My Youth Began With Him

"What should we do? I don't know either! Anyway… I'll find my sister… no matter what."

"Didn't you say that Qin Chu's here too? When are we meeting him?" Qiao Fei asked.

"I don't know yet. I've sent him all the relevant information. With his personality, he should contact me as soon as he lands in Sydney."

Lu Yan looked at her watch again…

"He should be here already… unless…"

Lu Yan's voice trailed off.

"We can't wait any longer. I'm running out of patience anyways. I need to go to Smith's place again… I think that the old pervert's still hiding something from us."

"I'll go with you." Qiao Fei got up.

"Aren't you traumatized?" Lu Yan teased, laughing.

"He's the one that's traumatized," Qiao Fei retorted.

"Huh? Where's Amy?" Lu Yan looked around and realized that her female subordinate was nowhere to be found.

"I dismissed her," Qiao Fei said.

"Why did you chase her away? I left her here to protect you, idiot…" Lu Yan said.

"I don't need baggage, thank you very much." With that, Qiao Fei left the room first.

His characteristic coldness left Lu Yan shaking her head…

Just like that, before Qin Chu contacted her, the impatient Lu Yan left for Shmidt's place with Qiao Fei.

She was going to use force to get the information of the island out of the old man's mouth.

- The South Hill Manor -

There was a two-hour difference between China and Australia.

It was 4 AM in the morning in Australia, so it was 2 AM in the morning in China.

Inside one of the upper-leveled rooms of the South Hill Manor, Pudding was in the middle of a bad dream.

In her dream, she and her little sister were celebrating their birthdays when their mommy suddenly returned.

Their Mommy was covered in blood… and before she could speak, her Mommy fell on the ground, her blood everywhere.

She began to scream her mommy's name… over and over again… but her mommy simply wouldn't wake up.

Pudding immediately sat up, her forehead drenched in sweat.

She gasped for breath, almost wheezing for air…

"Mommy… no…" Little Bean, who was next to Pudding, also woke up from a dream.

Pudding instinctively held her little sister tightly.

"Little Bean, wake up."

"Sis, I'm so scared… I'm so scared…" Little Bean tried not to cry.

"What's wrong? Did you have a bad dream again?" Pudding asked quietly.

"Yeah, I dreamt that Mommy fell off the cliff and was washed away by the sea…wah… I miss Mommy." Little Bean began to cry.

The funny thing was that Pudding also had a bad dream… this twin thing really did exist.

"Don't cry, silly, listen to me. Dreams always happen opposite to real life. Your dream means that Mommy's coming home soon."

"Really? Don't lie to me…" Little Bean stopped crying, clinging onto Pudding even tighter.

"Yes, I'm not lying. Really."

"I really want Mommy back soon. I really, really miss her. Sis… when mommy comes back, let's be good and stop causing her trouble, okay?"

"Okay, we'll listen to her and not make her mad anymore." Pudding nodded with difficulty.

- Tasmania -

Huo Mian staggered all the way down to the bottom of an abandoned bridge.

She realized that walking on the surface was too noticeable. The roads were empty and if she kept walking, they'd grab her right away.

After she reached the bottom of the bridge, a shadow lunged at her, grabbing her tightly.

Just as she was about to scream, a whiff of the familiar scent from the shadow's neck stopped her in her tracks. Her heart almost stopped.
