A Doll Made By One’S Own Hands—— Chapter 9

Chapter 9 Doll

On Li Nan’s birthday, Chi Qing made preparations early. He first went to the morning market in advance to buy cheap, high-quality, budding flowers, and then opportunistically paid the flower shop owner a small fee to delicately package them with beautiful flower ribbons.

He bought a huge gift box online a few days ago, and the courier just delivered it this morning. Chi Qing carefully opened the thing, and first stepped in slowly to see if it could accommodate it. After confirming that it was all right, he gently put the doll in, for fear of getting a little damaged during the transportation.

Chi Qing knelt down and stared at the completely lifelike face with his dark eyes. He couldn’t help but stretched out his fingers to touch it for the last time. The texture was really soft to the touch, and the corners of Chi Qing’s mouth raised an arc of satisfaction.

He was sure that this was not only the most outstanding and exquisite work in his history, but also the most amazing gift Li Nan received this year.

Chi Qing took one last look at the artwork under his hands, slowly sealed the carton, and tied it neatly and tightly with a beautiful ribbon that girls would like.

With only one hour left before the time set by Li Nan, Chi Qing set out from the rental house with his things. The things he carried were large, causing the driver to frequently look at him through the rearview mirror. Finally, he couldn’t suppress his curiosity and asked: “Young man, what do you have in this box?”

Chi Qingyan said concisely: “A gift for others.”

Drivers are very good at chatting with passengers. Seeing this, they couldn’t help but became interested and asked a few more questions. At this time, Chi Qing’s expression became more languid and he answered concisely with one word.

The driver saw that he didn’t want to talk much, and he didn’t ask for trouble. He just drove the person to his destination and then started the engine again and left.

Before leaving, he glanced at the receding figure through the rearview mirror again, and he couldn’t help but feel a subtle curiosity in his heart. Previously, he noticed that the other person’s arms were tightly wrapped around the carton, and his fingers were always caressing it lingeringly from time to time.

If you are so reluctant to part with it, why would you still give it as a gift?

—

The carton was very heavy, and it was extremely difficult for Chi Qing to move it alone, not to mention that he was holding a bouquet of flowers in his hand, so he had no choice but to ask the hotel front desk staff for help.

“Thank you.” Chi Qing wiped the sweat off his face and thanked her hurriedly, then continued to ask: “Can you store the things here first and then take them out when you come out later.”

The front desk clerk nodded, “What box number did you reserve?”

Chi Qing told the box number that Li Nan sent in advance, and once again begged the other party to keep it safe for him for a while, and then walked to the elevator entrance under the guidance of the waiter.

But just as he was halfway there, a slight rustling sound appeared inexplicably at the eardrum, as if someone had grabbed a handful of fine sand in the palm of his hand and was twisting it with his fingertips. It was also like a deep sound that could only be made by the flow of electricity, which gave Chi Qing a momentary tinnitus.

“Qingqing…” It was a whisper so low that it was hoarse.

This vague voice that suddenly appeared from his ears made Chi Qing pause. There were many people walking back and forth in the hall. Chi Qing was not sure where the voice came from, nor was he sure whether the vague tone was calling him. After all, he might have heard wrongly.

“Look back…”

“Don’t…”

Chi Qing turned to look at the waiter beside him, and found that he was looking at him with slight doubts, as if he didn’t understand why Chi Qing stopped suddenly. This showed that the other party did not hear this strange murmur at all.

Chi Qing tilted his head, thought for a few seconds, and then continued to stride toward the elevator entrance with the waiter.

Because a lot of things have happened recently, his mental state is not as good as before. For example, what happened just now is probably because he was hallucinating.

The author has something to say:

Dear babies, because I want to be on the list, I have to control the word count recently, sorry for that.

Bow and thank you all for your support.
