Spirit In Dark Night - C95

I hurriedly forced myself to calm down. I didn’t want Qihai to see me so pale in fright.

Just as I was about to leave, the picture on my tombstone flashed out of the corner of my eye.

I stopped in my tracks and looked at the tombstone carefully.

On the tombstone, my picture continuously flickered like the light of a firefly, and by the light of that light, I could clearly see my picture blink at me, and even smile.

I suddenly felt my breathing quicken. Although this was my own photo, it was even more breathtaking.

Think about it, this is so weird. The picture on my own tombstone is smiling at me.

If this were to be leaked, no one would believe it, right?

I don’t even quite believe it. I even have a feeling that this might be my imagination.

However, just as I was about to convince myself that this was just an illusion, my mouth twitched in the photo and I took a step back.

I felt as if I had hit something soft on top of it.

I was even more frightened, thinking, Why are there so many strange things here? I anxiously turned my head to see what I had hit, but did not expect to meet Qihai’s gaze that was filled with love.

“Qihai, is that you?”

The moment I saw him, I suddenly felt completely relaxed in my heart. That kind of feeling was so intimate that it made me instantly feel safe.

“Yes, it’s me. How did you know I missed you?”

Qihai’s words surprised me for a moment, and I asked with some surprise, “What do you mean by that?”

“Idiot, look, I was thinking about you with all my might, but I didn’t expect you to appear in front of me. Don’t you know I was thinking about you?”

I heard him say something almost masochistic, and my face turned red.

“Are you serious?”

Qihai laughed, then looked at me, “I just want to know if it’s because you missed me that you’re here?”

There was a hint of seriousness in his words, and my face reddened even more. Actually, he was speaking from the bottom of his heart.

I hastily lowered my head. “Actually, it was because I missed you that I couldn’t wait to see you.”

“I know, I know. I actually miss you too.”

Qihai hugged me tightly, as if he was extremely intoxicated from it.

I tightly shut my eyes, quietly feeling the unique scent of tobacco on his body.

Frankly speaking, I really like this feeling, almost infatuated with it.

The smell of Qihai’s body smelled very good, and I didn’t know why I had such a hobby.

Since my back was facing him, I couldn’t see his expression. Qihai seemed to be in some pain, and he even looked to be struggling with himself.

He wanted to hug me more tightly, but his hands, which were resting on my shoulder, were trembling slightly. Then, he simply gave them a hug and let go.

I did not realize his abnormality, and was still intoxicated by his gentleness.

“How have you been lately?”

I realized that I had a lot of things I wanted to say to him, but when I saw his gentle and affectionate eyes, I was so nervous that I didn’t know what to say.

Qihai nodded and said, “I’m doing very well, what about you?”

I don’t know why, but after hearing his concerned words, I felt a lump in my throat. Suddenly, I remembered the soul-stirring scene from before.

When the He Bo had left and Qihai had appeared, wasn’t that a bit too much of a coincidence?

It was only suddenly that I had this thought.

“Why aren’t you happy again? Is there something wrong? ”

When Qihai saw that my face had become somewhat hurt, he couldn’t help but ask with a bit of heartache.

I told him what had happened.

Qihai seemed to be extremely shocked, “You said that He Bo made you do such a ridiculous thing just now?”

Qihai looked to be extremely astonished. Moreover, I can almost certain that his appearance just now was a coincidence! He wouldn’t have helped me without seeing what had just happened.

When I thought of this, I immediately felt relieved. I wasn’t that sad anymore.

“That’s right. I don’t know the reason for this, but He Bo won’t say anything if I don’t ask.”

Qihai seemed to be lost in thought. He was thinking about something, something that made me feel apprehensive.

So strange, after I told Qihai about what happened just now, he started to seem absent-minded, as if he had deep thoughts.

“Qihai, what’s wrong? Why does it seem like there’s something on my mind? ”

I gently pushed him and looked at him strangely. Wasn’t it fine just now? You even asked me if I was warm, talking and laughing, how did you become so sad and deep in the blink of an eye?

