Dreams Are a Reflection of One’s Waking Thoughts
She looked at the photo and yearbook in her hands. If those weren’t real memories, how did the ink stain and tears come about? Was Sheng Nanxuan really her high school classmate? Her memories were blurry from the passage of time.
She pressed her hands against her head and thought for a long time. She remembered a lot of incidents from high school, but the faces of some of her classmates were fuzzy, especially the boys because she did not interact much with them. If Sheng Nanxuan was really her high school classmate, they probably didn’t interact much, right?
Gong Mo put down the photo. She would go to sleep first. She still had to go to the hospital tomorrow to confirm her pregnancy.
In the dark, Gong Mo opened her eyes groggily and saw sparkling stars in the distance. The wind blew by her ear, bringing the scent of green grass to her nose. Her body felt like it was floating on clouds as it moved forward. More and more stars appeared around her. She reached out and a star flew between her fingers. freewebno(v)el
“They’re fireflies!” she exclaimed in astonishment.
“Mm,” said a man from below her.
She looked down and saw that she was on a man’s back. She did not feel afraid at all and even felt blessed. She hugged his neck tightly and smiled, leaning in closer. free(w)ebnovel
He carried her across green grass, fireflies all around them. It was both peaceful and beautiful and there was no one but them around. She wanted to see his face and know who he was. “Stop,” she said to him.
He was silent.
Gong Mo grew uneasy. “Who are you? Are you Sheng Nanxuan?”
He did not reply.
Gong Mo jumped towards the ground anxiously and woke up. Opening her eyes, she found that it was daylight. Gong Mo sat up and rubbed her forehead.
The man in the dream had made her feel safe. It was a pity that she couldn’t see his face. However, dreams were a reflection of one’s waking thoughts. Other than Sheng Donglin, the only man she saw was Sheng Nanxuan. Sheng Donglin was a player and would definitely not treat her that well. Could it be Sheng Nanxuan then? But he was still a stranger!
Gong Mo had nothing to say to herself. How could she dream of being so intimate with a stranger!
“Gong Mo hasn’t woken up yet. You’re so caring towards her,” she heard Mama Gong say.
Gong Mo froze. She got off the bed, opened the door, and found Sheng Nanxuan standing in the living room.
Seeing that she was awake, Mama Gong said sweetly, “Come eat breakfast. Nanxuan has bought soy milk and steamed dumplings.”
“Oh…” Gong Mo closed the door and changed her clothes.
After washing up, she walked to the dining room and said softly, “I don’t think I’m supposed to eat before the examination.”
Mama Gong was instantly unhappy the moment she heard this and put down her half-eaten steamed dumpling.
Sheng Nanxuan watched them and said, “I’ll accompany Momo to the hospital and bring her back to eat after the examination.”
Mama Gong looked at Gong Mo. “Don’t you need to go to work?”
Gong Mo remembered that she hadn’t explained what had happened at work and could only say, “The magazine publisher doesn’t want me to work for them anymore.”
“What do you mean?!” Mama Gong was shocked.
“The Editor-in-Chief’s daughter is the woman Sheng Donglin was having an affair with. She didn’t want me to work there, so I’ve been fired.” Gong Mo smiled sadly, “Don’t worry, Mom, I’ll look for a job soon.”
“How can you work when you’re pregnant?” Sheng Nanxuan interrupted. “You don’t have to worry about work. I’ll provide for you.”
Upon hearing this, Mama Gong scoffed coldly, “Provide for her? How are you going to do that? Weren’t you chased out of the Sheng Family? Although they say that a tiger will never eat its cubs, your father will definitely make life hard for you after what you did. You won’t be able to find a job either!”
