Chapter 4
Half an hour ago, Xing Yuanzhi suddenly woke up from a nightmare.

She sat up abruptly from the bed, her pajamas slipped off, her fragrant shoulders were half exposed, her blue silk was scattered, and from her forehead to her neck and back, she was full of smooth, cold sweat.

The unbearable childhood memories, mixed with the shame and guilt that made her sick, came to her mind almost at the same time.

She struggled to get out of bed, stumbled into the bathroom, and turned on the bathtub faucet.

Since that incident, Xing Yuanzhi has developed a serious cleanliness addiction and has to bathe at least three times a day.

She would often sit in the bathtub filled with hot water, mechanically stiffly scrubbing her body, as if her body was still covered with filthy blood.

No one knew about that except his father Xing Wenxing.

The father, who had returned home at the time, listened to the matter with a livid face, and immediately screened the family members outside. The father and daughter sent the two corpses out of the clan overnight for disposal.

With the prestige of the Hejian Xing clan, as long as the three justices and the six doors do not intend to cause trouble, the lives of the two clans can still be suppressed.

However, when the cause of death was announced to the public afterwards, some clan elders showed a thoughtful look, or looked at Xing Wenxing with a different kind of deep meaning, which made Xing Yuanzhi tremble.

I am afraid that many people in the clan have already known about this scandal.

However, if the trouble is about to go out, Xing Wenxing and his daughter will be the biggest victims, and the reputation of the entire Hejian Xing family will also plummet.

Infidelity outside of marriage, fornication at home, and forcing daughters to be born are all stigmas that make the family the laughing stock of the times. Therefore, everyone has a tacit understanding of the external caliber.

After so many years, Xing Yuanzhi had long forgotten about this... Or, when she became a superpower, she deliberately blocked that memory and planned to take it to the tomb.

But I didn't expect that it would suddenly appear in a dream tonight!
After silently scrubbing her body for a while, Xing Yuanzhi hugged her knees in the bathtub and buried her face in the hot water.

She forced her eyes wide open underwater, and her thoughts returned to the nightmare of a few minutes ago.

The mother's face, the man's appearance, she actually can't remember.

The only thing I remembered was that when my father opened the door and returned, he was standing between the two bloodied corpses, breaking down and crying loudly, his whole body covered in dirty blood.

bloodstained...

What I saw in the dream was two indescribable things made of pieces of meat. It was the biggest fear hidden in the depths of my memory, needless to say.

Killing them again in the dream, Xing Yuanzhi was disgusted and disgusted, and naturally he would not let them become his nightmare again.

However, before the dream ended, she suddenly felt something, turned her head, and saw a familiar face in the shadow edge of the room.

Cheng Jinyang, who used to be her marriage partner, appeared in her worst nightmare.

If it were someone else, it would probably just be a coincidence.However, Xing Yuanzhi has a delicate mind, and when she thinks about it, she realizes that her nightmare is very clear. Even the environment and words at that time can be meticulously reproduced from the depths of her memory. She should not suddenly appear at the last moment. of peers.

Is it a supernatural dream...

Thinking of this, she suddenly became horrified, as if the hot water in the bathtub instantly turned into ice cubes, which made her have a fearful urge to fight with her teeth.

This thing must be confirmed!

She hurriedly dried her body with a towel and put on her clothes. Xing Yuanzhi waved her hand to dismiss the servant who heard the news. She didn't call the family driver. She silently went out despite the cold wind in the middle of the night and early morning.

In the automatic light rail tram, the whole compartment was empty, and she was the only one sitting alone.

Looking at the countless neon lights that were as bright as day outside the window, Xing Yuanzhi secretly became ruthless and made up a certain determination in his heart.

………………

Through the cat's eyes, seeing Xing Yuanzhi standing outside the door strangely at four in the morning, Cheng Jinyang also felt a certain chill.

However, of course he couldn't hesitate for too long, otherwise people outside would soon realize that something was wrong, so Cheng Jinyang responded, pretending to be changing his clothes, while feeling the fruit knife from the kitchen, hiding it in his sleeve quietly, and then Open the door to Xing Yuanzhi.

