Chapter 67: Chapter 67: Entering the Dream

An Yan took the notes. If the paper she plagiarized from them was published, An Yan would definitely use the plagiarism against them.

By then, all seven members of the thesis group would be kicked out of the top class!

If it were just a simple loss, maybe the others wouldn’t hate her, but if it was plagiarism...

The paper couldn’t be published!

Their thesis group couldn’t be expelled either. The only way out was for An Yan to be the one to suffer.

"Hmm!"

Bai Zhi drove with satisfaction to a high-end residential complex.

She tossed An Shimeng a set of keys and a card.

"Room 1403. There’s 20,000 in this card; it’s your allowance for this month."

"From now on, I’ll transfer 10,000 to it every month. An Shimeng, if you perform well, I’ll get you a better house and increase your allowance too. Do well."

After carrying her luggage upstairs, An Shimeng realized the apartment Bai Zhi had arranged for her was a mere one-bedroom, one-living room space, not even covering 80 square meters in total.

It’s all that bitch An Yan’s fault!

But it doesn’t matter. With Bai Zhi’s support, I can still find a way to get back on my feet.

An Shimeng immediately began plotting how to destroy An Yan.

***

At two o’clock in the morning, An Yan was awakened by her alarm clock. She grabbed her things and cautiously slipped into Li Tianyao’s room.

Li Tianyao lay flat on the large, black bed.

His handsome features appeared even more defined and striking in the dim glow of the night lamp. His long eyes were closed, and his thick lashes lent his features a touch of softness.

He was the most handsome man An Yan had ever seen.

Too bad he’s sick!

An Yan stared for a moment, repeating in her mind several times: He’s a patient.

Only then did she sit down on the edge of the bed.

Placing one hand on his pulse, she took out her phone with the other, played some soothing music, and began to murmur softly,

"Li Tianyao, relax, relax even more. Imagine you’ve returned to your childhood. Don’t be afraid, don’t resist! Li Tianyao, go back to your childhood!"

"What do you see?"

"Do you see dogs? Next, you’ll be pushed toward them. But don’t be scared, because those dogs are just your sparring partners! Relax! They’re just sparring partners; they can’t hurt you..."

Li Tianyao’s eyelashes trembled slightly, his eyes opening a tiny slit.

An Yan, completely unaware, was still immersed in her imagined version of Li Tianyao’s childhood:

"A dog is lunging at you! Retreat, crouch, kick! Yes, use your strongest leg to kick it away! Wonderful, Li Tianyao, you’re amazing, you’re doing great..."

The corner of Li Tianyao’s mouth twitched slightly. What is she doing?

The light from her phone cast an eerie glow on her pale face.

Yet he didn’t find it unsightly. On the contrary, he found her astonishingly beautiful like this.

Her voice was so soft, as gentle as if laced with honey!

So sweet it made his heart ache with a strange numbness.

Li Tianyao closed his eyes again, greedily listening to her voice.

The constant repetition inexplicably relaxed An Yan’s nerves, and her eyelids grew heavy, drooping uncontrollably...

In the blink of an eye, she found herself before a cliff.

The night wind was piercing, and the full moon hung ghastly pale in the sky. From below the cliff, the sound of dogs barking arose.

Then, she saw countless dogs charge out, each one ravenously eyeing the dozens of little boys who had been thrown down. They looked to be between three and seven years old, with small arms and legs. The clothes they wore seemed to be ancient attire. An Yan couldn’t make out precisely which dynasty they were from.

At the sight of the vicious dogs, a few children fainted from terror. The slightly older children, however, kept backing away, pushing the younger ones forward as they retreated. The smallest boy among them was pushed to the very front.

The child was exceptionally beautiful, his features delicate...

Li Tianyao?

Startled, An Yan quickly scanned her surroundings and then, without hesitation, jumped down. She landed in front of Little Li Tianyao.

However, even though she was clearly standing before him, the dogs still lunged desperately at Little Tianyao. Only then did An Yan realize she had entered merely as a wisp of consciousness; she couldn’t help him at all.

The Little Douding, only a few years old, erupted with tremendous energy at that moment. Taking advantage of his small size, he dropped to the ground just as the dogs lunged. The boy behind him, who had been grabbing him, was instantly bitten on the neck by a dog.

Little Tianyao seized the chance to break free and sprinted away. Behind him, children were continually mauled by the dogs. Little Tianyao didn’t dare to let his attention waver; he ran for his life.

At first, he could only run, desperately trying to dodge and hide as he fled. Gradually, he began to pick up rocks to throw. Later, while still running, he began pulling up clumps of wild grass, gathering them in one spot. He then lit a fire, finally managing to hold the dogs back.

But he didn’t dare relax. He scrambled up the rock face and hid in a cave, quickly sharpening branches to make himself a weapon. When the fire died down, the pack of dogs surged forward again. He defended the cave entrance, stabbing outward with his sharpened sticks.

After an unknown amount of time, the dogs finally lost their will to fight. And he was covered in wounds from head to toe! There were dog bites, gashes from falls, and scrapes from stones and branches.

「The scene abruptly changed.」

Little Tianyao was seized by a hand and plunged into icy water. An Yan rushed over, wanting to pull him from the water, but no matter how fast she ran, she couldn’t reach the lake.

She could only watch helplessly as Little Tianyao, nearly frozen to death, was grabbed by that massive hand and thrown into a stone house heated by a Fire Dragon. His body, almost frozen solid, was suddenly exposed to extreme heat, causing his skin, flesh, and blood vessels to rapidly expand.

AAAH—

Little Tianyao writhed on the floor in pain.

"Li Tianyao!" An Yan cried.

An Yan ran desperately, trying to tear down the house. But just like with the lake, no matter how much strength she exerted, she couldn’t touch the house.

"Li Tianyao, don’t be afraid! Hold on! I’m telling you, you can get through this! You’ll become an incredibly powerful person in the future! None of this torture can break you!"

But Little Tianyao couldn’t hear her voice at all.

Little Tianyao, a bloody mess, was once again seized by the massive hand and thrown into a room filled with wooden training dummies. The mechanisms whirred to life. His small body was battered and crushed by the rotating dummies until he soon collapsed, his state of life or death unknown.

This time, An Yan crouched beside Little Tianyao, waiting for that massive hand to appear!

If I can’t help Li Tianyao, she thought, then at least I can find out which monster would inflict such cruelty on a small child.

Finally, the hand appeared again. An Yan saw an enormous, indistinct face...

The entity seemed to notice her too. It let out a surprised "Hmm?" and extended a finger to pick her up.

"There’s actually an insect!"

The massive hand flicked her lightly. An Yan felt as if something had viciously pierced her brain. Her body shot backward, and the searing pain made her scream:

"AAAH—"

An Yan woke up from the dreamscape. As soon as she opened her eyes, she saw Li Tianyao.

He was still lying on the bed, his handsome face taut, his brow deeply furrowed, clearly still lost in immense pain.
