A Doll Made By One’S Own Hands—— Chapter 1

Chapter 1 Doll

Chi Qing suddenly felt apprehensive, and his body trembled as if he had been touched by a ghost.

He sat in front of the desk, and the knuckles that clenched the black pen were turned white by Chi Qing. He suddenly felt that the frightening thing had returned to the bedroom.

Chi Qing’s supposedly delicate eyebrows were twisted with fear, his dark eyes were bloodshot and staring, and his throat was uneasy and he was swallowing in fear.

But it has clearly been discarded in the garbage dump!

He kept his back to the door, but did not dare to turn around and take a look at the door. The black pen in his hand was uncontrollably scratching on the white paper, and the black words on the white paper penetrated the back of the paper.

【don’t want!】

【Don’t look back!】

Chi Qing’s chest rose and fell violently, and cold sweat broke out from his back.The doors and windows were obviously closed, but a gust of wind blew up for no apparent reason, chilling his entire body.

His scalp was numb, and his anxiety kept urging him to hide, run, and don’t look back.

However, Chi Qing’s hands and feet suddenly became horribly stiff, and he turned around bit by bit, uncontrollably, like a controlled machine.

A drop of cold sweat snaked down his forehead and flowed into the corner of his eyes, causing Chi Qing’s eyes to burst into tears.

At this moment when his eyes were full of tears, he once again faced that strange and beautiful face, with bright and dazzling features, staring directly at him with strange and invading eyes.

That was exactly what Chi Qing created with his own hands.

—

A few months ago.

Chi Qing stopped what he was doing and put aside the paints and brushes.The slightly long and soft black hair almost covered his entire eyebrows. The dim light in the room gave the young man a dejected and lonely temperament.

Chi Qing glanced at the phone screen uneasily again.

[Li Nan, a new restaurant has opened near the school with good response.】

[Can I invite you to come with me?】

The message showed that it was three days ago, and it was thirty-six hours ago, but the other party seemed to have not received any reply. This torture, which was comparable to cold violence, made Chi Qing feel very depressed.

All the signs are there. The more Chi Qing scrolls through the messages, the more short and perfunctory the other party’s replies become. Occasionally when Chi Qing shares interesting things in life with the other party, Li Nan just responds with a “hmm” after half a day.

It was obviously not like this at the beginning. Chi’s blue and black eyebrows were twisted into a frown. Recalling that Li Nan was more active in responding to his messages at first.

His bone-white fingers suddenly stopped flipping through the pages, and his eyes focused on the photos he had sent to Li Nan’s preliminary model of the doll.

It all started half a month ago.

There are often two types of people in schools. One type is a proud man with a well-off and powerful background, who has been in the spotlight since he was a child. The other type is an unknown bookworm with no merit. He has an average family and average grades. He would not be recognized among the crowd. They are so-called mediocre and powerful.

Li Nan and Chi Qing are at the two extremes of this scale.

Chi Qing’s always solitary character should have been difficult to tempt, but he has been away from the group for a long time, and coupled with the inherent stupidity in his bones, not to mention that he has not received any kindness from others for many years, and his temperament is even more despicable.

During the military training for freshmen, the instructor asked people to perform and sing. Unfortunately for Chi Qing, the instructor randomly selected him among dozens of students.

His qualifications were mediocre, and he didn’t know how to sing or dance at all. Chi Qing’s body stiffened as he faced the gazes directed at him, looking at him, curiously, and laughing at him. Even though Chi Qing should have been unable to adapt anymore, his hands were still cold and his mouth was dry and he couldn’t say a word.

“Instructor——” The girl’s clear and charming voice came from close by.

Chi Qing opened his eyes and found Li Nan meeting his eyes and giving him a slightly naughty smile. Then he saw her raising her hands as if to rescue her: “Let me do it.”

The ugliness of no longer being laughed at by everyone was finally relieved. Chi Qing straightened his lips and expressed his sincere gratitude to Li Nan.

Later, during military training, Chi Qing almost suffered from heat stroke, and it was Li Nan who discovered it first. These thanks were like spring water soaking Chi Qing silently, and the water dripping through the stone eventually changed the taste.

Half a month ago, Chi Qing was sitting in the classroom and overheard her classmates discussing Li Nan’s birthday in the corner. Li Nan was a very popular girl in the class, not only because of her family background, but also because of her cheerful and outgoing personality.

Chi Qing took a peek at the gifts they planned to buy. The best ones were customized by foreign designers, while the inferior ones were actually some big brands.

But he couldn’t even afford these so-called inferior brands. The only thing he could do best was to make beautiful dolls.

This is an extremely unpopular skill that is gradually being lost. If Chi Qing had not followed his incompetent father since childhood, he would not have learned this skill by ear.

“Aqing, you must always remember that the object in our hands is not just a simple thing. It is alive and flexible. You must use your hands to give it fresh life.”

He was a good boy and always remembered things well.

