The Strong Beauty is a Goddess in Showbiz: Chapter 173 He bent down and picked up Qi Wu
With the soft and warm touch still remaining on his wrist, Qi Wu leaned tiredly on his seat and fell asleep.
Jin Si was left sitting alone in the driver's seat, feeling a surge in her heart because of what she just said.
Like a menacing giant wave, even if it collides with countless reefs blocking the road, it still rushes around and roars tirelessly, hitting Jin Si's chest violently again and again, making his heart beat as deafening as a drum.
He wanted to tighten the strength in his palms, but found that there was no point of focus, and even the focus in his eyes became void.
It wasn’t until he laid his eyes on Qi Wu that the focus in his eyes gradually became clear.
Jin Si couldn't help but curse in a low voice.
—Jin Si, you may be sick.
With the focus refocused, Jin Si calmed down and hid everything that was wrong just now under his cold face.
He started the car and left the set.

He brought Qi Wu home.
However, one thing soon caused Jin Si trouble.
He parked the car in the garage, put his arm on the car door, leaned his head on it and looked at the sleeping Qi Wu.
How is he going to bring her up?
His eyebrows were furrowed, and his eyes were tangled and strange.
There was silence in the car, except for the sound of two people breathing intertwined with each other.
After a long time, Jin Si opened the car door, got out of the car, came to Qi Wu, and opened the passenger door.
He bent down and took Qi Wu out.
His movements were very unfamiliar, but he was also very cautious, for fear of waking the person in his arms.
Qi Wu put an arm around Jin Si's neck. She was very light, so Jin Si didn't put much effort in picking her up.
Jin Si lowered his eyes, his nose filled with Qi Wu's quiet aura, which was more addictive than poppies.
This distance is too close.
He took a deep breath, closed the car door, and left the garage with Qi Wu in his arms.

Jin Si put Qi Wu back on the bed in her previous bedroom.
Looking at Qi Wu, who was so quiet and well-behaved even when sleeping, Jin Si couldn't help but smile bitterly, and he calmly knelt down in front of her.
Seeing him help her take off her shoes so naturally, Jin Si couldn't help but laugh at himself in his heart - even the nanny didn't do it as seriously as he did.
After taking off Qi Wu's shoes and putting them aside, Jin Si stood up and covered her with a quilt. Looking at her beautiful and peaceful sleeping face, he said out of nowhere: "Good night."
Jin Si himself was stunned for a moment when these two words came out of his mouth.
Fortunately, Qi Wu was still sleeping deeply and did not hear this good night which contained complex emotions.
Jin Si didn’t know whether to be grateful or annoyed for a moment.
With two emotions in mind, he walked out of Qi Wu's room.

That night, Jin Si had a strange dream.
Everything in the dream felt extremely real to him, but it was blurred in his eyes.
He could only vaguely see the towering palaces and temples. These palaces looked so glorious and solemn, as well as the decay and decline that could not be concealed.
He seemed to hear an old man wearing a white robe standing on the long ladder, looking down at him with an extremely arrogant tone and attitude.
And he was standing on the bottom step.
A vague and distant voice came: "General, if you want to see the priest, you must go through various reports. In the end, the priest will decide whether to see you."
He can no longer distinguish between reality and fiction.
He just felt that this old man was an eyesore, and the uncontrollable murderous intention in his heart made him want to kill him on the spot.
He would not let himself be unhappy, so he did what he thought. However, just when he was about to take action, the scene suddenly changed -
The obstructive old man has disappeared, and what comes into view is the interior of the palace, which is arched with countless columns.
Countless pale golden curtains hang down from the middle of the palace, falling in every corner of the palace. Candlesticks of different shapes stand on both sides of the palace, with candles lit on them, illuminating the way to the highest place.
The distance was too far, and due to the obstruction of layers of curtains, he could vaguely detect a person sitting on the top of the round platform, who was quietly watching his every move.
His arrival did not surprise the other party.
At this moment, the other party’s calm and distant voice came from high up—
“I am the general ordered by Zi Wei.”
He was stunned for a moment, and infinite desire surged out of his heart for no reason. He wanted to get close to her at all costs.
However, the more he longed and pursued, the more the ethereal figure moved further away from him.
Until all the candles in the temple were extinguished, he fell into a dead darkness and could not extricate himself.
The dampness and coldness hit him one after another. He was like a drowning man, constantly running forward in the darkness, trying to escape from the predicament in front of him.
Until a vague sigh sounded in my ears.
—! !
Jin Si suddenly woke up from his sleep.
He was panting heavily, and there was a thin layer of cold sweat on his forehead. All of this was obviously because of the dream just now.
He looked at the already dim sky outside the window with a slightly worried eyebrow, and a trace of surprise flashed in his eyes.
Jin Si looked away, his brows furrowed, and there was still unconcealable surprise in his eyes.
In the previous twenty-eight years, he had never had a dream.
Because nothing can trouble him, and no one can enter his dreams.
However, yesterday he was trapped in a strange nightmare. But was such a real feeling really just a dream?
Jin Si didn’t know what this meant.
There was a deep gloom lingering between his brows that lingered.
*
When Jin Si walked out of the door, he already saw Qi Wu sitting on the sofa looking at the pink pig.
This familiar scene made Jin Si suddenly think that they were back to before.
But when Qi Wu turned his head and looked at him quietly, Jin Si woke up. It was no longer the same now.
He calmed down, walked towards her, and asked with a half-smile: "Do you still remember why you are here?"
"Well"
Qi Wu nodded with a magnanimous expression: "I forgot to bring the key."
"Very good." Upon hearing this answer, Jin Si raised the corner of his mouth, "It's good that you still remember it, so that you don't have to pretend that I abducted you."
Qi Wu retorted unconvinced: "I don't know how!"
Jin Si stared at her deeply, and that absurd dream appeared in his mind for no reason.
He thought that if he could see clearly the face of the man sitting high on the round platform in the dream, he would definitely look like Qi Wu.
There is no reason, he is so sure.
Qi Wu looked at him with confusion as he suddenly stopped moving, stretched out his hand and waved it in front of him, and said warmly: "Jin Si, we will be late if we don't go out."
Jin Si came back to his senses, put away the obscure look in his eyes, and nodded casually: "Let's go."
