Chapter 1140: She dreamed that her child called that woman ‘mom’.
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
“Ziming, are you still looking for her?”
The moment he popped this question, the face of man, who was gracefully sipping his coffee, blanched.
Am I still looking for her...
In the first year he lost her, he looked for her until he almost went crazy.
He searched high and low, but he was still unable to find the woman who had hurt him so deeply.
In the first year, he was thinking that once he found her, he would definitely not let her leave his side again and make her obediently stay.
In the second year, he still continued looking. That time, he was filled with hate.
He hated her for leaving without a word, for vanishing from his world, and for purposely avoiding him.
In the third year, when he still could not find her, his hatred for her turned into being able to forgive everything—even her purposeful avoidance—if she obediently came back to him.
However, no matter what he thought, that woman never appeared again.
In the fourth year, his heart felt as if it were dead.
He realized that, in a world without her, his life was like a puddle of still water; there was nothing that could create ripples in his heart anymore.
Now... It was already the fifth year.
If Pei Ge appeared in front of him again at this point, what would he do?
To be honest, he himself did not know; that was because he knew that amid his endless waiting and searching, he was no longer the same person.
“Ziming?”
Mu Heng involuntarily shivered in fear when he remained silent with a dark expression.
Why does he look so scary like that...
The other’s voice jolted the man out of his reverie.
He took a light sip of his coffee, and the sickeningly sweet drink re-energized him.
This taste always reminded him of the woman who had disappeared from his world.
“Have you already given up on searching for Pei Ge?”
His childhood friend carefully posed the question, seeing that his expression had returned to normal.
“The people you sent out in the past seemed to have all returned.”
Pak!
With graceful movements, he placed his coffee cup on the table and looked up at him.
“You are investigating me.”
The cold stare made the other flinch as he waved his hands instantly.
“How could I? How would I dare investigate you? It’s only because auntie mentioned it to me a few days ago that I knew!”
Honestly speaking, Mu Heng was shocked when he learned from his best friend’s mother that the man had recalled all his personnel and stopped looking for the woman.
Only god knew how much his childhood friend loved Pei Ge.
“Have you... really given up?” He blinked curiously.
Don’t tell me that he’s truly given up on looking for her and decided to get married with that person out of pressure?
“I have something on, so I’ll leave first.”
However, he did not receive a reply.
The man stood up from the sofa.
After smoothing his clothes, he left the private room without a backward glance.
“Hey, hey, hey! Are you just leaving like this?! How long have you been here only?! What about accompanying me?!”
His shout did not stop the man’s footsteps.
He continued striding away with steady and calm footsteps.
However, inside, he was not as calm as he displayed outwardly.
Pei Ge.
He had not heard this name in a long while.
He had already stopped looking for her a year ago.
From then on, that name had vanished from his world.
It no longer appeared in his world. People around him treated that name as a taboo around him and never dared to mention it in front of him.
“Have I given up...”
A smile suddenly appeared on the man’s cold face. His thin lips curled up slightly.
Although it resembled a light smile, that smile was filled with inexplicable coldness and contempt.
Pei Ge, do you also think that I have given up on you...
...
“Ahhh!”
While sleeping halfway, Pei Ge suddenly screamed in fright and opened her eyes.
“Hah... hah... hah...”
Having woken up from a nightmare, she kept panting.
Pak!
After turning on the lights, she raised her left wrist to look at the time displayed on her Chanel watch. It was only 6 AM.
She then lay back down on her bed.
However, after being awoken by a nightmare, she was unable to fall asleep again.
With her eyes wide open, she stared at the snow-white ceiling above. Her eyes were filled with fear and relief.
Luckily. Luckily, it’s just a dream.
She had just dreamed that her pair of son and daughter was discovered by the Ji family.
After which, her two babies were taken away from her by them.
She then dreamed that her two babies were calling Qiao Jingyun ‘mom’...
However, that vile woman did not treat her children kindly.
She... tortured them in a place no one could see...
“Fortunately, it’s just a dream...”
She let out a big sigh of relief. Still, the dream had been too realistic.
Hence, even though she was already awake, she still felt a lingering fear.
Just like this, she lay in bed for another hour before finally getting up to wash up and have breakfast.
However, as today was the weekend, she started her video call with the two precious babies while having breakfast.
“Mommy, your breakfast looks delicious!”
Ran Ran’s words made her look at the dough fritters in her hands with amusement.
“I really want to accompany you there! Godmother said that Beijing Roast Duck is very delicious!”
Perhaps because today was the day that they were going to the amusement park, the usually demure girl was exceptionally lively.
“If you want to eat it, mommy will bring some for you once I go back.” She gently and lovingly told the little girl on the screen.
Having never considered bringing her children back to the country, she became even more unwilling to do so after the dream she had had this morning.
People said that dreams were the opposite of reality, but what if... they came true?
Overseas, Egger and Gu Zhengrong’s power could protect the three of them.
However, within these borders, those two’s powers alone were unable to shield the three of them from the Ji family’s influence...
