Shi Nuan had a dream, in the dream, she was still very young.
She and her mother sat under the eaves, her mother was arranging flowers, and she watched from the side.
She thought those flowers were beautiful, very beautiful, just like her mother, equally beautiful.
She often heard other ladies say she looked a lot like her mom, so in the future, she would be as beautiful as her mom, right?
Thinking of this, she felt very happy.
That day, her mother placed a small yellow flower in her hair at her temple.
She also picked up a small yellow flower and placed it at her mother's temple.
The two of them smiled at each other.
Time was incredibly soft and quiet, she felt very happy, and accidentally, tears fell.
Then, she felt a hand wiping her tears, that touch was very gentle, slowly soothing her skin, she felt very comfortable.
Her heart stirred, her eyelashes fluttered, and her eyes slowly opened.
Her vision changed from blurred to clear, but the light was especially dazzling.
She closed her eyes again and smelled the scent of soda water, so was this... a hospital?
Thinking this, suddenly Song Yichuan popped up in her mind....
Xiao Chuan....
She suddenly opened her eyes, a hand lifted as if trying to grasp something....
And in fact, she did catch something —
A warm hand, little by little, enclosed her own hand....
"Awake?"
A deep, magnetic male voice came through, mixed with a slight hoarseness, yet it felt very comfortable against her ear.
And in her sight, a man's outline gradually carved itself in.
Very young, very handsome, even, one might say, charming....
In an instant of daze, Shi Nuan recognized this man as Song Yansheng....
Him again!
Shi Nuan raised her hand, wanting to shake off the hand he was holding, but she didn't succeed!
"Let go of me...."
Shi Nuan shouted.
The man frowned, saying, "I can let go of you, but promise me, don't make trouble for now, this isn't the time for you to be willful!"
Shi Nuan gritted her teeth, "That also has nothing to do with you, you promised me you wouldn't tell anyone about that night, you're a liar!"
Song Yansheng's brow lightly furrowed, saying, "I did promise you, but under the circumstances, how do you think I should have put it? Say we just talked and drank tea that night, did nothing.... Do you think your stepmother, the police, would believe it? Moreover, in the situation where you were under the influence of that kind of drug...."
Shi Nuan's face turned ashen, shouting, "All nonsense! That night, you could have completely avoided touching me.... So it's still you, all because of you...."
The man's obscure eyes met her gaze, Shi Nuan's face remained pale, looking very fragile, but her eyes were bright, deep, distinctly black and white.... carrying a sense of stubbornness and defiance!
He seemed to sigh and said, "I didn't intend to touch you, it was you who held onto me and wouldn't let go, you said: Second Uncle, I feel so miserable.... At the time, you cried a lot, begged me not to leave...."
"You're lying—"
A hint of redness flashed across Shi Nuan's pale face, she bit her lip and said, "Impossible, I have no memory of it at all...."
"Just because you don't remember, doesn't mean it didn't happen...."
Song Yansheng's voice remained calm, he said, "Nuannuan, do you truly believe that I, Song Yansheng, am the kind of person who would take advantage of someone's vulnerability?"
"Aren't you?"
Shi Nuan's breath was weak, after speaking a few words she was somewhat panting, as she exhaled, she said, "No matter how much I... clung to you, you shouldn't have treated me like this.... Don't forget you're Xiao Chuan's Second Uncle!"
"You and Xiao Chuan have already broken up, besides Nuannuan...." The man's thin lips moved, and he said, "Don't forget, I... am a normal man!"
