Gu Xiaonian bit his lip and raised his eyes to look at him.

It's an illusion.

Because I just woke up and had not been able to completely escape from the dream, I saw Li Nancheng as the man in her nightmare.

Because they all grow tall, they look so similar.

That's all.

"It's nothing, I just dreamed that there was a terrible ghost chasing me. I was anxious and afraid..." She lied and didn't tell him the real dream.

"That's it?" Li Nancheng looked at her with some doubts.

"Well, that's it." Gu Xiaonian nodded, avoided his sight, jumped out of bed barefoot, "I'll wash my face and wake up."

After saying that, she ran into the bathroom.

Li Nancheng turned around and stared at her back for a while, with a thoughtful look on his face.

Gu Xiaonian is lying.

When she said that to him just now, her eyes kept blinking.

As soon as she lies, she will blink constantly.

The terrible thing she dreamed of was definitely not a ghost.

But she was unwilling to tell him the real dream.

Why?

Is it a secret she dreamed that he couldn't know?

Also, he did not ignore the moment she opened her eyes. When he saw him, her series of subconscious reactions and the defense in her eyes.

At that moment, she was like a frightened hedgehog, her thorns all over her body stood up, guarding against her as much as the enemy.

That was her physical instinctive reaction.

Thinking of this, Li Nancheng's eyes were slightly deeper and he frowned.

...

In the bathroom.

Gu Xiaonian patted her face with cold water, rushed her face toward the faucet for a while, and then she felt that she was truly awake.

She looked up at herself in the mirror.

Her face was still wet, full of water, and the water on her face flowed down her jaw to her neck.

The person in the mirror had a pale face and a little dazed in his eyes.

It looks restless.

She supported her hands on the toilet, took a few deep breaths, and closed her eyes.

This is not the first time she dreamed of the dream just now.

One night five years ago, she had such a dream.

After that, she would dream once every once in a while.

Sometimes it is once or twice a month, and sometimes it is only once every few months.

Every time I dream of something is exactly the same.

In the dark room where I couldn't see my fingers, on the soft and wide bed, there was the man who couldn't see his face and violated her roughly.

In the dream, she could feel real pain.

The moment the man occupied her, she felt the tearing pain.

Even when she woke up, she could still feel a little pain.

It seems that it has been occupied by someone.

This dream has bothered her for many years.

Before this dream, she had never had a repeated dream.

Not to mention this dream that has been repeated for many years.

Everything that happened in the dream was so clear and so real, just as she had really experienced it in real life.

In the past, although Gu Xiaonian found it strange, he didn't take it seriously.

But today, especially after she opened her eyes and trance overlapping Li Nancheng with the figure of the person in her dream, a thought that even she herself felt was crazy suddenly popped up in her mind.

If what she thinks is not a dream.

This thought made her excited again, and she couldn't calm down for a long time.

Her heart beats very quickly.

...

Gu Xiaonian stayed in the bathroom for a long time.

After a long time, Li Nancheng was worried that something had happened to her, so he ran to the bathroom to see her.

After confirming that she was fine, he felt a little relaxed, but he still looked at her worriedly, with a full look in his eyes: "Are you still thinking about that nightmare?"

He could feel that Gu Xiaonian was in a bad mood today.

It seems nothing wrong on the surface, but my eyes are always floating.

It seems to be something to worry about.

Li Nancheng wiped his mouth and put the toothbrush in: "I'm fine. What time is it now? Don't you have something to do today? Why haven't you left yet?"

She refused to say it, and Li Nancheng didn't ask again.

She insisted on hiding it from him, and no matter how much he asked, he would not be able to ask.

"At half past eight." Seeing that she had washed her face, brushed her teeth, and began to apply skin care products on her face, Li Nancheng asked, "Are you not sleeping?"

There were obvious dark circles under her eyes, and she knew that she didn't sleep well last night.

I must have been frightened by that nightmare.

In the past, she had to sleep back.

"Well, I don't want to sleep anymore." Gu Xiaonian turned around after applying skin care products, and saw him standing at the door and looking at her. He was stunned, "Aren't you going out to do business today?"

At this time yesterday, he had already packed up and went out.

"You have to go out." Li Nancheng explained to her, "Mr. Allen called and said it would be delayed a little, so there is no need to rush to go out now."

"Oh." She nodded.

Li Nancheng looked at her dark circles and frowned, "You didn't have a good rest last night, really won't sleep for a while?"

"I'm not sleepy." Gu Xiaonian didn't lie to him.

Although she didn't sleep well and was very energetic, she really didn't sleep now.

She had something in her mind and couldn't sleep at all.

"Are you hungry? I'll take you down to have breakfast." Li Nancheng frowned and kept looking at her.

Gu Xiaonian always looked like she was not in the state.

When she did this, Li Nancheng was worried about leaving her behind.

Gu Xiaonian touched her stomach and nodded slightly: "Well, I'm a little hungry."

"Then go have breakfast, wait for me, and I'll pack it up soon."

Gu Xiaonian looked at him deeply, and the words he said last night echoed in his ears.

She didn't know whether to ask him in person, what did he mean?

She wanted to ask, but she felt that it was useless to ask.

Because, he would definitely say that she heard it wrong like last time.

He would not admit it.

I won't tell her the truth.

Although he didn't know what the truth was, he would definitely be an ulterior motive of hiding it so deliberately.

He knew this secret, and Si Ming also knew it.

But she didn't know.

After hesitating for a moment, she chose to remain silent.

She glanced at him and walked out of the bathroom: "Then I'll wait for you outside."

It would be fine if she didn't know some things, but once she knew, she would definitely find a way to figure them out.

Li Nancheng refused to tell her, so she just thought of a way.

...

Pack up and go downstairs to have breakfast.

The breakfast was very rich.

Li Nancheng ordered the pastries that Gu Xiaonian usually likes to eat.

He kept paying attention to her.

Then, she found that Gu Xiaonian was always absent-minded. Even after she served her favorite mousse cake, she didn't take a look at it, as if she was indifferent.

In normal times, she also needs to eat at least three pieces.
