Chapter 378 The Girl and the Ghost in the Bed
He couldn’t admit he was wrong.
Even if he gets younger, it is impossible for him not to recognize his lover.
Xu Xiangyang stood in front of the window of his girlfriend (young version) and was stunned for a while, his head slightly dizzy.
It’s not because I saw Xingjie when she was young…
Although this girl used to look chubby and naive in stark contrast with the slender and slender girl she has today, as the so-called “eighteen changes of female seniors”, it seems that only the innocent face with a little baby fat still has some of her childhood immaturity. —Besides, even though Xingjie’s chubby child appearance is also cute, he still wants to laugh, if he has a camera at hand, he must take a few pictures as a souvenir to laugh at her later-
But these are not the point.
The point is, he actually saw her in the past.
From a dark and boundless vast world, to being attracted by small lights, to a…
Uh, by the way, where did this come from.
Thinking of this, Xu Xiangyang finally had the mind to start looking at the surrounding environment:
This is obviously a child’s room, a bed, a cabinet, a set of desks and chairs. The schoolbag was reclining on the chair, and the workbooks, encyclopedias and dictionaries were littered on the table, there were posters of Teresa Teng on the walls, and dolphins, racing cars, and footballs were stuffed in the corners.
The area of the room is not large, but the impression it gives people is nostalgic. Xu Xiangyang couldn’t help smiling knowingly. The layout and messy atmosphere here are really similar to his childhood bedroom.
He thinks that Xingjie may have been quite boyish when she was a child, maybe even a naughty little kid. What she likes to play with is not Barbie dolls, but toys like football skateboard racing cars.
On the other side of the bedroom, there is a window. He looked out through the glass, and what caught his eye was the dim sky and the lawn shrouded in darkness.
Although the sky was a little darker, it was already bright compared to the dark **** when he came. The hillsides in the distance undulate gently, the reflections of the trees cover the bushes, and a bright crescent moon can be seen farther away.
All are silent, a peaceful countryside scenery.
He breathed a sigh of relief, it seemed the place was “normal”…
…Yes, this should still be Lin Xingjie’s world of consciousness, Xu Xiangyang thought.
In fact, no matter which side, it is part of the girl’s “consciousness”, but the area where he is currently is relatively special.
According to the previous guesses, Xingjie remembered the past through a dream, and the real ability belonging to the divine media will be unsealed; in other words, she has come to a dream of memory.
Here, he has a chance to learn what happened in the past and find a way to wake up Xingjie.
Nothing wrong, everything is fine.
Things are going in the best direction.
This is just a dream.
However, what happened next was a bit unexpected—
Little Xingjie lying on the bed seemed to have had a nightmare, suddenly widened her eyes and woke up sweating profusely.
Her little hands were holding the quilt tightly, her expression was stiff, only her eyes were exposed, she looked nervous and scared.
Xu Xiangyang was amused and curious at the same time. What is she afraid of?
Commonly speaking, the dream that happened in front of him should have something special, and it is likely to be the most important and impressive part of Xingjie’s childhood memory.
Xu Xiangyang soon knew the answer.
Because he found that the little girl was staring at the man with a pair of big eyes, as if…
seems to be himself.
No, how is this possible?
Xu Xiangyang thought it was incredible. He was in the memory of the past. How could a person from the past, an illusory shadow in a dream, see him?
Maybe, just an illusion.
Xu Xiangyang’s mood was a little weird and awkward. He couldn’t help turning his head, wanting to make sure he was really looking at himself.
Of course, there was nothing behind him, only the white walls.
“Dad…Mom…Dad! Save me!…Save me!”
Finally couldn’t hold back the fear in her heart, the little girl with the braided horns began to shout at her throat.
Xu Xiangyang was taken aback.
He subconsciously wanted to step forward to comfort him, but he quickly realized that it was futile to do so.
I could only hear the sound of “ping ping ping ping” from downstairs, followed by the footsteps of two adults rushing up.

“You… are you all right?”
Lin Suya, who was wearing pajamas, knelt on the ground and grabbed her daughter’s hand with a worried look, while Lin Mingyuan stood silently at the head of the bed, quietly watching the mother-daughter exchange.
“What happened? Why did you suddenly scream?”
“There is… someone…”
The little girl’s body was still shaking, she stammered with her arms crossed.
The light in the room was turned on, and the warm light dispelled the hallucinatory darkness and gloom. With her parents around, the little girl’s fierce heartbeat gradually calmed down, but her face was still pale with fright.
“I just saw someone…”
“Someone? A thief?”
Lin Mingyuan glanced at the window of the room, it was well sealed. He asked in a low voice:
“Where did you see that? Where did he escape?”
“Just, in this room…”
“This room?”
The man froze for a moment.
Daughter’s bedroom is not big, at least not like an area that can hide a person without being discovered.
But he still checked inside the cupboard, under the bed and behind the door, and there was indeed no one there.
In addition, there is only one road leading to the bedroom on the second floor. When they came up, they did not bump into anyone, and the window was not open…
The husband and wife looked at each other and quickly came to a conclusion:
This is the little girl who just had a nightmare.
Although this is the first time for Xing Jie, who has always been fearless, she is still a child after all.
Lin Suya’s expression softened, she stroked her daughter’s hair lightly, and said with a smile:
“Okay, don’t worry, I and your dad are with you. Take a rest and sleep at ease.”
