Chapter 766: Chapter 766: Sweet Dream or Nightmare
“Lin Chuxia, don’t think you can refuse a toast and opt for punishment. With my current status and position, I can have any woman I want, and I can do whatever I want with you. Don’t push me to a corner…”
“President Li, shouldn’t I be the one to tell you that? Do you really think a tiger that doesn’t show its power is a sick cat? Depending on women to climb up, what right do you have to say such things? Today I’ll teach you how to be a man…”
………
“Ah…”
Li Guangyuan suddenly sat up, gasping for breath.
Looking at the blazing sun outside, he felt a chill down his back.
His head felt like it was going to explode.
He had that dream again, the dream that was as vivid as a past life.
These days, every time he was exhausted and closed his eyes, he would dream of those events.
He married Lin Chuxia as his wife, and then the two of them started from scratch, beginning with selling vegetables, gradually growing rich, and becoming famous wealthy entrepreneurs in Ancheng County.
They even expanded the company into the city, and he became the respected President Li.
Those scenes played out like a movie, one after another.
It was a beautiful dream, a dream he never wanted to wake up from.
At first, because of that dream, he even deliberately wore himself out just to immerse himself in it.
Until recently, he kept dreaming about unpleasant things between him and Lin Chuxia.
A perfect woman like Lin Chuxia was unable to have children.
But Lin Chuxia had indeed given birth to a daughter for Qin Yang.
And the man beside him in the dream, for some reason, he could never see his face clearly, but hearing his voice made him shiver.
Just like a moment ago, he seemed to feel that man’s murderous aura rushing at him.
Li Guangyuan touched the spot over his heart, which was still racing.
“Guangyuan, what’s wrong? Did you have a nightmare again?”
Lin Jiayi was outside making breakfast; she came in holding a spatula when she heard the noise.
Seeing Lin Jiayi in front of him, Li Guangyuan felt increasingly detached from reality.
He had also dreamt of Lin Jiayi, who came to his company demanding money from Lin Chuxia.
How ridiculous, that Qin Yang’s wife would come ask his wife for money.
Dream Lin Jiayi was the same, timid and insignificant but pretended to be superior.
Asking for money while trying to act superior, how laughable?
Li Guangyuan found it all absurd, yet he couldn’t laugh at all.
This woman was like this in a past life, and she is still like this now; it’s just that in a past life, she harmed Qin Yang, and in this one, she came to harm him.
If not for her, Lin Chuxia would still be Li Guangyuan’s wife.
Lin Jiayi, seeing Li Guangyuan staring at her without speaking, his eyes heavy and increasingly frightening, asked tremblingly, “What’s wrong with you? Did you have a nightmare? Why don’t you tell me, don’t scare me.”
Clearly terrified, yet speaking with a tone of concern.
Li Guangyuan suddenly chuckled.
“I did have a dream, come over and I’ll tell you about it.”
Lin Jiayi, seeing him showing a smile, sighed quietly with relief, coming forward while saying, “Then hurry up and tell me, there’s still porridge cooking in the pot.”
Even as she said this, she still sat down beside Li Guangyuan.
These days, Li Guangyuan had been cold and distant, although they lived together, he never mentioned remarriage.
Li Guangyuan’s silence left Lin Jiayi feeling uneasy.
Seeing him in a seemingly good mood today, Lin Jiayi began to think.
Once he finished telling the dream, she would properly comfort him whether it was a good or bad dream.
Taking advantage of his good mood, coax him into getting their marriage certificate, then she would feel at ease.
As she thought this, Li Guangyuan began talking about the dream.
“I didn’t have a nightmare; it was a beautiful dream. Do you know, Lin Jiayi? I’ve had this dream many times already, and I’ve been wanting to tell you about it.”
“Really? Then quickly tell me, what was the beautiful dream about,” Lin Jiayi seemed quite interested.
With a gentle ease, Li Guangyuan began, “I dreamt I was married, not to you, but to Lin Chuxia…”
The smile on Lin Jiayi’s face suddenly froze, “Re-really? How could you have such a strange dream?”
“Strange? Back when the matchmaker arranged the proposal, it was clearly for Lin Chuxia. If the switch hadn’t happened midway, my wife would’ve naturally been Lin Chuxia. In the dream, the switch didn’t happen, and I scraped together 300 yuan as a dowry for your Lin Family and brought Lin Chuxia home.
Lin Chuxia was very capable. To pay off debts, she suggested going to the county to sell vegetables. We both got up before dawn, worked all day, and returned home under the stars and moon…”
“Isn’t that just us? Have you been too tired lately? Maybe that’s why you’re dreaming like this.”
Li Guangyuan raised a hand to indicate she shouldn’t interrupt and shook his head.
“No, it’s not us. We don’t have Lin Chuxia’s capabilities. In the dream, we sold vegetables for a year and then opened a Bun Shop, which grew larger and larger. We built a new house and later also opened a food factory. My two sisters found good husbands through Lin Chuxia.”
He looked at Lin Jiayi, eyes full of mockery, “Truly good families, they were all city people, very different from the Zhang Family kind. They were honest working families, my brothers-in-law were all hardworking, family-oriented men. Oh, by the way, in the dream, the Zhang Family wasn’t my sister’s in-laws but Qin Yang’s brother-in-law’s home…”
Lin Jiayi’s vision turned to terror, she suddenly stood up, “There’s still porridge cooking in the kitchen; I’ll check on it…”
“No rush,” Li Guangyuan pulled Lin Jiayi’s arm back, “I’m not finished. How could the Zhang Family be Qin Yang’s brother-in-law’s home? Oh yes, Zhang Wenbin did have a former wife…”
As if just realizing, Lin Jiayi quickly followed his lead, “None of us know who Zhang Wenbin’s ex-wife was. Maybe she is Qin Yang’s sister. Did you hear something that made you dream like this? Quite a coincidence.”
“Coincidence? From what I remember, Li Dongmei was able to marry Zhang Wenbin after getting pregnant out of wedlock because of the help from you as her sister-in-law.”
“I know nothing,” Lin Jiayi immediately denied, “It had nothing to do with me. You know, your sister had her heart set on marrying someone from the city. Whatever was between her and Zhang Wenbin happened right under your nose. I was home with the kids; I wouldn’t know about her and Zhang Wenbin, much less who his ex-wife was.”
Li Guangyuan silently observed her panicked demeanor and ultimately nodded.
“Alright, let’s say you didn’t know anything. Now, let’s continue talking about my dream.”
