Reborn in the 80s: She Rewrites Life with Radiance
Chapter 127: A Terrifying Dream

Chapter 127: Chapter 127: A Terrifying Dream

When Ye Qian got home, everyone had already gone back to their rooms.

She noticed that the lights were on in both her parents’ and her elder brother and sister-in-law’s rooms.

Suddenly, she felt incredibly lonely.

She really wished she could talk to her sister-in-law like she used to whenever something was bothering her.

But she knew she had upset her sister-in-law.

She felt extremely irritable and didn’t know what to do, impulsively wanting to find her sister-in-law.

But in the end, Ye Qian restrained herself.

She washed up and returned to her own room.

In the middle of the night, Ye Qian suddenly woke up from a dream.

After waking up, she could still clearly remember everything that happened in the dream.

"It’s okay, it’s okay, people always say reality and dreams are opposite, it’s okay."

She patted her chest, comforting herself.

However, after lying back down, she couldn’t go back to sleep.

Whenever she closed her eyes, the image of her lying in a pool of blood haunted her mind.

Ye Qian tossed and turned all night.

The next morning, her dark circles were even worse than the day before.

"Qianqian, what happened to you? Are you feeling unwell?"

Ye’s mother was startled when she saw Ye Qian come out while making breakfast in the morning.

She hadn’t seen Ye Qian last night, and she looked so exhausted.

"Mom, I’m fine, just didn’t sleep well last night."

Ye Qian hadn’t slept at all, and just now her mom’s voice next to her made her head hurt terribly.

"Qianqian, is it because of Wu Liang?"

Seeing Ye Qian like this, Ye’s mother felt especially worried.

She intended to have a good talk with Ye Qian today.

Initially, she and Ye Fu both thought well of Wu Liang and had conveyed this to Ye Qian.

Seeing Ye Qian’s behavior these past two days, it seemed she had taken their words to heart.

Ye Hao and Gu Yi opposed her relationship with Wu Liang.

Ye’s mother had always known Gu Yi’s importance in Ye Qian’s heart.

Ye Qian had always relied on Gu Yi like an elder sister.

Finding a partner with Gu Yi’s blessing would be ideal.

"Mom, did you know my sister-in-law doesn’t fully approve of my relationship with Wu Liang?"

Seeing her mom had brought this up, Ye Qian also wanted to talk with her mom.

She felt like she was about to burst these past couple of days.

"Qianqian, I think we were too hasty when your dad and I talked to you about this. That’s our mistake. You know, we’ve always wanted you to find someone worth entrusting your life to as soon as possible, so when Wu Liang appeared, your dad and I were overjoyed."

Ye’s mother tidied the hair around Ye Qian’s ear.

"So what are your thoughts now? Just because my brother and sister-in-law don’t approve, am I supposed to immediately withdraw my feelings?"

Ye Qian spoke with a hint of hysteria.

"Qianqian, it’s not that we disapprove now, we just want to observe a little longer, alright? I think your brother has a point. We haven’t known Wu Liang for that long, so it’s normal to get to know him better, don’t you think?"

Ye’s mother softly reassured Ye Qian, deeply regretting not waiting until Ye Hao and Gu returned to discuss their thoughts with Ye Qian.

"I’m going to the store."

Ye Qian abruptly said and headed for the door.

"Have something to eat before you go."

Ye’s mother took a few steps forward, calling after Ye Qian’s retreating back.

But Ye Qian didn’t respond and just walked out.

"This girl, why is she so stubborn?"

Ye’s mother was both angry and heartbroken.

When Ye Qian arrived at the store, Wu Liang hadn’t gotten up yet.

Ye Qian found it peculiar; usually, Wu Liang would already be cleaning when she got there.

It had never been like today.

Could he be sick?

She hurriedly went over to knock on the door.

"Wu Liang, Wu Liang, are you okay?"

Ye Qian anxiously called from outside.

Wu Liang, sleeping soundly, was immediately irritated upon hearing someone calling him.

He climbed out of bed angrily to open the door.

"Who is it, yelling so early in the morning?"

Seeing Ye Qian’s terrified expression, he instantly sobered up.

"Qianqian, sorry, I stayed up late last night."

Wu Liang quickly explained.

"Oh, I thought you were sick. As long as you’re okay."

Ye Qian said without looking at Wu Liang, heading straight into the store.

She had genuinely felt like she was back in last night’s dream just then.

In the dream, Wu Liang’s face was fierce, then changed to an innocent look.

Seeing Ye Qian’s reaction, Wu Liang guessed he had scared her.

Wu Liang also felt regretful, having always tried to present his best in front of Ye Qian and her parents.

But Ye Hao and Gu Yiyi returning disrupted his plans.

Wu Liang followed Ye Qian inside.

Ye Qian picked up a cloth and began wiping the counter.

"Qianqian, leave that. I’ll freshen up quickly and then I’ll do it, alright?"

Wu Liang said as he walked toward the bathroom.

Ye Qian still ignored him, continuing her task.

Wu Liang quickly got himself ready.

"Let me, let me."

Wu Liang stepped forward and took the cloth from Ye Qian.

"Fine, you wipe, I’ll go make the cake."

Ye Qian said expressionlessly.

Seeing Ye Qian’s cold attitude towards him, Wu Liang wished he could throw the towel at her back.

His family had always been poor. Growing up, hardly anyone thought highly of him, so he had strived to change himself.

But for some reason, his luck was particularly bad, nothing worked out for him.

It had really been a coincidence when he met Ye Qian.

Initially, he didn’t think much about Ye Qian, just wanted to earn some money to have a decent New Year’s back home.

But Ye Fu and Ye’s mother constantly created opportunities for them.

Ye Qian seemed to have some interest in him, too.

Wu Liang thought being with Ye Qian wouldn’t be bad; after all, his family was poor, and most girls wouldn’t want to marry him.

So he always tried to show his best side in front of the Ye Family.

But Ye Qian’s recent attitude made him feel utterly humiliated.

"I will marry you and make you serve me humbly for the rest of your life."

Wu Liang said viciously.

Turning around, he returned to his previously harmless demeanor.

Ye Qian didn’t know if it was because of last night’s dream or if Wu Liang had frightened her that morning.

She spent the entire day avoiding Wu Liang, inexplicably finding him terrifying.

Wu Liang didn’t know Ye Qian had a nightmare; he thought he scared her earlier.

He kept looking for a chance to explain to Ye Qian.

Last night, because of Gu Yi and Ye Hao, he felt uncomfortable.

Until very late, whenever he closed his eyes, all he saw was Gu Yi’s hateful gaze.

He didn’t understand why they had such hostility towards him.

He didn’t fall deeply asleep until it was almost daylight outside, so when Ye Qian arrived in the morning.

He was still sound asleep, which is why he lost his temper.

During the day, whether it was Ye Fu and Ye’s mother or Gu Yi and Ye Hao at the store.

He and Ye Qian never had a chance to be alone together.

"Wu Liang, it’s the 29th today, here’s your pay for this period. You can leave early this afternoon, and Happy New Year."

Around three in the afternoon, Ye Fu handed an envelope to Wu Liang.

"Thank you, uncle, Happy New Year to you too."

Wu Liang took the envelope. When nobody was looking, he pinched it discreetly; it was thicker than he expected. He smiled broadly at Ye Fu.

Seeing that smile, Ye Fu felt he might have truly misjudged the person and nodded, saying no more.