Qihai suddenly sobered up, as if he was trying to cover something up. “It’s nothing, I just think that He Bo’s actions are very strange, I just want you to not take advantage of him.”

My heart immediately warmed. So it turns out that Qihai was worried for me.

My depression was swept away.

There wasn’t much time left. Tathagata should be returning soon, right? Furthermore, being with the He Bo had taken up some time, and now he could only talk to Qihai for a short while.

I was a little disappointed. I finally found this place, but I couldn’t stay with him any longer. It was a pity to think about it.

Qihai seemed to have seen through my thoughts, “Don’t be like this, in the future, won’t we still have enough time to meet again?”

I nodded and forced a smile because I didn’t want him to worry about me.

Seeing me smile, Qihai hugged me again.

When I saw Qihai’s passionate gaze, I felt like I was drunk. Qihai slowly approached me, as though he was moved by his gaze.

My heart was pounding, and I closed my eyes in fright.

I thought Qihai wanted to do something to me, but after waiting for a while, I didn’t find anything.

I couldn’t help but think, was I wrong?

When I opened my eyes, I found Qihai staring at me with rapt attention, as if he was looking at a precious antique.

“Ruxue, I don’t want to do anything to you at this moment, because I love you. I don’t want to hurt you at this moment, and I want to save all the beautiful things for last.”

I am a little disappointed in my heart. Don’t tell me I want Qihai to do something to me?

Qihai is always considering things for me. This kind of him, is truly a good man to love.

Most of the men nowadays only wanted to take advantage of women, but Qihai was an exception.

This kind of man was like a rare animal now. It was simply too rare.

“Mm, I know. You are a righteous man, so I will listen to whatever you say.”

I smirked mischievously as he seemed to have a deep doting look in his eyes.

“It’s getting late, let’s go back. If Tathagata finds out, we’ll be in trouble.”

Qihai’s expression suddenly became grave. When he said those words, I saw a trace of reluctance in his eyes.

How could I bear to part with him?

“But I don’t know when we’ll meet again.”

I really didn’t want to leave him. Before I could properly look at him, I was already facing separation.

“Be good, it’s almost time for Tathagata to return.”

Although Qihai said it calmly, I felt that something was wrong when I heard it. How did Qihai know that Tathagata had left? He seemed to know quite a lot. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have known that Tathagata would return soon.

Could it be that Qihai had been secretly observing every single movement of Tathagata’s?

Although I couldn’t understand in my heart, I still pretended that I didn’t notice anything, because I didn’t want the Tathagata incident to affect my relationship with Qihai.

“Alright, I’ll listen to you, but how am I supposed to go back?”

This is the most important thing. I was brought here by the He Bo, but if I go back, I reckon that I won’t be able to find the way.

Qihai said, “Have you forgotten how you went back the last few times?”

Of course, I won’t forget that I was always sent back without him knowing. Is this also the case for this time around?

I silently nodded and looked at him. Sure enough, he said, “Close your eyes.”

Naturally, I obediently closed my eyes. Then, in that instant, I felt as though everything had stopped. After that, I opened my eyes and found that I was already standing at the entrance of Tathagata’s room.

I laugh mockingly at myself. The man I love actually sent me to another man’s room. What is this?

As soon as he pushed the door open, Tathagata entered.

I couldn’t help but to secretly feel fearful. There was only a minute difference between the two of them, wasn’t there?

This Qihai is too godly!

It seemed like he knew the whereabouts of Tathagata like the back of his hand, or else his calculations would not be so accurate.

However, these are not things that I can handle. Let them settle their own matters.

I’m just a woman, and I seem to be powerless against these things.

“You seem to have just returned? Where did you go so late? ”

When Tathagata saw how neatly I was dressed, he couldn’t help but look at me in confusion.

In my heart, I was panicking, as if I had a guilty conscience from being a thief.

Fortunately, I immediately adjusted my mood and casually said, “I heard a cat meowing just now, so I went out to take a look.”

“Cat meow?” Tathagata seemed to be stunned by my words.

I had to go on with the lie. “Yes, I did hear it, and that’s strange. Come out and see it.”
