The sight before her was a pitch-black, void-like night, with nothing else in sight.
But soon, someone turned on the room’s light, followed by Lv Nan Nan’s voice, shouting, "Nuannuan, what’s wrong with you?"
He Meisui also woke up, leaned toward Shi Nuan’s bed, and called her, "Nuannuan..."
Shi Nuan had sweat on her forehead, lightly panting, her gaze shifting between the two faces, then she gently shook her head, "Nothing... It’s nothing..."
He Meisui remembered how earlier this afternoon Ou Xiaoning mentioned that Shi Nuan went into the wrong KTV room and seemed to encounter something unfavorable.
Quickly, she asked, "Nuannuan, did you have a dream? Why don’t you come over and sleep with me?"
The bed was a single, but two people could squeeze together and sleep if necessary.
However, Shi Nuan shook her head again, "No need, I... I want to make a phone call..."
He Meisui and Lv Nan Nan exchanged a glance, especially Lv Nan Nan, who had just checked the time. It was four in the morning.
At this time, who did she want to call?
Shi Nuan got out of bed, took her phone to the balcony, and closed the sliding door. The night, as dark as ink, soaked into her consciousness.
The cold wind blew on her face, calming her thoughts significantly.
She found Ji Xia’s number on her phone and dialed it.
The phone rang for quite a while on the other end before someone picked up.
Ji Xia’s voice, slightly blurred with sleepiness, came through, "Nuannuan?"
Shi Nuan took a deep breath and said, "Um, Sister Xia..."
Ji Xia was quite surprised that Shi Nuan would call her so early and promptly asked, "Nuannuan, what’s wrong with you?"
"Sister Xia, I... I had that dream again..."
"That dream?" Ji Xia paused for a moment, "Could it be..."
"Yes, it’s the dream I once told you about..."
Ji Xia took a deep breath, not knowing what to say.
For many years, Shi Nuan often had a dream, in which there was a boy wearing a white shirt.
She couldn’t see the boy’s face clearly, but he felt very familiar, and then the boy would be engulfed in a swath of blood.
Actually, Shi Nuan hadn’t had this dream for a very long time, or more precisely, ever since she got together with Shen Zui, she hadn’t had this dream...
Later, when Shen Zui left, Shi Nuan thought it was quite good because she always felt she was a harbinger of bad luck and would bring misfortune to Shen Zui.
But unexpectedly, after so many years, she had that dream again...
Ji Xia said in a deep voice, "Nuannuan, you... you shouldn’t overthink it, it’s just a dream..."
In the past, Shi Nuan was young, and Ji Xia would coax her by all means. But now, Shi Nuan was no longer a child, she understood the difference between dreams and reality, and knew how to handle things.
Shi Nuan nodded, "I know... I called you now, Sister Xia, because I need your help!"
"Help? What do you need help with?"
"Letian Tang Entertainment Club, KTV room on the fourth floor, room 4109. I want you to help me find out who booked this room yesterday afternoon!"
Ji Xia was puzzled, "What happened? Why do you want to investigate that?"
Shi Nuan’s dark eyes flickered, her thin lips slightly pressed together, and she said, "I suspect... Shen Zui has returned!"
Xiao Wujun: Some friends mentioned that Nuannuan is too heartless, and why doesn’t Second Uncle confess directly to Nuannuan... Well, both Second Uncle and Nuannuan are extremely sensitive people. Nuannuan wants revenge, but she isn’t the type to stop at nothing for it; that’s not the Nuannuan that Second Uncle loves.
She wants to have no regrets, to owe nothing to anyone, and Second Uncle fulfills that for her. So, he only dares to subtly express his goodness to her, by labeling it as, for example, because you remind me of a woman I loved, because of Xiao Chuan, because I want your father’s company... In short, the thing he’s afraid to admit is that it’s because I love you...
