Chapter 23 Nightmare (2/2)



"ah--"

Swish.

Lin Jiaoyun suddenly sat up in bed, still shaken, and covered her head. It took her a while to realize that those scenes were just a dream.

right.

I'm dreaming.

She said... Zhou Cheng loves her so much, how could he possibly marry another woman?

Since leaving Yanchunlou, Lin Jiaoyun has often been absent-minded, and her former arrogance and confidence, which disregarded her background, has been halved.

She couldn't help but doubt the veracity of Zhou Cheng's words.

She began to feel uneasy and afraid. Zhou Cheng's words were not just said in anger, but were true. He really didn't love her anymore and didn't need her anymore. His actions and behaviors were not meant to force her to submit.

But... three years of adoration and fawning made Lin Jiaoyun waver, wondering how this could be possible.

Zhou Cheng loved her so passionately, how could he suddenly stop loving her?

"No, it won't..."

"He persisted for so long, how could he turn around and choose Cheng Xianyi just because I refused to propose marriage?"

"Lin Jiaoyun, you have to believe what Lanlan said! He must have just said this to scare you. It'll be fine in a few days, everything will be alright in a few days, he'll definitely come begging for your forgiveness. Just wait a little longer, um, just wait a little longer..."

"If he comes back to me in a few days, I won't make things difficult for him. I'll just make him kneel for an hour. Yeah, that's it."

After various attempts to reassure herself, Lin Jiaoyun patted her chest.

She took a deep breath, closed her eyes, and imagined Zhou Cheng coming back to find her, before falling asleep peacefully.

Meanwhile, at the General's Mansion.

After Zhou Cheng's persistent pats and hugs, his points have increased from over 100,000 to a terrifying number: 572,087 points.

Excluding the previous points, he gained over 400,000 points in just three days, averaging nearly 140,000 per day! Looking at these satisfactory numbers, Zhou Cheng realized a very serious truth.

That means touching is worse than touching; choice is indeed more important than effort!

A correct path can save you from taking a hundred times the detours. He was fortunate to be brave enough to go for it, and then he realized that brave people are indeed rewarded first.

"Open the points mall."

"Exchange for two basic pistols and 1,087 bullets."

"bite!"

"Redeem successful, 2087 points deducted."

"Exchange for 20 more basic hand grenades."

"Ding! Redemption successful. 20,000 points deducted. Total remaining points: 550,000."

Zhou Cheng was somewhat obsessive-compulsive. After spending all his points, he packed up the supplies he had redeemed from the mall and then knocked on the study door.

General Zhou, who was preparing to set off, had already put on his armor and strapped on his spear.

He bid farewell to Madam Zhou with a dozen loyal subordinates. When he saw Zhou Cheng carrying a package into the door, his eyes immediately welled up with tears, filled with reluctance and affection.

This time.

If all goes well, we'll see each other again in a month.

If things don't go well, it might be goodbye to the underworld.

General Zhou suppressed the turmoil in his heart, held back his tears, smiled, reached out and patted Zhou Cheng's shoulder, and said, "Cheng'er... your father is leaving. Remember to take good care of yourself and be careful in everything you do."

“Your mother and I have discussed it. If anything unexpected happens, you...you don’t care about anyone else. Preserving your own life is the most important thing. Escape the capital at all costs. As long as you are alive, the bloodline of our Zhou family will not be extinct.”
