Chapter 317: Had A Nightmare

Chapter 317: Had A Nightmare

Shen Zhanglin was exasperated. Fortunately, Tangtang did not meet that bastard. They were also lucky that someone exposed that monster’s evil deeds. When he thought about the possibility of his daughter meeting such a brute and falling into his trap, Shen Zhanglin shuddered.

Du Juan’s body shook with anger. “Mrs. Lee, we only agreed to talk to you about Tangtang’s marriage prospects because we trusted you! How can you do this to our family? You almost shoved my precious daughter into the lion’s den. You don’t need to come over again in the future. How can you do such a heartless thing when you also have children and parents?”

If she knew about the boy’s character, she should have told them honestly and should not hide it from them. Du Juan did not believe that as a matchmaker, Mrs. Lee was clueless about this.

“I swear that if I’d known he was that bad, I would’ve told Tangtang. If I’m lying, I’ll get struck by lightning!” Mrs. Lee swore to the heavens.

As soon as she said that, there was a thunderous rumble overhead.

It was the first day of the New Year and not even spring yet, so this thunder was a little bizarre.

Mrs. Lee was so frightened that she fell to the ground and held her shaking head as she cried in fear. “God, I really didn’t know… I really didn’t know, please don’t smite me! I only heard that he’s a playboy and didn’t know how evil he really was!”

Shen Xi stood on the side and looked at Mrs. Lee’s frantic state. She sneered and turned to look at the heavy rain outside. This heavenly thunder came at the right time. Even the heavens could not stand this.

Shen Zhanglin did not want to see her anymore and said, “Get out of my house! We’ll no longer accept any matchmakers!”

They would go to the capital after the New Year and would never agree to any matchmaking services for their daughter in the future. He would rather raise his daughter for life.

Mrs. Lee was scared senseless and dared not stay. She was so afraid of getting struck to death by lightning that she did not even take her umbrella and fled in a haste. When she got to the front door, another thunder frightened her so much that she rolled on the ground, getting mud all over her.

Shen Xi stood at the door of the living room and watched her crawling like a dog away from her sight. She smiled coldly as she thought, ‘People should have a conscience. Some matchmakers only know how to twist the truth for money. Heartless people deserve to be struck by lightning!’

Zhang Zicheng’s future was completely ruined. He never found out who kidnapped him, mutilated him, and exposed him. He could only live in resentment, despair, and pain. That was his retribution.

That night, Shen Feng had a long nightmare.

He dreamed that his Second Uncle went bankrupt and that his second aunt died of a serious illness. Shen Xi passed away at the Su family home and Second Uncle perished in a fire.

Shen Feng also dreamed that his sister married Zhang Zicheng and was used and abused by that jerk. She was tortured and lived a miserable life. In the end, that bastard even pushed her off the balcony. Due to that, his mother fell ill because of Second Uncle and sister’s tragic ends and finally passed away.

In his dream, his father stabbed Zhang Zicheng and was imprisoned for intentional assault. When he was released from prison, he drank pesticide and committed suicide in front of his mother and sister’s graves.

Shen Feng then went to seek revenge on Zhang Zicheng, but he failed. Instead, he was tied up and thrown into the sea. He could feel the fishy seawater rushing into his mouth, nasal cavity, and lungs, feeling suffocated. He could only see a blood red.

Suddenly, there was a flash of light.

Shen Feng jerked up from the bed. The suffocating pain and hatred filled his heart. He held his chest for a moment before his eyes became clear.

‘It’s just a dream… but it didn’t feel like a dream…’

Real pain and despair were etched in his heart, so much so that his heart cramped up and he could not breathe. The deep hatred he felt clung to every part of his body.

He thought of Shen Xi earlier when she glared at Zhang Zicheng. That cold little face held intense hatred and abhorrence as she aimed the knife in her hand at that brute without showing any mercy.

Shen Feng felt his heartbeat to make sure that he was still alive and looked around to find that he was still at home.

Perhaps Shen Xi also had the same nightmare as he did?

The next day, Shen Xi felt that Shen Feng was a bit strange, like a changed person. All of a sudden, he became more sensible and understanding. He no longer messed with her or bullied her. He even compromised with her and gave her food, and even looked at her with such a gentle gaze. It made her feel weird, so she glared at him. “Shen Feng, did you have a concussion?”

In the past, Shen Feng would certainly be annoyed and retorted at her.

However, Shen Feng looked at her with a gentle smile and stroked her hair with his large hand. “No, I’m perfectly fine. When you get back to the capital, look after Sister and don’t let her get abducted by bad guys. After two years, I’ll go to the capital and help you.”

Zhang Zicheng had been eliminated by them, so he was no longer a threat, but Shen Feng was afraid that others would bully and hurt his sister.

If he had this nightmare before they kidnapped Zhang Zicheng, he was sure that he would not be able to control himself and would kill that bastard.

Shen Xi reached out to touch his forehead. “You don’t have a fever…”

“I’ll protect you too.” Shen Feng did not know how much of this nightmare Shen Xi had dreamed of, but he guessed that she probably knew of Tangtang’s fate. Otherwise, she would not have been so harsh on Zhang Zicheng.

However, Shen Feng did not want to share his nightmare with her as he was afraid it would scare her. He would keep it to himself, and from now on, he would work hard to make himself stronger so that he could protect his family.

Shen Xi slapped his hand away in disgust and muttered, “Weirdo…”

Shen Feng smiled without the slightest annoyance. He did not care if she thought that he was a weirdo. As long as his family was well and alive, he could accept everything.

After the first day of the New Year, the following days flew by. In the blink of an eye, it was already the fourth day of the New Year. The next morning, Shen Xi’s family would head back to the capital because Capital No. 4 High School reopens on the eighth day of the New Year.

Shen Feng had a high school reunion in town.

“Please, I beg you… just this once?” Shen Feng looked at Shen Xi sincerely.

“You want me to pretend to be your girlfriend? Does your girlfriend know about it?” Shen Xi threw a sidelong glance at him and had a firm attitude. “No way.”

“Please, I’m begging you…” Shen Feng kneeled to her. “I’ll give you whatever you want! I can add another three years and work for you for free for five years. Deal?”

Shen Xi replied, “You’d better keep your word!”

Shen Feng nodded and pulled her aside, “Of course, I will! Go get dressed! Try to look a little more mature.”

He had a rival in high school. Back then, he was the school bully, and his nemesis was the nerd whose looks and achievements were comparable to him. That boy was from a better family and was successful.

When he was a young and exuberant teenager, he used to have a crush on a popular girl in school. He spent a lot of effort wooing her, but in the end, his crush started dating that nerd.

That girl was quite beautiful and innocent-looking. She was his first love, otherwise, he would not have been in pursuit of her for so long. Even after two years, he still felt bitter about it.
