Transmigration: Experiencing Life's End - Dying Peacefully in One's Sleep

When she got home, her mother hadn't come home from get off work yet. He Yimei put down her things and immediately started washing the rice and steaming it.

He Yichen then cooked a few dishes so that they could eat as soon as the others returned.

The sound of a key turning in the lock came from the door. He Yimei went over, opened the door, and took her mother's arm.

"Mom, we're back! Come in, dinner's ready!" Her voice was filled with joy.

When Mrs. He saw her daughter, she smiled and said, "Yimei and Yichen are back. When did they arrive?"

He Yichen called out to someone, "Auntie, we just arrived not long ago."

Mrs. He said with a smile, "Yichen, let me wash my hands first. You've just gotten back and you must be hungry, so eat first."

I felt at ease. My two children are so sensible and know how to care for others; they even prepared dinner when they got back.

While eating, she served them food, saying, "Eat more. You've lost weight after being at school for so long. This dish was cooked by Yichen, right? It tastes great."

Knowing that Yi Mei isn't very good at cooking, this skill is clearly Yi Chen's.

He Yichen modestly said, "I made it, but it's still far inferior to Auntie's cooking. The rice was cooked by Mei."

He Yimei asked sweetly, "Mom, is the food I cooked delicious?"

Mrs. He spoiled her: "Of course, my daughter's cooking is especially delicious."

"Hahaha." The three of them chatted and laughed, creating a warm atmosphere.

He Yichen found the contrast between He Yimei's unusually gentle and delicate demeanor in front of her parents quite endearing.

She's not usually seen joking with people, and she doesn't talk much, but in front of her parents, she's always a spoiled little princess.

A gentle smile, a warm feeling in my heart—this is what a happy family is like.

When Mr. He returned home in the evening, Mrs. He had prepared a table full of dishes, including everyone's favorites.

He Yimei was helping out, and when He Yichen tried to help, his mother kicked him out of the kitchen.

"Hahaha." He Yimei burst out laughing.

He Yichen felt a little helpless seeing her smiling so happily.

Go out and chat with your uncle for a while, talk about things like studying and getting along with friends at school.

When the meal was almost ready, He Yimei came out and called everyone to come eat.

"It's time to eat. Go wash your hands and get ready to eat."

Mr. He and Mr. He Yichen obediently went to wash their hands and then served the dishes.

The family enjoyed their meal together, chatting and laughing.

He Yimei felt a bit full after eating, so she took her mother for a walk, and the two chatted along the way.

We chatted about everyday family matters and interesting stories from other people's families.

He Yichen and his father were having tea when they saw the two return.

"You're back. You must be hot. Sit down and rest for a while," Mr. He said to Mrs. He.

Seeing that He Yimei was also hot, He Yichen poured her a glass of water.

He Yimei took it and drank it in one gulp: "Thank you, brother."

After resting for a while, He Yimei went to take a shower.

Wear a slip dress; it's a loose style, the kind you can wear out.

However, He Yimei didn't go out; she stayed in her room. She still had a lot of homework to do, and now was the perfect time to start.

While doing my homework, two or three hours passed by without me even realizing it.

I glanced at my watch and saw it was already midnight. I felt a bit thirsty.

He Yimei went out to the living room, sat on the sofa, poured herself a glass of water, and drank it slowly.

The door opened, and He Yichen came out in his pajamas and saw He Yimei.

"You haven't slept yet?"

He Yimei nodded: "I've been doing my homework since then."

"Then go to sleep early. Don't write tonight, it's getting late." He Yichen was worried that it would be bad for his eyes to stay up late.

"Okay, I'll go to sleep later."

He Yichen also poured himself a glass of water and sat down on the sofa.

"You're still awake too?" He Yimei asked, curious about what he had been up to.

"I was chatting with my aunt and uncle until a little late, and I just took a shower not long ago."

"I see. I'm going to sleep now."

He Yichen nodded.

He Yimei put down her water glass and was about to leave the sofa to go back to her room when she happened to pass by He Yichen.

As she walked by, she accidentally tripped over her slippers, lost her balance, and fell forward. He Yichen saw that she was about to fall and quickly reached out to catch her.

He Yimei pushed him down and lay on top of him, while He Yichen lay on the sofa and hugged He Yimei.

Both of them were stunned. Summer clothes were thin, and He Yichen could feel the softness clinging to his body, which made him a little uncomfortable. He just lowered his head to check if she was alright.

Because of the angle, looking down directly reveals places I shouldn't be looking at.

Although she is still young, He Yimei has developed early and her physical development is very good.

Startled, He Yichen quickly looked away: "Are you alright?"

His tone was a little unnatural, but He Yimei didn't notice.

He Yimei stood up: "It's nothing, how about you?"

"I'm fine," he replied, glancing at her clothes.

The halter neck and shoulders are exposed, highlighting the collarbone, and the neckline is wide.

"That's good, then I'll go in." He Yimei went inside to sleep, not dwelling on the accident that had just happened.

After He Yimei went inside, He Yichen poured himself another glass of water and drank it before he felt the fever subside.

I sat there blankly for a while before going back to my room to sleep. My mind was a bit of a mess, so I forced myself to go to sleep quickly.

He finally fell asleep, but the scene in his dream terrified him.

When I woke up the next day, I was still a little dazed, wondering how I could have had such a dream, especially one involving her.

She covered her face with her hands and it took her a while to calm down before she changed her clothes and took a shower.

When I see someone while eating breakfast, I don't dare to look up at her face.

Mrs. He: "Yichen doesn't seem to be in good spirits today. Did he not sleep well last night?"

"I went to bed a little late last night," He Yichen said casually.

Mrs. He said with concern, "You should go to bed earlier in the future, otherwise you won't have any energy during the day."

He Yichen nodded.

He Yimei glanced at him but didn't say anything, her mind preoccupied with her homework as she ate.

I got a question wrong last night, and I still need to figure it out.

In the days that followed, He Yichen also figured out why his attention was always focused on her. He went from being surprised to see her in his dreams to accepting and looking forward to it.

The young man secretly fell in love, but dared not let anyone discover it.

School days pass quickly; a few years go by in the blink of an eye.

The countdown to the college entrance examination has begun; there are only three months left until the exam.

Everyone was studying hard every day, and He Yimei would go to the shop near the school gate during her spare time, order a latte, and do her homework while drinking it.

The phone rang; it was He Yichen calling, with the words "brother" saved in the contact's name.

This is a birthday gift that He Yichen, who has turned eighteen, bought for He Yimei with the money he earned from part-time jobs in his spare time.

At the time, He Yimei felt it was too expensive and was unwilling to accept it. He Yichen persuaded her for a long time before she finally accepted it, saying that since she had already bought it, it would be a waste not to use it.

He Yimei had no choice but to accept it, but then she remembered that in the original plot, He Yichen didn't even have a cell phone when he was in college, but now he actually bought one in high school.

Could it be because they've gotten involved with me? After all, I've been studying hard for the past two years and my grades have always been excellent. It's just that I'm not an adult yet, so I haven't had any part-time jobs.

He Yichen bought two cell phones at once, spending all his part-time job earnings on them.

[Brother, what's wrong?]

[Where are you?]

[At the coffee shop near the school gate.]

[Wait, I'm coming to find you.]

After finishing the call, she hung up. He Yimei was puzzled, so she put down her phone and continued working on her problems.
