Chapter 604: A Strange Dream

The dream was very short.

In the dream, she heard a girl crying.

She was crying and crying.

But it was not the kind of wailing that sounded like venting, but a quiet sob that she was trying to hold back.

She seemed to be trying her best to hold back her tears, not wanting to be discovered by the people around her. She hid in a corner, so that Jiang Yu, who stood in the middle of the room, had to turn every which way before locating her.

Jiang Yu walked over and saw a girl sitting on the ground.

The girl seemed to have sensed that someone was coming her way. Her body trembled and she was about to raise her head…

Jiang Yu opened her eyes.

She woke up.

The moment she woke up, she still felt a little lost and didn’t know where she was.

Then, she blinked her eyes, and her head gradually cleared.

She stared up at the ceiling for a while before she sat up in confusion.

She was just a second away from seeing that girl’s face.

But that girl felt familiar.

Who could she be?

Jiang Yu scratched her head, unable to recall.

Why did she start having these strange dreams after coming here?

This was something she had never experienced before.

Jiang Yu looked at her hands thoughtfully.

In the evening.

After they had finished eating, they began watching the national program.

They turned on the Spring Festival Gala.

Actually, not many people watched it seriously. It was just to add to the atmosphere.

Jiang Chenglang was busy on his phone. Messages kept coming in one after another. It was probably greetings from someone in the company or a partner.

Jiang Jingnian was occupied as well.

The people from X Institute knew that he was staying in China for the New Year. It was currently the afternoon where they were, so they were all idling and learning from the Chinese people. They started a video and greeted Jiang Jingnian one by one.

Jiang Zeyu listened to the string of English words coming from Jiang Jingnian’s phone and moved a little further away.

Other than English words like “You, me, him,” and “Happy Chinese New Year,” he didn’t understand any of the other words. It was better not to be too close to Jiang Jingnian, he didn’t want to be caught and made to look illiterate.

As Jiang Yu listened to the video, someone asked, “Alex, where are you right now. That place you’re at is beautifully decorated. Alex, you sure know how to enjoy life. Which resort did you run to stay in?”

Jiang Jingnian replied, “I’m at home.”

The person said, “Alright, I get it. The hotel is your home.”

Jiang Jingnian repeated, “I said, I’m at home.”

The man said, “Alex? Are you kidding me? Did you buy a house in China? Are you really going to stay there indefinitely?”

Another man said, “Ari, what kind of stupid question is that? Have you forgotten that Alex was originally from China? Isn’t it normal for him to have a home in China?”

That person mumbled, “But I’ve never heard Alex mention it before…”

Following that, a smack was heard from the video.

It wasn’t hard to imagine that someone on the other end had been treated violently.

The male voice said, “Why do you care so much? After you’ve said your blessings, quickly go back to work!”

He then turned to Jiang Jingnian and said, “Have a good new year. How do you say it in Chinese? Happy reunion, happy new year?”

The last few words he said were in broken Chinese.

Jiang Jingnian replied lazily, “Thank you, David. I’ll have to continue troubling you.”

David could hear the hidden meaning in his words and a series of ellipses sounded from the video.

Was he really planning to stay in China forever and not come back?

David threatened, “Be careful that I suddenly run over to look for you one day.”

Jiang Jingnian said nonchalantly, “Come, come. I’ll be happy to receive you. I’ll treat you to some Chinese food.”

David swallowed his saliva. “Remember your words. There’s a competition in China in a few months. I might really go.”

Jiang Jingnian didn’t take it seriously and answered vaguely.

Except for Jiang Zeyu, everyone else could understand Jiang Jingnian’s conversation with those people.

Jiang Chenglang lowered his head and looked at his phone. He didn’t make a sound, but his eyes were gentle.

He sent Rong Qi one “yes” word in a place that no one else could see.

Rong Qi looked at the text message on his phone and felt confused.

What was the meaning of the president’s “yes?”

Was he satisfied with the esports proposal he just sent? Why was there no follow-up? Had he made a mistake?

On the other hand, Jiang Xingyi seemed to be watching the TV attentively, but his ears pricked up as he listened.

For the sake of quietness, he set his phone to silent mode. In any case, the people in the industry were either active on the stage or were taking time off. They finally had a day of quietness and respected each other by not disturbing one another.

After Jiang Jingnian hung up the video call, Jiang Xingyi still pretended to not be listening and commented, “This song isn’t bad.”

Jiang Zeyu and Feng Tianrui had just swapped codes and were ready to team up and play a few games. When he heard this, a question mark slowly appeared above his head.

If he remembered correctly, wasn’t it just a magic trick just now?

There was only background music, so how could anyone be singing?

Finally, Jiang Yu managed to hold on until midnight because she had enough sleep during the day.

When everyone started counting down on the Spring Festival Gala, the few people at home stopped what they were doing.

The midnight bell finally rang.

It was different from the previous New Year’s Eve. This time, all the older brothers were present.

And they weren’t in another city.

And they were at home.

This time, it was a real reunion.

Jiang Chenglang was the first to speak. “Happy New Year, Yu Yu.”

Jiang Xingyi said, “I wish you good health and all the best, Little Sister!”

Jiang Zeyu said, “I wish that Little Sister and I will never be separated!”

Jiang Jingnian glared at him. “Kids just don’t know how to talk and only care about themselves.”

Jiang Yu raised her cup.

She curved her lips and said, “Let’s cheers. We’ll agree to spend every New Year together.”

The moment she said that she seemed to hear a voice from the depths of her heart.

The voice sighed softly and said, “Yes.”

Jiang Yu was startled and the glass in her hand trembled.

The others had not noticed. They raised their glasses and clinked with Jiang Yu.

They were drinking alcohol, but they would never let Jiang Yu touch it.

Jiang Chenglang: As long as I’m here, I’ll never let Jiang Yu drink alcohol. Don’t even think about it.

He couldn’t possibly summon that male vixen on this day, could he?

However, Jiang Chenglang never expected that after the celebration, they would all return to their own rooms. Jiang Yu stayed in her room for a while, before quietly leaving her room and going downstairs without alerting anyone.

When she reached the backyard, there was already someone there waiting for her.

It was snowing today. Although it wasn’t heavy, the ground was still covered with a layer of snow.

The person was standing under a tree. He looked so handsome, just like a painting..
