President Xie and Lawyer Luo used to jest with each other like this.
It was all intentional, only used within the privacy of their own room...
In front of him was his Ranran!
Be it in a dream or whatever, the person before his eyes was his Ranran.
Xie Xiao reached out to pull Luo Yanran, and she didn't dodge.
A smile appeared in Luo Yanran's eyes, along with so grievances, "It really is you, I thought it was another nightmare..."
"Wife..." Xie Xiao gripped Luo Yanran's hand tightly.
She responded with a laugh, "Yes."
In that instant, the Luo Yanran beside him, the school road, and the people around him all vanished.
Xie Xiao abruptly opened his eyes.
Sweat was still present on his forehead, and Luo Yanran also suddenly exclaid.
Xie Xiao's first reaction was to sit up and turn to look at her with concern, "What happened..."
But Luo Yanran suddenly sat up and stretched out her arms to hug him, "I had a nightmare, I was back in the past..."
Luo Yanran opened her eyes to find herself in an office, a strange office.
A secretary stood in front of her, "President Luo, it's ti to go to the anniversary celebration."
The title "President Luo" puzzled Luo Yanran completely.
Ignoring the secretary's words, she imdiately pulled out her phone to call Xie Xiao.
But the contacts were all unfamiliar, Xie Xiao's number was not there; the only familiar one was probably Liu Ou's.
However, she couldn't get through to Liu Ou.
She panicked, surveying the unfamiliar office that was very clean. So clean it seed unused.
A man nad Luo Xin ca at this mont, and Luo Yanran rembered him; he was a forr classmate...
His tone was as if they were very familiar, but they hadn't been in contact since graduation...
Luo Yanran felt a chill all over, but she also cald herself down, considering this might be a dream...
Or sothing... she had to figure it out.
So she followed Luo Xin to the anniversary celebration, intuition telling her Xie Xiao would be there.
However, she saw Xie Xiao standing by the roadside, with Zhou Mianmian beside him.
But Xie Xiao simply looked at her, a cell phone in his hands, his eyes brimming with confusion.
Luo Yanran wasn't quite sure if this was her husband.
But she couldn't bear the thought of soone else touching him.
So Luo Yanran still walked over.
Suppressing the fear in her heart, she called out, "President Xie."
Thankfully, thankfully, it was her Xie Xiao...
At that mont, she was in Xie Xiao's arms, his voice very low, "I will never again speak such words, even in dreams I'm afraid..."
Xie Xiao never imagined that their dreams were connected.
He held the person in his arms tighter.
"Thank you. Thank you for calling out to ..."
If it hadn't been for Luo Yanran coming over in that instant, Xie Xiao wasn't certain if he would have taken the initiative to go over.
The dream felt too real to Xie Xiao.
If not for that car accident, could that have been his future?
He might have followed Zhou Mianmian to an ordinary university, pursued an ordinary career.
Luo Yanran would eventually follow the path laid out by her father.
Study a major she didn't like, but she would still excel, because Luo Yanran was that kind of person.
Their worlds would have no intersection after graduating from high school.
Perhaps at so point, they might encounter each other at school or so other place.
Xie Xiao would be just another face in the crowd.
While Luo Yanran would beco increasingly dazzling and excellent.
Soone equally remarkable would be by her side.
Perhaps upon hearing the na "Xie Xiao", she might curiously turn for a glance.
But that would be all, she might feel a bit of regret for the boy she once liked turning out this way.
Ordinary and lacklustre.
Perhaps she would still have regrets?
She looked at herself with eyes that seed to regard a stranger.
No longer lit with brightness and joy.
Their lives were two lines that would never intersect again.
And what about him?
Maybe he had no close friends left by his side.
Perhaps he would have friends, an ordinary life.
Complain about the trivial annoyances in life with them.
The girl he once loved so much might be lucky enough to beco his wife, or perhaps she'd slip through his fingers after he went to university.
She would walk away with soone else.
And that would be his life.
Teacher Xie and Dr. Yang would be disappointed, but what could they do? Life was about his own choices.
Eventually, he would marry soone suitable at the right age...
But that person wouldn't be the dazzling Ranran anymore.
And they wouldn't have little Tuan Zi either...
With his eyes closed, Xie Xiao kissed Luo Yanran, "I'm glad you woke up. How could I wake from such a nightmare... without you?"
You are my redemption.
Luo Yanran buried her face in his chest, "It's okay, I would have definitely woken you up, I like you so much…"
I simply can't accept anyone else standing by your side, so I will definitely co to you.
I may have lacked courage in high school, but after that, I would soday have the courage to stand before you.
Both were affected by the nightmare.
Luo Yanran's eyes were red, and so were Xie Xiao's.
Neither felt like sleeping anymore.
They embraced and chatted softly.
By the ti the sky began to brighten, Luo Yanran had fallen asleep.
Xie Xiao glanced at the clock; it was already past five.
He sent a ssage to Li Jun, saying he wouldn't co to the office in the morning if nothing important ca up and to call him if needed.
Then he checked Luo Yanran's phone for her schedule and saw she wasn't busy in the morning either.
So he requested a day off for her, citing a minor illness.
Ever since they found out Luo Yanran was Luo Ming's daughter, it had been easier to negotiate with her side.
Finally, Xie Xiao got up and went to the balcony for a smoke.
Then he went into the kitchen to make breakfast. Aunt Huang was surprised when she arrived, "Sir, you're up so early today?"
"Yes, I woke up early. I'll take care of it, Aunt Huang," Xie Xiao said with a smile.
Aunt Huang, with a smile, responded, "Alright then."
After Xie Xiao made breakfast, he woke up his son, helped him with washing and dressing, and then brought him out for breakfast.
Tuan Zi asked, "Where's mom?"
"Mom is still sleeping. She's very tired. Dad will take you to school, and mom will pick you up tonight, okay?" Xie Xiao said with a smile.
The little one's face showed unhappiness, "Why isn't mom spending ti with again~"
Aunt Huang perhaps misunderstood and soothingly said, "Mom was tired last night, Tuan Zi be good~"
But Luo Yanran got up driven by her biological clock.
She wore an expression of exhaustion on her face.
Leaning on the doorway, she watched her husband soothe their son.
The images from last night's nightmare gradually dissipated from her mind.
Actually, thinking about it now, that dream seed a bit far-fetched.

If Xie Xiao had gone to the sa school as Zhou Mianmian, she probably would have followed him too.
Maybe she wouldn't have given up until she saw them marry.
She wouldn't have simply parted ways with Xie Xiao after the college entrance exam.
Because she was stubborn; even if her own life fell apart, it didn't matter—that's just how she was.
Xie Xiao was her redemption.
And she wanted to be his redemption too.
