Our dreams are often the connotation of our deepest desires. Sometimes, these dreams feel like reality. But when reality comes, we mistake it as just another dream. In other words, dreams are just like a wish. A wish that’s buried deep inside of us.
Ye Jun had repeated this exact same scene so many times in his dreams that now, he felt like it was just another illusion. Perhaps that’s why he stood there staring at her face like a statue. Seeing her at his door had become his biggest wish in the past months. Plenty told him that he deserved someone better than her. Because she ran away from him.
But Ye Jun didn’t think like that at all. For him, she had become someone whom he wanted to protect for the rest of his life. So what if she left him. It only meant that he wasn’t able to give her enough trust or love that she needed. He believed once she came back, he’ll give it all back.
Standing before him was none other than Jun Li Na herself. The wish of his heart... His life...
She frowned seeing him with no reaction at all. She definitely wasn’t expecting this at all. She lifted her hand to touch his arm but before she could touch him another voice halted her.
"Hey, JunJun!"
Jun Li Na gave a start and turned to see Azalea running towards them with a huge grin. Not even caring that Jun Li Na was in her way, Azalea straight went to Ye Jun and wrapped him in a bear hug. Ye Jun’s daydreaming came to an end.
"Zelie, when did you get here?" Ye Jun asked in a surprised tone.
Azalea tiptoed to reach his ear and whispered softly, "When you were gawking Jun Li Na."
"You can also see her?" he asked in return making her tap his head. He really thought she was just an illusion that will fade away if he dared to touch her.
"Of course, I can. Get a grip, Jun. It’s not another dream." Azalea answered trying to keep her laughter in control. In the past months, she had been the closest to Ye Jun since she lost the bet and landed herself the role of his secretary.
But working together, they both had grown even more close to each other. And only Azalea could tell how much Ye Jun really missed Jun Li Na. He even saw someone who looked slightly like Jun Li Na and went after her only to be beaten by that woman’s husband. Well, it was one hell of an experience for both Ye Jun and Azalea. A lesson was definitely learned.
Pulling away from him, she winked and said, "Since you texted me and asked so nicely, I brought a doughnut and milk tea for you."
"What’s in the other bag?" Ye Jun asked hooking his arm with Azalea and walking back inside, not even sparing Jun Li Na a single glance. Since she left, he was gonna give her a cold shoulder for a while as well. Why only he suffer? She should know that he wasn’t that easy!
"I got some fritters for Jie-Ge," Azalea responded.
"Well, he definitely needs that."
"Why?"
"He’s in a really bad mood." Ye Jun answered in a knowing way and Azalea nodded along in understanding. Who didn’t know that Jie hated their intrusion in his life? Him being broody was a given. After all, being Zhu Jie brought too many responsibilities for him and he hardly could get a chance to spend some time with Xu Mey even though he wanted to stick to her for every second of the day.
"Oh, it’s really Azalea." Xu Mey’s voice broke Ye Jun and Azalea’s little whispering.
"Sis-in-law, how’s my nephew/niece doing?" Azalea ran up to Xu Mey’s side to ask.
"Nephew/niece?" Xu Mey gave her a raised brow look.
"Well, aren’t we keeping it a mystery? So, I can only say, nephew/niece. At least, until I’m sure of the gender." A round of cheery laughter could be heard in the hall because of Azalea’s words.
"Cough! Cough!"
Jun Li Na had to cough a couple of times to make her presence known since the atmosphere was lively which was unexpected for her.
"Lili? Oh my gosh! When did you come?" Xu Mey was really excited to find Jun Li Na standing at the side.
"I just came. Didn’t even dare to make a stop at home since I had to come to see you ASAP!" Jun Li Na answered hugging Xu Mey well as she could because of Xu Mey’s big belly.
"Come and take a seat." Xu Mey pulled Jun Li Na with her to the couch.
"Jun, where is Kaden?" Azalea asked Ye Jun while Xu Mey frowned.
"How would I know?" Ye Jun responded nonchalantly.
"But he came with me. Didn’t you see him outside?" Azalea asked gingerly while inching away from Xu Mey slowly.
"You left my brother outside?" Not so surprisingly, Xu Mey glared at both Ye Jun and Azalea.
"It’s her fault."
"It’s his fault."
Both Azalea and Ye Jun pointed at each other.
"You distracted me first." Ye Jun blamed her.
"You were lovestruck already by the time I got here, how did I distract you?" Azalea snapped back.
Ye Jie cleared his throat sheepishly but didn’t back down at least not until Xu Mey’s voice rang, "Are you done?"
Both Azalea and Ye Jun gulped looking at her fiery self and nodded before sprinting towards the door to get Xiamu inside.
"How can you forget the one you love?" Ye Jun grumbled while pushing her.
"Well, you are the one who said to keep some distance. Playing hard to get kind of trick or whatever." Azalea retorted.
"Didn’t tell you to completely disregard his existence." Ye Jun glared and her and harrumphed away.
