Chapter 98: Dreaming of That Night

In the pitch-black night, Yu Wan was sweating profusely as she lay on the messy hay. For some reason, her head hurt and her body was burning.

How could this be? What was wrong with her?

“I feel terrible…”

Her consciousness was a little blurry. However, she was shocked by this hoarse voice. How could she… This voice wasn’t hers!

The man’s face was inches away.

Who is this? Where am I?

Yu Wan’s mind was in a mess. She vaguely heard the man chuckle.

Laughing? What are you laughing at?

Yu Wan wanted to glare at him, but she realized that she couldn’t use any strength. Yu Wan was furious, so she simply raised her hand to push him away. However, she suddenly rolled down from the bed and fell heavily to the ground.

Yu Wan woke up!

Her heart beat violently as she opened her eyes. Her face flushed red.

At this moment, there was already a faint light in the sky.

Yu Wan heaved a long sigh of relief after realizing that she had just had an indescribable dream. That feeling was too real. It was so real that even when she woke up, the tip of her nose still seemed to be surrounded by the man’s aura. Even her fingertips…

Yu Wan looked at her hand. The touch in her dream was so real…

It was as if she had experienced it herself.

It must have been last night.

She had been single for two lifetimes. For the first time, she held a man’s hand. And she actually had a wet dream at night. It was really too embarrassing!

She shouldn’t have held that guy’s hand…

She must have seen too much display of affection at Uncle’s house, which makes her want to fall in love. But she had to choose a partner. How could it be Yan Jiuchao?

Yu Wan patted her head. “I must be confused…”

Click.

While she was thinking, there was a slight commotion outside the door. Yu Wan suddenly remembered that the deadline for the orders she received at Old Mrs. Wei’s birthday banquet was about to come. It was most likely Yu Feng who came to look for her to prepare for the orders. However, wasn’t Yu Feng afraid of waking up Little Bruiser and Madam Jiang? Didn’t he always get in through the back door?

Yu Wan opened the door in confusion, only to find that it was not Yu Feng. It was clearly Zhao Heng, whom she had not seen for many days.

It snowed in the middle of the night and stopped soon. However, the weather today was still affected. It was gloomy and a bone-chilling wind blew.

Zhao Heng was wearing a thick cloak and standing at the door with a cold expression.

Yu Wan glanced at him indifferently. “It’s early in the morning. What’s the matter?”

Zhao Heng could already accept Yu Wan’s coldness, but he was still not used to it. He frowned and said seriously, “I have something to tell you.”

Yu Wan said concisely, “If you’re here to repay your debt, then leave the money here. If you’re here to bargain, turn around and get lost.”

Although he knew that she had no feelings for him, he did not expect her to say such nasty words. Zhao Heng immediately blushed. “You… you…”

Yu Wan interrupted him. “What about me? Doesn’t Scholar Zhao understand human language? If you’re not here to repay your debt, you can get lost.”

Zhao Heng clenched his fists and forced himself to suppress the humiliation and anger in his heart. “I’m not going to argue with you today. I’m here to warn you that girls have to respect themselves. Don’t bring the bad habits you learned from the brothel into the village!”

Yu Wan looked at him as if she was looking at a fool.

No matter how many inexplicable phenomena appeared on Yu Wan’s body, Zhao Heng never believed that she had never entered a brothel because everyone in the world could lie to him, except that person.

Of course, Zhao Heng would not expose this matter. Although he wanted to divorce Yu Wan, he did not intend to destroy her. He was a gentleman, and a gentleman would not do shameful things.

Zhao Heng, who had found the aura of a gentleman, suddenly felt that he was very noble. He straightened his back and said, “You know in your heart what you have done. I advise you to restrain yourself. Don’t flirt with a man from the village. I saw it last night. You and that Young Master Wan were having an affair!”

Yu Wan suddenly smiled. “What does it have to do with you whether I become a proper person or not? Don’t forget that the village headman has already made the decision to annul our engagement. What identity are you questioning me with now? Former fiancé? Good neighbor? Or the only scholar in the village?”

These words hit Zhao Heng’s sore spot. Zhao Heng’s eyes turned red as he said anxiously, “You… don’t be shameless! If that young master knew that you weren’t a virgin, would he still want you?!”
