The forty-minute journey was compressed by Xi Jiu to just twenty minutes.
After receiving the news, Xixi was already waiting at the back door of the hotel. As soon as Maybach stopped, he handed Xi Jiu the mask and room card he had prepared.
"There's no one around, so don't worry, Master, go up."
Xi Jiu took the mask and put it on, then threw the car keys to Xi Xi and walked quickly into the hotel.
The elevator goes directly to the 12th floor where Ruan Qi's room is located.
Xi Jiu easily found the room where Ruan Qi was, swiped the card, opened the door, and entered the room.
The room was dark, except for the dim light from the bedroom that leaked from the crack in the door.
Xi Jiu strode over and opened the door.
"Baby."
The little girl huddled under the quilt showed her head.
"Jiujiu..." She stretched out her hand, her voice was fragile and mute, "Hug."
Without saying a word, Xi Jiu walked directly to the bed and took the little girl into her arms, including the quilt.
The man's anger was very strong, and his body was always warm. Ruan Qi rested her head on his chest, and her forehead, which was cold due to cold sweat, gradually became infected with his body temperature.
"The baby has a nightmare?" Xi Jiu's voice spread in her chest, making her face feel numb.
Ruan Qi let out a muffled "Huh".
Xi Jiu's eyes darkened.
Nie Beilou said that even with his treatment, Ruan Qi's mental state would still be very dangerous. As long as he was slightly stimulated, the psychological defense would easily collapse.
What stimulation did the little girl receive today?
Xi Jiu narrowed her eyes thoughtfully.
At this time, the little girl in his arms stretched out her little hand and gently pulled off his clothes.
"Jiujiu, my hands are cold."
Xi Jiu came back to his senses immediately.
He touched the little girl's hands, and they were all ice-cold from the fingertips to the palms. Even though it was hot July, these hands felt like they were soaked in the freezing water of the twelfth lunar month.
The man's heart ached faintly.
He held the little girl's hand and rubbed it a few times, then unbuttoned his shirt and said, "Baby, put your hand in."
Ruan Qi obediently put her little hand in.
The man's body is very hot, and there are tight muscles under the skin, full of linear and explosive power.
After Ruan Qi put her hand in for a while, her fingertips began to slowly warm up. Along with her whole heart, she also gradually warmed up.
The panic caused by the nightmare finally slowly dissipated. Smelling the familiar cold rosin on the man's body, Ruan Qi finally had a sense of reality in the real world.
"Jiujiu, am I disturbing your work?" The little girl returned to normal and began to worry about her daily life.
"No." Xi Jiu squeezed her hands, "It's not an important meeting and it can end at any time. Even if the baby doesn't call, I have to get off work."
Ruan Xiaoqi, who was worried that she would affect her boyfriend's work, was comforted.
But soon, she began to worry about another thing.
"Jiujiu, have you had dinner?"
Xi Jiu wanted to say that he had eaten. But when he thought about the little girl saying that he had no appetite just now, he immediately changed the topic and said, "I haven't eaten. I am very hungry now. Baby, please accompany me to eat something?"
Ruan Qi has no appetite. But her boyfriend's health is more important than her loss of appetite.
She decisively agreed and took the initiative to call the hotel to make a reservation.
Not long after, the dining car arrived.
Xi Jiu pushed the dining cart to the dining table, then returned to the bedroom and picked up the little girl.
Ruan Qi let him hold her, her two little hands hugging his neck with a full sense of dependence.
Xi Jiu carried her to the dining chair, then pulled another dining chair and sat down next to her.
The food in the dining car was very sumptuous. What Ruan Qi ordered were all Xi Jiu's favorites. Xi Jiu later asked Xi Xi to add a few more dishes, all of which were the little girl's favorites.
"Jiujiu, you eat." The little girl, who had no appetite, held her chin and looked at him with watery peach blossom eyes.
Xi Jiu's heart melted when she saw her.
He took two quick bites of rice, then picked up the little girl's favorite dish with chopsticks and brought it to her mouth.
"Baby, take a bite."
Ruan Qi hesitated for a moment, then opened her mouth obediently and ate the food.
The food in this hotel is quite delicious. Normally, Ruan Qi can at least eat a big bowl of rice.
But for some reason today, as soon as I took the food into my mouth, I felt a slight nausea.
Ruan Qi tried hard to hold back for a few seconds, but she still couldn't resist her physiological instinct and vomited all the food on the dining table.
"Baby!"
Xi Jiu's expression suddenly changed.
He threw down his chopsticks and held the little girl's shoulders that were shaking from vomiting.
Ruan Qi retched uncomfortably a few times, but she didn't eat much all day, and she didn't vomit anything except the dishes she ordered just now.
She took two hard breaths, and after she stopped retching, she slowly raised her head.
Xi Jiu looked at her worriedly, with panic and anxiety suppressed deep in his dark eyes.
Ruan Qi smiled slightly and said, "Jiujiu, I'm fine. I just feel uncomfortable in my stomach. Don't worry."
Xi Jiu didn't believe her explanation, so she just said "hmm" in a deep voice, then stood up and walked into the kitchen.
Not long after, he came out with a glass of warm water.
"Baby, drink some water to moisten your mouth."
Ruan Qi's mouth was bitter from vomiting just now. She took the water glass and drank most of the warm water.
The warm water flowed down the throat and into the stomach, making the already uncomfortable body feel a little more comfortable.
Xi Jiu stared at her as she drank up a glass of water, her ugly face finally relaxing a bit.
He took the empty water glass and put it on the table, then took out a toffee from the dining cart, peeled off the candy wrapper and put it to the little girl's mouth.
Ruan Qi opened her mouth and took the toffee into her mouth. With her watery peach blossom eyes, she glanced at the dining table where she had vomited into a mess. Guilt showed on her beautiful face.
"Jiujiu, I'm sorry, I ruined a wonderful dinner."
The little girl was still worried about her boyfriend not having enough to eat. But how could Xi Jiu be in the mood to eat at this time? All he could think about was why the little girl was vomiting.
Could it be related to her mental state?
Since learning that Ruan Qi had been severely stimulated, Xi Jiu began to read books related to psychotherapy.
He knew to some extent that when people experience huge psychological fluctuations, they will indeed experience symptoms such as vomiting, palpitation, and even coma.
For example, anorexia is a type of mental illness, a physical reaction caused by emotions.
Ruan Qi's sudden vomiting was probably related to the fact that she had just had a nightmare and had excessive mood swings.
When a person has physical reactions due to emotions, it indicates that her mental illness has progressed further.
This speculation made Xi Jiu's blood quickly turn cold. An inexplicable uneasiness grew in his heart, like an abyss, mire, desolate and dead.
He subconsciously held the little girl's hand.
"Jiujiu?" Ruan Qi looked at him doubtfully.
Xi Jiu tried hard to control the panic in her heart and touched the top of her head calmly.
"Don't worry, baby, I'm not too hungry. I'll call Xixi later and ask him to order another table of rice. What do you want to eat? You just finished vomiting, can you have some porridge and hot soup?"