"I'm sorry for disturbing you late at night." Xing Yuanzhi folded her hands together in apology, and said with a smile, "I still want to come over and confirm with you personally about the engagement we talked about earlier."

She changed her shoes and came in, sniffed a few times, and asked curiously:
"It seems to taste like instant noodles?"

"I woke up from hunger, so I got something to feed myself." Cheng Jinyang closed the door and replied.

"That's it." Xing Yuanzhi covered her mouth and smiled, "You would wake up from hunger, didn't you have dinner last night? And it's still 4:[-] in the morning. Usually, you wake up from a 'nightmare' at this time."

Her tone was casual and natural, as if she was talking about a common topic.

Cheng Jinyang looked indifferent, nodded and said:

"So you didn't go to bed at 4 in the morning and came to my side because you were woken up by a nightmare?"

Xing Yuanzhi's pupils shrank imperceptibly, and then she laughed without any flaws:
"Almost. Well, I want to see that engagement contract, have you found it?"

Her smile was warm and genial, unlike the cold temperament when she first met.

Cheng Jinyang also knew why Xing Yuanzhi was like this, so he silently took out a marriage contract from his schoolbag, put it on the table and pushed it gently.

Seeing the paper marriage contract, Xing Yuanzhi's heart was full of mixed feelings.

If she did it before, she would probably be relieved, and then take it away and destroy it without any burden, and have nothing to do with Cheng Jinyang since then.

However, now, not to mention the relationship, the more serious handle may have fallen into the hands of the other party!

If this matter is not clear, she will have trouble sleeping and eating for the rest of her life.

After reading the engagement contract carefully, Xing Yuanzhi sighed and said:

"Our Xing family is also deeply guilty about the matter of Uncle Cheng Qinghe."

No, eldest sister, if you break off the marriage, what are you doing?Shouldn't he regret it... Cheng Jinyang thought to himself.

"The marriage of my uncle and aunt in the past was not only strongly opposed by the Cheng family, but also disapproved by the Xing family." Xing Yuanzhi continued, "It has always been difficult for a wealthy family to marry a humble family. I remember it as my surname..."

"Thank you." Cheng Jinyang replied, "My mother's surname is Xie, but she is not from the Fufeng Xie clan, but from a commoner."

"Well, if Aunt Xie is a poor family, it's better to say. If you are a commoner, it is naturally difficult to marry the Cheng family. However, the uncle ran away with his aunt in a moment of enthusiasm, although there are many inside the Xing family about this. I'm criticized, but I personally look forward to this kind of courage..."

Her explanation was quite ingenious, and she cut "Xing's family" and "self" at once.Although the "Xing family" is against your parents' marriage, I support your parents' love!

Rao is that Cheng Jinyang still didn't believe her words, but when he heard the words, his expression softened a little, and his favorability increased a little.

Xing Yuanzhi's mind sank a little, and he continued to talk softly on the surface, but he was thinking quickly in his heart:
Fufeng Xie?It doesn't seem to be a spiritual power, and I have never heard of rumors that it can manipulate and penetrate other people's dreams...

"Actually, my father didn't want to break off the marriage." Her mind wandered, and she continued with a wry smile, "But you also know that I have high expectations from the clan now, and I can't choose someone arbitrarily for marriage. If you want to fulfill it with me The marriage contract will definitely be criticized by everyone in my clan, I can't bear to involve you in it..."

"Understood." Cheng Jinyang nodded again and again, and pushed the past marriage contract forward again, "So this marriage contract is cancelled, and you and Ling Zun will not be embarrassed."

Xing Yuanzhi: ? ? ?

Wait, I remember the last time when I mentioned that the marriage contract was about to be terminated, this person was still quite downhearted, helpless, resentful, and lost. In the end, he couldn't bear to get out of the door. How could he suddenly become Empathetic and sensible?

One night's effort... Thinking of this, she suddenly stared at Cheng Jinyang's face, her eyes slowly widening.
