The door opened, and a child about four or five years old walked out from behind the door. He rubbed his sleepy eyes and looked at Chu Ping aggrievedly.
"Dad, please don't be angry with me and mom."
"Mother?"
What's all this...
Chu Ping didn't react for a while.
Chu Ping looked down at the little boy wearing bear pajamas in front of him, but the image of the little boy under the overpass emerged in his mind.
"This boy is like a smaller version of Duan Lei."
The little boy under the overpass is called Duan Lei. This was what the woman in the unfinished building told Chu Ping.
"Am I still in a dream?"
With Jiang Qing's experience, Chu Ping immediately guessed a possibility.
"Daddy, can you take you to the bathroom first?"
Chu Ping knelt down and touched the little boy's head.
The little boy who was originally aggrieved suddenly became happy and hurriedly grabbed the hand that touched the screen, as if he was worried that Chu Ping would lose it.
"I won't lose it."
Chu Ping understood the little boy's thoughts and opened his mouth to comfort him.
The little boy seemed to trust Chu Ping and nodded repeatedly.
"If this little boy is really the little boy under the overpass, then the mother he mentioned is probably the woman in the unfinished building."
While Chu Ping was waiting for the little boy outside the toilet, he looked at the room and suddenly felt a strange feeling.
"Am I trapped in a dream?"
Chu Ping thought of the woman from the unfinished building who was dragged into the diary by Jiang Qing when he was in the unfinished building.
"Now it seems that there is a high probability that it is that woman's dream."
Chu Ping suddenly became vigilant. He didn't know what the woman's purpose was in dragging him into the dream.
"Sister Jiang is so unreliable that she didn't devour the other party."
Chu Ping scolded Jiang Qing for his unreliable behavior while looking around him warily.
The TV in the living room was emitting a pale light, and the voice of the host inside started to become a little weird. It was like a ghost whispering in your ears at night. The voice was low and hoarse, as if it was trying to drag you in.
Another place.
Next to the kitchen is the little boy's bedroom. The door to the bedroom is open at this time, but there is no light inside, so it is pitch dark and cannot be seen clearly.

Opposite the little boy's bedroom, next to the TV, is also his bedroom. The door to the bedroom has been closed at some point.
"I'm the only one in my room, so where is the little boy's mother?"
Chu Ping's eyes continued to move deeper into the room, which seemed to be wrapped in thick darkness and could not be seen clearly at all.
"Is there another room there?"
Chu Ping walked towards the darkness, as if there was a power to attract him there.
As soon as I took a step forward, the sound of pumping water could be heard in the bathroom.
Chu Ping's eyes regained clarity.
"I almost got him," Chu Ping was already sure. There must be something hidden in the darkness. "I just don't know if it's the woman from the unfinished building or some other weird existence."
The bathroom door opened and the little boy came out.
"Dad, I'm done."
The little boy's childish voice sounded behind Chu Ping.
Chu Ping turned around, showed a loving smile, and then hugged the little boy.
"Can daddy take you back to your room?"
The smile on the little boy's face is like a blooming flower.
"Okay, I like daddy's hugs best."
"Then daddy will test you. What's your name?" Chu Ping's smile really looked like that of a doting father.
"My name is Duan Lei, and my mother likes to call me Leile."
The little boy Duan Lei seemed to be proud of answering the "Dad" question.
Her pink little face was raised upwards, as if you were about to praise me.
"Leilei is awesome."
Chu Ping touched Duan Lei's head, with a "You are awesome" expression on his face.
The little boy Duan Lei seemed to find it very helpful, hugging Chu Ping's neck and not letting go.
"The family is quite harmonious, but I don't know what caused the quarrel."
Chu Ping sent the little boy Duan Lei back to his room, but he just stopped in front of the door and did not go in.
The dark bedroom made Chu Ping feel a sense of fear from the bottom of his heart.
"It's better not to go in."
Chu Ping put the little boy Duan Lei down and let him go in by himself.
Seeing the little boy Duan Lei enter the room, Chu Ping closed the door.
"Huh, the little boy looks cute. Why is he so scary after death?"
Don’t look at Chu Ping just now
(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)
He was able to cope with it with ease, but in fact he was already panicking inside, fearing that if he said something wrong, the little boy would be alienated again.
Now that the little boy Duan Lei was safely returned to his room, Chu Ping breathed a sigh of relief.
"If this is really that woman's dream, how can I get out of here?"
Chu Ping looked into the darkness, as if the answer he wanted was there.
"Creak——"
In the thick darkness, it seemed like a heavy door slowly opened.
"The rightful owner is here?"
Chu Ping's heartbeat began to accelerate, as if what came out of there would be a terrifying existence.
Chu Ping swallowed hard, he didn't know what would happen next.
"The child is asleep?"
What Chu Ping didn't expect was that a gentle female voice came from the darkness.
Chu Ping was stunned for a moment. He remembered that the voice was that of the woman in the unfinished building. The woman who was dragged into the diary by Jiang Qing did not expect that she would follow her here.
"Well, I've fallen asleep." Chu Ping suppressed the panic in his heart and said to the woman in the dark.
The woman's voice was very soft, like a stream of water caressing Chu Ping's cheek.
"It doesn't feel malicious." Chu Ping felt a little uneasy.
"Does your head still hurt?"
The woman stood in the darkness and seemed to have no intention of coming out.
"Well...it doesn't hurt anymore."
"That's good, don't drink so much in the future," the woman's voice paused, "You are still an associate professor no matter what. It's not good to act like a drunk and act crazy when you're drunk, and it's not good for people to see the impact."
"Drink? Be drunk? Associate professor?"
These words kept swirling in Chu Ping's mind. He remembered that Han Sanpin once told him about women's families.
The woman's husband seemed to be a teacher at the Provincial Medical College, but Chu Ping didn't expect that he was actually an associate professor.
"I heard Leilei say that we had a fight..."
Chu Ping looked like he was still drunk, as if he couldn't remember what he had done before when he was drunk.
The woman in the darkness was obviously stunned for a moment. The other party's reaction made Chu Ping suddenly tremble in his heart, and he began to think about what he said wrongly just now.
"You...it seems like you haven't called him Leilei for a long time."
