There seemed to be something pressing against Mu Xiaoxiao's chest that was causing her to feel uncomfortable and depressed.
The radiator was on and the temperature felt just right, but there was a thin layer of sweat coating her body.
Since she could not fall back asleep anymore, Mu Xiaoxiao took off the covers, put on her slippers, and walked over to the window.
Opening the window revealed a gray world outside that resembled a fairyland.
The rain was light and the raindrops fell against the window pane in thin streaks.
Mu Xiaoxiao breathed onto the window pane and watched it fog up.
She wrote something absent-mindedly with her finger.
Upon reading it, she realized that she had actually written "Jie" and could not help but smile.
She pressed her hand against her chest. Traces of the nightmare before still lingered as though it was something that could not be waved away.
What had she dreamt about? Mu Xiaoxiao frowned.
She could vaguely remember that it had something to do with Jun Zeye.
Oh yeah, he had been shot! Could it be that his injury had worsened? Was that why she had a nightmare?
Mu Xiaoxiao pondered about the possibility of this.
She turned around and walked out of the room.
She met a helper at the door, who nodded at her and said, "Miss, you're awake. Please wait while I get you some water."
Mu Xiaoxiao shook her head and asked, "Is Yin Shaojie home?"
"The Young Master has just gone into the study." The helper gestured in the direction of the study.
"Okay." Mu Xiaoxiao indicated that she did not need her services and could leave.
She then walked towards the study.
The door to the study was half-closed.
She was about to push the door open before she heard Yin Shaojie say, "I have no time these days and won't be going anywhere. Go look for someone else and don't say anything more. I know that this matter is really important to you, but I really can't leave right now. Yes, I don't care even if that happens."
His severe tone indicated the importance of this matter.
Yet he was telling the other party that he could not leave and would not be able to leave anytime soon.
Mu Xiaoxiao thought and could only come up with a single reason. It was because of her birthday, right?
Her birthday was almost here. To celebrate it with her, he was rejecting everyone even if it was important.
Knock knock——
Mu Xiaoxiao reached out to knock on the door.
If this was any other time, she would not knock on the door but just barge in instead.
Yin Shaojie returned to his senses and smiled at her upon seeing her. He then spoke to the other party in a low voice before hanging up.
"Slept enough?" He walked over. His long fingers caressed her face and tucked stray hairs behind her ears.
Mu Xiaoxiao pouted and said, "I had a nightmare and woke up in fright."
"Nightmare? What nightmare?" Yin Shaojie held her hand and led her to the sofa.
He picked up the extension on the desk and asked the helpers to send some food over.
Mu Xiaoxiao shook her head. "I don't remember anymore."
Yin Shaojie aske, "How did you know it was a nightmare then?"
Mu Xiaoxiao frowned. "I just know. I felt it. When I woke up, I felt really uncomfortable, as though something was pressing down on me. I don't feel good now."
Upon hearing this, he reached out to touch her forehead. Certain that she was not running a fever, he relaxed.
"Do you feel sick?" She had been out in the rain for so long last night and he was worried that she would get sick.
Mu Xiaoxiao thought about it for a while. "I don't feel sick, but… I feel uncomfortable here."
She pointed to her heart.
