Miss Star, spoiled by her father and brother

Chapter 289 Insomnia

Xu Weiwei knew that her father couldn't stay with her for long, and she also wanted to spend more time with her father, but she had to refuse.

If her father knew how she was feeling at night, he would be very upset and would bring his worries to work, which was not what she wanted to see.

After putting his daughter into bed, adjusting the air conditioner to a suitable temperature, and finally kissing her forehead, Sifos closed the door and left Xu Weiwei's bedroom.

In the darkness, Xu Weiwei suddenly opened her eyes, without a trace of sleepiness. She knew that the most difficult time of the day had come.

Since she contracted tuberculosis, she began to suffer from insomnia all night long, and falling asleep at night became a very difficult thing. She didn't know which came first, sleeping too much during the day or not being able to sleep at night.

She had tried to force herself to stay awake during the day, but still couldn't fall asleep at night. Maybe the virus had affected her nervous system, or it might be a side effect of the antibiotics, and her insomnia became more and more serious.

When she was in the most pain, she even banged her head against the wall and pulled her hair to vent her anger. She even disliked the bed she had slept in since she was a child.

Xu Weiwei tried sleeping on the sofa, on the carpet, in the closet... Finally she found a good place - the gap between the bed and the wall.

It was very narrow, only about 50 centimeters, and the floor was hard and cold. But it was in such an environment that she could close her eyes and take a nap. If she was lucky, she could sleep for three hours.

There was no chance of getting caught. Nine to five was her insomnia period, while everyone else was fast asleep. She would return to bed in due time.

Today, Xu Weiwei also lay down in the familiar position as usual. Beta came over and licked her calf, then bit the carpet and slept at Xu Weiwei's feet. At first, it thought Xu Weiwei accidentally rolled off the bed and tried to lift her up with its head. Later, it found that the owner did it on purpose, so it stopped worrying.

"You really don't treat yourself badly at all, smart baby."

Xu Weiwei scratched Beta's back hair with her toes twice, then assumed her favorite sleeping position during this period and began to fall asleep.

Three minutes later, Xu Weiwei turned over and changed her direction; five minutes later, Xu Weiwei began to press the Shaofu and Shenmen acupoints on her hands; ten minutes later, Xu Weiwei slapped herself hard and hit her forehead against the side of the bed three times, each hit was powerful.

Xu Weiwei opened her eyes and sat up. It was this familiar feeling again. Her brain and body were extremely tired, but her mind was extremely clear. It was almost driving her crazy.

Beta was awakened by the noise. He quickly raised his head, rushed over to Xu Weiwei and licked her cheek.

Xu Weiwei's chest rose and fell violently, and she was so angry that she almost cried. She slapped herself twice. After that, her palms and face were numb, and she felt relieved.

When Beta saw her self-harming behavior, he barked "Woof!" and immediately threw himself into her arms, blocking Xu Weiwei from continuing to hurt herself.

Xu Weiwei put his arm around its neck, rubbed its head and said, "I'm fine, don't bark, or you might attract Dad."

Lady luck was not on her side tonight.

Since she couldn't sleep, Xu Weiwei simply got up, turned on the desk lamp, sat down at the desk, took out a piece of paper and a pen, and began to think about the gift she had just given him. She listed all the things she could think of on the list.

Although Dad has expressed his feelings, that is his intention. She also needs to express her feelings.

She will be living here for a long time in the future, so she has to leave a good impression on everyone. It is a good thing to be grateful for what you receive.

After thinking for a while, Xu Weiwei circled out two gifts from a string of valuable gifts.

It was definitely inappropriate to give Gantz a hairpin as Dad had said, but there was nothing wrong with the idea of ​​giving her jewelry. She had a lot of jewelry, but giving this one was a little perfunctory. Even if they didn't feel it, she knew it.

So you have to put some thought into it and give something different.

The planet of Gudel has a lot of vegetation, dense forests, mountains, rivers, lakes and streams, but no sea. It would be very meaningful if we could give them something related to the sea.

Xu Weiwei remembered that she had some pearl earrings, pearl necklaces, and mother-of-pearl bracelets and necklaces. She didn't know if she packed them when she was packing.

Standing up and walking to the cloakroom, Xu Weiwei opened the cabinet where she kept her jewelry. She rarely took the initiative to look through these things, and after searching for a while, she finally found what she wanted in a box.

The servants sorted them out by category, and the pearls were put together separately. Xu Weiwei also saw the mermaid scales she had collected on the planet Mengmed in the box, and her eyes lit up immediately.

Wouldn't it be more meaningful to give this as a gift? It not only has decorative value, but also commemorative value and humanistic value.

The skin fragments dropped by a mysterious race that has never been seen before, the mermaids, who live on a distant alien planet. It sounds extremely precious and is the perfect gift.

The local people's dressing habit is to drill a hole in jade, agate or other things and string them directly into the hair, or string them with thin thread and then braid them into the hair.

The scales are just the right size: small, round, thin, and lightweight. They come in many interesting colors.

The more Xu Weiwei thought about it, the more she felt that this idea was brilliant.

Jewelry is one of them. There is another thing, which will definitely make people laugh if you give it to other people, but it is very useful to the locals, which is a daily necessity - toothbrush.

The Gudel people also have this kind of thing, but it is made of horse hair, cow hair, pig hair, etc., and the comfort level is not high. It is naturally incomparable with the products of science and technology.

Xu Weiwei noticed it the last time she came here. Fortunately, she has an adult brain and has remembered it until now.

Now I have something that is both presentable and practical, perfect. I will pack it up a bit tomorrow and take it with me when I meet the priest.

After resolving a problem, Xu Weiwei lay back in the crevice, put on her headphones, and played ancient medical texts read aloud by electronic audio, which finally made her feel a little sleepy.
