Chapter 88: Mi Fan’s POV (Part 1)
My name is Mi Fan. I’m a reporter.
When exactly was it when everything changed?
I became used to insomnia every night. I’ve repeatedly asked myself why? There were numerous times where I had wanted to refuse and start over, but sadly, I’ve already stepped onto this road.
I couldn’t break free. I could only cover my eyes and proceed forward.
This was similar to the feeling that I experienced when I had played on the beach. I was being very careful because I was afraid to dirty my shoes.
But unexpectedly, a fish leaped up from the waters and dirtied my pure, white shoes.
The dirt was extra conspicuous on my white shoes. It bothered me tremendously, yet I was helpless.
After some consideration, I decided that since my shoes were already dirty, I’ll just clean it when I get home.
So, I became more fearless and waded deeper into the waters.
Weeds and mud covered the soles of my shoes, but I was oblivious to it.
It wasn’t until my knees had submerged into the waters did I question myself why I was in this filthy water? I could no longer see my shoes; even my legs were muddy now.
I was stunned, and hastily tried to get back on shore. Surprisingly, it was as if there was something in the waters that was holding me back. It wouldn’t allow me to turn around. It had a death grip on me; as if it wanted me to remain in this filth with it forever.
No one came to save me. I watched as my sight of vision became lower and lower.
The beautiful scenery I once saw gradually disappeared from my view.
I was submerged.
I had been captivated by the sludge. I violently fought to keep my eyes open and noticed a filthy, stinky, greedy monster waving at me.
I desperately shouted for help, but no sounds came out.
Instead, the sludge entered my body from my mouth and I was ultimately devoured by the river.
Then, I concealed myself underwater as I looked up and anticipated for the next person to sink and accompany me.

Suddenly, I awoke from this suffocating dream.
I had cold sweat running down my entire body. I warily turned to the alarm clock next to me.
It was already 9am? How could I have slept in so much?
My body felt very heavy. I took a hot shower and checked my schedule for the day.
Oh yeah, today I have a blind date.
I silently laughed.
I finally agreed to it because my aunt wouldn’t shut up. 24 hours wasn’t even enough for my job. And I still had to find time to go on a blind date?
Thinking of this, I was quite moody…
I chose the most simplistic outfit to meet my match. From others, I was aware that my match was an online author.
The location we were meeting in was a very cozy and quiet coffee shop.
It had the type of atmosphere I enjoyed.
