She Comes Into My Dreams Every Night - Chapter 69

Chapter 69: Did Your Family Open a QQYY Business?

The final key was struck, the melody still seemed to vibrate, and the entire hall was silent.

Applause suddenly erupted, quickly spreading to every corner of the magnificent hall.

The person on stage stood up and bowed gracefully, looking almost completely different from her usual self.

Su Huaiwang was also in the audience, smiling and applauding for her.

Tu Zhizhuo quietly raised her head slightly, located her friend in the crowd, and winked at her.

After the performance, Su Huaiwang found Tu Zhizhuo immediately and presented her with a bouquet of flowers.

Tu Zhizhuo hadn’t changed out of her gown yet. A performance given with her whole heart didn’t leave her looking tired; instead, she looked more vibrant in her eyes and eyebrows.

She leaned in to smell the flowers and exclaimed: “Only my dearest Wangwang understands me! Sending exactly what I love!”

“As long as you like it.” Su Huaiwang smiled gently.

Lin Jue was beside her, her smile a little fainter than Su Huaiwang’s, but it was clear she was offering congratulations: “Congratulations.”

“Psh,” Tu Zhizhuo waved her hand, tossing her long hair: “Why all the formalities? It’s nothing unusual. Your Sister Tu’s home is practically running out of space for these trophies!”

Su Huaiwang noticed the envious or jealous glances shooting over from the side. She nervously moved closer to her: “Please stop talking nonsense. Pay attention to the feelings of the people around you.”

Tu Zhizhuo raised an eyebrow: “Why do you care? What can they do to me?”

Unexpectedly, Lin Jue also chimed in agreement: “She’s right.”

Her amber eyes were covered with a layer of coldness. Meeting those malicious stares, she forced them to back off.

Su Huaiwang gently patted the back of Lin Jue’s hand, her eyes conveying a slight reproach.

Lin Jue knew that meant ‘don’t cause trouble.’ She lowered her gaze, looking a little wronged.

Tu Zhizhuo, however, couldn’t stand it and immediately spoke up: “Oh, oh, oh, what’s this in public? This is a public place. Please don’t bring your bedroom games here, okay?”

“What bedroom games…!” Su Huaiwang’s eyes widened, and her pale, tender face instantly turned bright red.

Lin Jue looked up, not understanding what she meant, her eyes filled with confusion.

Su Huaiwang twitched her lips, forcing a smile: “You shut your mouth. Today is a good day. I don’t want to curse you.”

“Eww, so fierce,” Tu Zhizhuo feigned shrinking her neck, then turned to tease Lin Jue: “Is she like this when she’s with you too? You’re so tender-skinned. Can you handle it when she plays alphabet games with you?”

This time, Lin Jue understood: “Why should I be the one to handle it?”

Tu Zhizhuo’s mouth widened slightly: “I can’t believe it… you’re full of surprises…”

It was unclear whether she was talking about Lin Jue or Su Huaiwang.

Su Huaiwang couldn’t take it anymore. She grabbed Tu Zhizhuo’s wrist and threatened: “If you keep this up, I’m leaving.”

Tu Zhizhuo quickly gave a placating smile: “Baby, I didn’t mean it. Don’t go. Did you forget? I’m taking you out to dinner next.”

Hearing “dinner,” Su Huaiwang’s frown eased a little.

Tu Zhizhuo pressed her advantage: “Your favorite restaurant! I’ve already made reservations. What do you say, let’s go?”

With this barrage of words, Su Huaiwang’s anger completely subsided. She turned to look at Lin Jue.

Lin Jue nodded: “I’ll go back to the hotel first.”

Su Huaiwang had told her before coming that tonight was time for just her and Tu Zhizhuo.

Lin Jue had tried her best to persuade her but failed, so now she could only accept the reality gracefully.

Su Huaiwang smiled, wanting to reach out and pat her on the head, but because they were in a public place, she held back. She just lowered her voice and whispered in her ear:

“So obedient.”

The girl’s jade-like earlobe was tinged with a faint red by her words. Lin Jue showed a shy smile, different from before: “Mhm, I’ll wait for you to come back.”

Su Huaiwang still couldn’t resist and reached up to gently touch her head.

Tu Zhizhuo leaned close to her, whispering: “Wow, you’re a real dog trainer.”

Su Huaiwang glared at her: “Watch your language. Please treat people as people.”

The woman ‘tched tched tched’ with an ambiguous expression.

Su Huaiwang had never been able to stand that attitude of hers since childhood. Just as she was about to lecture her, she was interrupted by a voice.

“Miss Tu, congratulations on winning first place.”

The voice was familiar. The two people besides Lin Jue subconsciously turned their heads.

As expected, it was Lei Yinyin.

“Why are you here again?” Tu Zhizhuo was blunt and didn’t hold back.

Lei Yinyin awkwardly touched her nose: “Coincidence, it really is a coincidence… Don’t let my appearance fool you; I actually quite like classical music…”

She had even begged her mother to send her to piano lessons when she was in third grade, and even now, she still played a bit in between her martial arts training.

Tu Zhizhuo realized something was wrong after she spoke and quickly explained to the silent Su Huaiwang beside her.

“This person… claims to be my fan. She came looking for me during the preliminary rounds too!”

Su Huaiwang gave the scratching-and-puzzled Tu Zhizhuo a strange look and instantly understood.

Lei Yinyin had contacted her privately to ask about her situation.

Plus, a segment of Tu Zhizhuo’s memory was missing. In her eyes, the current Lei Yinyin was just someone who popped up suddenly every time, saying inexplicable things that never came true.

