Chapter 240: He Had a Long Dream
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Usually, Murong Qiao would be busy sitting in front of the computer at this time. Now that she had gone to bed early, it was hard not to worry.
She replied to Yang Xin, “It’s hard to say. Why don’t we tell School Hunk Huo about this? He definitely has a way.”
After all, this was someone else’s private matter. The two of them were roommates after all. It was useless to worry so it would definitely be better to let Huo Yichen comfort Qiaoqiao.
Looking at Leng Yan’s suggestion, Yang Xin’s eyes immediately lit up, and the worry in her heart was swept away by this sentence.
That’s right! School Hunk Huo would definitely make Qiaoqiao happy!
Murong Qiao, who was lying on the bed, did not know what her two roommates were thinking at all. At this moment, she was lying on the bed and emptying her mind. When she heard her cell phone vibrate again, she chose to turn it off.
“Hello, the number you have dialed is unavailable… Helio, the number you have dialed…”
Nan Xuan listened to the repeated notifications on his phone and threw the empty bottle away in frustration.
After Murong Qiao hung up the phone, other than the first call, the rest were all notifications.
He stood up shakily, his hand trying to hold onto the chair beside him. In the end, his double vision hand also missed. He couldn’t hold onto anything and fell heavily to the ground.
The smell of blood filled his nostrils, making Nan Xuan feel a little nauseous. He staggered to his feet, his mind empty. After more than ten seconds, he finally raised his hand to wipe his nose.
A glaring red color appeared on his finger. Nan Xuan stared at the color of the blood and suddenly felt a nauseating urge in his throat. He directly spat it out. However, he could not vomit anything. He could only return the way he came after drinking the wine.
“Ugh—” He covered his head.
My head hurts…
Nan Xuan’s thoughts were in a mess. What was even more unbearable was that his head was in so much pain that it was about to explode.
Relying on his instincts, Nan Xuan staggered out of the private room. His memories were stirred into countless fragments by the alcohol. In the end, he only remembered falling onto a soft bed.
However, the headache did not disappear. It was as if he had a very long dream. In his dream, he returned to the Nan family, to the days when Nan Zhi and Nan Qiao were still around, but the direction of the story was completely different. Nan Zhi was so obedient that it made people’s hearts soften and wish that they could side with her in everything. Nan Qiao was still so annoying and the things she did would still gain their disapproval.
“Brother…” In his dream, Nan Qiao was more obedient and less talkative.
Nan Xuan seemed to be in a dream, but also like a bystander who had seen a long and realistic dream.
He saw the fallen flower pot, the starting point that changed everything, and he saw the disappointed look in his own eyes as he looked at Nan Qiao.
There was also Nan Jin’s reprimand at that time, accusing Nan Qiao of hitting Nan Zhi. Countless curses formed a world that almost drove people crazy, and Nan Qiao was the center of this mad world.
“No, it’s not like that.” He subconsciously defended her as he looked at Nan Qiao hiding in the room.
His heart seemed to be clenched tightly, and even his breathing needed to be exerted.
Now that he knew Nan Zhi’s true colors, Nan Xuan realized that everyone believed Nan Zhi’s one-sided story when he turned around to look at everything. He had never considered Nan Qiao’s feelings and only knew how to blame her.
Later on…
“Nan Qiao, go easy on Little Sister. She blocked the flower pot for you. You owe her this!”
“If it wasn’t for you, Nan Zhi wouldn’t be in a wheelchair… She likes these things. Give in to her.”
“Give your shares to Nan Zhi, Qiaoqiao. She’s injured now and has no one to rely on in the future…”
The colorful colors gradually turned black and white. From a small matter to the company’s shares, everything that Nan Qiao owned went to Nan Zhi.
In the end, when he learned of Nan Qiao’s death, he saw a completely different ending.
“No… No, please…”
Seeing Nan Qiao surrounded by a few hooligans, her sobbing voice filled with despair, Nan Xuan’s heart seemed to have fallen into an endless abyss.
After a night’s rest, Murong Qiao was not affected by what happened last night at all. She woke up early to wash up and took her books to catch up on class on the eighth day of the morning.
Huo Yichen had reserved a seat for her in advance and sat at the back of the lecture theater.
“Coming.” Murong Qiao waved her hand.
As soon as she entered the classroom, she saw Huo Yichen sitting by the window. The slanting sunlight shone on half of his body, and the edge of his face and even his eyelashes were covered in a layer of golden light. He was extremely beautiful.
Huo Yichen got up and took her bag. “You’re early today.”
He knew Murong Qiao’s schedule well. She would usually arrive 10 minutes earlier but she arrived 20 minutes before class started today.
“You woke up early,” Murong Qiao replied and sat in his seat.
Although she tried her best not to let what happened last night affect her, she couldn’t sleep well and woke up not long after.
Huo Yichen quietly placed the pastries he had brought in front of Murong Qiao and observed her face. The first thing he noticed was the faint green under her eyes.
Yang Xin secretly told him that someone was suspected of harassing Murong Qiao last night and so he was a little worried about her.
Murong Qiao reached out and picked up a piece of pastry to put in her mouth. The sweet but light fragrance washed away her fatigue from waking up early. “Last night, Nan Xuan called me,” Murong Qiao suddenly said. “He drank and spouted nonsense.”
After eating the pastry, Murong Qiao, who was in a much better mood, took the initiative to mention what happened last night. Huo Yichen didn’t say anything. He just stared at Murong Qiao with his deep and calm eyes, as a qualified listener.
Murong Qiao came early, so the extra few minutes were just enough to talk about last night. She briefly explained their conversation and pursed her lips to eat the last pastry.
Huo Yichen reached out and patted her head comfortingly. “You can share your troubles with me next time.”
His actions were intimate and his gentleness towards Murong Qiao made the girls around her secretly envious.
“I didn’t think so much last night…” Murong Qiao smiled faintly, feeling a little embarrassed.
She didn’t think much of it at first, but after hearing Huo Yichen’s gentle words of concern, she suddenly felt like she was being held in his palm. Her every move was being watched. Even if she was unhappy, she would be cared for at all times.
Her face was slightly red, and the boys across the aisle were dumbfounded.
Huo Yichen turned his body to block the others’ gazes and planted a kiss on Murong Qiao’s forehead possessively.
Huo Yichen remembered Nan Xuan’s name. He would make a decision after accompanying Murong Qiao today.
The sunlight during the day should have been warm and dazzling, but it was blocked by the heavy bed curtains, so it could not shine on Nan Xuan, who was lying on the bed.
He slept fitfully, his brow furrowed and his body trembling from time to time.
“Qiaoqiao!”
Nan Xuan suddenly sat up on the bed, one hand still stretched forward, as if he wanted to leave something behind.
His expression was one of panic. It was a heartache that even he couldn’t suppress.
Nan Xuan panted heavily, trying to wake himself up. The memories that suddenly appeared in his mind made him feel especially uncomfortable.
He originally thought that it was just a dream, but after waking up, the things that happened were still vivid in his mind. It was not until he digested them that Nan Xuan realized that it was not a dream. He sat on the bed in a daze and did not say anything for a long time..
