CEO's Mistaken Wife

For the past two to three years, Jian Ran's sleeping conditions had not been good, and she would often be surprised by her nightmares, so she slept rather late, hoping to sleep deeper the moment she fell asleep.

However, it was useless. As long as he closed his eyes, he would be haunted by all sorts of nightmares.

Today she dreamed again, of people in white coats holding needles and injecting nameless liquid into her body.

She struggled and resisted, but it was useless. It was as if an invisible net had wrapped around her, and she could only allow herself to be slaughtered by those people.

"Jian Ran!"

In the darkness, a deep voice called her name. It was a very familiar yet very distant male voice.

As the voice sounded, a black figure walked towards her. As the black figure got closer, she wanted to stretch out her hand and grab him, but just as she was about to grab the black figure, the person wearing a white gown forcefully dragged her away.

Jian Ran struggled and shouted, "No, no —"

Right when she was at her most helpless, the phone beside her rang loudly, like a heavenly bell, pulling her out of a nightmare.

Jian Ran gasped for breath, the frightened her wiped the sweat off her forehead, and touched her phone to answer the call: "Hello?"

Her voice was still trembling, uncontrollable.

She didn't see who was calling, but she felt that the call had come at the perfect time, pulling her out of the nightmare.

"Jian Ran, I am Qin Yue."

The man's deep voice came through the receiver with a comforting quality to it.

Jian Ran vaguely remembered a few days ago when she had a nightmare and it was also because of Qin Yue's timely call to pull her out of it. It was as if he had always known her situation.

Why on earth did he always show up when she needed him?

He clearly knew that in the eyes of that man, he was just a substitute for his ex-wife … But, hearing his deep, cello like voice, she could not help but feel a sense of relief, as if the dark night had a light, as if the cold winter had a warm embrace.

She took a deep breath and tried to use a calm tone to speak to him. She didn't know why she didn't want the man to see through her thoughts. "It's so late. What's the matter?"

"I suddenly want to hear your voice, so I called you." the man said, his voice soft and almost perfect. "I didn't bother you, did I?"

"None …" It was now 2 in the morning. The world was dark and quiet, and all sounds became very clear, just like the man's steady breathing on the other side of the phone.

Jian Ran suddenly wanted to laugh. In this kind of place, where it was midnight, he decided not to sleep and just called her … Was it a coincidence, or did he really know she was having a nightmare?

"Qin Yue," she could not help but call out to him.

"I'm here." The other party replied with a hint of determination.

Jian Ran sat on the bed and raised her head slightly. Looking at the pitch-black sky, she couldn't help but curl her lips, "Are you monitoring me? Why are you always appearing so promptly?"

Her tone was brisk, charming, and mischievous.

But what she did not know was that her words caused Qin Yue's heart to sink.

He had indeed been watching her. A few days earlier, he had discovered that she had nightmares, and although he knew that it was easy to make suspicious calls in the middle of the night, he had been unable to stop himself from calling her.

Even if I can't embrace you and drive away the darkness for you, I hope that I can let you have a moment of peace through the sea of millions of people.

But, ah, I wish I could return to you as soon as possible.

Thinking to this, Qin Yue couldn't help but curl his lips in a smile in the darkness with a hint of helplessness and love. He said softly, "That's right, I have been monitoring you from the past to the future. Miss Jian, are you trying to catch me? "

"You want to catch me?"

Now, it was Jian Ran's turn to be stunned. The man's words were half true and half false, it was unknown whether she was really monitoring them or not … Or some other kind of surveillance. And grab... No matter how you listened to it, it was filled with other meanings!

In the darkness, Jian Ran couldn't help but hug the pillow tightly and bite her lips.

He gritted his teeth and was filled with anger.

However, Jian Ran knew very clearly that in the darkness, her face was red like a rainbow.

The other person didn't respond.

Jian Ran didn't know why, but she was suddenly a little nervous. She couldn't help but bury her face in the soft pillow, her heart pounding like thunder.

"Good …"

After a long, long time, this simple syllable came from the other end of the phone.

Jian Ran was startled.

"Wait for me." The other man said again, unwaveringly.

Then the phone went dead.

Jian Ran suddenly let go of the phone as if a heavy burden had been lifted. Then she buried her face deep in the pillow and, softly, let out a "En".

She waited for him, but this time, the sound was lost in the pillow, disappearing into the darkness.

Without Qin Yue's voice in his ears, that loneliness seemed to have started wandering around Jian Ran again. It was as if the moment she closed her eyes, she would be engulfed once more.

Worried that she would be surrounded by nightmares if she fell asleep again, Jian Ran hugged her pillow, and stared at the pitch black night sky with her eyes wide open, trying her best to not let herself fall asleep.

She tried to recall the dream she had just had, but her mind was blank, as if that dream had never even existed.

After an unknown period of time, as if not much time, as if a very long time, the phone by the bedside rang again.

This time, Jian Ran saw it clearly, the phone showed the two words "Qin Yue".

What's the matter with him?

Carrying these questions, Jian Ran's fingertip moved forward as she answered: "Mr. Qin?"

"Did you sleep?" The man's gentle voice reached her ears, and she shook her head instinctively. Then she heard him say, "I'm downstairs in your house."

Jian Ran was slightly startled, she immediately got down from the bed and walked to the balcony. Looking around, she saw Qin Yue wearing a white shirt standing straight under the street light in the residential area.

He looked up, his lips curled up as he waved at her. "Miss Jian, would you like to come down and walk with me?"

In the middle of the night, Jian Ran had never thought about going out with a man she was not really familiar with. At this moment, she did not hesitate at all: "Alright, wait for me for a while."

After hanging up, Jian Ran returned to her room, turned on the light and walked to the wardrobe, but did not know which clothes to wear.

Usually she wore casual casual clothes, her work clothes, and there was no dress in the closet.

After looking around, Jian Ran still couldn't find anything satisfactory, so she finally wore a white shirt along with a pair of jeans.

She quietly went out, hoping that her father would not notice, but she did not know that Jian Zhengtian had long since witnessed her every move.
