Having been given a second chance at life, who would still want to pursue her?

The air conditioning in the room was on full blast.

On the bed, Lin Qingxue was curled up, but her whole body was burning up.

She clutched her chest tightly with her hand.

My body trembles slightly from time to time, as if I'm being electrocuted.

She bit her lip tightly and let out a barely audible murmur.

"No...no."

Lin Qingxue kept her eyes tightly closed, her breathing rapid, and her entire face flushed.

She almost bit her lip until it bled.

Until I don't know what happened in the dream.

Lin Qingxue sat up abruptly.

"Don't!"

Bang!

Lin Qingxue leaned against the headboard, her thin clothes soaked with sweat and clinging tightly to her body, revealing glimpses of her delicate white skin.

Her whole body heaved, and her heavy breathing still echoed in the room.

She just stared blankly ahead, seemingly still not having come to her senses.

After a long while.

"Woof! Woof!"

A puppy's barking came from outside the window.

Lin Qingxue then came to her senses.

She turned her head stiffly and looked out the window.

Sunlight streamed in through the windows of the somewhat old-fashioned bungalow.

Outside, there are trees, grass, and wisps of smoke rising from chimneys.

This is not a hotel.

It was a bungalow on a hilltop.

This is Chan Kin-kei's home.

Lin Qingxue's breathing gradually slowed down.

My chest no longer heaved violently.

She bent over and slowly hugged her knees.

He pressed his flushed cheeks deeply against his legs.

"How could it be... so fast..."

Lin Qingxue could still feel her heart pounding wildly.

The scenes in these dreams did not seem to occur in any particular order.

No holding hands, no walking, no hugging, no kissing...

Instead, they lay down on the same bed, though they were later awakened.

But all of this was enough to catch Lin Qingxue off guard.

I was even vaguely afraid.

She hadn't even properly held hands with that person yet!

This dream happened way too fast...

Lin Qingxue silently pulled the sheet over her head and covered her face again.

The view in front of me was blocked, and it was all dark.

She remembered what the old people in the village had said.

Men are less likely to cherish what they have if they get it too quickly.

Lin Qingxue's eyes flickered with emotion, and her expression darkened.

But before she could think it through...

suddenly.

A commotion came from outside.

"Huh, my parents aren't here. They've probably gone to the chicken coop to feed the chickens."

"You guys play here for a bit. There are drinks in the fridge, help yourselves to quench your thirst. I'm going to change my clothes, it's getting hot."

"If you brought clothes and want to change restrooms, that's where it is. You can also lie down on the sofa if you're tired."

Lin Qingxue trembled.

It's Chan Kin-kei's voice.

"Alright, go ahead and do your thing, I'll take care of things!"

It's Zhang Xinyi.

Lin Qingxue lowered her eyes and tightened her grip on the bed sheet.

The sound of footsteps grew louder as they approached.

Until the door rang.

Squeak...

The door was opened.

Chen Jianji walked in.

"Why is it so dark? Who drew the curtains? Half the light is blocked."

He muttered to himself as he walked to the window and pulled it open.

Whoosh!

With a commotion, all the curtains were pulled open.

A large amount of sunlight streamed in, illuminating the entire room.

"Yes, that's more like it!"

Chen Jianji stretched and yawned. After sitting in the car for two whole hours, his body felt like it was about to fall apart.

Only when I finally got home did I start to relax.

He reached out and took off his shirt, throwing it onto the chair in front of his desk.

Just as I turned around to open the wardrobe.

But then they discovered a dress that didn't belong in this room hanging on the wardrobe handle.

"Um?"

Chen Jianji paused, his brows furrowing immediately.

Before he could even think about it.

A slight noise came from the bed next to me.

"Who?"

Chen Jianji looked over abruptly.

Just for a moment.

He met a pair of eyes that had just woken up, still a little sleepy and slightly puffy.

Chen Jianji's pupils contracted.

The man's face was tinged with an unusual red, like that of a ripe apple.

Her clothes were loose and askew to one side, revealing most of her fair shoulder.

The person was curled up like a kitten, with their knees covering most of their face, only their eyes were visible, staring at you intently.

The two stared at each other for a long time.

Until Lin Qingxue was the first to look away, the blush on her cheeks seemed to deepen.

Chen Jianji then snapped out of his shock.

But what followed was intense anger and irritability.

His face suddenly darkened.

No one invited you here.

Why did you come to my house, and why are you in my room?

Lin Qingxue paused slightly, glancing at him out of the corner of her eye.

He had just changed his clothes and hadn't put them back on yet.

Lin Qingxue didn't dare to look him in the eye again, but instead grabbed the sheet and pulled it up to cover half of her flushed face.

She spoke softly, her lips slightly parted, the sound coming through the sheets with a buzzing quality.

"I am because..."

But before she could finish speaking...

"go out."

Lin Qingxue froze, her previously feverish body suddenly feeling as if a bucket of ice water had been poured over it.

My initial excitement and anticipation began to sink.

She lowered her head and silently buried her face in her knees, remaining motionless.

Seeing her like this.

A hint of annoyance appeared on Chen Jianji's face. He reached out and picked up the clothes he had just taken off and put them back on.

He then suddenly stepped forward and grabbed Lin Qingxue's wrist.

Chen Jianji's eyes were filled with undisguised disdain, and his voice was low and filled with anger at having his territory invaded.

"I don't know how you got in."

"I don't want to hear it either. Now, get out of here right now!"

The sound was very loud.

But the force applied to his hands was even greater.

Lin Qingxue felt a sharp pain in her wrist from being gripped so tightly.

His body was lifted up by a great force.

She almost stumbled when she got out of bed because she lost her balance.

Lin Qingxue reached out and braced herself against the table next to her. She spoke, her voice calm, but it sounded like she was in pain, with a muffled groan.

"Let go, I'll walk by myself."

Chen Jianji gave her a deep look before letting go of her hand.

Lin Qingxue rubbed her wrist, lowered her head, and silently walked towards the door of the room.

But until the very moment it was time to step out the door.

Chen Jianji suddenly spoke up.

"etc."

Lin Qingxue paused, but did not turn around.

Then the person behind him continued speaking.

"Who gave you permission to wear my clothes?"

"Take it off."
