In the office, Han Jifeng sat on the sofa previously occupied by Lai Shengxia, his gaze lingering on the bareheaded photo on the edge of the coffee table.
In the photo, the girl was wearing a white school uniform with a blue collar, her hair tied in a ponytail with stray strands tucked behind her ears. Her skin was pale, and as she faced the camera, she seemed unaccustomed—not smiling as other girls would during a photo shoot. Instead, she had her lips slightly pursed, but she was sitting up straight.
Such a photo was not unfamiliar to Han Jifeng.
In his dreams, it was this very same bareheaded photo that was used on Tang Li's tombstone.
It was like a warning, alerting him of the striking overlaps between his dreams and reality.
Han Jifeng had already seen the news about Tang Li on the internet beforehand, just as Lai Shengxia had described.