“But…but…”
Lin Xingjie grabbed the quilt with his hand and covered half of his face.
“‘He’, ‘He’ is still here…”
“Really? Where?”
“…”
The girl stopped talking and buried her whole head in the quilt. Lin Suya couldn’t help but open it for her, and then she gently patted the little girl’s shoulder and comforted in a low voice.
“Don’t be afraid, don’t be afraid. So baby, I’ll sleep with you tonight, okay?”
As the woman spoke, she instructed her husband:
“Go outside and check if the doors and windows are locked. I’ll stay here tonight with the kids.”
“Okay.”
Lin Mingyuan nodded.
“Wait first, I’ll warm up a glass of milk for her.”
Having said that, Lin Suya walked out of the bedroom. After a while, she came back with hot milk and put the cup on the bedside table, ready to “change shifts” with her husband.
However, just when Lin Suya wanted to take out the spare quilt from the cabinet, the little girl shouted from behind her:
“…No need, Mom.”
“Um?”
She turned her head and saw that her daughter lying on the bed seemed to have calmed down.
“What’s the matter? Don’t need me?”
“Well, it doesn’t matter if I’m alone.” Lin Xingjie said softly, “Mom, go back and rest.”
Lin Suya looked at her daughter for a while, and found that the child was no longer afraid, but her attitude was not as lively as before.
She didn’t care too much.
Anyway, it was just a dream.
Lin Suya walked out of the room, ready to turn off the light. Just then, she heard her daughter hurriedly stop behind her.
“Don’t, don’t close.”
“…Okay.”
Lin Suya smiled. Because they are afraid of the dark, they always like to leave lights in the bedroom – in fact, quite a few younger children have this habit, and her daughter is no exception, nothing unusual.

Mother pushed the door and left.
After she could not see her, Lin Xingjie sat up and started holding the soft pillow, staring at the corner of the bedroom in a daze.
She listened to her mother’s footsteps from the corridor to the stairs, all the way. She wanted to open her mouth several times, calling her parents to stay with her, but she finally made up her mind and didn’t speak.
When the whole house was completely quiet, the girl’s eyes wandered in the room, from the walls to the furniture, the pale yellow halo outlined the outline of the hazy objects in the room, one after another, ups and downs…
In the end, he still landed in front of his bed.
“You…you’re still there, right?”
Lin Xingjie’s voice was very light and trembling. It was like she was talking to herself, but her eyes were fixed on this place.
There was nothing there, and she couldn’t really see anything, but she knew very well that “that person”—to be precise, the creature whose existence was uncertain—was always there and never left.
The room was still quiet, and the night was as quiet as running water. The girl could only hear her own breathing, and the little heart under her chest was pounding.
“You…you’re not going to hurt me, are you?”
Waited for a long time, still no response. Lin Xingjie didn’t give up, she raised her head and asked this unknown existence carefully.
Silence.
The silence in the room lingers, flowing, stretching and growing together with the lights.
Lin Xingjie has been very courageous since she was a child, and has always been a restless child; but what she did tonight may have consumed all the courage in her heart.
She doesn’t want to involve Mom and Dad, but wants to solve the problem by herself.
The little girl crawled out of the bed and stood by the bed in slippers.
Even though she can’t see it, she can feel the other person’s appearance, height and outline very strangely; although it is blurred, but…
Unconsciously, she raised her hand and stretched it out in the direction of the outline.
Because the other person was taller than him, she had to stand on tiptoe and try to touch her face with her fingers.
It wasn’t until after she made this action that Lin Xingjie suddenly realized what she was doing, her movement stopped and her fingers stiffened in place.
How will how will how-
How dare I become so bold!
Knowing that the other party is likely to be a ghost, I still want to touch it with my hands!
Although the other party has never meant to do harm…but, what if you make it angry!
Besides, are ghosts something that can be easily touched? When my parents came, they had walked through the whole room, and there was no obstruction at all. That is to say, even if I wanted to touch it, my hand would only pass through it like touching the air…
Just as she was thinking so, a feedback like human skin suddenly came from her fingertips.
The girl was stunned.
Although this feedback is very weak, it does exist, and there seems to be some invisible substance flowing around it, elastic like jelly.
She watched helplessly as tiny transparent ripples spread out layer by layer centered on her fingertips, and disappeared into the air without a sound.
Lin Xingjie poked the air again with her fingertips in disbelief, but in the next second, something grabbed her wrist.
The girl was startled and almost wanted to yell for help again.
However, the opponent’s movements were unexpectedly light. Don’t say anything malicious, when she tried to struggle a little bit, the “invisible existence” took the initiative to let go, as if she was worried about hurting herself.
Lin Xingjie put down her arm and was stunned for a while.
…strange feeling.
Obviously this guy is not a human at all, but an invisible monster, but she seems to be able to feel a strong impulse no less than a human being from the other person, an emotion that seems to want to hold someone as a treasure in her arms. —
It is gentle and surging, so young girls can’t fully understand it for the time being.
However, after hesitating for a moment, Lin Xingjie took the initiative to raise her hand and once again created tiny ripples like transparent fish scales in the air.
Her hand was held by the other party again.
“You… won’t hurt me, will you?”
After hesitating for a moment, Lin Xingjie spoke softly and repeated the previous question.
And this time, she could clearly feel the movement of the other party’s nod in agreement.
