Qiao Yiyi said this boldly and then, supporting Lu Nanze, they walked back into the room.
After she made sure that the man had gotten back into bed and was laying down, she walked to her own bed, got in, shut her eyes and went back to sleep.
Lu Nanze had been exhausted before this but, because of needing the toilet, he had been kept awake. And now, even though he had relieved himself, he was still unable to sleep.
Because Qiao Yiyi’s face kept flas.h.i.+ng through his mind.
She had played a trick on Li Tingting, pretending to be weak. She had also confessed her deep feelings for him and even just then, he had seen those little gestures that showed her disgust towards him.
Although clearly knowing that he was in love with Traceless, Lu Nanze now couldn’t help being attracted to Qiao Yiyi.
In the past, she had been invisible to him, like thin air.
He had never taken notice of her and couldn’t even remember what she looked like, how tall she was, how fat.
But he suddenly realized that Qiao Yiyi was taking shape in his mind.
There was something special about her that attracted him.
The man turned and looked at the girl who was sleeping close by. He frowned.
In the dark, he couldn’t see her clearly, but he could sense that she was asleep.
Her light, shallow breathing was oddly rea.s.suring.
He found that his ill feelings towards her had vanished and realized his growing interest in her, in the confession she had just made.
What a strange feeling.
He frowned. He certainly had never been a man who could get easily swayed by women but tonight, he was being swayed by two women. What a tragedy!
At this thought, the man shut his eyes tightly, preventing himself from thinking further about this.
On this same night, he had a dream.
In his dream, Traceless was standing before him, her head held high and saying as she looked at him, “Lu Nanze, do you really like me?”
The man nodded and replied, “Yes, I really do like you.”
“Well then, divorce your wife. I, Traceless, will never be a mistress!”
He nodded resolutely. “Alright, I’ll get a divorce!”
But turning around, he saw Qiao Yiyi crying her heart out as she looked at him. She said, “Mr. Lu, how could you treat me like this when I like you so much? I like you, you can’t divorce me.”
Lu Nanze: …
The man coughed slightly and started, “But I like Traceless.”
Qiao Yiyi looked up instantly and said, “You like girls like Traceless? I can become like her too!”
Hence, she put on a mask and lifted her chin, immediately transforming into Traceless.
Lu Nanze was shocked and started, “You- you-”
Behind him, Traceless asked, “Lu Nanze, what’s up with you?”
He turned around, now facing the other Traceless who said, “Lu Nanze, you can’t divorce me.”
And then…
He woke up with a start.
His forehead was drenched. It was the middle of the night. He then realized that the anesthesia in his leg had worn off and was in great pain.
He frowned and tried to move. Then he sighed heavily.
What a strange dream. Seriously.
But he did like Traceless, so he had to keep a distance from Qiao Yiyi.
At this thought, he turned to look at Qiao Yiyi and saw that she was sleeping soundly.
Lu Nanze: …
He yelled, “Qiao Yiyi!”
She woke up with a jump. “What?”
