Mrs. Kang had a fever! However, Ling Yiran had no idea what was going on, let alone where her mentor and his wife were!
Just then, a voice suddenly rang in her ears. “Did you have a nightmare?'
Ling Yiran instantly froze, only feeling a shadow approaching her. She stared blankly at the person in front of her. It was Jin!
However, the room was dim at the moment. She could only see his figure but not his expression.
"What did you dream about?" he asked.
"N-Nothing. I don't remember much," she said vaguely.
'Really?' His eyes glimmered in the dark. He raised his hand to gently stroke her cheek. He knew what she had dreamt about.
She dreamed of him, that woman, and her mentor.
He could hear her calling his name, her mentor’s name, and... that woman’s name in her dream!
"I'm sorry I woke you up. I'll go wash my face," said Ling Yiran as she threw off the covers and went to the bathroom.
She closed the bathroom door and looked at the mirror in front of the sink. Looking at the reflection in the mirror, she was ghastly pale.
Maybe she should be glad it was dark enough that they could not see each other's faces earlier, or maybe she would have had a real breakdown.
Mrs. Kang's kindness to her flashed through her mind. The person she once considered her mother was the one who hurt Jin the most!
