Chapter 50: Don't Be Scared

Perhaps, she was affected by the story that Long Fei had told them. For the next few nights, Su Ruan had the same dreams over and over again.

In these dreams, she would see the same boy that he had dreamed about for the past few years.

This time, the boy in her dream was no longer as hazy as it used to be.

Although she still could not see his face, Su Ruan could see the horns on both sides of his head. The horns that she had thought belonged to a reindeer were not what she had thought. Now that she could get a closer look, Su Ruan realized that they were dragon's horns.

The boy's body slowly turned bigger. His hands turned into claws and his body stretched up long like a snake.

In this dream, Su Ruan saw herself getting scared. She wanted to scream but each time she opened her mouth, her voice would not come out.

The scales on the boy's body were blueish purple. Under the moonlight, his scale looked as if they were sparkling.

Su Ruan soon realized that the creature in front of her was the same dragon she had seen under the water a few days ago.

The dragon was big and he was towering over her. It was too scary.

Her legs shook. Su Ruan found that she could not run away.

The dragon approached her slowly. He stretched his claws grabbed her easily. He lifted her up high until their gazes met.

Surprisingly, his eyes were not as scary as his looks. Su Ruan found that the longer she looked into that eyes, the more she felt at ease. She actually felt safer with him.

"Su Ruan, don't be scared."

Even though the dragon did not speak, Su Ruan could hear his voice in her head. His voice was soft as if he was trying to coax her.

Her eyes widened. "How do you know my name?"

"I will not hurt you."

She did not know why but when she heard his words, Su Ruan felt as if she could believe his words. There was a feeling deep inside that told her that as long as she stayed close to this dragon, he will protect her from any harm.

It made her feel comfortable.

"Who are you? Do I know you?"

The dragon did not move but Su Ruan could feel as if he was smiling at her.

It did not make any sense. Can a dragon smile?

Just as she had asked those questions, Su Ruan would wake up from her dream. Unlike the last time she had dreamed about this dragon, Su Ruan found that she was no longer panting and sweating as much.

Each time that she woke up from this dream, Su Ruan would sit on her bed for a long time. She tried to recall every detail that she had seen in that dream but could not find any clues.

Who was that boy and how did he turn into a dragon?

Why would she have this dream repeatedly?

Does a dragon really exist?

Su Ruan had too many questions but she could not find the answer to any of them.

Taking a deep breath, Su Ruan climbed out of her bed and walked over to the window. The air was cold but she decided to stay there and let the air cool her mind.

The night view of this town was as beautiful as the day view.

She could see the moon shining brightly in the sky and the stars were glittering. The atmosphere was quiet and the only sound she could hear was the singing of the crickets.

After standing there for a long time, Su Ruan moved to close the window. Her movement halted when she saw Long's residence in the distance.

Her brow furrowed as she thought of the young master of that family.

Long Fei…

It has been a few days since the last time she ran into him in the town center. Each time that she had this strange dream, Su Ruan would think of the story that Long Fei had told them a few days ago.

She could not help but wonder if this story was related to her dream.

Could it be that it was the same dragon?

The cold breeze blew to her face and Su Ruan decided to discard that thought.

Perhaps, she should stop thinking about this matter. The more she tried to think of it, the more it will make her confused.

…

In the morning, Su Ruan headed to the dining area after washing up.

After greeting the elders, Su Ruan sat down and peek at the breakfast items that her grandmother had prepared.

Because she was planning to stay with them for a while, the breakfast in the house was a little luxurious.

Su Ruan took a sip of the hot milk and looked at the bowl of porridge in front of her.

"Su Ruan, do you have anything planned for today?" Ma Hao Dong asked as he looked at his granddaughter with a smile.

After that day she had visited the town center, Su Ruan had not left the house again. The past few days, she would spend her days leisurely accompanying her mother.

After her parents were divorced, Su Ruan decided to follow her father. It was a rare chance to see her mother. Now that she was staying in the town, Su Ruan decided to spend more time with her mother.

"I don't have anything planned," Su Ruan said. "I thought I was going to read some books and walk around."

"Then, do you want to come with me and look around at the orchard?" Ma Hao Dong asked. "It has been a few days since you come here. The last time, I told you that I will bring you around to look at the trees I planted. Your cousin, Yu Xi will be there as well." 

Su Ruan thought about her grandpa's idea and agreed. "Alright. I have nothing to do at the house anyway."

Since she had come to her grandpa's place, it would be a waste not to walk around the orchard.. The last time, her grandpa had said that he would bring her to pick up some fruits together.
