Xu Nianhua suddenly opened her eyes to find darkness enveloping the room, her back ice cold and her heart in extreme discomfort. That suffocating, gripping pain forced Xu Nianhua to breathe deeply.
She rolled her eyes, taking a long while to come to her senses.
Forgetting even her shoes, Xu Nianhua ran straight into her second brother's room, and only upon seeing him asleep did she realize it had all been a dream, that reality had shifted.
In the bed, Xu Nian'an vaguely felt someone watching him. When he opened his eyes and saw a figure standing in his room, he was startled and jolted backwards.
"Second Brother, it's me."
Xu Nianhua hastened to identify herself.
Recognizing his little sister's voice, Xu Nian'an naturally knew her and, upon realizing it was her, he let out a sigh of relief. From outside the window, a breeze blew in, chilling his back.
"Little sister, why aren't you sleeping and instead running to my room in the middle of the night?"
