Chapter 151
"I..." She leaned against the head of the bed, curling her legs and hugging herself.

Li Lei sat down beside the bed, and asked softly, "Did you have a nightmare?"

Xia Ling hesitated and nodded.

"Dream what?" he asked.

Xia Ling didn't speak, and hugged herself even tighter.

A feeling of unrest lingered in Li Lei's heart, just like what he had encountered several times before, at certain moments, he felt that she was very far away from him, so ethereal that it would turn into illusory bubbles in the next second.

He didn't like this feeling very much.

However, he understands better that there are some things that cannot be forced, and she doesn't want to say it, and he can't force her.

Li Lei's eyes darkened where she couldn't see, he stretched out his hand, tentatively hugging her into his arms.The body in his arms was very petite, like a bird with slender bones, it struggled a bit uneasy, and then gradually calmed down.He patted her thin back and combed her somewhat messy long hair with warm fingers.

"Xiao Ling," he said, kissing the top of her head lightly, "I'm here."

Xia Ling pressed her cheek against his chest, listening to his steady and powerful heartbeat through a layer of cotton T-shirt, his long breath gently brushing the ends of her hair, her embrace was like a safe and reliable mountain.

Those chaotic and terrifying memory fragments fade away at some point.

She raised her head slightly and asked him, "Will you always be here?"

Li Lei smiled: "Of course. Xiaoling, go to sleep, I'll be with you." He hugged her and moved aside, leaning his broad back against the head of the bed, pulled up the soft and fluffy duvet, and covered her Some cold body.

The warm and comfortable feeling made her close her eyes slowly, she snuggled up against Li Lei, and soon fell asleep.

This time, there were no nightmares.

Li Lei hugged her in one hand, picked up his phone with the other to send a text message: Find out what happened in the afternoon on the set of "War Eternity", especially what Miss Ye has done and who she has met.

She has been followed by bodyguards secretly, and she quickly responded to the message.

Li Lei pursed his lips and fell into deep thought.

The next day, Xia Ling woke up and found that she was still lying in Li Lei's arms, and the man was hugging her securely while sleeping on the head of the bed.The sunlight shines on his handsome face through the carved curtains, making him look like a god in myths and legends.His brows and eyes are plated with light and shadow, a touch of broken gold, which makes people unconsciously fascinated.

Xia Ling thought, he is so good-looking, better than anyone she has ever seen...

No.

Unexpectedly, another extremely handsome figure flashed in my heart, silent and majestic, like a demon walking out of the abyss with blood.She shuddered, and all her charming fantasies dissipated.

She got up from Li Lei's embrace, feeling a little guilty, last night she was hugged by him for the whole night, while he was half-sitting in this most uncomfortable position, making do with her bedside all night.She pulled up the duvet that was still warm with her own body temperature, and covered him gently, and thought about whether to lay him down flat, but she dragged a few times, but she didn't.

This man doesn't look fat at all, why is he so heavy?
Xia Ling was discouraged, and only wanted to find some pillows to make him more comfortable, so he slowly opened his eyes.

A little confused: "Xiao Ling?"

Xia Ling looked at him for half a second: "Are you awake?"

"Ah."

"When you wake up, lie down on your own. If your sleeping position is wrong, go back to sleep."

Li Lei: "..."

"It's okay, I slept well last night." He saw her hidden concern and guilt, and smiled warmly. "But how are you doing? Are you feeling better? Filming is a physical effort."

Xia Ling nodded, "Last night...thank you." If he hadn't hugged her, she might not have been able to sleep all night, and today's filming progress would have been delayed by her again, so he came yesterday very timely.But……

"Why did you come here?" She forgot to ask last night.

"Visiting the class." Li Lei said it as a matter of course, "I miss you." In fact, he received the news from the bodyguard that Mr. Gu brought Gu Lin here, and he was worried, so he immediately followed.Unexpectedly, Mr. Gu didn't do anything to her, but she showed some signs of mental instability.

What exactly had she been stimulated by?

Li Lei recalled the diagnosis made by Dr. Jie Miao before: she had experienced a lot of destructive trauma, such as death threats, captivity, rape and violence...

As a result, when faced with a similar situation, there will be an overreaction.

Li Lei didn't dare to think deeply about what she had suffered, it was too terrible, as long as he imagined her suffering for a moment, he couldn't bear the pain.However, the only thing that can be determined is that her resume has been seamlessly faked, and "Ye Xingling"'s life is too ordinary and smooth, without any terrible twists and turns.

He was worried, but on the surface he acted nonchalantly, joking with her.

Xia Ling didn't doubt it, she had breakfast with Li Lei, told him not to run around in the room, and then went to the set with the team.Maybe it's because of the night's rest. Everyone seems to be in good spirits, and the shooting has gone much smoother. Except for a few minor NGs, everything else was done in one go. By three or four in the afternoon, the last scene had already been shot.

This is the end of Xia Ling's role, she said goodbye to Jin Yifei.

Jin Yifei asked: "Going back to the city now? The others finished filming within a few days, why don't you stay for the finale?"

Xia Ling wanted to come, but there was a big BOSS hidden in the room. This place is no better than the audition scene. The big names, managers, and high-end staff here all have poisonous eyes. If she recognizes her and exposes their relationship, then she can find someone to cry with.

Must go, go decisively.

Seeing that she was determined to go, Jin Yifei didn't want to keep her anymore, he said take care and said goodbye.

Xia Ling returned to the S city apartment in Li Lei's car.

For the next few days, she was very busy, because the Gu family re-invited her to endorse the Star Wings, and all the announcement plans were disrupted. Sister Mai Na confirmed with her one by one, reordered, and the schedule was intensive. A lot, I can't wait to use a day as 48 hours.

Li Lei, on the other hand, went to meet someone calmly.

The last day of the filming scene of "War of War".

Everyone has gone to the wrap-up banquet. The once bustling palace scenery has been dismantled to pieces. The empty corridors, halls and dragon chairs look particularly bleak at dusk.

Old Bao was still standing in the shadow of the screen wall in front of the main hall.

Li Lei stood opposite him: "Who are you?"

"A plumber." Old Bao's voice was as rough as ever.

"Oh, is that so?" Li Lei smiled lightly, and took two steps forward, "But as far as I know, you have another name—Wang Jingzhou, the former head of the Wang Group, Pei Ziheng's Quasi-father-in-law."
