Xu Yingying woke up after a long sleep. It was already dark, and the doors and windows in the room were closed. It was very dark and a bit stuffy.
"Lian'er."
Xu Yingying called out weakly, feeling a little unhappy. Where was Lian'er if she wasn't by her side at this time?
Lian'er didn't respond. Xu Yingying pushed herself up and tried to sit up. At this time, a hoarse voice suddenly came from the darkness: "Are you awake?"
Xu Yingying was so frightened that she fell back. After taking a closer look, she found someone sitting at the table.
It¡¯s Li Hechao.
Xu Yingying breathed a sigh of relief, then became uneasy again.
"Master Hou, why don't you light the lamp?"
Xu Yingying asked softly. Because the light in the room was too dark, she couldn't see the expression on Li Hechao's face, and the uneasiness in her heart was amplified.
Li Hechao sat at the table without moving and said, "I see you are sleeping soundly, and I can't bear to wake you up."
This explanation was still very warm and doting. Xu Yingying's uneasiness dissipated a little, and she put on a sad tone and said: "I failed to protect our child. I wish I could sleep like this for a long time and stay with the child all the time. But when I think about it, When I leave, the Marquis will be left alone again, and I can't bear to leave. The Marquis has been alone for so many years, and it is really cruel of me to do this."
Xu Yingying started to cry as she spoke, wiping her tears with a silk handkerchief. Li Hechao asked in a warm voice, "Did you dream about that child?"
Xu Yingying immediately said: "Of course there is. I dreamed that the child was wearing the clothes I made for him. He was also riding the wooden horse that Mr. Hou bought for him, and he kept calling Mr. Hou daddy."
"Really?" Li Hechao's tone became lighter, as if he had also seen such a scene. Xu Yingying took the opportunity to say, "Yes, this child is very smart, and he looks a lot like Mr. Hou."
"Oh? So he looks like me?"
Li Hechao asked back, his tone was a bit strange, but because he couldn't see his expression, Xu Yingying didn't pay too much attention and continued: "Yes, it looks very much like Mr. Hou. In the dream, others said that he was carved out of the same mold as Mr. Hou." Woolen cloth."
After the words fell, Li Hechao stood up and walked to the bed step by step with a cane.
There was no light. After he stood up, his figure merged with the huge shadow, which made him feel more oppressive than usual. The sound of the cane hitting the wooden board was also unreasonably frightening.
Xu Yingying couldn't help but said: "Master Hou, I'm already awake, so I'd better light the lamp."
As soon as he finished speaking, his throat was pinched.
After years of idleness at home, the calluses on Li Hechao's hands still haven't gone away and are very rough. Every time she is held by such a pair of hands, Xu Yingying will have the illusion that she is actually being held by Gu Yanting, but now her neck is being pinched, Xu Yingying only felt scared.
The Marquis is going to kill her!
As soon as this idea came up, Xu Yingying panicked, but amid the overwhelming fear, there was still a trace of grievance.
"Don't you love her so much? How could you want to kill her?"
Xu Yingying forced herself to calm down and cried: "Master Hou, what did Song Wan say to alienate our relationship? Song Wan is the most insidious and cunning person. Master Hou must not believe her words. When she was in Tingwei Mansion, she That¡¯s how it hurt me.¡±
I was really scared, Xu Yingying¡¯s tears fell quite sincerely.
Li Hechao came closer and asked, "I'm in a bad mood right now. You'd better tell me honestly who the adulterer is!"
Boom!
Xu Yingying¡¯s head was blown to a blank. (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
