Jiang Yingxue was curious about what it would be like if she were dragged into a nightmare. As expected, the Gumeng Clan's abilities were limited, trapping her in the most agonizing memory of her life. And that agonizing memory pales in comparison to the sudden death she experienced in her previous life, after being toiled like a slave.

So after confirming that she had no weaknesses that could be exploited, Jiang Yingxue decided to have some fun in her dream before going out. For example, she wanted to play with this handsome senior brother.

Yan Chuan came to his senses and pushed Jiang Yingxue away. He raised his hand to half cover his lips, with a look of disbelief on his face: "What are you doing!?"

"What? Just a kiss." Jiang Yingxue said confidently, "This is my dream. I can do whatever I want."

Seeing this, Yan Chuan suddenly didn't know whether he should tell the truth. His face flushed at a visible speed: "How can a daughter of a noble family be so shameless and care about her relatives so casually!?"

"This is my dream. In dreams, anything is allowed. Besides, this is my first time kissing someone, and I didn't even blush. Why are you blushing? Aren't you a famous dandy in the capital? Is this all fake? You've never kissed a girl before?"

Hearing this, Yan Chuan suddenly became nervous. He didn't answer Jiang Yingxue's question, but instead asked, "Do you admire me?"

"I do like your face." Jiang Yingxue said truthfully: "But also..."

Before he could finish his words, Yan Chuan rushed out and disappeared without a trace.

Jiang Yingxue was stunned. She had originally wanted to say that she really liked this face, but that was all she liked, so she wanted to try it out in her dream. In reality, she didn't want to provoke this person who was one thing in front of her and another behind her back.

But, wasn't this my dream? How could he have escaped so easily?

Jiang Yingxue quickly sat down, closed her eyes and silently chanted: Come back to me, come back to me, come back to me...

However, no matter how many times she repeated it silently, there was still no sign of the other party returning.

"What a crappy dream! I can't even control it freely? Forget it..." Jiang Yingxue decided not to stay any longer.

"Wake up, wake up! Master, Yingxue is awake!" Chu Ying excitedly called out to everyone, then stepped forward and slowly helped Jiang Yingxue up from the bed.

Chu Ying quickly asked, "Yingxue, are you okay? Did you have a nightmare? Do you feel uncomfortable anywhere?"

Jiang Yingxue shook her head slightly and said softly, "I'm fine, I just took a nap."

Seeing this, Wan Jinan finally breathed a sigh of relief: "It's good that you're awake. However, didn't we agree long ago that the Gumeng Clan would most likely take action tonight? Why are you still asleep?"

Jiang Yingxue sighed softly and said, "I can't help it. I was born weak and have been weak since I was a child. I feel sleepy at a certain time."

Wan Jinan narrowed his eyes and continued, "But haven't you already practiced the Lanxu technique? Why do you still get tired easily?"

"Actually, after practicing, my health has improved a lot. But the lack of Qi and blood is innate, there's really nothing I can do about it..."

"Okay." Although Wan Jinan had never seen such a situation before, everyone has different faces. Jiang Yingxue always looked weak in the past, so it was probably impossible for her to pretend.

However, as soon as the words were spoken, Yan Chuan, who was sitting on the round stool, sneered.

Insufficient Qi and blood? Just now in the dream, he was clearly in high spirits, and he kept saying that this was his dream and he had the final say. How could he be insufficient Qi and blood?

Yan Chuan muttered, "Pretend..."

Jiang Yingxue heard this very clearly.

She looked at Yan Chuan and found that his cheeks were slightly red, but his expression became even gloomier under the light...

The moment her eyes met his, Yan Chuan quickly looked away, as if he was deliberately avoiding her.

Jiang Yingxue was puzzled: "Brother, what's wrong with you? You look like you're sulking?"

"Nothing." He sat slightly sideways, crossed his arms over his chest, and did not intend to respond to her directly.

"But you look angry, senior brother... But what did I do wrong to offend you, senior brother?" Jiang Yingxue continued to ask. After all, to be fair, she felt that she had not done anything to make Yan Chuan angry. How come he looked like this after waking up?

"My Qiyan family goes back on their word, is that not okay?"

"Oh... So it's the Yan family you're angry about..." Jiang Yingxue said calmly. So Yan Chuan has such a strong sense of justice? He's actually sulking over the Yan family? Song Chaoge hasn't even started to get angry yet, so what is he angry about?

It's true, he was seriously injured today while trying to save Meng Yu from Yan Dongsheng. But why does it always feel a little off? It feels like something like this wouldn't make him sulk...

Just as Jiang Yingxue was wondering, Yan Chuan suddenly stood up, and the displeasure on his face became more and more obvious.

Wan Jinan quickly asked, "Where are you going so late at night?"

"The room is crowded and too stuffy. I'm going to get some fresh air." After saying that, Yan Chuan walked out without looking back.

Wan Jinan knew his disciple too well. He had been acting like this since he came out of Jiang Yingxue's dream, so it was definitely not the Yan family who made him so angry. But what could Jiang Yingxue have done in the dream to make him so angry?

After waking up from the dream, he repeatedly stressed to everyone that Jiang Yingxue should not be told that he had been in her dream. Something must have happened...

Thinking of this, Wan Jinan quickly said to Chu Ying, "Chu Ying, why don't you go and take a look? I wonder what your senior brother is upset about."

"okay."

Chu Ying nodded and was about to go out when Wan Jinan said, "Wait a minute, I have two small pots of peach blossom wine."

After that, Wan Jinan took out two pots of wine from his ring: "This is what the Yan family had for us tonight. Take it and drink it with your senior brother. Ask them some questions. Show some concern for them. Find out more about them and come back to tell us."

Chu Ying raised her eyebrows, immediately took the wine, and said slowly: "Master, don't worry, I will definitely get back what I said."

Then he ran out.

Chu Ying ran to the yard. She looked up and found that her senior brother had not gone far away. Instead, he was sitting quietly on the roof, his silhouette looking particularly cold in the moonlight.

The moon tonight shines with a cool light, reflecting on the edges of the tiles and adding a hazy halo to the roof.

In my impression, Senior Brother Yan Chuan always appears calm, self-possessed, upright and decent, and rarely loses his composure like he did today.

With a light leap, she climbed up onto the rooftop and sat down next to Yan Chuan. The night wind whistled in his ears, bringing a slight chill. The quietness of the surroundings and the height of the rooftop made him feel a little alienated.

"Brother, would you like to have a drink together?" Chu Ying handed over the wine in her hand.
