An Ran abruptly woke up.
The sky outside was already bright, and the room was empty except for herself.
That dream just now...
The seaside... a video cara... videotapes...
All the images blended together, swiftly flashing through her mind.
Her head felt like it was exploding with pain.
An Ran painfully held her little head, cold sweat seeping from her forehead.
In the dream, not far from that seaside town, the camphor trees were rustling.
That scene felt so familiar.
But—
What cara? What videotape?
Could this just be a dream? Or is it... so kind of hint?
An Ran desperately tried to rember.
The mory seed just within reach, yet still eluded her.
Just a little bit more...
An Ran clutched the bed underneath her, gasping for air.
No way.
She had completely mixed dream and reality; all sorts of confusing images kept flooding into her mind.
She couldn’t sort anything out at all.
Turning to look at the ti, six-thirty in the morning.
Today is the weekend; no school and yet she still woke up so early.
An Ran wanted to lie down and continue sleeping, perhaps she could connect the dream just now?
But she couldn’t fall asleep no matter what.
She stared blankly at the ceiling, not knowing how long had passed before she finally got up and walked out.
Passing by Chi Cheng’s room, his door was tightly closed.
Going downstairs, the first floor of the villa seed even more empty and lifeless.
Brother... is gone.
Her heart fell into emptiness once again.
Her nose felt a bit sore; An Ran had no mood for breakfast, and directly sat on the sofa, continuing to try to recall.
Just then, the phone rang.
It was a call from the WeChat group.
Called by Xiyan, and when An Ran joined, Ruge had already answered.
"What are you guys doing today? Let’s go out and shop together."
Ruge echoed, "Sure, sure."
"I don’t think I’ll go..." An Ran really wasn’t in the mood, her voice was hoarse as she spoke.
Xiyan and Ruge already knew about her and Chi Cheng.
Actually, Xiyan felt particularly sorry for An Ran.
But knowing Chi Cheng’s mother’s will, after Ou Jue’s analysis, she also felt she had no right to morally bind Chi Cheng.
She had no choice but to do her best to cheer An Ran up.
Thinking of this, Xiyan suddenly turned on her phone cara, flashed a small black book in her hand, "Look, it’s a driver’s license, I just got it! I’ll drive to pick you up, okay, An Ran darling?"
"Wow, that’s great." Ruge patted her leg excitedly, "It’s almost spring, let’s go on a road trip together."
Seeing her two friends so invitingly enthusiastic, An Ran really didn’t want to dampen everyone’s spirits, so she nodded and said, "I’ll go pack up."
Half an hour later, An Ran received a WeChat ssage from Xiyan saying she was almost there, and went out early to wait at the door.
Before long, a red mini cooper stopped in front of her.
The car window rolled down, Xiyan wore a big pair of sunglasses, resting one hand on the window fra, "hello baby~ going for a drive?"
An Ran’s lips finally curved up a little, "Why are you acting like a female thug?"
"Yeah, that’s why I’m here to abduct you, the good girl. Co get in my villainous car."
"Alright then." An Ran played along with the drama queen Xiyan, walked around to the passenger side, opened the door, and sat inside.
