really angry, the people above did not dare to neglect him.
They all know how scary Li Lei is. Even though he usually smiles and seems to have a good temper, when he was ruthless and ruthless, he was enough to make anyone's legs weak. They'd rather stir up trouble, really.
The hanging basket was quickly lowered.
Li Lei carefully picked up Xia Ling, stepped into the hanging basket, and asked the people above to lift them out.
As soon as they stepped on the ground, everyone was stunned. The girl was crying miserably in Li Lei's arms. The nails on her ten fingers were curled up, and the flesh and blood were **** and miserable.
She wasn't pretending to be weak, but was she really scared, that's why she twisted her fingers like this?
Several children looked at each other.
“Hey,” Li Xiaolong tugged at the corner of Li Xiaoxing’s clothes, “Do you think she is afraid of the dark?”
Li Xiaoxing was also a little frightened. His fingers were connected to his heart. It must be very painful to be injured like this. She felt vaguely uneasy, but when she thought about it, she became even more disdainful: "Afraid of the dark? Our three-year-old child in the Li family is not afraid of the dark! Whether she is pretending or real, it is all useless. You have no right to be with Uncle Lei!”
Li Lei did not hear the conversation between the two children.
At this moment, all his thoughts were on Xia Ling. Under the bright sunshine outside, he saw her appearance more clearly. The injuries on her hands were so serious that he simply did not dare to think about the panic and despair she encountered inside. "Call the doctor!" He hugged her and strode towards his yard.
The doctor arrived quickly and conducted a preliminary examination on her. Except for her fingers, there was no external injury. But Xia Ling was still trembling and crying in his arms, her eyes were empty and ethereal, she was muttering something vaguely in her mouth, and her tears couldn't stop falling, as if she was being choked by something terrible.
"I think Ms. Ye's mental condition is unstable. How about injecting her with a sedative?" the doctor suggested.
Li Lei coaxed the girl in his arms softly. Hearing this, he shook his head. Sedatives have side effects, and he would rather spend more time comforting her and making her truly feel safe than harming her body for the sake of temporary convenience.
He held her in his arms and asked the doctor to clean and bandage her fingers briefly before ordering him to leave.
They were the only two people left in Leiming Courtyard.
Er Mao came closer and looked at her with a pair of amber eyes with some concern.
Li Lei heard clearly what she was muttering in a low voice: "Don't...let me go...blood...a lot of blood..."
Her whole body was soaked with blood, and her originally plain blue sweater had turned bright red. Li Lei frowned, took her to the bathroom, and put her into the bathtub.
His bathtub is as big as half a room, and it is filled with hot spring water nearby. Once you enter, you will feel comfortable and relaxed. The gentle water washed their bodies and clothes. After a while, the originally clear bathtub was dyed blood red. After a while, the red gradually faded and returned to its original clear color.
Xia Ling's body is no longer shaking so much, and her tears are gradually drying up, but she is still muttering, "Blood, blood..."
Li Lei frowned and washed her face and hands on the edge of the pool. He looked at the blood-stained clothes on her body and felt troubled. In the bath, their bodies were very close, and he could clearly feel the exquisite lines of her body, like a beautiful and soft flower vine, teasing his heartstrings faintly.
He took a deep breath, restrained himself, and sat down in the shallow water with her in his arms.
"Xiao Ling, be good," he said, "There's no blood anymore. You'll be fine after taking a bath. Just sit down and don't move. I'll find someone to help you take a bath, okay?" He really couldn't take off her hands. Clothes, I'm afraid that I will do something impulsive if I can't help myself.
The warm pool water was thick and her body was next to his. He felt that he couldn't bear it anymore and would go crazy if he stayed there for another second.
But Xia Ling held his hand tightly: "Don't go, I'm afraid..." She was confused and couldn't recognize who the man in front of her was. She only felt that there was a hazy light in the boundless blood and darkness. This man was Being in the halo, so warm and bright, she couldn't help but rely on it.
“Don’t go...” She was about to cry again.
Li Lei took a deep breath, and then took another deep breath, and used all his willpower to tell himself to be calm and restrained, so as not to just throw her into the pool and eat her up. He wanted to push her away, but she looked at him pleadingly with tears in her eyes, which made his last bit of determination vanish into thin air, and he had no strength to pull away.
what to do?
Li Lei's heart was broken. He had never encountered such a dilemma since he was a child. If Xiao Ling was still conscious, she would definitely not be willing to be exposed to him in this situation... Their first time, no matter what, it was... Save it for a romantic night in a beautifully decorated room…
Wait, stop, what is he thinking about? !
