Suddenly, the little boy’s face drooped as he looked at her sadly and asked, “Xiaoxiao, have you forgotten me?”
Have you forgotten me…
Mu Xiaoxiao suddenly woke up from the dream. Her eyes widened and she muttered. “No, I haven’t…”
Ah Ze, I haven’t forgotten you.
But at the thought of how sad Ah Ze looked, it ached her heart.
“Yin Shaojie…”
She instinctively wanted to find him to seek comfort, but when Mu Xiaoxiao turned around, the bed was empty and cold.
She suddenly remembered that she didn’t let Yin Shaojie sleep with her last night and told him to sleep somewhere else instead.
Outside the window, the sky was hazy as though it had just woken up. A trace of morning light s.h.i.+ned from the marble white color of dawn.
Typically at this hour, Mu Xiaoxiao would still be asleep as she rarely woke up so early.
But today, she wasn’t sleeping.
Sitting on the bed, holding her knees in a daze, her mind was a mess.
Ever since Ah Ze’s death, she had admittedly placed him out of mind. It wasn’t that she didn’t want to think of it but she got upset every time she thought about it. Afraid that she would get sad, the people around her avoided broaching the topic about Ah Ze.
Thus, Ah Ze gradually disappeared from her world.
This was the dream that she had when she had regained her memory from the previous incident. It was only then that she had forgotten that the little boy in the dream was Ah Ze.
Why would she dream of Ah Ze at that time?
Mu Xiaoxiao tried hard to sort out the confused thoughts.
Before her memory returned, she met Jun Zeye for the first time in the back alley of a bar.
She couldn’t help but suppose that she had dreamt of Ah Ze because he was somehow related to Ah Ze.
Could that be the reason?
Mu Xiaoxiao looked down, thoughts running through her mind.
Suddenly, she lifted the blanket and got off the bed.
Without even changing her clothes or taking her jacket, she hurried down the stairs.
Upon b.u.mping into a maid, the maid respectfully called out, “Miss, you’re up early today. Are you hungry? Should I prepare something for you now?”
As though Mu Xiaoxiao didn’t see her, she went straight to the door to the backyard.
Pus.h.i.+ng open the door, she put on the indoor slippers and hurried into the backyard.
“Miss?” The maid looked at her quizzically.
Mu Xiaoxiao had already disappeared into the bright morning sunlight.
The clear light of the morning fell upon on the gra.s.s and pearls of dew.
A pair of long legs ran over, disturbing the gra.s.s and the dewdrops hanging from the tips of the gra.s.s fell.
Mu Xiaoxiao quickly ran under the tree.
There were a lot of weeds nearby and she could see a bunch of small three-leaf clovers not far away.
She practically threw herself onto them, unconcerned with the fact that she was wearing pajamas as she knelt down on the ground and started looking for something.
No, no, no…
Silently, she kept looking for it.
The sun over her head gradually rose higher and the sunlight became clearer, s.h.i.+ning down through the gaps in the leaves of the trees.
Mu Xiaoxiao scoured through all of the three-leaf clovers but she still couldn’t find the legendary four-leaf clover.
