Chapter 8

I hadn’t yet figured out the reason behind Su Yu’s sudden change in behavior when, that night, I had the dream once again.

This time, I made a point to glance at the clock on the wall at the foot of the bed. When I opened my eyes, it was exactly ten o’clock.

Entering the dream at ten and returning to reality at seven in the morning-that seemed to be the pattern.

This time, Su Yu and I woke up almost simultaneously.

Su Yu lay on his side, resting his head on the back of his hand, quietly watching me with eyes full of affection.

His gaze was enough to make me blush.

I buried half my face in the quilt, leaving only my eyes exposed. I would look at him for a moment, then nervously shift my gaze elsewhere.

I already knew the pattern of what was supposed to happen next.

The quilt rustled softly, and my heart beat like a frantic drum.

To be honest, I admit that being like this with the person I love is quite wonderful, but after what happened the previous two nights, I was a little afraid of him.

Could I turn him down?

Come to think of it, this was my dream. Surely, things should go however I wanted them to.

So, I waved my fingers in front of Su Yu like I was casting a spell. “Freeze!”

Su Yu was stunned for a moment. He caught my hand, his voice deep and husky as he spoke. “Huanhuan, be good. Let’s do it like the last two times…”

He actually had the nerve to bring up the last two times!

My body flushed with heat, and I felt like I might not be able to refuse him after all.

Right then, my ears picked up the faint sound of a baby crying-a thin, wailing sound, like the mewling of a kitten.

I immediately told Su Yu to stop and asked him, “Do you hear a child crying?”

Su Yu listened intently, then looked at me, his expression shifting slightly. “I actually do.”
