Tu Jiaojiao nodded: "Yes, I believe you."

Because it was late and they were tired from the journey, they talked for a while and then washed up and went to bed.

On the other side, Chen Fang and Bai Yuzhu couldn't fall asleep.

Chen Fang was always worried about her daughter who had eloped. Xie Xiu came to the capital alive and caused a lot of trouble on the first day of his arrival, which made her unable to sleep or eat.

Bai Yuzhu's mind was full of Xu Maochun and today's humiliation, and she was so angry that she almost bit her teeth.

The two tossed and turned, unable to fall asleep.

It was not until they smelled a refreshing fragrance that they fell into a deep sleep.

Unexpectedly, the two of them had nightmares all night long!

"no, do not want--"

Bai Yuzhu screamed and sat up, her wide eyes filled with panic, and the nightmare just now kept replaying in her mind - Xu Maochun was covered in blood and was hacked to death by someone.

The maid who was sleeping on the footstool and keeping watch was awakened by her. She sat up and looked at her worriedly, asking cautiously, "Young Madam, what's wrong with you? Did you have a nightmare?"

Bai Yuzhu finally came to her senses, but her heart was still beating fast and she was so panicked that she was at a loss.

She panted heavily for a few times before asking, "What time is it now?"

"It's already five o'clock in the morning," the maid whispered, then asked, "It's still dark, Madam, why don't you sleep a little longer?"

Bai Yuzhu nodded and slowly lay back down, but found that she couldn't fall asleep at all.

As soon as she closed her eyes, she would see Xu Maochun covered in blood.

Chen Fang was also having a hard time.

She dreamed that Xie Jia was raped and died tragically outside, and finally woke up from the nightmare.

But she didn't scream like Bai Yuzhu.

She clutched the quilt tightly, and her well-maintained fingernails scratched shocking marks on the satin embroidered with the words "good fortune and happiness".

I couldn't sleep anymore after that.

Chen Fang lay on the bed, feeling extremely anxious, and her head began to throb with pain.

After learning that Xie Jia had eloped with someone, she was so angry that she became sick.

She asked Bai Yuzhu to act as the housekeeper these days so that she could devote more energy to looking for her daughter.

She had had nightmares many times since Xie Jia eloped, but none as severe as tonight.

Not only did it make her repeat all the nightmares she had before, but the dreams were also extremely real.

She seemed to hear her daughter's screams, and even after waking up, she could still recall the sharp pain of her daughter's nails scratching her arm.

Is such reality really just a dream?

Could it be that her beautiful daughter was really being abused outside?

No, no, no, she can't think like that.

My daughter is blessed and will definitely be safe and sound!

Chen Fang was just comforting herself when a maid came in and said that Bai Yuzhu had come to pay her respects.

She subconsciously glanced at the dark sky outside, then frowned. "It's not even daybreak yet, why is Bai Yuzhu here to greet me?" When did this woman become so proactive?

I'm afraid that coming to pay my respects to her is fake, and the real purpose is to force her to tell me the whereabouts of Xu Maochun!

Chen Fang curled her lips in sarcasm: "Just say I'm not awake yet and ask her to wait outside."

Before he could finish his words, Bai Yuzhu rushed in.

"Isn't mother-in-law awake already?"

Looking at Bai Yuzhu who suddenly rushed in, Chen Fang's face turned pale instantly.

She glared at Bai Yuzhu angrily and asked through gritted teeth, "Is this your rule? You just barge into my room?"

However, Bai Yuzhu was not at all panicked. She even sneered and walked directly to the bedside, pulled the embroidered cushion and sat down. "My manners are naturally not as good as Jiaer's. She was taught by my mother-in-law herself, so naturally she can satisfy me in every aspect. Don't you agree, mother-in-law?"

Chen Fang didn't expect that she would dare to mention Xie Jia. She was so angry that she sat up suddenly and slapped her hard in the face.

"Snapped!"

With a crisp sound, Bai Yuzhu grabbed Chen Fang's wrist tightly, his nails digging deep into her tender skin, causing her pain, but it coincided with the feeling in her dream.
