It puzzled Xuxu to see that the living room was still lit as she walked to the landing of the staircase . She was pleasantly surprised to see Jiao Chen .
Initially, she thought it was an illusion . She rubbed her eyes, but Jiao Chen was still there .
Then her gaze moved to Su Yue, who sat beside him .
It was late at night, and this young couple was watching a horror thriller . Everything seemed perfect .
Xuxu gazed at Su Yue and Jiao Chen with a dreamy smile .
Ah Sheng had never watched a horror movie with her before…
Just like how Su Yue and Jiao Chen were now . Su Yue snuggled closer to Jiao Chen whenever a scary scene flashed .
Xuxu envisioned a scene like that in her mind, and she was yearning for it to happen in real life .
Whenever she saw Su Yue and Jiao Chen together, she would see those lost times and regrets . She and Yan Rusheng should have spent those wonderful years in university together .
After a long time, Xuxu snapped out of her daze . She glanced at the cup in her hand and smiled to herself, before treading back to her room .
She didn’t know if Jiaojiao was the destined one for Su Yue . But she just knew that he wouldn’t make Su Yue cry .
It was an instinct!
Su Yue woke up the next morning in her bed . She stretched herself before sitting upright .
She blinked several times as she thought of something .
Yesterday… did Jiaojiao come last night?
She remembered that they watched TV together . But why couldn’t she recall anything after that?
Was it a dream?
Su Yue flung her blanket away and she peered around her bed, bedside drawers, trying to look for her phone .
She strode across the room and opened the door . She bumped into Mu Li who had just left Xuxu’s room .
Su Yue called her, “Second Aunt . ”
Mu Li turned towards Su Yue . “What’s wrong?”
“Last night…” Su Yue wasn’t sure if she was dreaming yesterday . She pondered for a moment before mumbling softly, “Did anyone come to our house last night?”
‘It can’t be a dream . Why would a dream be so vivid?’
But she couldn’t understand why she would sleep alone in her room .
Mu Li shook her head . “No one . ”
“No one?” Su Yue frowned, looking confused . Was she really dreaming? She looked rather crestfallen .
Mu Li pressed on quickly . “Last night, a super handsome guy came . ”
Her eyes were twinkling playfully, and she could hardly conceal her grin .
‘Super handsome guy?’ Su Yue was momentarily stumped before she realized that Mu Li was teasing her . “Second Aunt! You’re so bad!”
She pressed on, “Where is he?”
Mu Li certainly knew who the person Su Yue was referring to . “He went back last night . ”
“Huh?” Su Yue was wondering why he went back so late at night .
Mu Li answered, “You slept like a pig and didn’t even bother about him . Obviously, he left since you didn’t invite him . ”
Su Yue responded guiltily with a curt ‘oh’ . She bowed her head in silence .
She went downstairs and spotted her phone on the coffee table . There was a text from Jiao Chen .
‘After some serious thought, I should have carried you and sell you away . Since you wouldn’t even know what’s happening . I’m already in class . ’
He sent the text this morning .
Su Yue was speechless .
She really slept like a pig indeed . How could she not wake up when Jiaojiao carried her up?
He left so late last night, and he woke up at 7 a . m . Did he even sleep?
Su Yue replied quickly, ‘Go back to the dormitory and sleep after class . ’