—

However, when Chi Qing made up his mind, he realized one thing belatedly, that is, Chi Qing had no idea when Li Nan’s birthday was.

It’s also funny, even though the gift has been selected, the person doesn’t even know the birthday of the recipient.

He first asked his classmate politely, but he didn’t know whether his message was lost or the other party didn’t see it at all, or the classmate saw it and forgot to reply, leaving only Chi Qing’s message awkwardly in the chat box, and even Li Nan himself didn’t respond.

Later, Chi Qing anxiously held her phone and waited all afternoon. After receiving no reply, Chi Qing nervously stopped the person after class the next day.

He always showed his stupid and tense side unconsciously in front of Li Nan, and even what he wanted to say had to go around in his throat a few times before he was willing to say it, “I want to ask you-”

Chi Qing’s words were interrupted by the malicious banter, which was whispered by the people around him.

“It’s not just once or twice that he’s acting like a dog licker. He’s been like this since the end of the military training. You said, he shouldn’t be so stupid as to think that Li Nan’s rescue was for him, right? It’s really a blessing to his own face. Who doesn’t know that Li Nan deliberately offered favors because he was running for the school committee.”

They did not restrain their voices and did not care whether Chi Qing would hear them. There was even a certain possibility that they deliberately told Chi Qing.

Chi Qing did hear it, and this was not the first time Chi Qing heard it like this. Even if the facts were as they said, it would not affect his good impression of Li Nan. After all, a gentleman’s deeds do not matter his heart, and Li Nan at least had good intentions for himself in his behavior.

That’s enough.

Chi Qing didn’t take these people’s gossip seriously, but Li Nan’s cold and bored expression made Chi Qing’s heart feel cold, as if he had been forced into a handful of cold snow. It was so cold that Chi Qing’s face turned a bit pale.

She didn’t even glance at her, her delicate eyebrows furrowed imperceptibly: “What’s the matter?”

Chi Qing spoke very slowly: “I want to ask you, when is your birthday?”

Li Nan’s brows tightened, and she looked at him impatiently as if she rolled her eyes, but tried her best to remain polite: “That’s it?”

Chi Qing was even more embarrassed.

Because Li Nan not only did not answer his question, but instead allowed the classmates around him to bump Chi Qing away with his shoulders. Chi Qing staggered two steps before he could steady his figure.

He was a little sad, but this wasn’t the first time Chi Qing was rejected. Wasn’t he rejected many times when he was young?Just when Chi Qing thought it would be the same this time, Li Nan, who was supposed to leave neatly, suddenly turned around and came back.

What caught Chi Qing’s eyes was a look of surprise and slight fascination. The interested look was incompatible with the perfunctory look just now.

“Did you draw this?” Li Nan asked softly in surprise and admiration.

Only then did Chi Qing realize that the manuscript he had prepared for the puppet had fallen into Li Nan’s hands at some point. Li Nan smiled at him and said, “Just now, the zipper of your backpack opened and the painting fell out of the bag.”

Chi Qing explained that he did not have any expensive gifts for Li Nan on his birthday, but he would make a doll that was so exquisite that it looked like a real person. The painting she held in her hand was the painting of the doll’s face.

After hearing this, Li Nan’s eyes flashed with surprise. She looked down at the face on the white paper that was so beautiful that she wished he could fall asleep, and smiled again: “On the 19th of next month, I will send you the booked hotel box location.”

Since then, Chi Qing seemed to have gained Li Nan’s favor, and would occasionally ask about the doll’s progress as if unintentionally.

Making dolls has always been extremely time-consuming and energy-consuming, but in order to please Li Nan, Chi Qing forced the entire project to be completed within a month. He even had a hunch that this would be the most perfect doll he had ever created.

Materials, paints, and brushes are all of the highest quality.

Chi Qing stared at the screen for a long time, gazing seriously and solemnly at the half-finished doll in front of him, with deep and erect facial features, thin lips, and an extremely thick beauty that even revealed a hint of demonic rule.

He couldn’t bear to take a photo of it with his mobile phone and sent it.

Time passed by against the clock, and the atmosphere became more and more anxious as the other party did not respond. Chi Qing’s fingers holding the phone were slightly wet, and he was completely in a state of high tension and panic.

“Ding dong——”

A cell phone message popped up.

Chi Qing almost jumped up with joy and accidentally touched the handmade knife placed on the table. The blade was extremely sharp and cut Chi Qing’s finger with just a slight slip. In an instant, drops of full and bright red blood spilled out.

But he was so elated that his entire chest was filled with swelling joy, making Chi Qing almost forget the pain of the cut on his finger.

Chi Qing happily held her cell phone and chatted with Li Nan, not even noticing the blood drops on her fingertips falling on the doll’s pale lips.

Its lips were as red as blood, and its eyes were as black as ink.

Chi Qing was always staring straight ahead.

It’s like coming back to life.
