C75 (1/2)
Actually, I had already suspected that he was still alive.
It wasn't the first time I saw a figure that was similar to Lin Mu's, nor was it the first time I felt his presence.
It was something I'd never believed, because in my subconscious I'd accepted the news of his death.
The news that Zhou Zijin brought is simply like a clap of thunder, catching me off guard.
They will never know just how great of an impact Lin Mu's revival was to me.
I used to want to see him, but now, I want him to stay away from my life.
Zhou Zijin promised that he would help me find him, but after a long while, there was no news at all. I know, if Lin Mu doesn't want others to find him, then we won't be able to do so no matter what.
If he really was still alive, then maybe …
I opened the social networking software I had used to communicate with him, although it hadn't been used in a long time.
But I had a glimmer of hope that if he occasionally remembered...
I left a message on every one of his software.
”Lin Mu, I don't know if you will be able to see this news, nor do I know if you will live or die.
If you are still alive, then please stop tormenting me. Come out and let us explain everything clearly...
”Don't let me continue to hate you …”
However, these news also sank to the bottom of the sea.
These days I never eat well or sleep well.
Sometimes he would dream of him and wake up from a nightmare.
I feel like I'm living in his shadow and I can't get out.
”Qianqian, what's wrong with you?”
It was another nightmare. After waking up from my dream, I abruptly sat up.
He was covered in cold sweat.
In the dream was the bloated face, coming toward me, little by little.
It was telling me that it was accusing me of being ruthless.
He struggled with all his might, but he couldn't move no matter how hard he struggled.
It scared me.
Jiang Yu hugged me from behind, as if he could feel my trembling.
”Don't be afraid, don't be afraid of me.”
His voice reassured me.
”I …”
But at the same time that he felt at ease, a sense of guilt arose within him.
In the end, I still betrayed Lin Mu.
No! It wasn't me who betrayed him, it was him who betrayed me!
If he's still alive, why did he lie to me that I was already dead!
If he were to die …
Why? Why are you still tormenting me?!
With that in mind, I forcefully pushed him away. Caught off guard, Jiang Yu's head heavily smashed against the bedside.
It was a good thing that the headboard was made of soft leather. If not, he really didn't know what would have happened …
When I reacted, I immediately turned around to check on Jiang Yu. Jiang Yu held my hand and shook his head, saying that he was fine.
”I'm sorry …”
