Do Not Speak Ill of My Mother!

Chapter 322: Just dreaming

Dreams, the more one yearns for them, the more unattainable they seem.

The Power Holder’s indulgence always filled Qin Youran with hope for the future.

Yet the alienation of reality always left her feeling anxious and uneasy.

Unable to find what she sought, she could only harbor unrealistic dreams and weave everything into the sweetest image in her mind, placating her fans by writing them into romance novels.

Unfortunately, the illusion of sweetness could foster the darkest of hearts. She was left to struggle with her pain day after day...

Yan Yueqing agreed with Jun Lii’s statement and quietly breathed a sigh of relief.

He was right.

How could someone in power be so easily charmed by a stranger? And to offer a marriage contract as a pretense?

Thinking about it, Qin Youran must have some ulterior motive for using the treasure to get into the Jun Residence.

Perhaps Jun Lii kept her by his side to investigate the truth?

As for what that truth was? Yan Yueqing had no idea.

But it was certainly better than a marriage contract.

Seeing Yueqing’s expression relax, Jun Lii reassured, "In the Jun Residence, neither Xiao Yan nor I will be tied down by something like a contractual marriage."

Did she think she was worried about Yan Bao’s future situation?

Yan Yueqing smiled and lowered her lashes. "Mr. Jun, I’ve read a book. The people and things in it are very foreign to me, and I find it hard to empathize with them... but one day, I suddenly met the characters from the book."

Jun Lii’s heart tightened.

Ah Xing’s manner of speaking was both detached, as if the matter didn’t concern her, and troubled, as if she had been forcibly dragged into the situation.

What exactly was causing her such conflict?

He listened patiently.

"Because of the scenarios described in the book, I had preset notions about the people I saw before my eyes, even though I was told the book was just a reference and they were all real people! It was really hard for me to treat them with an ordinary mindset..."

It wasn’t until now that Yan Yueqing fully grasped the words once spoken by the system.

Her memory was flawed, but the system knew something about the future, although it rarely spoke of what the future would be like.

The reason was simple.

The past is silent, the future is changeable.

The words of the system would be engraved in the depths of her heart, like an authoritative proof.

Anything or anyone that differed from the book left her feeling lost and uncertain—who was real and who was fake?

Yan Yueqing knew that someone had gone to great lengths to bring her back from Another World...

As for the rest?

If her memory could be restored, let it be restored. If it could not awaken, then she would start anew from being strangers.

Being deeply immersed in a book would only trap her in a vicious cycle of trying to confirm or refute the storyline.

It was far removed from the purpose of her return.

Having thought this through, Yan Yueqing said with relief, "I say this because I had learned about Mr. Jun from certain sources in the past... That’s why I was indifferent and somewhat confrontational from the beginning. I truly apologize..."

Jun Lii instinctively felt that this source must be Jun Yan.

Both were gems on his heart, how could he be angry or reprimand them?

He smiled helplessly, "It’s okay."

Yan Yueqing extended her hand toward him, "Then, let’s get to know each other again! Mr. Jun, my name is Yan Yueqing, you can call me Yueqing."

The unexpected turn of events dispelled Jun Lii’s gloominess.

A smile spread across his face, brimming with vigor.

"My name is Jun Lii... you can call me whatever you like."

One hand with distinct bones, the other soft as if boneless, gently clasped together.

It seemed as though all the beauty of the world was to be hidden and held within the palms of their hands.

The two exchanged a smile, and the scene was bathed in the most dazzling sunlight, a beauty that delighted the heart and pleased the soul.

Having dealt with Qin Youran’s issues and come to an understanding about Jun Lii, Yan Yueqing was in an excellent mood. After discussing the items to bring with him, she took the two children and boarded the private plane of the Jun Residence, heading to Country T.
