Chapter 187

Seeing that she really didn't want to do it, Song Yun had no choice but to pester her a few times, skirting the edge of intimacy. After it was over, he buried his head in her neck, breathing heavily.

"Youyou, we will be together forever."

After the ultimate pleasure came an endless emptiness. Song Yun needed a promise to fill the void in his heart. He asked tentatively in a low voice, and when Jiang You remained silent and did not respond, he couldn't help but hug her tightly.

It was as if only in this way could the two of them be together forever.

But he knew that the reason he could be with Jiang You now was because he didn't seek any official status or think about the future.

After spending the day with Song Yun, Jiang You asked the doctor about the sleep paralysis incident before leaving.

"Irregular sleep patterns, excessive fatigue, or prolonged periods of anxiety and stress can all lead to sleep paralysis, commonly known as 'being pressed down by a ghost.'"

“Thank you,” Jiang You said, very gratefully.

After thanking Director Wang, I left to return to school.

Walking down the corridor, Song Yun, who had been silent beside me, suddenly spoke up: "Is something bothering you?"

"......ah?"

Song Yun stared intently at her with his brown pupils, took a step forward, and bent his neck slightly: "You never told me about your frequent sleep paralysis, Youyou?"

"Oh, I didn't even think about it," she said, waving her hand. Seeing that Song Yun was still staring at her silently, she realized that Song Yun was still staring at her silently.

The other person still had an androgynous face, like a jade figure carved from glass, fragile and delicate, yet she seemed to smell a similar aura on Xia Bei and Xia Yan.

But no matter how you look at it, it's the same as before.

Scratching her face, she changed the subject, saying, "If there's nothing else, I'll head back now. I'll come back next week when you're discharged."

"I send you."

Song Yun insisted on seeing Jiang You to the car. Seeing her open the car door, he said softly, "Youyou, do you know what would happen if I were given three days of sight?"

The usually soft, sweet voice, as if wrapped in cotton candy, faded, leaving a cool and clear tone that struck her ears. Jiang You got into the car, used to the boy's sweet and coquettish tone, and the sudden change felt a little strange.

"Yeah, I know, so what?"

She looked at him; Song Yun's long eyelashes cast butterfly-wing-like shadows beneath his eyes, obscuring the emotions within.

He closed the car door: "People are always like this, never satisfied."

"Huh? What does this have to do with books?"

Song Yun didn't answer her question and signaled the driver to start the car. Jiang You would never know that the other person wasn't referring to the female protagonist in the book, but to himself.

Back in his dorm, Jiang You quickly put Song Yun out of his mind and started working on his homework.

A week passed quickly, and the frequency of sleep paralysis gradually decreased. On Saturday morning, she rushed to the hospital to pick up Song Yun from the hospital.

......

Do you know the old man who manages the express delivery supermarket?

"I know him, that sleazy old man, the director's father."

"He fell into the lake and died!"

"Huh?" A bystander looked shocked and quickly asked, "How did he die?"

"He got drunk and fell headfirst into the lake, and the police have already closed the case. Sigh, the director always keeps his dad from drinking because he has high blood pressure, high cholesterol, and high blood sugar, but how can anyone control their own father? Every time I pass by the old man, I can smell alcohol on his breath."

"Is that all?"

"Yes, there are security cameras by the lake. This morning, the police asked people who knew the old man, and they all said he liked to drink..."

Jiang You and Song Yun had only walked a few steps back to school when they heard some news.

Unlike Song Yun's indifference, Jiang You seemed to have been struck by something, freezing in place.

Song Yun, who was completely focused on Jiang You, noticed the unusual behavior. He lowered his eyes and looked her over for a moment before asking, "Youyou, do you know her?"
