Chapter 959: Time and you are both beautiful (1)

..

Leng Nuan was tired, but she closed her eyes and did not sleep for long before she started having nightmares.

She dreamed of the year when she was 15. One summer, she was completing her lessons and it was already very late. She waited for a long time, but her parents did not come to pick her up. She thought that perhaps they were too busy with work, and she saw that the sky was getting darker and darker, so she decided to go home by herself.

That day, she wore a very beautiful dress. It had a red base, white polka dots, and a doll collar. Even the teacher who was tutoring her praised her dress.

From her teacher’s home to her home, it was not far. It was only twenty to thirty minutes’walk, but in those twenty to thirty minutes, her life was completely ruined.

She would always remember that when she passed through a small alley, she was stopped by a boy.

She knew that boy. Although she had only met him a few times, that boy was her tutor’s nephew. Those few times they had met were at the tutor’s house, and they had not even spoken, he did not usually look that terrifying.

But that boy that night was so scary that it made her feel like a demon from hell. She was extremely scared. She cried and begged him, saying that she could give her pocket money, she thought that he might be the kind of boy who liked to threaten students to get money, but she didn’t expect that all her escape routes were useless, that boy had no intention of letting her go… Her beautiful dress was torn, and he left a lot of bruises on her body..

She was extremely afraid. She had never been as afraid as she was at that moment since she was young.

Even now, she was asleep, but her body was still shaking, and the shaking was getting stronger. In the end, she began to cry and woke up from her dream.

She looked at the time. It was only eleven o’clock.

But she was not sleepy anymore.

She turned on all the lights in the room, hugged the quilt, and curled up on the bed. Her body trembled for a while before she calmed down slightly.

She knew that the scenes in the dream were not dreams. They had really happened.

It had been many years since she had dreamed of those terrifying scenes. Perhaps it was because she had accidentally caught sight of that familiar figure at the entrance of the restaurant today that she had such a nightmare again.

After the incident, she did not go to school again. That boy was already an adult and had been sentenced. Because the incident had caused a stir in the place where they lived, her parents had taken her away. Her mother had also left after that, she quit her job and did not work anymore. She stayed with her all day, but the environment could be changed, the school could be changed, and the people she knew in the past could not meet. However, the things that happened could never be changed.

As she got older, she became more and more afraid. She was afraid of all men, including her father. There was even a time when she was afraid of even girls.

The vibration of the phone in her palm brought back Leng Nuan’s memories.

She took a look and saw that it was a call from Lu Benlai.

She swallowed a few mouthfuls of saliva before answering the call. Perhaps it was because she had completely recalled that nightmare, but for some reason, she felt a little guilty. “You… you… are you done?”

“Yes…”

Lu Benlai’s voice was very normal. Only then did Leng Nuan secretly let out a sigh of relief.

“Aren’t you sleepy? Why aren’t you asleep yet?”

Hearing Lu Benlai speak again, Leng Nuan said, “I was half asleep when I woke up…”
