After rebirth, I kidnapped the sickly Dugong

Wen Baizhi didn't argue with him about who was right or wrong.

She stroked his hair and soothed him.

"Are you feeling better?" she asked.

Si Jiu didn't really want to talk at the moment.

He just wanted to stay quietly in her arms.

But he didn't want her to worry, so he nodded in her arms.

Wen Baizhi took the lantern she brought back and moved closer to Si Jiu.

"Luckily, when I left, Cuizhi saw that it was getting dark, so she told me to take a lantern with me, otherwise it would still be pitch black here."

She knew that if she came back, she would definitely go to see Si Jiu's condition first.

After seeing Si Jiu, he would definitely stick to me and not let me move out.

Then she might not be able to light the lamp.

But fortunately, we still have this lantern.

Even if it is just a small light, it can at least give people hope.

What she didn't know was the moment she pushed the door open.

Si Jiu didn't actually look at the lantern, let alone notice the light it emitted.

All he saw was Wen Baizhi.

Wen Baizhi is his light now.

Irreplaceable light.

The two of them stayed on the ground like this for a while.

Until Si Jiu suddenly remembered that Wen Baizhi might not be able to bear sitting on the ground like this.

Then he carefully pulled her sleeve.

Wen Baizhi knew what he meant.

"Do you feel you've had enough rest and can get up?" she asked.

Si Jiu nodded, but still didn't say anything.

Wen Baizhi moved the lantern aside and carefully helped him up.

After Si Jiu stood up, Wen Baizhi held his waist with one hand and held the lantern with the other.

"I'll take you to the bed first. You can rest there for a while. I'll go over and light the lamp."

Si Jiu agreed.

It was not until Wen Baizhi lit no less than ten lamps that the whole room was finally bright.

She took another lamp and placed it at the head of their bed.

Si Jiu's eyes kept following her figure.

Wen Baizhi then sat down next to him.

Si Jiu knew that she would definitely find out something after he behaved so out of control tonight.

She will find that she is afraid of the dark.

I am afraid of the dark and I cry a lot.

I'm not feeling well again.

Always making her worry and anxious.

Si Jiu now feels that he is completely useless.

There was nothing about her that would make Wen Baizhi like her.

No, not like.

He never dared to hope that Wen Baizhi would like him.

He doesn't deserve it.

Perhaps, there was no point that would allow her to look at him.

He is so terrible.

Just thinking about these things now makes him cry again.

He is really disappointing.

No one would be willing to stay with such a despicable eunuch like him.

The more he thought about it, the more aggrieved he felt, and the more desperate he felt.

Finally, a tear fell from his eyes and dripped onto the back of his hand held in front of him.

Wen Baizhi also saw that tear.

She sat beside him and asked, "Are you feeling uncomfortable anywhere else?"

God, she hasn't even asked herself if she is afraid of the dark yet.

Si Jiu thought that she must have known the answer to this question, which was why she didn't ask.

He's really, really bad.

More and more tears fell from his eyes.

Until Wen Baizhi sighed and hugged him in her arms.

"Why are you crying again?"

Although the words were accusatory, the tone was full of heartache and reluctance.

Si Jiu's head was pressed against her chest.

Her heartbeat fell into her ears.

"I'm just, just a little sad." Si Jiu answered with a nasal tone in her arms.

Wen Baizhi touched his back from top to bottom over and over again: "I know you are afraid of the dark."

She finally said it.

As soon as these words were spoken, Si Jiu's body in her arms instantly stiffened.

Wen Baizhi hugged him tighter.

Si Jiu said intermittently: "How did you know?"

Wen Baizhi made an excuse: "After all, I have always been by your side, so I naturally know a lot of your habits. I discovered that you are afraid of the dark during the autumn hunt. You would get very nervous every time you blew out the lights, and over time I knew that you were afraid of the dark."

It turned out to be the case.

Si Jiu relaxed a little.

In fact, Wen Baizhi learned about this in a dream.

But since she couldn't tell Si Jiu that she was Wen Bai, she wouldn't tell Si Jiu about this dream.

"It's normal to be afraid of the dark." Wen Baizhi comforted, "Everyone has their own likes and fears. This is normal. Look at me, I look very brave, but I'm actually afraid of caterpillars. You wouldn't guess."

Si Jiu's mood is now slowly relaxing.

He knew that Wen Bai was afraid of caterpillars.

Wen Baizhi is naturally afraid now.

Seeing that Si Jiu didn't say anything, Wen Baizhi said, "So Zijin, if there is something we can't change or overcome, then just accept it."

She loosened her grip on him slightly. "Just like you are afraid of the dark, that's fine. At most you can light a few more lights every night and carry a flint with you when you go out. Anyway, it's something you can't change, so just accept it."

Wen Baizhi has been using modern thinking since she was Wen Bai.

She has been trying hard not to be assimilated by the ideas of this era.

She will always stick to her correct ideas.

She will slowly tell Si Jiu about these things in the future.

She is patient and she will wait.

Si Jiu naturally took her words to heart.

He just couldn't fully digest it for a while.

But what Wen Baizhi said was always right to him, and he needed to remember it word for word.

Everywhere he looked was Wen Baizhi.

Wen Baizhi hid her little thoughts and hugged Si Jiu for a long time.

Si Jiu was very thin, so when he leaned in her arms, he didn't actually weigh much.

His body was always cold, and hugging him felt like hugging a piece of ice jade.

Comfortable and refreshing.

But they still need to eat and sleep, and cannot really rely on love as food.

Si Jiu got up from her arms reluctantly.

Wen Baizhi took him to eat the sesame pie she made.

"It's all because of this pie that I came back late. Otherwise I would have come back earlier."

Wen Baizhi said as she took a big bite as if to vent her anger.

Si Jiu was grateful for the pie.

At least he knew that his light had turned into Wen Baizhi.

Wen Baizhi poured him some water and let him eat some cake.

But Si Jiu had just emerged from despair, so he didn't eat much.

Wen Baizhi didn't force him and let him drink some water.

As soon as he drank the water, Si Jiu knew he had to go to the small room at the back to relieve himself.

Wen Baizhi followed him into the small room.

But she reminded me not to lock the door and to call her if anything happened.

Si Jiu agreed and went in with clean clothes.

He first tried to relieve himself, then washed himself and changed into clean clothes.

After making sure that there was no smell on his body, he went out.

But after going out, Wen Baizhi was no longer in the room.

The lantern that had returned with her was also missing.
