Chapter 388 - Visiting Zhou Qingling’s Grave I (1/2)
When Jiang Ruolan woke up, it was dawn. She set the alarm clock at 3 am because she wanted to fly to G City to visit her mother's grave before 8 am, but when she looked at the time, it was already at 6 am. It was early spring, the weather was very sunny outside, and the weather today looked very good.
The darkroom began to be illuminated by sunlight. Jiang Ruolan put her hand in front of her eyes, and as she turned around, she found Xian Zihao had already gone.
Jiang Ruolan looked at the cold spot beside her for a long time before she regained her senses. She stretched out her hand and caressed the place where Xian Zihao had slept.
Jiang Ruolan remembered her dream last night. Xian Zihao was covered in blood, and she couldn't grab onto him, couldn't even touch him. She screamed as she caught up to his footsteps, but she could never reached him no matter what.
It was said that the mood of pregnant women was unstable and sometimes they will experience nightmares that will disturb their emotions. However, this dream was too real. It was so real and scary that she still felt a lingering fear.
After staring blankly for a moment, she hurriedly got up from the bed and ran out of her bedroom. Xian Zihao had promised to accompany her back to G City. Why did he disappear so early in the morning?
Jiang Ruolan was about to put on her clothes and go out when the door opened from the outside.
Xian Zihao was already wearing his well-dressed black shirt and black cotton pants. His short hair was clean and fluffy. He was naturally handsome. Just a glance from him immediately made her feel at ease.
”You're awake?” Seeing Jiang Ruolan standing in front of the door, Xian Zihao slowly closed the door and gave her the breakfast he had just bought. ”You had a nightmare last night and just fell asleep a few hours ago. I didn't want to wake you at 3 am because I wanted you to sleep more. Don't worry, I already called the airline and because it was raining heavily, the plane we booked last night was an hour late and still had not taken off.”
Jiang Ruolan's heart finally stopped beating so fast. She immediately opened her mouth and smiled. She took the tray of food and put it on the tea table.
Xian Zihao walked over as he frowned, ”Are you alright? You look so anxious just now, like the sky is about to collapse on you.”
”It's nothing. I had some nightmares last night, and haven't recovered from them yet.” Jiang Ruolan pouted her lips as she silently cursed herself for being childish.
Xian Zihao raised his pretty eyebrows and chuckled, ”What nightmare? About me?”
Jiang Ruolan felt a pang of discomfort as she thought about the scene in her dream. She turned her head and glared at him. ”You're asking me to dream about you? Who do you think you are? Hurry up and eat breakfast. After eating, we can go to G City. If we go early, we can go home early too. I don't want to delay your work.”
Xian Zihao only smiled and said no more.
Since there were not many cars on the road in the early morning, their journey was very fast and they arrived at the airport before the plane took off. Jiang Ruolan's heart finally felt relieved after she quickly passed the security and boarded the plane.
Although it was later than she had expected, it was still not early in the morning. At least she could still avoid meeting familiar people at the cemetery.
The drizzle dropped little by little. Jiang Ruolan held a handful of chrysanthemums in her hand. She was wearing a long white dress and a black coat. Xian Zihao had a bag of some items for her to sweep the grave in one hand, while his other hand held an umbrella over their heads.
The two of them slowly walked into the cemetery on the western edge of G City. Jiang Ruolan can only visit this place once a year on certain days because it was too remote and too hidden.
