Peerless CEO Falls In Love With Me

C216 Nightmare



C216 Nightmare

0When I opened my eyes, I saw Dong Xue in a white cotton nightgown, her hair still wet. She was standing at the head of the bed, looking at me.    

    

The interior was bright, and looking out the window, the sun was shining.    

    

"Ke, you're awake —" Dong Xue said.    

    

"What time is it?" I wiped the sweat from my forehead.    

    

"It's 11 in the morning." Dong Xue sat beside my bed and caressed my forehead. "Ke, you're having a nightmare."    

    

I sat up and looked at Dong Xue. "You woke up a long time ago?"    

    

"I just woke up. I just took a shower!" Dong Xue said.    

    

I looked at Dong Xue who had just taken a bath. She looked fresh and tender like a lotus blooming in water. I couldn't help but be mesmerized.    

    

Seeing my eyes, Dong Xue's white face showed a slight blush. However, there was a hint of unease in her eyes.    

    

I reached out and took Dong Xue's hand. "Dong Xue."    

    

"Mm …" Dong Xue let me hold her hand and promised in a low voice.    

    

"You're so beautiful." I said sincerely and gently rubbed Dong Xue's slender and delicate hands.    

    

Dong Xue's blush started to spread, then she sighed softly and bit her lips.    

    

"Go take a bath." After a moment, Dong Xue gently pulled her hand away from mine and stood up. She walked to the window and looked out with her back to me.    

    

When I finished my shower and got dressed, I saw that Dong Xue had changed her clothes and was sitting on the sofa, holding her chin as she thought about something.    

    

Seeing me come out, Dong Xue looked up at me. "Are you hungry?"    

    

I nodded. "What about you?"    

    

"I'm hungry!"    

    

"Shall we go downstairs for dinner?"    

    

Dong Xue stood up.    

    

Until now, we hadn't talked about what to do next, and neither of us seemed willing to bring it up first.    

    

We went downstairs to the cafeteria, ordered our favorite fried rice cake once, and ate in silence.    

    

After the meal, we didn't leave. We just sat there, looking at each other. I knew that it was time to ask the unavoidable question.    

    

"Ke, you're leaving, aren't you?" Dong Xue spoke first.    

    

I nodded.    

    

When Dong Xue said this, she was undoubtedly saying that I wanted to return to Hsinghai. However, she had never asked me what I was doing in the Hsinghai.    

    

"Oh …" Dong Xue responded with an 'oh'. Her eyes were a little dazed, and there was even a bit of anticipation that couldn't be said out loud.    

    

"What are you doing in Ningzhou?" I asked Dong Xue.    

    

"Me?" Dong Xue smiled faintly. "Unemployed vagabond!"    

    

"Then... You... "You …"    

    

I wanted to say, "Will you come with me?" but I didn't because I didn't know how I would be treated if I said it.    

    

Dong Xue was silent for a while and then looked at me. "Ke, why don't you ask me what I did in the past?"    

    

"Why do you ask? Do you want me to know? Do you want to tell me? " "No," I said.    

    

Dong Xue said slowly, "I told you last night that you shouldn't have come to find me. This is a barrier, a barrier in your heart. So, regardless of whether I'm willing to tell you or not, I'll wait for you to ask. "    

    

I understood what Dong Xue meant, and my heart ached. "I don't want to ask."    

    

"Why?" Dong Xue's voice sounded distant and ethereal.    

    

My heart hurt more and more. Lowering my head, I kept silent for a long time before raising my head to look at Dong Xue. "How long have I been away from you? I believe that whatever happened in the past, whatever you and I have done in the past, what we have done in the past, is true. I, you, our feelings for each other, are real.    

    

In the past, I have been enduring the torment of separation, seeing each other again. I believe, I see that you still have the unquenchable love of the past for me. I don't want to ask because I don't want you, I, to be hurt again because I believe we have tomorrow. We can still pick up the memories of the past, we can go back to the past, and I believe that as long as we both have the same heart, we will be able to walk through this obstacle. "    

    

Even though he said that, he didn't have any idea whether or not I could truly cross over this hurdle.    

    

I don't have any confidence in myself, and neither do I have any confidence that Dong Xue will be able to surpass me.    

    

I don't want to ask about the past, but that doesn't mean I don't care. But whatever the reason, the truth has already happened.    

    

Of course, I would like to know the real reason why Dong Xue left me, but, at this moment, just after meeting again, I feel that I cannot ask, this is not the time.    

    

First of all, it was not the right time. Second of all, I was not willing to believe that Dong Xue would betray our past feelings, and I would rather believe that Dong Xue was forced to avoid the past with a sense of escape and luck. Third of all, I didn't know what despicable and despicable method Duan Xiangloong had used to attack me.    

    

Dong Xue bit her lips and stared at me blankly. After a while, she said, "Alright, since I have your words, I'll go with you."    

    

Dong Xue's voice was slightly hoarse.    

    

Dong Xue is willing to go with me, my heart suddenly relaxed, but somehow also felt a little hollow.    

    

"Alright!" I nodded.    

    

"Last year, I went to look for you, but I couldn't find you. Afterwards, I didn't have the thought of looking for you again, because, I suddenly felt that I was no longer worthy of looking for you. Although my heart is always thinking about you, I can't forgive myself for the things that happened in the past." Dong Xue muttered.    

    

"No--don't say it, don't say it!" I interrupted Dong Xue and said urgently, "As I said, I don't want to know. I don't want to know about the past. I only believe in my own eyes. I only believe in my own heart. I believe in what I saw again yesterday. "    

    

"Ke, it seems like you want to deceive yourself. What are you trying to escape from?" Dong Xue said.    

