Chapter 269: Love struggles in a life of near death (2) Don’t touch her

Long Pei walked up to her and stretched out his hand to push the door open...

"Wait a minute." Gu Mingxi tightened her grip on the gun, walked up to Long Pei, faced the door and used her body to block Long Pei intentionally or unintentionally. If there was any danger, at least she could protect him immediately.

Arrive at Long Pei.

She couldn't let Long Pei get any more harm.

How could Long Pei not notice the meaning of her actions? His heart warmed and he tightened his grip on the gun in his hand. She was willing to use her body to shield herself from danger, and he was the same.

At the most dangerous second, they were thinking about the same thing - to protect each other.

Gu Mingxi reached out and pushed the door, but it didn't open. It seemed to be blocked by something. Long Pei stretched out his hand to help her push it down...

The atmosphere was tense and depressing. There was a strong smell of blood in the air. The black barrel was pointed at Gu Mingxi. His stiff arms were raised in the air. His breath was disordered. His eyes were blood red and he looked very wrong.

Something seemed to fall to the ground.

Gu Mingxi saw a short man lying at the door. There was a red dot between his eyebrows. Red blood was slowly flowing down. His wide eyes were filled with disbelief.

"Ali!"

She rushed forward and hugged Long Lifei.

His body is very stiff, his body temperature is cold, and his eyes are a bit dull. Although he usually receives strict training and can fight with adult men, in the end he is just a child, killing someone for the first time.

Gu Mingxi still remembers the first time he shot and killed someone.

It happened after she jumped into the sea. Bo Yixin took her back to Country E. After her body recovered, she agreed to join the elite force in order to repay Bo Yixin.

Her acuity and marksmanship have always been very good, but due to her heart problem, she can only do analysis and command, which involves some training guidance.

At that time, Xiaobai had just joined the elite force for a few days. He was impulsive and reckless, often causing problems, and often disobeying orders.

Once on a mission, a terrorist escaped. The opponent was much stronger than Mo Xiaobai in terms of firepower and reach. Because Gu Mingxi judged it, he was unwilling to let Mo Xiaobai take the risk. Unexpectedly, Xiaobai did not obey the instructions and chased him alone.

Kill the terrorists. In order to save her, Gu Mingxi rushed to save her regardless of his own body, and fired the shot at the critical moment...

The distance was not very close, but blood still splashed onto her hands, and it seemed that it only took a short second to go from warm to cold. At that moment, she felt very frightened, and she couldn't even believe that she had killed a living life with her own hands.

When Gu Mingxi went back, he kept washing his hands and taking a shower, almost rubbing his skin to pieces. He had nightmares and often even hallucinated, seeing his hands covered in blood.

If Bo Yixin hadn't introduced her to a psychiatrist later, she would have been tortured by this psychological shadow to the point of mental breakdown.

Now A-Li is only about ten years old. It is his first time to shoot and kill someone. It is normal that he cannot accept it. She understands this feeling very well.

"It's okay, Ah Li, don't be afraid, Ah Pei and I are both here." Gu Mingxi hugged him, placed her hand on his and slowly took out the gun.

Long Lifei's numb expression seemed to be gradually recovering. He looked at Gu Mingxi in front of him and seemed to feel a trace of warmth.

Just now he heard gunshots outside, and he guessed that it must be Mingxi coming.

He stood up and waited to meet Mingxi. Unexpectedly, the door would suddenly open. The person who walked in was not the Mingxi he was expecting, but a dwarf man.

He had only seen those two men before, and always thought there were only those two men. Unexpectedly, there was another one - a dwarf.

The dwarf's eyes turned red, staring at him viciously, and shouted: "You tricked my brother and killed my brother, I will kill you!"

Long Lifei knew that he couldn't wait for Mingxi to come. If he didn't resist, he would die or the clay doll would die. He instinctively grabbed the gun hidden under the straw with his left hand and shot the man.

No aiming is more accurate than aiming.

The bullet quickly penetrated between his eyebrows, and blood spattered on the door and wall. He stared at them with wide eyes and fell against the door.

The feeling of shooting someone for the first time cannot be described in words.

He just wanted to protect himself and the clay doll, but the moment he pulled the trigger, he didn't feel at ease. Instead, he felt more empty and cold inside, as if something was drained from his body.

He didn't know what it was.

But this feeling made him sad.

All he knew was that he was no longer the same Long Lifei he was before.

Not anymore.

A few days ago, he was still missing Mingxi in the capital city. He was still the same cold Long Lifei. Although he received training every day, his hands were still extremely clean.

A few hours ago, he was beaten, and every part of his body hurt. He endured the humiliation and torture, and used his forbearance to protect the clay doll.

