——Tan Jiao——

I opened my eyes abruptly to find myself lying on my sofa at home.

My brain froze.

I recall hearing the rain tapping away at the window and could even feel the chilliness of a rainy night. However, the familiarity I felt reminded me of where I am—the room, the sofa, and the cupboard.

Zhuang Yu replied, “The identity is not important. The fact is you dreamt about a guy.”

Zhuang Yu continued, “You’re thirsting for some love, virgin Zhu.”
