Mu Lan finally fell asleep at dawn as she couldn't sleep all night. It wasn't peaceful since she had a nightmare. She dreamt of a mad dog chasing after her and she was running away in a clown's disguise. When she woke up, she couldn't comprehend why she dreamed of something like that. Was it because Li Shen was acting like a mad dog or she was pretending to be a good person who had evil intentions? Who could tell anyway?
When Li Shen woke up, the first thing he asked the maids about her. "Did Xiao Lan wake up yet?"
One of the maids shook her head and replied, "Mistress didn't wake up. We went upstairs to call for her but she didn't reply. Thinking that she was tired, we didn't disturb her sleep."
Li Shen didn't say anything and went downstairs. He saw a maid from the kitchen and told her, "I won't have breakfast now. After Xiao Lan wakes up, we will eat together."
The maid bowed and replied, "I will let the chef know."
