Embers

For seven whole days, Ember lay on the bed, motionless and never opened her eyes, as if she was dead.

The skin on Li Mei's cheeks collapsed quickly, and her complexion became pale and haggard.

All the powerful doctors in the Devil's Cult came to see him and said that he might never wake up again.

Li Mei didn't believe it, and found the almost omnipotent doctor Chu Jian at a high price.

Chu Jian was quite surprised when he saw Ember's closed eyes, lying there lifeless. Although he had gone crazy once, Ember was always very powerful in his impression.

"How did he become like this?"

Li Mei explained the reason why Ember became like this as calmly as possible.

After listening, Chu Jian touched his chin and said to himself: "It shouldn't be..."

He checked Ember's pulse again, and frowned slightly.

"It's very serious, and his internal organs have been injured, but it's not enough to wake up for so many days. I guess, maybe it's because he doesn't want to wake up at all."

Li Mei was startled: "Don't want to wake up?"

"It's very possible." Chu Jian said slowly, "It's possible that the current life has made his spirit very tired, making him a little disgusted with the fact that he is alive, and there is something he wants in the dream. If you fall into a deep sleep, it will be difficult to wake up again."

Li Mei paused, lowered her eyes lightly, covered the emotions in her eyes, and said calmly: "Understood, thank you genius doctor."

Chu Jian accepted it calmly, and before leaving, he glanced at the almost lifeless embers, suddenly feeling inexplicably sad.

He had met this person three times in total, two of which were when he was completely unconscious.He remembered the first time he met him before, when he fell asleep as deeply as he is now, and his brows were furrowed quietly, as if even the things in his dreams bothered him.

At that time, his hair was still as black as ink, and his young face was almost perfect, but there were indescribable injuries.

Things about him have been rumored in the Jianghu. At that time, I just sighed that this person's life is too short, but it was only when I saw him that I realized how painful the silence was.

After sending Chu Jian away, the pain on Li Mei's face dared to appear presumptuously. He squatted halfway beside Ember's bed, twisted a strand of his white hair, and his heart was twisted like a knife: "Emerald, if... soberness really makes you feel better." If you are in such pain, then you should just sleep on it."

After finishing speaking, he put his fist against his forehead, lowered his head, and couldn't help but shed tears.

Within a few days, the followers of the Devil's Cult began to notice some changes in their emissaries.

Walking is no longer slow and slow, but brisk walking, without squinting, as if passing by can bring a gust of wind.

There is no longer a gentle smile on his face, and he is often expressionless.His gentle appearance faded away, and his expression became unpredictable.

He didn't even wear the azure color he always liked, and put on frosty white clothes instead.

No matter how you look at it, it seems that there is another person's shadow.

The relationship between Ember and Li Mei has always been very close, and they often deal with things and research plans together, so at this time, it is natural and logical for Ember to take over Li Mei's job in the eyes of others.

It's just that Li Mei had her own work to do, and with Ember's work, she was too busy, so she called Shijiu to help him.

Nineteen finally got to see Ember for the first time after hearing that he was in a coma.

He held his breath and followed behind Li Mei, watching the door being gently pushed open, Shijiu felt his heart beating wildly.

After walking a few steps, he saw the man lying on the bed in a deep sleep.

The first thing I saw was the iconic snow-white hair.

Then, the pale face, the sharp outline, the straight nose, the thin lips, and the pair of tightly closed eyes.

It's good to see people who make the world eclipse.

Nineteen involuntarily looked away, feeling that his stunning gaze was a blasphemy to him.

"Huh? You kid?"

Li Mei looked at him in astonishment.

Nineteen was lying on one knee in front of the bed, with his head down, unable to see his expression clearly.

"He made me want to kneel."

Li Mei looked at him steadily.

Kneel down, get up, take a step back, and dare to raise your head: "My lord, how long has the leader been like this?"

Seeing the heartache in his eyes, Li Mei sighed slightly: "It's been twelve days."

Nineteen One Shocked: "Then why haven't you woke up, and there hasn't been a doctor recently... Could it be?!"

Li Mei nodded silently.

Nineteen's eye sockets turned red immediately.

"Don't cry." Li Mei's voice was suddenly serious.

Nineteen clenched his fists.

That's right, he is going to be the leader of the Demon Cult, so he can't cry.He must guard his Demon Cult for this person, this is his only belief since he was a child.

Ever since that person met this person, he was willing to cut off all escape routes, and never looked back.

After a whole month, Ember didn't wake up.

Li Mei not only took over his affairs, but also began to teach Nineteen how to be a leader. The two of them were so busy that they turned black and white, wishing that one day could be used as three days.

Every night, Li Mei still shared the bed with Ember as usual, lying on the side, even just listening to his breathing, he felt safe.

He didn't let others disturb him, and even Nineteen only saw Ember once that day.

Perhaps Ember will never wake up again in this lifetime.

But after all, it was his choice. He has been tired for too long, too long, and he has known him thoroughly over the years. It is known that since the day he was exterminated, he has not had a day of real relaxation.

There is almost no trace of his own participation in his life, and everything is done according to the wishes of others, as if there is an invisible and powerful force slowly pushing all of this behind him, driving him to a state of despair situation.Watching him struggling in despair, collapsing, and finally giving up completely.

If such a deep sleep can make him live a little happier, Li Mei thought, he would rather not wake up.

He raised his hand, gently smoothed Ember's slightly frowning brows, lay on his chest, and slowly fell asleep.

It was daylight, but the room was still a shade of gray.Li Mei woke up, lying next to the embers, her body unable to lift a bit of strength.

I don't know when, he also contracted the problem of embers love to dream, dreaming almost every day, and it was full of nightmares.

Another night of chaotic nightmare.

He let out a light breath, removed the fragments from his mind, and was about to get up when he casually glanced aside.

At that moment, his heart almost stopped beating.

Ember's long eyelashes trembled slightly, and trembled again.

Li Mei's heart almost reached her throat, and she stared fixedly into his eyes.

Those eyes, slowly, opened.

Deep, elusive, like an extremely beautiful lake, clear and quiet.
