Chapter 96: So It Was All a Dream
To confirm, Chen Tianlong leaned his body forward, then touched Lin Wushuang’s forehead with his hand. It seemed she wasn’t having a fever.
"Wushuang, do you remember who I am?" Chen Tianlong asked tentatively.
"Oh please, don’t think just because it’s a dream that I don’t recognize you, you big perv. Even if you turn into ashes, I’d still know it was you." Seeing Chen Tianlong ask like this, Lin Wushuang was even more convinced it was a dream.
Otherwise, how could Chen Tianlong normally ask such a silly question?
"In a dream?"
Chen Tianlong finally understood. Obviously, the girl really thought she was dreaming. But this was the best result; otherwise, with the young lady’s temperament, she’d surely explode and might even kill him.
"Haha, it seems we’re quite destined, even in a dream, to be taking a bath together," Chen Tianlong said accommodatingly.
"Hmph, surely it’s your dirty mind that pulled me into your dream. I wouldn’t dream like this, if I did, it would be of a handsome guy, not you, you little punk."
With Chen Tianlong’s coaxing, the young lady really believed it was a dream.
No wonder, Lin Wushuang was poisoned heavily, and her body hadn’t completely rid itself of the toxins yet. Her mind was still in a daze and didn’t think too much.
After saying a few words, Lin Wushuang felt very sleepy and closed her eyes again. Meanwhile, Chen Tianlong’s heart was racing, unable to control it.
Since this girl thought it was a dream, kissing her wouldn’t be too much, right? Fine, let’s do it, he saved her after all, and this small sacrifice should be worth it.
With this reasoning, Chen Tianlong didn’t hesitate much and directly pressed his lips against Lin Wushuang’s.
At that moment, Lin Wushuang clearly felt it too, and weakly opened her eyes to see Chen Tianlong’s actions, first stunned, then she didn’t react.
Anyway, it’s a dream, so she’ll just give in to this guy once.
Seeing Lin Wushuang not reacting, Chen Tianlong boldly continued...
However, Chen Tianlong’s actions were limited to this, after all, doing anything else might wake Lin Wushuang up and realize it wasn’t a dream, which would be disastrous.
Another hour passed, the water in the bathtub turned nearly black, and the dirt accumulated on them fell off into the water, making them cleaner.
Looking at Lin Wushuang’s fair skin ahead, Chen Tianlong couldn’t help but feel a bit excited.
Suddenly, Lin Wushuang opened her eyes, her expression somewhat unpleasant because she... wanted to pee.
"Anyway, it’s a dream, no need to go to the toilet, Chen Tianlong, I’m going to stink you out."
Lin Wushuang seemed very smug. In reality, she wouldn’t dare do anything to Chen Tianlong, but in a dream, she could torment him a bit, which felt quite satisfying.
"Miss, look behind you, Xiaoyu is here too." Chen Tianlong suddenly pointed behind Lin Wushuang.
"Huh? Xiaoyu?"
Lin Wushuang turned back, thinking, even in a dream, her best friend was joining in?
Just then, she felt a knock on her neck, and Lin Wushuang fainted.
"Phew..."
Chen Tianlong let out a deep breath. Judging by the situation, the toxins were fully removed, and Lin Wushuang would awaken slowly soon. If she realized this was real, she’d surely throw a fit.
While Lin Wushuang was unconscious, Chen Tianlong quickly carried her to the bathroom, turned on the shower, and helped her clean up. At this moment, Chen Tianlong didn’t think much since time was pressing.
Ten minutes later, Chen Tianlong helped Lin Wushuang get dressed, said goodbye to the third master, and without much time to meet the second master Chu Yaoyao, he swiftly departed.
When Lin Wushuang awoke again, she found herself lying in a car. She focused her eyes and saw that Chen Tianlong was driving.
Her neck ached slightly, and after looking at herself, her clothes were perfectly intact. She smiled wryly; it turned out she really had a dream, and even in the dream, Chen Tianlong appeared, leaving her speechless.
Her face turned slightly red, remembering in her dream, she was seen naked by Chen Tianlong and even kissed by him. Thinking about it now, Lin Wushuang felt she had become a bit of a fangirl. Even in a dream, she shouldn’t let this guy take advantage.
Shaking her head, Lin Wushuang said to the front, "Chen Tianlong, what’s going on? Why is it just the two of us, where exactly have we gone?"
Chen Tianlong had noticed Lin Wushuang was awake, but since she didn’t speak, he couldn’t be bothered.
"You were poisoned, I took you to a place where a doctor saved you." Chen Tianlong didn’t want anyone to know he’d been to Lotus Village, so he fabricated a lie.
"Ah? Alright then!" Hearing Chen Tianlong explain, Lin Wushuang indeed recalled the dining hall incident, "Does my dad know?"
"Of course, this time you were poisoned quite seriously. If I hadn’t taken you there in time, you might have lost your life." Chen Tianlong disclosed the truth, wanting her to know he was a competent bodyguard, not to be blamed constantly.
"Oh, thank you!" Lin Wushuang said blandly.
After all, she had been unconscious the whole way and hadn’t seen Chen Tianlong’s anxiety or his pleas for her rescue, so she didn’t feel overly moved.
Chen Tianlong had no intention of bragging, merely chuckled and accelerated the car.
Around one in the morning, Chen Tianlong’s car slowly entered the Lin Family Mansion, while Lin Batian was clearly still awake, anxiously waiting in the hall.
This was the Lin Family’s sole heir; if anything happened to her, Lin Batian would be devastated.
"Chen Tianlong, about Wushuang..."
Lin Batian didn’t dare continue his question, fearing the answer would be something unbearable.
"Dad, why aren’t you asleep yet?"
Suddenly, Lin Wushuang opened the car door, bounced out, and walked over, showing no sign of illness.
Lin Batian widened his eyes; he thought even if his daughter got better, she would need to rest for a few days. He had already arranged for her leave.
Unexpectedly, Lin Wushuang appeared lively before him, to his great surprise.
"Sweetheart, are you okay?" Lin Batian didn’t mind Lin Wushuang’s embarrassment and pulled her into his arms, shedding tears.
Lin Wushuang was taken aback. It had been a long time since she felt such a warm hug from her father. Surely, some very dangerous events had occurred.
"Wushuang, you’re finally back; you scared Xiaoyu to death, boohoo..."
Lu Xiaoyu cried with excitement, walked over, and held Lin Wushuang’s hand, pouting, "I thought I’d have no one to play with anymore."
"Haha, silly Xiaoyu, how could that be? I’m back in one piece, see?" Lin Wushuang, seeing her best friend with a tear-stained face, felt deeply moved.
"Alright, everyone, there’s nothing more for me, so I’ll be leaving first." Seeing this scene, Chen Tianlong felt quite gratified; thankfully Lin Wushuang was alright.