    

"I don't want to force myself, and I don't want to force you, and I don't want to hurt all of us either." I said, "I think we can try to start over, try to erase the past with time, try to start a new life for us. "I want to try. Are you willing?"    

0

    

"If you don't want to, will I come with you?" Dong Xue looked at me and reached out to take my hand.    

    

I clenched Dong Xue's cold hands tightly and looked at her. "Alright, let's take the six o'clock flight tonight. I'll go and book a plane ticket for you later."    

    

Dong Xue nodded. "Then I'll go back and pack my stuff."    

    

"I'll send you back. After that, I have something to do!" "No," I said.    

    

Before Dong Xueli and I left the Ningzhou, I planned to look for Qin.    

    

Dong Xue and I left the hotel and took a taxi. We sat in the back seat and when we left, I said, "Let's go to Donghu Garden first."    

    

Dong Xue's body shuddered slightly as she looked at me. "Ke, how do you know where I live?"    

    

"A while ago, I saw you at the entrance of Donghu Garden. You passed me by." "No," I said.    

    

"Ah!" Dong Xue exclaimed in a low voice. "Then …" You... "Why did you do that?"    

    

"I almost wanted to call you back then, but …" "At that time, I didn't know that you had already …"    

    

"You went by yourself?"    

    

"No, with Haifeng, let's go and drink turtle soup nearby."    

    

Dong Xue turned around and looked at me. "It was Haifeng who stopped you, wasn't it? If there had been no Haifeng, you would have called me, wouldn't you? "    

    

I didn't say anything, tacitly.    

    

"What's the occupation of Haifeng's sister, Hai Zhu?" Dong Xue asked again.    

    

"Air attendant!"    

    

"Air stewardess …" Dong Xue repeated, then said, "Which airline? Where did you fly from? "    

    

"Ningzhou to Hsinghai, from the southern route!" "No," I said.    

    

Dong Xue turned her head to look out of the window and said nothing.    

    

Dong Xue got off at the gate of Donghu Garden. We agreed to meet her here at four o'clock and then we would go to the airport together.    

    

Then, I went to find Qin.    

    

Passing by an airline ticket office on the side of the road, I got off the car and bought a plane ticket to Hsinghai. I already knew Dong Xue's ID number by heart, so I didn't need to ask Dong Xue.    

    

After buying the plane ticket, I called Qin and said that I would go to the bachelors. Qin said not to go there and asked me to meet him at a nearby teahouse.    

    

Twenty minutes later, Qin and I met in a private room in the teahouse.    

    

"Boss Lee regained his Hsinghai." As soon as he saw Qin, he said, "His parents called and told him to go back and arrange a marriage. He hasn't come back yet."    

    

I nodded. "I got it. How's the situation over here?"    

    

"The baccarat here is still the same, red and fiery." Qin looked at me and said, "You want to know about Duan Xiangloong, right?"    

    

I nodded. "It's still the same as what I told you yesterday. There's nothing new. That's right, he fell in last night and lost 60 of them. He doesn't have enough money with him, so he took 20 loans.    

    

I couldn't help but be shocked. Duan Xiangloong lost 600 thousand last night. According to this game, his family's wealth wouldn't be enough.    

    

"Right now, his family foundation is still thick, so he has to go through a lot. This guy couldn't free himself, he would definitely come back tonight to play. However, at this rate, I think it won't be long before we get to the bottom of this. "Boss Lee has instructed us not to let him lose. Tonight, we will let him win a little, and in the future, he will continue to be like this. Maybe we should give him some benefits, but, of course, we have to let him lose a lot."    

    

I took a long drag on my cigarette and said nothing.    

    

"You want to save him?" Qin looked at me.    

    

My heart shuddered as I said hesitantly, "I don't know. I was thinking …"    

    

"How do you want to save him? You shouldn't have saved him? Can you save him? " Qin interrupted me, "Do you understand the psychology of gamblers? Once a person became addicted to gambling, it was basically no different from taking drugs. It was hard to quit. Moreover, even if you wanted to save him, according to your past, do you think he would listen to you? Did he take your kindness for a mule? Did he think you were planning to harm him? "Brother, from what I've said, for some people, kindness may not be repaid. Everyone has chosen their own path."    

    

I was silent.    

    

Qin looked at me with calm eyes. "Although I don't know how he defeated you or took away your woman, but he is sorry for you. He used despicable and insidious means to destroy your career and love. There is no doubt about it, I am sure.    

    

Yi Ke, don't you want to take revenge on him? Don't you want to see him walk towards death step by step? "Right now, it's the best chance. I don't need you to waste any energy, with the help of Brocade, with Boss Lee's help, and with the help of me, we can completely put him in a situation where he's ruined. I can imagine his final outcome right now."    

    

I exhaled. "Even if I wanted to, I didn't want to. I planned this baccarat, and I feel like I've committed a crime."    

    

Qin said: "Brother, I can see that although you are very strong on the outside, your heart is very fragile and kind, you are too kind, in this world, a kind heart does not always get the good reward, you treat others with a kind heart, do not know to guard against others, but are often easy to be used by others, thus harming yourself.    

    

"Sometimes, people aren't hurt by others, they are directly destroyed by themselves, destroyed by their own nature. In this society, if you want to survive, if you want to do well, then you have to learn how to be ruthless. This is the logic of being neither a cruel nor a cruel man.    

    

Qin's words hit a weak point in my personality, so I started to ponder.
