Chapter 774: A Man Thousands of Years Ago
"It seems like I dreamed that I traveled through time again, and back to ancient Egypt..." Nie Yao put down the sandwich in his hand and said hesitantly.
"Really? You dreamed of Queen Hasu again, or the legendary priest you mentioned. What was his name?" Li Jinxing asked with a smile.
"Senmut!" Nie Yao replied immediately.
"Yes, Senmut, did you dream about him?" Li Jinxing asked in a faint voice.
"No..." Nie Yao shook her head honestly. Seeing Li Jinxing's eyes on her face, she raised her eyebrows and asked in amusement, "Li Jinxing, you are not jealous of a man who lived thousands of years ago, are you?"
"Yaoyao, you also said that he was just a man from thousands of years ago. No matter how powerful he was, he has become a mummy!"
Li Jinxing raised the corners of his lips slightly, and said with a half-smile: "The most important man in your life is sitting in front of you right now. You should be dreaming about me..."
"I can't control my dreams either. Do you think you can control my dreams?" Nie Yao burst into laughter, blinked, and whispered, "You're so overbearing!"
"I remember you dreamed of me before..." Li Jinxing reminded with a low laugh.
Nie Yao of course understood what he was talking about. A blush quickly rose on her face, and she glared at him in feigned anger: "That doesn't count. That was clearly your night raid on the boudoir!"
"Really? I remember a little girl saying she thought she had an orgasm..."
Before he could utter the word "dream" after that, Nie Yao picked up a piece of bread and stuffed it into her mouth.
"Shut up and eat your breakfast!" Nie Yao was furious and gave him a warning glare before continuing to enjoy her breakfast. While drinking juice, she said, "I dreamed of you before, but that was just because I drew a few more sketches of you. You also said that you think about things during the day and think about them at night. Now..."
"How is it now?" Li Jinxing took a bite of bread and continued with a low laugh.
"You are right in front of me now and by my pillow at night. Do I need to think about you day and night?" Nie Yao asked back with a smile.
This answer was quite satisfactory to Li Jinxing. He curled his lips slightly, nodded and said with a smile: "Then you have to get used to it. It will be like this every day from now on!"
Nie Yao shrugged noncommittally and whispered, "So what if I can't get used to it? Can I still regret it?"
When she said this, she stretched out her finger and showed the engagement diamond ring that Li Jinxing had put on her. She sighed and said, "I'm bound by you. I can't escape even if I want to..."
"Yaoyao, I feel the same way!" Li Jinxing also reached out, showing his engagement ring. He held Nie Yao's hand and said with a low laugh, "My person has also been tied up by you. No one can take her away!"
Nie Yao raised an eyebrow but said nothing. Instead, she retracted her hand and continued eating her breakfast. She said jokingly, "But I want to correct what you said just now!"
"What?" Li Jinxing asked with a smile.
"You mentioned that priest named Senmut. He should have a mummy, but until now, no one has excavated his mummy..."
Nie Yao shrugged and added doubtfully, "In fact, there's no specific record of when he died. It seems that after Thutmose III ascended the throne, Hatshepsut, the female pharaoh, disappeared along with the priest Senmut..."
