Chapter 8, I hope you will care for me

I swear, in order to get a good night's sleep, I will definitely relax to the fullest today

I do not know how long it has been, when my phone rang, the cheerful "Happy Birthday" bounced exuberantly in the bright and quiet room, almost startling me into jumping up.

I was feeling restless and uncomfortable, and I shouted at my phone: "I was already in bed! If it weren't for your call, I would have fallen asleep!"

What are you arguing about

Before she could finish her sentence, Ding Ling was already laughing even louder: "Jiao'er, are you also composing a novel in your dreams?"

Sighing, I softened my voice: "Alright, I admit that I haven't changed my living habits, and I can't sleep for a moment. I will go downstairs to find a sleeping pill to take, and I will definitely go to bed early, not allowing myself to age prematurely, okay?"

He apologized, and only then did I feel that I had been a bit excessive

I gritted my teeth and said: "I went to bed at 9 o'clock, and just as I was starting to feel sleepy, you disturbed me again!"

As I waved to summon a taxi, the jade bracelet on my wrist seemed even more translucent in the sunlight; I could almost see a beautiful woman within the bracelet, light and smiling, her brows resembling distant mountains, and her eyes as bright as autumn waves.

Yan Yining fell silent for a moment and said softly, "Ah, I'm sorry, Jiao'er, it's my fault for not sending you a message to ask first"

I understand! I shouted at him without any regard for my image: "I'm not being irrational, I won't eat more!"

I patted her shoulder proudly and said, "It's getting late, take a taxi to help me send my things back, and then let's go out for dinner!"

I nodded slightly, kicked the green island beside me, and exclaimed: "It must be! Damn it, I've been dreaming for two consecutive days about an ancient woman arguing with me, it's truly a ghost sighting!"

When I returned to the bedroom in my pajamas, swaying while holding water and medicine, my phone showed two missed calls and a text message.

I jumped out of bed in anger and glanced at the caller ID; it was Yan Yining. When I answered, I heard his familiar and deep voice say: "Jiao'er, it's time to sleep, it's getting late!"

She poked the pocket where I kept my credit card and said: "The golden son-in-law has already been caught, so take good care of him! Stop worrying so much about your novel!"

The voice from the other end immediately became anxious: "Hey, Jiao'er, don't mess around, that thing shouldn't be eaten carelessly"

I strive to fall asleep, yet the bright light shines dazzlingly, penetrating through my tightly closed eyelids into my pupils, causing my eyes to feel both dry and painful, and I am unable to sleep.

Ah? Yan Yining asked in confusion, "Why are you being so well-behaved today? It's only just past 12:00!"

That night, I went to bed early and, after routinely sending and receiving emails, I burrowed into the quilt

Although I believe that the strange dreams from the past two nights were merely coincidental, the unsettling feeling in my heart lingers, making me even afraid to turn off the lights

Without waiting for him to continue his nagging like an old woman, I hung up the phone, jumped out of bed, and went to look for sleeping pills

Ding Ling is indeed happy to accompany, already calculating which restaurant to indulge in a feast tonight

I reflected: "One told me to apply rouge, turning me into a hideous creature; and another woman kept saying I was her, and she was me..."

Isn't it the pillow's fault that I can't sleep? Poor thing, it has been so good to me, yet I have turned it into a punching bag for my frustrations

Upon opening it, I found an unanswered call from Yan Yining, along with a text message expressing helplessness: "Jiao'er, when will you stop making me feel this way?"

As I swallowed the pill, I replied: "When I die"
