Chapter 631: Another Dream
Lin Yilan came back dejected. She had been confident that she could persuade Master Xu Ziwen, but she failed. So she was very disappointed.
She didn't know what to do next, and she felt a headache just thinking about it.
At the same time, Chen Jie also discovered that Lin Yilan had returned.
He came up with a plan and decided to frame Huo Juncheng. Who made Huo Juncheng treat him so rudely? Since that was the case, Huo Juncheng couldn't blame him for being rude.
Chen Jie hardened his heart and slapped himself: "Ouch, that hurts."
However, he knew very well that he had to pay a price to achieve his goal.
But he knew very well that Lin Yilan was very much sold on this. He touched the red slap mark on his face, and it really hurt. But the more painful it was, the better, because that would make it seem more real.
He ran towards Lin Yilan, hugged her tightly, and then started crying. It was so real.
"What's wrong? What's wrong?" Lin Yilan asked.
She was already feeling quite lost, and then Chen Jie suddenly showed up and started crying, which inevitably made her wonder if something had happened.
"Mom, it hurts..." Chen Jie said in a crying voice and looked up at Lin Yilan.
At this time, Lin Yilan also noticed the slap mark on his face.
It looks very painful, and Chen Jie is just a child. Even an adult may not be able to bear this kind of pain. I don’t know who is so cruel to do such a cruel thing to him.
"What's wrong with you? Stop crying and tell your mother." Lin Yilan squatted down and helped Chen Jie wipe away his tears.
Chen Jie's acting was flawless. The slap mark was real, and the tears were real. He knew that Lin Yilan might not believe it if he didn't do so, so he had to be cruel.
He held back his tears, but his face looked aggrieved.
“I got beaten…”
"Who hit you? Who hit you?" Lin Yilan asked.
At this time, Chen Jie stopped talking. He just shook his head with a look of fear on his face.
What bad intentions could a child have? All his emotions were shown on his face, so Lin Yilan could see it at a glance.
Apart from Chen Jie, there is only Huo Juncheng in the family. It has always been Huo Juncheng who has a grievance against Chen Jie, while no one else has a grievance against Chen Jie, so Huo Juncheng is the most suspicious.
Lin Yilan picked up Chen Jie and went to find Huo Juncheng.
When Huo Juncheng saw Lin Yilan carrying Chen Jie over, he was quite confused and didn't know what tricks Chen Jie was playing.
"Is it him? Tell mom." Lin Yilan asked Chen Jie.
Chen Jie looked at Huo Juncheng, then turned his face away, pretending that he didn't dare to look at Huo Juncheng and was very afraid of Huo Juncheng. Because of this, Lin Yilan became more convinced that it was Huo Juncheng who did it.
She was already in a bad mood today, and Huo Juncheng did something like this to anger her. She was really annoyed.
"How can you be so cruel? He's just a child." Lin Yilan spoke directly.
"What? No..." Huo Juncheng didn't know what was going on.
At the same time, Lin Yilan put Chen Jie down, and Chen Jie kept hiding behind her, his little hands still grabbing the corner of her clothes.
"How could you have the heart to do that? Look at the slap mark. Even if you don't like him, you can't do this." Lin Yilan was very angry.
"No...what's going on? I didn't do this."
Huo Juncheng was also confused. He had done nothing wrong but was inexplicably accused of such a crime.
At this time, Lin Yilan pulled Chen Jie out. When facing Chen Jie, she was very gentle because she didn't want to show any expression.
"Don't be afraid. Tell your mother bravely, was it him who hit you?" Lin Yilan asked.
Chen Jie nodded. Seeing Chen Jie's anxious look, he was very happy, but he had to hide well and not be discovered.
In Lin Yilan's opinion, children are very innocent and don't know how to lie. So, Huo Juncheng is the one who lied and refused to admit his wrongdoing.
"No, don't talk nonsense."
"How did I hit you? Do you have any evidence?" Huo Juncheng was also anxious.
He knew that Lin Yilan would definitely protect Chen Jie, so he had to prove himself. The innocent will be cleared. Anyway, he had never beaten Chen Jie, and no one could accuse him without evidence.
"Where did he hit you?" Lin Yilan continued to ask.
"In a place where no one can see." Chen Jie said, tears in his eyes.
Lin Yilan felt really distressed and didn’t know how big of a blow this was to Chen Jie.
They have surveillance here, and the "invisible places" that Chen Jie mentioned are nothing more than blind spots in the surveillance.
This made sense, as they would have no evidence. Huo Juncheng was an adult and could have thought of this. She really didn't know what Huo Juncheng was thinking, targeting a child like this.
"Why do you always do this?"
"He didn't do anything wrong. He's just a child. Why can't you tolerate him?" Lin Yilan scolded Huo Juncheng angrily.
At this moment, Huo Juncheng was speechless.
He knew very well that he could not win the argument with Lin Yilan. If he continued, it would really be his fault in the end.
Lin Yilan then gave Huo Juncheng a good lecture, but in fact Huo Juncheng just ignored it and didn't listen carefully at all.
What he was thinking in his heart was what tricks Chen Jie was playing, framing him and looking so innocent.
Chen Jie's counter-espionage plan was successful, and he was very proud of himself.
At night, he asked to sleep with Lin Yilan on the pretext of being afraid. Lin Yilan naturally would not refuse such a request because it was not a big deal.
But Huo Juncheng was unhappy.
"No, what does that mean?" he asked.
He was furious and didn't listen to Lin Yilan. He just thought he was being unreasonable and that Huo Juncheng was childish. He was arguing with this.
So, in the end, she ignored Huo Juncheng and went to sleep with Chen Jie.
Leaving Huo Juncheng alone to sulk, he hoped that Huo Juncheng could reflect on himself.
Strangely enough, she had a dream the night she slept with Chen Jie. Lin Yilan vaguely remembered that she hadn't had a dream for a long time.
There was nothing wrong with the dream, but in the dream, Chen Xiang was sleeping with her, and they even exchanged rings and got married.
After putting on the ring, Chen Xiang's face gradually turned into Chen Jie's appearance.
All of this seemed very strange, but Lin Yilan, who was in a dream, did not realize this. Her consciousness could only follow the dream.
Lin Yilan woke up early the next morning and began to feel strange when she recalled the dream.
Recently, this man named "Chen Xiang" has appeared in my dreams more and more frequently. Is my illness related to this man?
So he... is really that powerful?
Can you control what other people think?
