"Xia Xia, what's wrong?" Chen Yang, who was lying beside Qiao Anxia, was startled awake by her. He sat up in a daze and asked with a face full of concern.
Qiao Anxia glanced at Chen Yang, realizing that she just had a dream. She secretly let out a sigh of relief, and reached out to hug Chen Yang's waist. She buried her face in his chest and said softly, "Nothing, I just had a nightmare."
Chen Yang hugged Qiao Anxia and found a comfortable position to lie down. His hand gently patted her back. "Sleep, don't be afraid, I'm here."
Qiao Anxia didn't make a sound, but she tightened her grip on Chen Yang's waist.
The night fell into silence once again. Qiao Anxia felt the strength of Chen Yang's patting on her back gradually disappear, and his breathing became rhythmic and long. She knew that he was fast asleep, but she didn't feel the slightest bit sleepy.
Qiao Anxia opened her eyes and stared at the sleeping Chen Yang for a while. Then she quietly moved his hand away from her body, lifted the covers, and got off the bed. She walked out of the bedroom.
Qiao Anxia first went to the kitchen and grabbed an iced bottle of RIO. She opened it and took a sip. Then she walked to the balcony and stared at the dim lights in the dead of the night. She thought back to the dream she just had.
In the dream, Qiao Anhao found out about the mistake she had made in the past. She angrily pointed at her and said that she had ruined her entire life of happiness. In the dream, Qiao Anhao even cried. She cried that she had always treated her as a good sister in this world, but how could she treat her like that?
That kind of accusation, that kind of anger, it was so real.
Qiao Anxia couldn't help but grip the RIO bottle in her hands. The cold touch calmed her uneasy heart a little.
Since young, she had grown up with Qiao Anhao and Xu Jiamu. The three of them were inseparable and had a good relationship. There were practically no secrets between them, but there was one thing that Qiao Anhao and Xu Jiamu didn't know.
Before graduating from university, she had been living a luxurious life that everyone envied. She had dated many handsome boyfriends. Among so many boyfriends, some were impulsive, some were exciting, and some were to fill the loneliness and emptiness. However, it did not mean that she had not been moved.
In her senior year, when she was about to graduate, she befriended a broadcasting host from Shanghai TV station. He was tall and handsome, his voice was magnetic and charming, but what she really liked about him was that he gave off an aloof and aloof vibe, a little like... Lu Jinnian.
Back then, she was the same as she was now. Even though she was unwilling, she no longer had any hope for Lu Jinnian. At first, her thoughts were simple. She just wanted to date that man, and perhaps then she would know how it felt to be with Lu Jinnian.
How should she put it... In short, in the end, she was a little moved and a little impulsive. She wanted to discuss marriage with that man, but when she went home and mentioned it to her parents, they firmly opposed it. They even told her something she never knew, that she was going to marry Xu Jiamu.
At that time, she found out that the Qiao family and Xu family had a marriage alliance.
The Xu family had a big business, and Xu Jiamu was an only child. He was truly a rare good husband.
Even though her parents had always treated Qiao Anhao well, when it came to such a good thing, they still thought of their own daughter.
