⁜ Su Muyue POV
Standing outside the closed door, she felt something uncomfortable. It had been growing in her chest since the scene in her mind from that stupid dream... Ever since she began seeing him in her sleep and times of rest, Seth began to dominate her thoughts.
'It was just a dream... I am being stupid...'
Turning around, she brushed the silver keys in her pocket, the cold steel offering her some respite as she entered the apartment, looking over her shoulder once before slamming the door and locking all the bolts.
In the room, she had already moved her laptop and several clothes; the expensive glass table with black marble supports and a curved fixture to hold coffee and meals while working was now filled with empty cups, documents and research for her company and the 'dreams' she began to investigate.
"Hmph... that blonde girl, who was she?" Su Muyue punched the stuffed bear beside her while falling onto the stack of pillows on the floor before rolling onto her back and covering her eyes with a sigh.
The dream today was too upsetting...
'I thought he would die...'
'Why do I even care... Stupid... why are you so kind in the dream.'
She watched as a monstrous dog with a rotting body bit into his arm. The flesh tore as blood poured from the wound...
Mu Suyue didn't love Seth Darkwood or anything; she might have a curious crush due to his sudden changes and how cool he seemed in her dreams...
'Riding a motorbike was fun—should I buy one?'
The reality of the situation was that Su Muyue was just a lonely girl, and after seeing a dream where she believed something might have happened, she spent the afternoon cooking and trying to make a meal... her kitchen was filled with several failed attempts and charcoal, but was at least he accepted it.
"Since he wants to be a mean guy and likes blonde western women... hmph! I won't care anymore."

Her phone began to vibrate on the table. It was a message, but almost nobody messaged her.
She didn't have many friends, and they were all tired of her rejecting them over the past three years to reach her current success and stability...
"Who is it~ I wonder."

Tap! Tap! Tap! Tap!
The moment she opened the screen and entered her passcode, that wasn't the default 1234, honest... the sender was the idiot who made her pretty face sulk and the strange feeling in her chest that only became heavier the more she thought of him, another woman.
⁜ From (Seth Darkwood - Bad Guy)
Sorry if you felt the need to leave earlier. Elena has only arrived in the city, and I am the only one she knows since we are childhood friends and might have said some things that upset you.
I wanted to let you know that tomorrow, I will be moving to XXX-Fairview Mansion-XX1, so it might become difficult to meet afterwards.
If you have any questions or problems, you can contact me anytime... Also if you can please leave the city centre within three days... something bad might happen.
Sleep well, don't stay up too late.

Su Muyue slowly put her phone down, leaving the message open as she opened a messy notepad on her desk... then realised that the address was the same as the one Seth mentioned in her dreams, and something bad just clicked in her mind.
'Supplies, people I can trust and a secure place...'
Her mind began to combine all of the actions, events and memories, mixing them with reality and dreams as she opened the news programs, sent money and asked friends who worked on those scenes and stories...
"So... there were many deceased with bite wounds? Okay... thanks, Melanie."
'Everything is identical to the dreams of Seth... Is the woman in those scenes that blonde or me?'
Tack Tack Tack
Because she couldn't focus, there were many things she needed to do, and calculating it from the first dream that stated he had seven days, now there were three days to prepare...!
She opened up the map and began to search for the real estate in charge of the Fairview area... hours... how long did she spend calling and sending emails?
Luckily, she knew the wife of one of the managers at Gallows Estate Agents and, with her cold, fierce pushing, managed to organise the purchase of a new mansion using her assets tomorrow at noon.
"Hehe...XXX-Fairview Mansion-XX2 I am going to be his direct neighbour."
Her eyes became a little strange as she inputted the last details and arranged for a huge amount of bottled and secured water, replacement generators, solar panels and charging units...
She spent more than the mansion was worth to prepare, even paying to have the wall and gates improved within two days for both XXX-Fairview Mansion-XX2 and XXX-Fairview Mansion-XX1.
"Finally!" Her eyes were half closed as the moonlight was shimmering inside the room when she pulled two larger notepads written in her best writing with zero mistakes...
The top line read: Extreme Yang Solar Body Method.
The second book read: Solar Essence Breathing Method.
Su Muyue remembered the dream of when he chanted the information about these techniques, and now she was going to test if they worked.
"Phew..."
She stood up, slowly removing all of her clothes, her fair skin more beautiful than the moon's ethereal light shimmering down; in her haste, she didn't recall the part of needing the sunlight to cultivate as she walked onto the balcony, swaying her curvy hips as she sat on the floor and began to recite the cultivation manual...
"Guha!?" The next moment, her skin tore, and she vomited blood, but she continued despite the pain of her insides being burned, twisted and torn apart.
As she was about to collapse, a voice sounded in her mind, and the words and thoughts in her mind were completely changed.... even the notes and other information began to change like a fairy was using magic in real life.
The two books read are the Eternal Yin Lunar Body Method and the Lunar Radiance Breathing Method.
A loud crack sounded as she released a melodic moan, her lips shimmering with blood and the rosy colour of her cheeks returning as the moon's argent light began to envelop her body as she started her transformation.
From a cold-hearted beauty with a flabby stomach to a cultivating genius with a pure yin body.
"Nngh.... it feels much better. I know that voice must have been something he did for me!"
It seemed that once again, Su Muyue was straying further from the novel's plot, and her strange attachment and feeling towards Seth grew because when she cultivated, she could feel his presence as if he was sitting beside her and supporting her.
A happy tragedy because she had left the script, and now her only guiding lights were the dreams of Seth and her new interactions that were nothing like her memories.
