Chapter 158: Bai Yi Woke Up
“Don’t worry, this little injury is not a problem for me. You go out and rest well. When I am well rested and my injuries are healed, I will naturally look for you. When the time comes, I will tell you what happened, okay?”
All the injuries on Bai Yi’s body had been seen by Emily. She did not need to pretend anymore. She lay weakly on the bed as if she was in great pain. In a short while, she closed her eyes.
Emily did not dare to speak. She was afraid that she would disturb Bai Yi, so she covered Bai Yi with the blanket and left the space. However, she could not help but worry in her heart. Fortunately, she could enter the space at will again. Every day, the first thing she did when she woke up was to go into the space to check on Bai Yi’s condition. She had to go in again before she went to sleep.
However, every time she went in, she found that Bai Yi’s injuries had not changed at all. She could only worry in her heart, but she could not do anything. Every time, she could only stretch out her hand to see if Bai Yi was still breathing. Only after she was sure did she leave the space with ease.
For a few days in a row, Emily was listless. Other than the few brothers who went out to run at night every day, she was not interested in anything else. Even when Shen Hao asked her to play Go, she found an excuse to go back to her room.
“What’s wrong with Emily these few days? Why is she so listless?” Shen Nan finally could not hold it in anymore and asked Shen Yu.
He then looked at Emily who was sitting on the sofa at the side. She was holding an apple in her hand. She was like an emotionless machine, repeatedly chewing on it. However, she was completely unaware that she had eaten an apple.
Shen Yu frowned as well. These past few days, Emily had also become less talkative. He felt that something was wrong with Emily. However, every time he asked Emily, Emily would say that she was fine. This made Shen Yu even more annoyed.
“Millie, come in.” The voice of Bai Yi suddenly appeared in Emily’s mind. It seemed that Bai Yi had woken up. Emily instantly stood up from the sofa, giving Shen Nan and the rest a fright.
Emily hurriedly went upstairs. She was afraid that the Shen family would be suspicious. “I’m a little tired. I want to go back to my room to rest for a while.”
However, Emily’s running speed did not seem like she was going to rest. The Shen family members were even more puzzled.
As soon as Emily returned to her room, she locked her door and lay on the bed. Her consciousness instantly entered the space. As soon as Emily opened her eyes, Bai Yi appeared in front of her. She was still dressed in white clothes, and there were no wounds on her body at all. Her face also turned a little red.
“Bai Yi, are you alright? You don’t know, but you almost scared me to death. I come in to see you every day, but you still haven’t woken up.”
Emily’s eyes had been scanning Bai Yi’s body. She wanted to see if Bai Yi was injured anywhere else. She was really afraid that Bai Yi would leave her.
“Don’t worry, I’m fine.” Bai Yi touched Emily’s head. Her face was full of relief. It seemed that she had not pampered this child in vain.
“So what’s with the injuries on your body? Haven’t you always been in the space? Who else can hurt you? Or did you get injured outside the space?”
“You asked so many questions all at once. Which one do you want me to answer?”
Bai Yi smiled and pulled Emily to sit on the treetop. She gently stroked the tree trunk. “Millie, have you noticed that this tree has become much thicker recently?”
Emily followed Bai Yi’s hand and looked over. At a glance, she really found that this tree seemed to have become thicker than before. “So, does this mean that my luck has been very good recently?”
“Didn’t you go to take the Go ranking exam a few days ago? After you became famous, there were many people who liked you. That’s why the tree absorbed their likes, and that’s why it became thicker. If not for that, I might have needed a long time to wake up.”
Bai Yi was gratified. If not for the many people who liked Emily during this period of time, she might not have been able to wake up for a month. When that time came, she did not know how anxious Emily would be.
“You still haven’t told me what’s going on. Why are you injured?” Emily looked like she didn’t want to lie to her. Don’t think that you can change the topic just like that. She wasn’t a three-year-old child, so it wasn’t easy to fool her.
“Weren’t you kidnapped previously? And you were covered in injuries? Then, your injuries basically recovered the next day?”
Bai Yi felt a little helpless, so she might as well tell Emily directly so that she wouldn’t be anxious after encountering such a thing in the future.
