Chapter 277 The Gangster's Adopted Daughter 23 Telling Ghost Stories

The lamb pouted his lips, "One cup, one cup, one cup! One cup will do!"

"You liar." As he said this, Nie Linjiu smiled and reached out to pinch her mouth.

The lamb mumbled incoherently, "You're blocking my view of the TV!"

The two of them watched each other until they had dinner, and Xiaoyang's posture changed from being next to him to leaning against him, and finally she lay entirely on his legs, watching TV sideways.

After feeding her a bag of potato chips, Nie Linjiu refused to give her any snacks. He also stopped watching TV and read a book with the title written in bold letters, "Good Mothers Give Their Children a Good Future."

Xiaoyang is no longer surprised. This is the third book he has read in the past few days. As expected of a man who taught himself in college, he reads very quickly and can grasp the essence of the book.

She felt that he was ready to apply for a job as a nanny.

“I don’t want to go to school.”

The lamb brought it up during dinner.

Nie Linjiu thought for a while and asked, "Why?"

"I just don't want to. I want to review at home. Is that not okay?"

Nie Linjiu remembered reading in a book that children need certain interpersonal relationships. If they don’t want to communicate with outsiders, it may be because their interpersonal relationships with others are not handled properly.

So Nie Linjiu asked her: "Are you unhappy at school?"

The original owner was indeed unhappy at school, but that was not the reason for Xiaoyang. She just simply didn't want to go to school.

So she told the truth: "No, I don't like reading."

What a terrible answer.

Even the open-minded parent Nie Linjiu frowned. It seemed that the child was spoiled too much. Was this his rebellious period?

Nie Linjiu organized his words. He never spoke so much in front of others, but when he was in front of his daughter, he either argued or lectured her every day.

"Little Lamb, although I really want to tell you that I will always support you no matter what happens to you, I also want to tell you that with a certain amount of knowledge, you will see things differently. Reading is very important. You may not realize its importance now, but every day in the future, its effect will be reflected in you."

"I don't want to preach too much. I think school is also a place to train yourself. I don't want to limit your interpersonal relationships to the few people at home. You won't be happy, little sheep."

Ok……

The lamb curled his lips, knowing that he was doing it for his own good, and did not bring it up again. At worst, he could just go back to school!

Since the little sheep was so well behaved that she didn't argue, Nie Linjiu allowed her to choose a story herself when he told her a bedtime story.

The somewhat shameful habit of telling bedtime stories was proposed by Nie Linjiu after he read some book. The general idea was that it could help to strengthen the relationship between father and daughter, but the person who wrote the book probably didn't know that someone would tell a bedtime story to a daughter of their age.

At first the lamb wanted to get closer to the two of them, but then he discovered, hey, it’s so easy to sleep!

Every time he was talking, he would fall into a deep sleep. It was very useful.

Nie Linjiu also discovered that if he stayed in Xiaoyang's room for a while, he would feel calmer. After returning to his room to sleep, he seemed to still be able to smell the faint fragrance on her body. He fell asleep very quickly and had a dreamless night.

The little lamb curled up in the quilt, wrapping himself up like a cicada pupa, leaving only his clear eyes like glass beads exposed, looking at Nie Linjiu expectantly.

She chose a ghost story today.

She was the type who was both naive and playful. She was actually terrified, but she always pretended to be calm on the surface and just said, "It's okay, I'm a little scared."

This hobby was not hers before. She had always been alone. When she was young, a sister from the orphanage told them a ghost story. That night, she bit the quilt and cried alone, and could not sleep all night.

Later she never dared to look at these things again.

Then, she started to complete missions and met people who could accompany her. She was no longer alone. Even if she read a lot of ghost stories, she still had someone to accompany her at night and could fall asleep in his arms.

She wasn't that scared anymore.

Nie Linjiu actually didn’t want to tell ghost stories. No father would tell his daughter a bedtime story that was a ghost story…

But the lamb's urging eyes were too heartbreaking, and he thought, maybe she just wasn't afraid of ghosts?

So with only a night light on, he began to slowly tell the story...

“They discovered that the pupils of the sculptures they entered had turned red.”

"Suddenly, a trembling voice rang out from the crowd, 'I remember... when we came here, its eyes were clearly looking to the right...'"

"..."

After the story was told, the person in the quilt was still asleep and didn't look very scared, so Nie Linjiu felt relieved.

"Go to sleep, good night."

"Good night."

After Nie Linjiu left, Xiaoyang closed her eyes, but the overly quiet surroundings made her feel a little nervous.

Oh, it’s no big deal, there’s no such thing in the world, she comforted herself.

Within two minutes, she opened her eyes and looked around vigilantly. Oh, nothing happened.

But that night light was like an eye in the fog, staring at the lamb in the darkness.

The lamb swallowed to stop himself from thinking too much.

Unfortunately, there was a sudden flash of lightning outside the window. The house was bright for a second. The lamb held his breath and waited. The next second, a loud thunder sounded.

Rumbling--

The little lamb didn't dare to move in the quilt, trying to force himself to shut down the computer, but it was obvious that it was useless.

Her mind was filled with all kinds of faceless ghosts covered in blood, which made her shiver all over.

Two minutes later, another loud thunderclap made her burst into tears.

There is no way, she is so fragile, the lamb's heart is about to stop. It is not good for the room to be too big, it feels like there are "dirty things" everywhere, she is really scared.

But she didn't dare cry out loud, for fear of scaring those "dirty things". She could only hold back her tears and hide herself in the stuffy quilt.

She didn't know how much time had passed, but she still didn't fall asleep. She was so awake that she began to hate herself for being too confident. If she had known earlier, she should have just listened to the fairy tales obediently, at least they could hypnotize her.

The lamb took a deep breath, but still couldn't fall asleep.

I couldn't sleep. I was so scared and anxious that I started to cry.

This cycle went on and on, and when the lamb almost thought he would have to stay awake until dawn, the door opened.

The lamb's heart was in his throat and he was so scared that his heart almost stopped beating.

"Fell asleep?"

The quilt was lifted up, and the familiar voice made the lamb feel relieved. He sniffed and looked at him.

Nie Linjiu knew that she was not asleep. There was a loud thunder outside and she had just heard a ghost story, so he was still a little worried and wanted to come over to check.
