In the depths of the night, in a malefic woods shrouded with a fog, a girl was sprinting with all her might as though her heart would pop out at the very next second. There were no longer any roads in the woods, and she did not know where she could head off to next. With a slip, she found herself tumbling down a slope…
"AHHHH!"
Qian Xun screamed as she bolted awake, drenched in sweat.
She watched the ceiling with widened eyes, and it was only until she realized she was at home that she discovered that it was a dream. Touching her cheeks, the only thing she felt was icy coldness.
She looked around for her thermal flask. After opening and checking that the temperature was right, she gulped down everything in a single mouthful. As the warm water filled her body, she finally felt more at ease.
Why was she having a nightmare during a casual afternoon nap? Just what was going on with her these days?
Was it because she had seen that child?
Or, was it because she had spoken to Shi Guang about the past?
Or perhaps… it was because she was getting engaged with Shi Ze?
But, what was the big deal about getting engaged?
It was not as though it was her first time.
It was the innate nature of every woman to wish they could find a good man and stay in love, pledging their lives to one another before the sacrament of marriage.
When she had gotten engaged for the first time, she truly thought that she had found a good man.
But, not longer after their engagement, that person she had thought she would spend the rest of her life with in her youthful years used her as a deal. The feeling of abandonment and betrayal sent her down the pits of despair, and she felt as though the entire world had collapsed.
That moment in her dream when she had slipped off the slope… despite it being so long ago, it was still clear as yesterday for her.
At that time, Qian Xun had contemplated ending everything with suicide, ending that foolish and naïve sense of self she had.
Yet, she did not fall off. The man had gripped her hand tightly and yanked her up. That mysterious man was cold, enigmatic and seemingly evil, yet kind.
He hugged her and declared. "You've still got me!"
Those were four simple words, yet, she was touched.
For a period of time after that, he had truly treated her really well, allowing her to feel warmth and happiness in the darkest moment of her life. At that time, she felt that other than her father, this was the person that was the best to her in her entire life!
She did not know of his identity at that time. In fact, that foolish her was ready to cast any doubts aside regarding his identity—even if he were fire, she was willing to be a moth!
It was at that time that she realized that she did not really like her fiancé that much, despite them being childhood sweethearts. Or perhaps, it was just a habit for her to be with her fiancé in the past.
That was the reason why she fell in love with him that quickly, allowing her to experience what it felt like to truly love someone. She finally understood the fiery passions of love, and how love could change someone entirely.
"Sister Xun, it's your turn." Her assistant's voice rang out, breaking her train of thoughts.
Qian Xun snapped back into reality. Shrugging, she headed out.
She headed for the restroom first. As she walked on the passage on the way back, she found herself stopping instinctively. Turning her head around to look at the end of the passage on her right, she found a tall, dark figure standing there.
The shadows did not allow her to have a clear view of his face, but there was an undeniable coldness from his gaze.
Qian Xun froze for a moment—even after so many years, she knew who that was through that familiar coldness.
