Chapter 543: Chapter 545: Had a Nightmare
She was deeply asleep, not making a single movement.
Chu Yuxiao knew she was exhausted, so he too simply washed up and got into bed to hold her as they slept together.
Not long after, Chu Yuxiao also drifted off to sleep.
Meanwhile, on Su Yan’s wrist, the Dustless Pearl began to change.
The yellow bead, round and smooth like jade, worn on her wrist, emitted a circle of soft, yellow light.
After a few flickers, the light vanished.
At the same time, in her dream, Su Yan found herself in a world of white mist.
She could see nothing around her.
Streams of white mist floated around her body, giving her the sense of being in a celestial realm of the mortal world.
She tried walking around but couldn’t escape the white mist nor did she encounter anyone.
Suddenly, clear and crisp harp music sounded nearby, melodious like the tinkling of a spring, incredibly pleasing to the ear.
Su Yan followed the direction of the music.
Before long, she saw someone sitting cross-legged on the ground amidst the mist, a harp resting on their knees, playing intently.
Su Yan couldn’t make out his face but could see the white sleeves of his robe fluttering as he played.
She wanted to approach and ask for directions, but after parting the layers of mist, the person had disappeared.
Looking around, Su Yan suddenly spotted a slender girl in white clothing, standing at the edge of a cliff, her back to Su Yan.
Her foot shifted towards the edge of the cliff as if she was considering—jumping off!
Su Yan, shocked, hurried forward to grab her, but the girl had already leaped down.
Due to inertia, Su Yan couldn’t steady her footing and also fell down.
Screaming, she reached out to grab something, but there was nothing to hold on to, just the sensation of falling endlessly.
It seemed as if there was no bottom.
That fear of falling off the cliff finally made her wake up screaming.
Chu Yuxiao was startled awake by her screams as well.
Seeing her sitting there, her soul still in disarray, sweat on her forehead, and her eyes lost and helpless,
he knew at once that she must have had a nightmare.
...
I’ve never slacked off, yet you’ve been slacking. Why haven’t the favorites and votes increased, huh? Boo-hoo, I’m begging here, don’t bully me!
