Chapter 138 The Conscious Little Puppet (24)
Jiang Ye's voice seemed to be blocked by an invisible barrier, and they seemed completely unable to sense his presence.
At the same time, his eyes gradually lost their light, and the last glimmer of light disappeared completely, and the whole world fell into endless darkness.
Zhu Guyun looked at Jiang Ye anxiously, watching him mutter to himself and his body shaking uncontrollably, his heart ached as if it were being stabbed by a knife.
He stretched out his arms without hesitation, hugged Jiang Ye tightly in his arms, and comforted him softly: "Don't be afraid, dear, I'm here! Everything will be fine."
Although Jiang Ye's voice was so soft that it was almost imperceptible, Zhu Guyun heard it clearly.
"No, please... It's so dark here, let me out..."
The voice was full of fear and helplessness, making Zhu Guyun's heart feel like it was sinking into an ice cellar.
Zhu Guyun tried to use puppet threads to probe Jiang Ye's inner world, hoping to find a solution to the problem from the root.
However, to his surprise, Jiang Ye's heart was completely closed at this moment, as if he had built an indestructible wall to isolate himself from everything in the outside world.
"do not want!"
Suddenly, Jiang Ye let out a terrified scream and his eyes suddenly opened.
Zhu Guyun quickly hugged him tighter and asked with concern: "What's wrong, Yeye? Did you have a nightmare?"
Jiang Ye raised his hand to wipe the sweat from his forehead and answered thoughtfully: "Nothing, just some old memories..."
His tone seemed a little dazed, as if he was still immersed in the dream he had just had.
Zhu Guyun just thought he was talking nonsense. After all, Jiang Ye had been by his side ever since he gained self-awareness. How could there be any so-called past events?
Perhaps this is just a temporary effect of a nightmare.
However, Zhu Guyun felt a little uneasy deep in his heart. He always felt that Jiang Ye seemed to be hiding some unknown secrets.
Jiang Ye's face was still frighteningly pale, as if all his vitality had been drained away, and he looked extremely weak.
Zhu Guyun looked at him worriedly, feeling distressed. Finally, he decided to let him have a good rest first so that he could recover some strength.
Zhu Guyun spoke softly, his voice extremely gentle and full of concern, and said, "Sleep a little longer, Yeye."
Jiang Ye nodded slightly upon hearing this and slowly closed his eyes, but his heart could not calm down no matter what, let alone fall asleep.
Seeing this, Zhu Guyun said no more. He just sat quietly beside the bed, staring at Jiang Ye silently, his eyes full of care and love.
Time passed minute by minute, and Jiang Ye opened his eyes several times. Every time he saw Zhu Guyun staring at him intently.
The affection and concentration in those eyes made him feel both at ease and a little overwhelmed.
Finally, Zhu Guyun sighed softly and broke the silence: "Since you can't sleep, then don't sleep."
Jiang Ye nodded again, leaned back slightly, and gently leaned on Zhu Guyun's shoulder.
After a moment of silence, he suddenly asked out of nowhere: "Why do you like me?"
There was a hint of doubt and confusion in his tone.
The question was so abrupt that even he himself found it a little strange.
However, Zhu Guyun didn't seem surprised. After a moment of hesitation, he answered with a smile.
"Do I need a reason to like someone? Maybe it's because of your kindness, bravery, or your unique charm... In short, from the first moment I saw you, I knew that you were the one I had been waiting for."
