Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Late at night.

Los Angeles was a city of angels in the day and a city of sin at night. The central urban area was especially chaotic. Ye Chu slept until she was in a daze when she heard the sound of two gunshots. She was so frightened that she quivered. She was not considered to be sensitive to the sound of gunshots, but because she had a nightmare, her nerves and muscles were so tense that she nearly shouted. She had a dream again. She dreamed of Ye Tingyun, the younger Ye Tingyun.

Whose dream was that exactly?

Why did she dream of Ye Tingyun and little round-faced girl?

At that time, Ye Tingyun wore a simple white shirt and jeans with white sport shoes. He carried a black backpack and held a DSLR camera. He was taking photographs. He accidentally walked into the little castle. The little round-faced girl accidentally threw half a pear at his feet. He was holding his camera and captured the moment she turned her head. He lowered his head and glanced at the camera. He smiled as he looked at the little round-faced girl.

“I took a photograph of you. Do you want it?” He asked.

The little round-faced girl was not shy with strangers. She ran over happily. The little egg-shaped face girl did not pull her. They were still being made to stand as punishment. The little round-faced girl ran over and stretched her neck out to look at the photograph. Ye Tingyun slightly bent his back and showed her the photograph that he had conveniently taken.

At that moment when the little girl looked back, her expression was exceptionally vivid, bright, and clear. The background had been blurred. Only she was standing gracefully. She was like a little elf in a garden.

“I am really pretty.” The little round-faced girl shook her little braids vainly. She admired herself happily. She was like a little peacock spreading its tail. Ye Tingyun could not help laughing.

He was a youth who had lost his way. He did not stay long in the little castle. After meeting her once, he said his farewell politely and left hurriedly. When he met her again, he was still dressed in a white shirt, jeans, and carrying his backpack. He had an upright style. The little round-faced girl came out alone to play. She was very happy when she saw him. She pounced over and looked for him to play. Ye Tingyun was in need of materials for his photography, and he had a deep impression of her. He had an unknown good feeling and treated her as a model.

After going back and forth, they gradually became familiar with each other. The little round-faced girl was mostly bizarre and was very liberated. Occasionally, she was also like a young and cultured lady. She had good etiquette and upbringing. As long as her hair was smoothed, she could show off her ladylike style 360-degrees.

These warm images appeared in her dream scene by scene. However, the ending of the dream became a nightmare. She was running towards Ye Tingyun happily, but she was stopped midway by a tall and big-sized man who was dressed in black. The handkerchief that was stained with drugs covered her nose and mouth.

The sweet dream hurriedly turned into a nightmare.

“Ah Chu, what happened to you?” Bruce looked at her worriedly and supported her shoulders. Ye Chu shook her head. Her whole body was covered in cold sweat. She suddenly pushed Bruce away. “Do you still have a picture of me when I was eight years old?”

She said one sentence without any head or tail. Bruce was bewildered. He took out his own wallet. There was a valuable photograph inside that was from a long time ago. Ye Chu, Bruce, and her adoptive father were in the photograph.

She stood in the middle. Her smile was lively. Her hair was all tied up into a ponytail. Ye Chu rubbed the photograph. Right, this was her. She was not that little girl.

But why did she keep dreaming of her?

Ye Chu could not understand. Her whole body was ice cold. Bruce felt heartache and hugged her. “Don’t be afraid, I am here. I’ll go and pour you a cup of water.”

Bruce went to pour water for Ye Chu. There were sounds of gunshots again not far away. Bruce frowned. It was too dangerous here at night. When he carried the cup of water and went back, he was shocked and broke out in a cold sweat.

Ye Chu was missing.

The door was opened.
