Chapter 184 Doorbell
"Yeah." Seeing that he looked very tired, Su Tang let him hold her without saying anything more.
The living room was very quiet. Su Tang was drowsy in He Xingyu's arms and fell asleep unknowingly.
When Su Tang woke up, he opened his eyes to see a pitch-black room. He reached out to the side to look for his cell phone but touched the switch instead.
Only after turning on the night light on the bedside table could I see clearly that I was in He Xingyu's bedroom.
How long had I slept? Why hadn't He Xingyu come back yet?
Su Tang rubbed his head and looked around for his cell phone, but found that it was not in the room, and his sleepiness was driven away.
Su Tang got up, put on his slippers, opened the bedroom door, and shrank back at the darkness in front of him. He wondered in his heart whether he should go to the living room to see if there was a cell phone.
Just as Su Tang was thinking, a "ding" sound suddenly came from the living room, and then a light came on on the sofa.
Only then did Su Tang realize that it was his phone that had automatically lit up the screen due to an incoming message.
While the light from the phone screen was still on, Su Tang gathered his clothes and rushed to the living room.
Just when the phone was about to go out, Su Tang arrived at its side in time.
When Su Tang picked up the phone, the first thing he saw was the time "3:46". It was so late, why hadn't He Xingyu come back yet?
As soon as I turned on the phone, messages popped up one after another. The first few were sent by He Xingyu, and there were a few more text messages.
11:30
[He Xingyu: Brother went to the police station, and since you were sleeping so soundly, he didn't wake you up.]
12:00
[He Xingyu: Tangtang, I have a lot of things to do here, so I should be home a little late.]
2:45
He Xingyu: Tangtang, if you wake up mid-sentence, don't run around. Stay home and wait for your brother to come back. Don't open the door if anyone knocks.
Su Tang felt strange looking at the message sent by He Xingyu. Did something happen outside?
【Su Tang: Brother, I'm awake. I'll be waiting for you at home. 】
On the other side, He Xingyu was extremely busy. He originally went to the police station to guard 001, fearing that he would escape. Just when he was about to leave, someone called the police and said that he was being hunted around Mingyue Community.
There were not many people on duty at night, so he and Gu Jin, who was on duty, went to rescue people.
I didn't even notice Su Tang's reply.
Seeing that it was still early, Su Tang was about to go back to sleep when the doorbell rang!
Ding Dong·····Ding Dong······
The doorbell rang for a second time after a while. When Su Tang heard the sound, his heart instantly rose to his throat. His eyes were fixed on the door. There was only the sound of the doorbell, no sound of talking.
Ding Dong... Another doorbell rang.
Su Tang held his breath and tiptoed into the bedroom, intending to leave this horrible living room.
Just at the corner of the sofa, Su Tang stepped on the bag, and the snacks inside made a "crunching" sound. Then he remembered that it was the bag of snacks that he had casually placed in the corner of the sofa in the afternoon.
Not caring about anything else, Su Tang rushed into the bedroom, not paying any attention to the ringing doorbell.
He closed and locked the door in one go, turned the doorknob down to make sure it was locked, then rushed to the bed and wrapped himself in the quilt.
The fear in his heart slowly disappeared, and soon Su Tang fell asleep in fear.
This sleep was very uneasy. In my dream I couldn’t return to the bedroom.
The doorbell rang and my body involuntarily walked towards the door to open it. No matter how hard I struggled, I couldn't control my hands.
Finally the door was opened, and outside stood a man holding a sharp knife. The knife was still dripping blood. The floor, the door, and the man's body were all covered with bright red blood.
"Ah!!!" Su Tang suddenly opened his eyes, gasping for breath, his heart pounding wildly, and his body trembled involuntarily.
I was very scared, but I couldn't remember what I was afraid of.
"Tangtang, what's wrong?" The bedroom door was opened and He Xingyu's anxious voice came.
The next second, his body fell into a strong and warm embrace.
Su Tang grabbed He Xingyu's clothes and buried her head in his chest, crying in her voice: "Brother, I'm scared."
"Don't be afraid, don't be afraid, my brother is here."
"Brother will always protect Tangtang." He Xingyu patted the back of Su Tang's hand and coaxed him softly.
Su Tang didn't say what happened, so He Xingyu didn't ask.
Gradually, Su Tang calmed down. She grabbed He Xingyu's expensive clothes and began to wipe her tears.
"I had a dream, but now I can't remember it."
"It was a terrible dream."
As Su Tang spoke, she couldn't help but pout, and tears began to well up in her eyes again.
"Dreams are all the opposite, they are not real." He Xingyu wiped away Su Tang's tears and answered him.
"Really?" Su Tang looked up at He Xingyu.
He Xingyu said seriously: "Really, it's the opposite."
After seeing He Xingyu's face clearly, Su Tang noticed the large dark circles under his eyes. His expression did not look good. "Brother, when did you come back?"
"Do you want to rest for a while?" As she said that, she was about to leave He Xingyu's arms and give him her place on the bed.
"No, brother has slept."
"Let's go have breakfast." He Xingyu picked up Su Tang and walked out.
"Young master is up?" Yao Hongyan had just placed breakfast on the table when she saw He Xingyu carrying Su Tang into the room.
"Eat it while it's hot."
"Thank you, Aunt Yao." Su Tang held the small bowl and thanked her in a baby voice.
"You're welcome, you're welcome." Yao Hongyan's eyes were almost smiling into slits.
Seeing Su Tang stirring the porridge in the small bowl in front of him, and not seeing him eating anything else: "Custard buns, you like it."
"Hmm." Su Tang picked it up and took a small bite. Suddenly, he felt that it was not as delicious as before, so he put it on an empty plate beside him.
After taking a few more mouthfuls of porridge, Su Tang put down the spoon and said, "Brother, I don't want to eat anymore."
He Xingyu looked at the porridge he had barely taken a bite of, and the custard bun he had only taken a small bite of: "Can you have a few last bites?"
"Hmm~" Su Tang hummed and shook his head.
"If you get hungry later, call Aunt Yao, okay?"
"Hmm."
He Xingyu poured all the porridge in Su Tang's bowl into his own bowl and drank it. He also ate the custard bun that he had taken a small bite of without changing his expression, even though he didn't like sweet things.
Except Su Tang.
Yao Hongyan, who was resting in the living room, saw the two people coming out and stood up to ask, "Master, have you finished your meal?"
"Yeah." He Xingyu responded lightly.
