In the middle of the night, Mu Run had a nightmare.
In her dream, she returned to the world she had just transmigrated to, sitting in a bridal sedan chair surrounded by bandits, including Liu Lao Er and Qiao Dong Zi.
They looked fierce and menacing, raising their knives to slash at the defenseless wedding procession.
Blood was everywhere, limbs and mutilated bodies were scattered everywhere, and the faces of the dead were all filled with utter terror. Suddenly, those expressions came alive, staring at her with a chilling intensity, as if she were the one who had killed them. They moved the river of bloodied corpses and lunged at her…
"Ah—" Mu Run screamed and sat up, fully awake, her body covered in a cold sweat.
However, she was all alone in the pitch-black room. Coupled with the nightmare she had just had, it felt even more eerie and terrifying.
She clutched the blanket tightly, the sound of her heartbeat crystal clear in the still night! She buried her face in the blanket, unwilling to face this lonely, night of nightmares.
A meow, like a ray of light tearing through the darkness, led Mu Run to an exit.
"Tea Baby, Tea Baby!" Mu Run called out urgently, looking up.
Cha Bao jumped into her arms and meowed again, "Meow~"
Mu Run hugged it and let out a sigh of relief. "Mom had a nightmare just now, it scared Mom to death."
"Mommy?" Cha Bao looked up at Mu Run. Was it her baby?
"Meow~" It is!
Mu Run hugged Cha Bao and lay down again to continue sleeping.
Perhaps it was because Cha Bao was with her, but Mu Run felt particularly comfortable in body and mind, and she had another dream... In the dream, she and Cha Bao were picking flowers to make flower crowns in a valley full of flowers. Little Cha Bao had grown up a lot and was jumping and chasing butterflies, getting covered in flower petals.
In her sleep, a happy smile appeared on Mu Run's lips.
Cha Bao blinked and looked at Mu Run, "Do you like my mountain?"
Mountain beasts are born knowing which mountain they are the guardian beasts of, and Cha Bao naturally knew as well. However, his mountain was seized by a powerful and ferocious beast, which he could not defeat and was severely injured and reduced to a juvenile state. He could only flee and eventually ended up at Chongyang Mountain.
Fortunately, the guardian beast of Chongyang Mountain was asleep; otherwise, if it had discovered it, it would surely have been eaten.
It was Mu Run who saved its life... It wanted to repay her great kindness before returning to its own mountain to fight the ferocious beast.
...
The Prime Minister's residence is in chaos!
In the middle of the night, there were people everywhere in a panic.
Fu Yunchen calmly read a book in the study.
Qiao Dongzi was sleeping when the chaotic noise woke him up. He went outside to find out what had happened.
Not long after, Qiao Dongzi ran back and rushed into the study.
"Boss, something really has happened!"
"Prince Zhou broke into the young lady's room and defiled her. Now the young lady is crying and acting like she's going to die."
"Leave the Prime Minister's residence first thing tomorrow morning."
"Yes, boss."
"Stop calling us 'boss' all the time. Are you afraid people won't know what we do?"
"Well……"
"By the way, find an opportunity to give that girl a few taels of silver to pay off Madam's debts."
"Pay off the debt for the madam? Which maid?" Qiao Dongzi was completely bewildered.
"The one who served the wine last night, just give it to him when he tells you to."
"Oh, okay."
Fu Yunchen closed the book in his hand, and a faint smile suddenly appeared on his thin lips.
Upon seeing this, Qiao Dongzi quickly lowered his head, thinking to himself: Who is the boss plotting against this time?