She and Lei Yinyin weren’t close, but there was a hidden connection, and Lei Yinyin was also connected to the time Su Huaiwang lost her memory… As Su Huaiwang sorted it out, she felt the logic was getting a bit messy.

Looking at Tu Zhizhuo again, her eyes were practically spinning like a mosquito coil.

Su Huaiwang couldn’t help but laugh: “I know. She told me.”

“Ah? Oh…” Tu Zhizhuo was still a bit muddled.

Su Huaiwang then turned to Lei Yinyin: “Is there something you need?”

Not long after Lin Jue was honest with her, Lei Yinyin moved out of that villa area. Counting the time, Su Huaiwang hadn’t seen her for almost two months.

For her to appear suddenly now, only someone like Tu Zhizhuo would believe her excuse.

“It’s nothing major,” Lei Yinyin paused: “I’m here for Lin Jue.”

Everyone’s attention turned to Lin Jue.

The person concerned, however, was incredibly bored, fiddling with the scorch marks on her clothes.

As everyone looked over, she calmly eliminated the scorch marks without batting an eyelid.

“For me?”

The girl’s voice flowed out like a mountain stream, cool and detached.

“Yes,” Lei Yinyin nodded: “The Director wants to see you.”

Lin Jue looked at her, then at Su Huaiwang.

Su Huaiwang frowned and spoke: “Is it something very important?”

Lei Yinyin forced a smile: “If it were, I wouldn’t be looking for her in a public place like this.”

“Then can I ask what it’s about?”

Lei Yinyin answered without hesitation or concealment: “Heavenly Dao Vows.”

Su Huaiwang wasn’t familiar with the term, so she looked at Lin Jue again.

Lin Jue showed no reaction, only pointing at Lei Yinyin: “Then I’ll go with her first.”

Su Huaiwang felt uneasy: “Will everything be alright?”

“Yes.” Lin Jue looked at her, her gaze locking onto Su Huaiwang’s moistened, red lips.

She quickly lowered her head, shifting her gaze elsewhere: “No need to worry.”

Since she said so, Su Huaiwang could only nod: “Come back early?”

Lin Jue smiled, her eyes crinkling: “I will. I won’t let you sleep alone.”

Su Huaiwang’s face was a little red.

After sleeping with Lin Jue for so many days, she was indeed… a bit unable to adapt to sleeping alone now.

Tu Zhizhuo stood behind Su Huaiwang, watching the couple be affectionate, her eyes looking dead.

Over the heads of the two, she saw the equally dead-eyed Lei Yinyin.

Their eyes briefly met, and both tacitly looked away.

The final result was that Lei Yinyin left with Lin Jue, and Tu Zhizhuo left with Su Huaiwang.

All the way to the restaurant, Tu Zhizhuo was still complaining: “I’m so sick of you people in love. You know she’s a civil servant, right? Did your little sweetheart commit some crime? You have to be so reluctant to let her be taken away for questioning? What is this, the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl act? It’s December already! There are no magpies, okay? No magpies!”

Ignoring her barrage of words, Su Huaiwang took a sip of the red wine in her glass.

If Lin Jue really hadn’t done anything wrong, she wouldn’t be worried. The problem was…

She certainly couldn’t tell Tu Zhizhuo any of this, so she could only put down her wine glass and sigh mournfully.

Tu Zhizhuo immediately knitted her eyebrows: “Why are you sighing? Are you unhappy in love? Is she not treating you well? That can’t be right. I saw her eyes were completely focused on you, though?”

As far as she could tell, that beautiful dress Lin Jue was wearing today was probably completely styled by Su Huaiwang.

Having been friends for so many years, she knew exactly what style Su Huaiwang liked.

Heh, the repressed one.

She probably even picked out the underwear for her little girlfriend behind the scenes.

Su Huaiwang lowered her eyes sadly, her knuckles supporting the side of her face: “Actually, I’ve been thinking, maybe what I need more than a lover is a daughter…”

The piece of meat in Tu Zhizhuo’s mouth almost sprayed out.

“Pfft! What are you talking about!”

Su Huaiwang quickly made a shushing gesture: “Everyone’s looking.”

Tu Zhizhuo wiped her mouth, lowered her voice, her eyes practically rolling to the heavens: “Are you insane, saying something like that?”

“It’s true. I feel like whenever I’m around her recently, a sense of maternal love is gradually rising in my heart, overshadowing other emotions,” Su Huaiwang said with deep distress.

This was especially true when Lin Jue didn’t understand something.

The moment she thought of the young, naive ghost in front of her, she suddenly felt a surge of maternal love, the exact same feeling she had when she was holding the tiny, two-month-old Little Yellow.

Tu Zhizhuo scrutinized her for a moment, then concluded: “You’re not getting enough sex, are you?”

“?”

“Would you sleep with your daughter?”

“?”

“So you like that kind of play? I thought you were just adventurous, I didn’t realize you were morally depra—”

Su Huaiwang clamped her hand over Tu Zhizhuo’s mouth: “Enough! Stop talking!”

If she listened any longer, she wouldn’t be able to control the urge to punch Tu Zhizhuo.

Tu Zhizhuo’s mouth was covered, but she was still passionately directing the country’s affairs: “Mmm mmm—mmm mmm mmm mmm mmm!”

A chime sounded from her phone. Su Huaiwang used her free hand to check it.

She saw a link, two links, three links… flashing in Tu Zhizhuo’s contact interface.

Looking up again, the vibrant woman’s upper face was seriously furrowed, and she gave Su Huaiwang a thumbs-up.