An hour ago, he told the clay doll that there was no need to be afraid, he would be able to rescue her and no one would be able to hurt her again.

An hour later, he was no longer the same Long Lifei. Even he himself didn't know what Long Lifei would be like in the future.

Gu Mingxi's heart ached with pain, and she hugged him tightly with her fingers, especially because the injuries all over his body attracted all her attention, and she felt so distressed that she could no longer endure it.

"It's okay, I'm by your side."

The trembling voice calmed him down so much that he didn't notice the dark figure huddled in the corner.

Long Pei scanned the entire room to make sure there was no one there. Nan Si and the others outside had also confirmed that there would not be any danger. His eagle eyes passed by the black shadows of Long Lifei and Gu Mingxi falling on the corner of the wall...

A handful of dirty and sparse hair, dark and greasy skin, it is hard to tell whether it is dirty or just the same skin color; the clothes worn by Long Lifei are also dirty, there are no shoes, and the exposed feet and calves have obvious scars and healed wounds.

scar……

The only pair of eyes that could see clearly, with clear black and white pupils, looked at him quietly and numbly, without any reaction.

It's not that she isn't afraid of Long Pei, it's that she seems to have become numb to such fear.

"...Ming, Mingxi..."

For the first time, Long Pei's voice choked up, and he suspected that he had seen it wrong.

Those eyes...

Exactly the same as Gu Mingxi.

Gu Mingxi came back to her senses and looked at him. Her stern look was different from usual. What happened? If it wasn't something serious, Long Pei would never have such a reaction.

Following Long Pei's gaze towards the corner, a clay doll with straw in its hair came into view...

In an instant, Gu Mingxi was stunned. The hands holding Long Lifei had froze and fell down weakly. Incredibility and disbelief were written in his eyes...

Long Lifei only felt that the atmosphere was weird, and their reaction when they saw the clay doll was too strange.

Gu Mingxi stood up slowly and walked towards the corner step by step. It was only a few steps away, but it seemed like he had walked for centuries.

I don't know when my eyes were wet with tears, and my throat was so sore that I couldn't make any sound.

The sentence "Yan'er" is stuck in my throat and I can't spit it out.

No matter how embarrassed and ugly the child in front of her is, she will never admit that she is her daughter, her - Yan'er.

Long Pei stood there, his expression still calm, but his heart was already turbulent. Without any DNA test, he could recognize the girl in front of him as their daughter at a glance.

Long Ziqi!!!

Mingxi didn't admit his mistake, and he didn't admit it either.

People who thought they were completely lost in this life thought they would never see them again in this life, leaving only a lifetime of longing and remembrance. They never thought that one day they would see each other again.

Unexpectedly, the dead can really be resurrected.

"Yan, son..." The soft voice overflowed from her lips, and her pale face was already covered with tears, and she was sobbing.

She stretched out her hand to embrace the most precious thing in her life, but what she didn't expect was——

The clay doll seemed to be frightened, and there was a strong sense of fear in her eyes. She grabbed the hand she extended and bit it hard, and blood gushed out the moment she exerted force.

pain!

Gu Mingxi frowned and looked at her greedily with watery eyes. Even if Yaner bites off her entire hand now, she still has no complaints.

"...Mingxi!" Long Lifei stared at the clay doll with gloomy eyes, and his weak voice sounded almost like a command, "Let go!"

She was unmoved and bit her tightly. I don't know if it was an illusion, but those big clean eyes were full of hatred!

That hateful look made Gu Mingxi's heart tighten and hurt!

Her daughter hates herself, shouldn't she?

Hate it!

She didn't protect Yan'er well!

Long Pei suppressed his fluctuating emotions and stepped forward. Even if it was Yan'er, he would not allow her to hurt Mingxi. And it seemed that Yan'er didn't remember Mingxi and was full of hostility towards her!

"Don't move!" Gu Mingxi didn't even look at Long Pei but she knew what he wanted to do. If biting herself would make Yan'er feel better, what does it matter if she bleeds a little or feels a little pain!

Heartache flowed in her dark eyes, looking at her pale face covered with tears. If her left hand hurt so much, how could her right hand not understand?

Gu Mingxi slowly knelt down and looked at her level. He saw the scars all over her body, as if a knife had cut the same wounds on her body one by one.

A terrible thought flashed through Long Lifei's mind, and a gloomy chill surged down his spine.

Then, self-denial.

How could it be possible? She wasn't already——dead.

"Yan'er, I'm mommy..." Xing's eyes were dim and her voice was choked. Every word she squeezed out was very difficult.

She remained unmoved. When she heard the word "Mommy", her mood became even worse. She bit her hand harder, almost biting off a piece of flesh on her hand.
