Who is calling her?
For a moment she was bewildered, her mind foggy, unable to distinguish clearly.
That urgent yet deep call made her feel an immense warmth in her heart, a warmth that spread instantly throughout her whole body.
Yege opened her eyes and saw Chu Xici's face, full of worry, his eyes fixated on her...
The moment she saw Chu Xici, Yege abruptly sat up, threw herself into his arms, tightly hugging his neck, crying as she said:
"...Don't leave me, don't abandon me... I'm scared!"
Yege's voice was filled with endless grievances and bitterness; her arms wrapped so tightly, burying her head in his chest, her tears falling on his neck, scalding his skin.
Chu Xici was taken aback.
What kind of nightmare had she had to be this frightened?
Earlier, Yege said she wanted to sleep and then she pushed him out of the room.
His room was right next door, but as he lay down, he couldn't fall asleep no matter what.
