Chapter 968: 234: The truth of the matter comes to light_3
Panic, helplessness...
Fortunately, on her way, she encountered a kind old lady who took her back home when she couldn’t find her mother.
The scene switched, and people from a village all gathered at the old lady’s house to watch the excitement.
The child, who was three or four years old, could already speak and successfully returned to Beijing with the help of the Village Chief.
Just as she was about to return home, Ni Cuihua suddenly woke up!
Despite the coolness of the room, a layer of cold sweat broke out on Ni Cuihua’s face.
Ni Cuihua fumbled to switch on the lamp and sat up leaning against the headboard.
"What’s wrong, Daya?" Shangguan Dehui groped for his glasses on the bedside table and put them on, "Did you have a nightmare?"
"Yes," Ni Cuihua nodded.
"Don’t be afraid," Shangguan Dehui patted Ni Cuihua’s back, "Dreams are the opposite of reality."
"I feel like I dreamed about my childhood," Ni Cuihua said, "but I’m not sure if that was me."
Strange to say, a child of three or four should have their own memories, although incomplete, there should be some, but Ni Cuihua’s memories of her childhood were extremely vague, she couldn’t remember anything before the age of five or six.
"What did you dream about?" Shangguan Dehui asked as he got out of bed to pour water for Ni Cuihua.
Ni Cuihua took the water glass, drank a sip, and then began to describe that strange dream.
Shangguan Dehui adjusted his glasses, "I think what you dreamed about is very likely to be true. Sometimes, the mind forgets, but the subconscious remembers."
Ni Cuihua said, "But I clearly dreamed that the Village Chief grandfather sent me back to Beijing, so why did I end up in Xiaomu Village later?"
Shangguan Dehui slightly furrowed his brows, "Maybe the you in the dream was so eager to go home that the part about returning to Beijing was also added by your subconscious?"
"Is that so?" Ni Cuihua asked.
Shangguan Dehui glanced at his watch, "It’s only one in the morning now, and I don’t have to work tomorrow since it’s Saturday. To prevent you from having another nightmare, why don’t we do something meaningful?"
Ni Cuihua rolled her eyes at Shangguan Dehui, "Turn off the light!"
Once the light was turned off, darkness enveloped the whole room, swallowing all sounds.
Ni Cuihua typically got up every morning to cook breakfast, but this morning, the person in the kitchen was Shangguan Dehui.
"Dad, why is it you?" Ni Yang expressed her surprise, "I thought it was Mom!"
Shangguan Dehui rinsed the pot with water, "Your mom didn’t sleep well last night, and I don’t have to work today. Yangyang, what would you like to eat? I’ll make it."
Ni Yang opened the fridge and took out a bottle of mineral water, "I’m fine with anything, you decide." 𝘯𝑜𝘷𝘱𝘶𝘣.𝘤𝘰𝑚
"That sounds good," Shangguan Dehui smiled, "then I’ll just whip something up."
"Okay," Ni Yang took the mineral water, "I’ll go for a run first."
"Alright," Shangguan Dehui nodded.
Ni Yang went for a run every morning.
At six in the morning, the sun was just rising; the sky was a clear blue, a gentle breeze was brushing through, birds chirped around, the rich fragrance of honeysuckle lingered in the air, and by the road, the farmland was filled with roses and portulaca.
The endless view was absolutely refreshing.
As soon as Ni Yang stepped out, Duoduo followed, "Good morning, Yangyang!"
"Good morning Duoduo."
Duoduo flapped its wings, "Good morning! Good morning!"
Duoduo didn’t know many phrases, sometimes repeating the same phrase dozens of times, even more repetitive than a loop machine.
Along the road, as they encountered villagers at work, Duoduo kept repeating "Good morning."
Everyone was amused by Duoduo first thing in the morning, starting the day in a cheerful mood.
"Duoduo is really smart!"
"It’s Yangyang’s good upbringing!"
"Indeed! My boy at home saw how well Duoduo was raised and caught a mynah to rear a month ago; just when it learned to fly, it disappeared! What a waste of time raising it!"
Liu Family Mansion.
Jiu Wentang did not sleep well last night; every time she closed her eyes, she recalled her experiences in the Detention Center.
She didn’t want to go to prison!
Not at all!
What should she do?
Once that thing was discovered, she would be ruined!
Jiu Wentang sat on the bed, painfully clutching her hair.
If only she had never come back!
She regretted it!
Liu Qinian being locked up was secondary; she never truly loved Liu Qinian.
Seriously, who in their right mind would fall in love with a man thirty to forty years older than themselves?
She was worried about her own safety; if she had not come back, she wouldn’t have encountered Ni Cuihua, and if she hadn’t met Ni Cuihua, Ni Cuihua might not have remembered those things...
