if 7 I had a very long dream
I followed Lu Shiyu into his house, and it was dark inside.
"Why is it so dark..." Before I could finish my question, Lu Shiyu turned around and covered my mouth.
"Shh, keep your voice down."
I blinked and looked at him in confusion.
He loosened his hand and explained, "The servants are all asleep. Don't disturb them. You don't want them to tell my mother about it, do you?"
I nodded desperately, but Lu Shiyu frowned.
He suddenly came closer to me, lowered his head and sniffed my neck.
"Have you been drinking?"
"Well, a little bit." I said in a low voice.
"The good kids have learned bad things." He pinched my face.
"What's wrong with drinking a little wine? I'm an adult." I rubbed it dissatisfiedly and asked again: "Can I have a glass of water?"
Lu Shiyu didn't say anything and took me into the kitchen in the dark.
He poured me a glass of water, and as soon as I finished drinking it, he trapped me on the operating table.
"What do you want to do?" I stared at him warily.
"Why are you asking now? Isn't it too late?" His voice was very low, and it seemed even deeper.
"What do you mean?" I had a bad feeling.
"Fu Mingshuang, you have such a big heart..." He approached me, his light-colored eyes deep.
"It's a dark and windy night. A drunk woman is taken by a man to an empty villa. There are no lights on. What do you think will happen next? If you were the author, how would you write this plot?"
Hearing him say that, I suddenly felt creepy and my back went cold: "Don't be ridiculous, I'm a little scared."
(﹏)
"If you're afraid, then be obedient." He reached out, walked around to my side, and pulled out a sharp fruit knife from under the operating table.
"Swish..." The blade scraped across the operating table, making a harsh sound.
"What do you want to do?" My voice began to tremble.
"Be good, take the ring back and wear it around your neck."
I did it with tears in my eyes and a little surprise.
His ring is back on my chest.
"Crack..." Lu Shiyu used a fruit knife to cut the apple on the workbench.
The apple was split in half.
He took a half step back, dropped the fruit knife, picked up half of the apple and started to eat it: "I said, I don't want the ring anymore, you have to keep it for me."
"Lu Shiyu, why do you have to hold on to me? Is it just because I am Fu Qingzhou's niece?" I looked at him aggrievedly.
( ﹏ )
Unexpectedly, this question made Lu Shiyu silent. He looked at me, his shallow eyes seemed to be filled with strong emotions.
Maybe it's because of the alcohol, I feel a little hot.
I avoided his gaze and tried to leave the workbench, but my hand accidentally knocked the water cup off the workbench.
I screamed in surprise, but luckily Lu Shiyu was quick enough to catch the cup of water.
However, it still alarmed those who woke up at night.
"Who is it?" An aunt's voice came from outside the kitchen.
I was stunned and panicked.
Lu Shiyu calmly embraced me, pressed my head against his chest, and hid me in his arms...
And he himself had his back to the kitchen door.
"Master, is that you?"
"Well, wake up and have a glass of water." The sound of Lu Shiyu's chest vibrating reached my eardrum, making it itchy.
"Let me help you..."
I felt the aunt approaching, and I shrank back into Lu Shiyu's arms.
Fortunately, there was no light in the kitchen, and the darkness provided us with a good cover.
"No need, Mrs. Rong, I can do it myself, please go back to your room first."
"Well, that's fine."
I listened to my aunt's footsteps getting farther and farther away, and wanted to leave Lu Shiyu's arms.
But his palm landed on my waist, forcing me to stay close.
"Lu Shiyu..." I called him softly, not daring to speak too loudly.
"Wait a little longer, maybe they haven't gone far yet."
I didn't dare move again, and just stayed close to him quietly. My heartbeats became more and more chaotic, and I couldn't tell whose heartbeat was with whose.
After a while, I pushed him away: "Okay, this time even the lame one has gone far away."
"Wait." He still said these two words.
"Still waiting?" I looked up puzzled and met his eyes.
"Didn't you just ask why I had to hold on to you?"
I was stunned for a moment, then nodded.
His eyes were fixed on me, and he spoke slowly:
"Before I met you, I had a very long dream. In the dream, you were very bad. You smoked, drank, and wore heavy makeup. You were also very bad to me."
"...But you were so good to me. You saved my life and taught me how to breathe. In my dreams, we kept kissing and making love. In the end, you married me. We had twins, a boy and a girl. We watched them grow up together and then grew old together."
"So, when I met you on the first day of my senior year, I was thinking..."
"Was that just a dream I made up, or maybe in a parallel universe, you and I really were in love?"
I stared at Lu Shiyu in a daze. What he said felt so strange to me that I couldn't think at all.
So, when he said: "Fu Mingshuang, stand on tiptoe."
I did as I was told.
Then he lowered his white hair and pressed his lips to mine.
The hot breath hit my face, but it was warm and cool on my lips.
A white light seemed to be my soul returning to its place.
I pushed him away and fled his house.
I moved away and never went back to that villa, and I didn't see him again the whole summer.
I blocked him on WeChat and hung the ring on his door before leaving.
