***
A very sweet feeling.
He was intoxicated!
Mai Xiaomai, in her sleep, unconsciously responded...
She was also having an extremely passionate dream at the time.
In the dream, she and Qiao Chutian were kissing.
Just as she was enjoying the intimate embrace, suddenly, she discovered that Qiao Chutian had turned into Cheng Dongcheng, his body mangled and bloodied, grimacing at her.
"Ah—"
She screamed, and with a forceful push...
The unexpectedly assaulted Qiao Chutian was pushed by her, tumbling backward, with a loud thud, hitting the bed frame, leaving him dizzy and nearly concussed...
Mai Xiaomai awoke from this nightmare, unsettled and wide-eyed, first blinking and surveying her surroundings, then noticing Qiao Chutian sitting awkwardly on the other side of the bed, touching the back of his head with a grimace.
"What happened? Did I have a nightmare?"
She clutched the quilt close, looking at Qiao Chutian with innocent confusion, "That dream was truly terrifying!"
