Kapitel 29: THE DREAM (I)

Where Li Na was fidgeting in her room about her next meeting with Huo Ling.

Li Jie was having a nightmare.

______________________________

In Li Jie's apartment

A figure was squirming on the big bed. The young man was holding a pillow close to chest in a death grip, he was sobbing in his sleep. His whole body trembling. His long and curly eyelashes were trembling with tears running down his face. The man's beautiful silver hair were scattered on his pillow with a few of them sticking on his face due to sweat and tears, he was biting his trembling lips which made his pale pink lips look more plump and red and made him look more enticingly beautiful. The young man was mumbling something in his sleep like " Stay away from me ", " Don't touch me " repeatedly.

With the amount of sweat on his whole body, It was easy to determine that the man was having a nightmare.

Ying Ying was pacing near the bed in quick steps. He went to sleep with Li Jie. They were sleeping perfectly, even Ying Ying was quite surprised that he could sleep so easily after killing so many men who tried to sexually assault him. In fact quite relieved that Li Jie was not a man with weak heart who can't even take revenge on men who tied to do such a heinous crime.

Just when he was going into deep sleep, The man who was snuggled up to him suddenly tensed up, His arms that were holding him like he was a delicate being suddenly, tensed and gripped him hard. He wasn't able to free himself from Li Jie's grip, He was unable to free from the bone crushing hug. After several attempts, The fox was able to free himself by twisting and turning.

Ying Ying laid on the floor panting, trying to catch his breath. He can sense that Li Jie's mind which currently is in a turmoil. Ying Ying was trying to think about something he could do to wake Li Jie. He could not risk going near Li Jie who could possibly try to kill him in his sleep.

After four hours,

Ying Ying was circling the bed on which Li Jie was sleeping on. Ying Ying could feel all the emotions which were swirling inside Li Jie's brain. He could feel the feeling of helplessness, betrayal and anguish and much more negative emotions radiating from Li Jie. Ying Ying could not see the nightmare he was having but all those emotions were more than enough for Ying Ying to know that the nightmare must be a fragment of Li Jie's previous life.

He had been trying to come up with anything to help Li Jie who was crying and trembling in the sleep. He was still thinking if he should go back to the bed or not when Li Jie woke up from his nightmare and sat up on the bed, staring into nothingness with his eyes wide open.

Ying Ying could feel that something was still off about Li Jie. Thus, He jumped on the bed and laid on top of Li Jie and snuggled up with him. He put his head near his neck and licked his cheek trying to comfort him.

Li Jie was still roaming in his previous life's memories when he felt something wet on his cheek which caused him to resurface from his dark memories. He shook his head trying to clear his head and focus on the furry being who was snuggling up with him and maybe trying to comfort him with his actions.

Li Jie embraced Ying Ying in his arm and stroked the beautiful fur with his jade like fingers. " I am sorry, Ying Ying. You must be scared due to the sudden change in my mental state " Li Jie said trying to comfort the fox in his arms.

" Who said this great one had never been scared in his whole life " Ying Ying said in an authoritative tone, In fact, he was more worried than scared. He was a mythical being who was far above human emotions but when he saw Li Jie sobbing and trembling due to the nightmare, He was worried for him. He thought he would go berserk and kill everyone who did that to him.

" Yeah Yeah, You are the great one who is not afraid of anything in this whole big world " Li Jie said while snuggling with the fox.

" Humph " Ying Ying snorted but still remained still in Li Jie's arms.

Li Jie who was stroking Ying Ying's fur opened his eyes which were frighteningly cold.

THE DREAM

Li Jie had just finished his day at work. He was feeling extremely tired after killing many zombies all alone. He just wanted to go home, lay done and sleep. He sauntered towards their villa which was assigned according to the ability of his to kill zombies and they have gotten a good place to live because of his strong abilities. He was carrying a bag full of food and supplies that he got for today's work.

He reached the villa after hour an hour of walking. He could feel other people staring at him with disgust and contempt in their eyes but he was so used to it that he was immune to them at this point of time.

He entered the villa. His gaze fell on the people that were sitting in the main room in their pristine clothing where his clothes were ragged and with zombie blood all over them.

They looked at him at once with a indescribable emotions in their eyes, Before he could understand that emotion. His gaze went to the man who was sitting rather close to Li Na on the couch and his boyfriend.

" Hey Bo Jing, What are you doing here " Li Jie asked with his eyes full of love and continued " I thought you were not going to be here for the next 3 months "

Bo Jing stood up from his position and went over to him " Oh, I missed you. So, I cut short my trip and came here to meet you " with that he hugged Li Jie.

Bo Jing raised his head from Li Jie's shoulder. His eyes full of killing intent, disgust and cold behind Li Jie's back.
