A Dream Of 8 Years That’s All About Him (8)

She was extremely sad that day, so sad that she didn’t dare to confront the fact that Gu Yu Sheng had stood her up two consecutive times.

She was so sad; a small part of her did not dare to accept reality. She believed that as long as she dialled his number, it would reach him and he would answer the phone. However, even when it reached nightfall, when the street lamps were starting to wan, the number he had given her was still an inactivated number.

In the end, after hearing the phrase, ‘The number you have dialled is currently inactive,’ who knows how many times, like an inflated ball, she clutched the phone receiver in despair, squatted down, and broke down into sobs.

Even though this was a dream, the sound of weeping was especially clear, becoming more and more distinct, distinct to the point that, in the end, Qin Zhi Ai’s body was ruthlessly shaken awake. “Miss? Miss?”

After a long while, Qin Zhi Ai finally opened her eyes and saw the taut face of the housekeeper standing by the side of her bed.

When the housekeeper saw that Qin Zhi Ai was awake, she released a long breath. “Miss, you nearly frightened me to death. Seeing that you still hadn’t gotten out of bed at even though it’s already late, I came up to check on you and then found you crying without stopping.”

Qin Zhi Ai blinked and hastily raised her hand to touch her face. It was dripping wet.

As it turned out, the extremely distinct weeping that she had heard just a moment ago was just not a dream, she had been crying along with her dream in reality……

“Miss, were you thinking about something sad? You were crying so heartbrokenly.” The housekeeper handed Qin Zhi Ai a warm cup of water.

Qin Zhi Ai accepted the cup, gave her thanks, and after drinking half a cup, she finally said, “No, it was a nightmare.”

“You had a nightmare? It scared you to that state?” The housekeeper asked curiously.

Qin Zhi Ai didn’t answer her and instead took a glance out the window and saw that the sunlight was already bright and dazzlingly, indicating it was approaching noon. Changing the topic, she said, “I’m hungry. Go downstairs and prepare me some food. I’ll come down after I wash up.”

The housekeeper could tell that Qin Zhi Ai didn’t want to speak further and did not press her with more questions. She agreed with an “Okay,” took the cup of water and left the bedroom.

After the housekeeper left, Qin Zhi Ai leaned against the headboard, and after a moment of daze, she raised her hand, rubbed her face, got off her bed, and entered the bathroom.

She hadn’t removed her makeup last night and had also cried. Her face right now was like a palette, an appalling, tragic sight.

Qin Zhi Ai took a very long time before she managed to wash her face clean. Afterwards, she sat in front of the dressing table, effortlessly made herself up into the guise of Liang Dou Kou and went down the stairs.

When she reached the bottom of the stairs, Qin Zhi Ai heard the housekeeper’s voice and turned to glance at the housekeeper’s direction. The housekeeper was on the phone.

“Miss? She’s awake. She doesn’t seem to have any big problems, but just before, when I went to her bedroom, she was crying……. Why was she crying? Miss said that she had a nightmare…….”

After the housekeeper said that line, she suddenly noticed Qin Zhi Ai and then said into the phone, “Mr Gu, Miss has come over, I’ll pa.s.s the phone over to her……”

With no explanation whatsoever, the housekeeper shoved the receiver into Qin Zhi Ai’s hand.
