Xue Xingyao had a dream about Shen Mingji, but she didn't mention it to anyone.
She also made herself forget everything from the dream.
There was never any possibility between her and Shen Mingji. They hadn't seen each other in years and were strangers now. There was no reason for them to get entangled.
It would be truly ridiculous to let a single dream throw her heart into disarray.
As she always did, Xue Xingyao rose early to have a meal with her mother.
Now that she was free of responsibilities, she wanted to spend more time with her mother.
Otherwise, once she found a new post, she would have less time at home. Even having a single meal with her mother would require careful scheduling.
Xue Xingyao hadn't slept well. At first glance, she looked no different than usual, but Mrs. Xue noticed the weariness in her eyes.
"Something on your mind?" Mrs. Xue asked.
"Perhaps it's just the change of location," Xue Xingyao said. "I haven't been sleeping soundly."
