Just a dream

Gu Qingyao smiled, "Father, are you satisfied?"

Gu Yanzhi stared at the folder for a while, his expression revealing nothing. After a long while, he finally said: "It's enough, you don't need to go back to the company anymore."

"As long as father is satisfied." Gu Qingyao's tone was normal.

"Yes, I have a safe journey."

Gu Yanzhi quickly put down the phone, as though he was afraid that if he continued speaking, he would say something that he shouldn't have.

Li Muyan looked at Gu Qingyao, and couldn't help but smile: "What did you show him?"

"Something he should have seen." Gu Qingyao said with a smile.

She didn't want to threaten Gu Yanzhi in the first place. If Gu Yanzhi was willing to take half a step back, then Gu Qingyao didn't want things to go this way.

But Gu Yanzhi did not retreat, and it seemed like he would never retreat either.

The favors he had once had were still there, but they were like a mirage that was too far away to reach.

Gu Qingyao laughed, and said: "It's not anything important, but it's true that I had never thought of taking it out before. I thought that he wouldn't stop me like this."

Li Muyan knew that Gu Qingyao did not plan to say anything more, so he did not continue asking.

Gu Qingyao lowered her eyes and chuckled.

The journey was very long, after all, Gu Qingyao was not used to long distance travel. Occasionally, she would open her eyes and see Li Muyan calmly reading a book, as if he would never get tired.

She subconsciously sized up the person beside her. Li Muyan had a bland expression, but her eyelashes were very long.

Gu Qingyao stared at it for a while and could not help but smile.

Li Muyan laughed: "What's wrong? Feel bored? "

"Nope." Gu Qingyao said softly, her voice that carried a sense of drowsiness very soft.

Li Muyan's smile became even wider: "If you're tired, then you don't have to hold on, just sleep a little longer, it's enough to just adjust the time difference, after we get off the plane, we can do it again."

"But after getting off the plane, we'll have our first colloquium tomorrow." Gu Qingyao yawned, she took out the manuscript and prepared to read it again: "I am still a little nervous, this is my first time after all."

"Is this the first time you've said what you think in public?" Li Muyan asked calmly.

"Eh?" Gu Qingyao was startled. "That's not true."

"You are only narrating your thoughts. These thoughts are all from your heart, and you have made a lot of preparations for this, and what you need to do is to convey your thoughts. Since your thoughts are different from the others, you should be prepared to be questioned, but that doesn't matter, this is just a process of exploration." Li Muyan said.

Gu Qingyao was slightly startled, and subconsciously looked towards Li Muyan.

In her impression, Li Muyan was not good at persuading others.

But now … He was indeed trying to console her, trying to reason with her.

Gu Qingyao nodded her head, and agreed seriously: "I understand, and that these people have no interests in me, I am only using this place as a platform to release news, if what I say is true, then …. Everything may be different. "

"It will come true." Li Muyan said with certainty.

Gu Qingyao did not speak, and only lowered her eyes and smiled.

She knew that all of this would happen, but when Li Muyan said these words, it had a sweet taste to it.

Gu Qingyao said softly, "I'll rest for a while."

"Mm. Alright." Li Muyan nodded in agreement, and pulled up the blanket on Gu Qingyao's body.

His movements were meticulous and gentle, and the gaze he looked at Gu Qingyao with was also incomparably gentle.

Even in his dreams, Gu Qingyao felt that everything was warm, so beautiful that there was nothing to add.

Gu Qingyao woke up after a series of trembles.

She blinked her eyes and felt an intense headache. She looked at Li Muyan in confusion, her voice even becoming a little hoarse. "What's wrong? Have we arrived yet? "

"What did you dream?" Li Muyan stared at Gu Qingyao, there was something in his eyes that Gu Qingyao could not understand.

Gu Qingyao didn't know why she was covered in cold sweat when she woke up.

Gu Qingyao's thoughts seemed to have been sliced open by a knife. She subconsciously bit her lower lip, and thought back to the scene in her dreams.

That was the last time in his previous life. He was struggling on the sickbed, and the next thing that came to him was everyone's terrifying face.

It was as if everyone had turned into evil spirits, smiling and talking to themselves.

Stop struggling, you won't be able to escape.

Gu Qingyao fiercely closed her eyes and spoke in a hoarse voice: "No, nothing."

"It's really fine?" Li Muyan asked suspiciously.

"Hm, I'm fine." Gu Qingyao subconsciously pulled tightly on her blanket, and forced out a smile: "It's just that I'm a little too tired, maybe because I'm too nervous, so I had a nightmare."

"Is that so..." Li Muyan looked at Gu Qingyao for a long time, then said: "It's good that you're fine, it's better to drink some hot drinks."

"Okay, thank you, Mr. Li." Gu Qingyao said in a low voice.

Li Muyan looked at Gu Qingyao for a while and suddenly asked, "Do you want to hear my dream?"

"Eh?" Gu Qingyao's hand that was holding onto the cup slightly paused, she very rarely heard Li Muyan talk about her own matters, she nodded her head and replied: "Go ahead."

"I had a dream. I dreamt of it many times, but I never forgot the plot." Li Muyan seemed to be restraining his emotions, his fingers slightly curled up as he slowly continued, "I dreamt my father telling me that he actually wasn't dead at all. All these years, he had been suffering, and all of this was because of a friend that he trusted so easily, that I would be able to find out the truth for him and even give him justice."

Gu Qingyao looked at Li Muyan in shock, and only asked after a long while: "Is this just a dream?"

Li Muyan's expression was very complicated.

"Or should I say... "They say that dreams can only be dreamt at night. If you keep dreaming about these things, it might be because you also suspect the cause of your father's death that year …" Gu Qingyao said in a low voice.

Her hands trembled slightly.

She didn't know what Li Muyan meant by saying all these.

Could this also be related to Li Muyan coming closer to him?

If all of this was true, then who exactly was that friend whom Li Muyan's father trusted?

However, Li Muyan quickly recovered his calm expression: "Later on, when I thought about it carefully, my father passed away a long time ago, and there was no way to find out about these matters. Back then, I also saw the case with the Police station, where my father died in the line of duty, and he left very peacefully.

"It was just a dream." Gu Qingyao subconsciously repeated herself.

"Indeed, or what?" Li Muyan patted Gu Qingyao's head: "We're almost there, get ready to get off the plane."

"Alright." Gu Qingyao was unable to describe the taste at the bottom of her heart.
