She clutched his neck tightly, her face covered in tears and sweat.

Nian lie hugged her back tightly and patted her gently. it's just a dream. Ning Qing, don't be afraid.

Ning Qing's heart clenched.

That kind of fear and terror was too real, as if she had really experienced it.

Nian lie, Nian lie.

She repeated his name over and over again, and her nasal voice was obvious.

It's fine, it's fine now.

He didn't know what else he could do other than comfort her.

What did you dream of? he asked after ning Qing had calmed down.

She withdrew from his arms and her eyes flickered.

Nian Xi held her shoulders and wanted her to look at him.

Don't lie, ning Qing. Tell me, who did you dream of?

Ning Qing was still trembling, but her heart settled a little under his firm question and affirmative gaze.

The hospital's operating table is saying that someone wants to abort my child, she said.

She was a little confused. She lowered her head and covered her stomach, feeling the fetus that she could not feel yet.

Therefore, she didn't see the sudden change in Nian lie's expression.

He stared at her in fear, and it felt like a fish bone was stuck in his throat. The pain was unbearable.

Don't be afraid, it's just a dream.

But Yingluo

This dream was too real.

Nian Xi held her shoulders tightly, his tone firm.

I will protect you and the child.

Trust me,

The dust settled.

Perhaps it was because his expression was too determined, or perhaps it was because she was too fragile and needed someone to rely on.

At that moment, ning Qing nodded.

She believed his words.

Nian lie's facial features softened, and he caressed the top of her head. it's still early. You should sleep a little longer.

Alright, he said.

Ning Qing took a few deep breaths and lay back down under his comfort.

I'm here, don't be afraid.

She heard his promise before she closed her eyes.

The inexplicable fear in her heart slowly faded away.

Nian Xi pulled the blanket over her.

He placed his large palm on her lower abdomen and patted it gently.

After a while, the woman's even breathing could be heard.

He looked at her slightly pale face and a few strands of hair that were wet on her forehead.

His dark eyes were surging with emotions.

It blended in with the night sky outside the window.

Nian lie was no longer sleepy.

He only looked at her without blinking, afraid that she would wake up from her dream again.

Fortunately, ning Qing was quiet for the rest of the night.

When she woke up in the morning, she opened her eyes and saw the man's tired face. She was in a daze for a long time.

Nian lie's expression was gentle. you're awake.

Ning Qing looked at the dark circles under his eyes and the obvious blood vessels in his eyes. She wanted to say something but stopped.

Nian Xi got out of bed. if you're awake, then get up. Let's go downstairs to eat something.

He walked to the bathroom and returned a few minutes later.

His short black hair was wet with water droplets, and when he came to her side, it was still cold.

Why didn't you go to the office? ning Qing asked.

The light in Nian Xi's eyes flickered, but she said in a normal tone, I've been a little tired recently. I want to rest for a while and keep you company.

He picked up the dry towel on the back of the chair and started to rub his hair.

Water droplets sprayed everywhere and fell on ning Qing's face.

It was slightly cold.

Her expression was complicated. you didn't sleep last night.

Nian lie paused for a moment before he continued.

He gave a soft hmm.

Ning Qing did not feel good.

I'm just afraid that you'll wake me up again and make me unable to sleep, he added.

Ning Qing pursed her lips and said, I'm sorry.

Her face was pinched.

The man's reprimanding voice fell.

you always like to smacked your lips. What kind of habit is this?

Ning Qing frowned. Wasn't he being a little too nosy?

She didn't want to be so intimate with him.

So, she endured her trembling heart and waved his hand away.

He got out of bed and went to the bathroom to wash up.

Nian lie looked at his empty hand, his eyes dimming.
