So what if I'm a top E? I still have to be a pampered wife.

Shen Jin hired hundreds of search and rescue teams from different countries to conduct a blanket search around the sea area with the island as the center. Not even a single hair was spared.

Even after being advised that it would be a futile effort to find a needle in the haystack, he still forcefully used a large amount of resources to search and rescue.

But the result was within everyone's expectations.

After a week, Shen Jinnian found nothing.

What's even more terrible is that Gu Yan was not found, but Shen Jinnian's body, which had been tense for a long time, collapsed silently one night.

He was unconscious until the next morning.

Only then did Shen Huaili discover the abnormality.

The doctor diagnosed him twice. The first time was due to retching and drowsiness caused by the secondary growth of Alpha's uterine cavity after being marked. The second time was due to his long-term overexertion of energy and difficulty sleeping and eating, which led to severe gastritis.

Shen Jinnian had to take a rest this time.

He was forcibly confined to the hospital bed and rested with water for the entire day.

In fact, there is no need to imprison.

Shen Jinnian used to sleep at least twelve hours a day when she lived with Gu Yan, but now she sleeps less than two hours a day.

The mental deprivation caused by lack of rest allowed him to sleep for more than twenty hours without any sign of waking up.

Shen Huaili was really worried that he would fall into coma for the second time.

When Shen Jinnian slept for the 30th hour in a row, Shen Huaili couldn't control his random thoughts, but he could only visit his pale and thin brother through the video screen of his mobile phone: "Jinnian?"

The sound penetrated the dreamland dimly, as if floating from the distant horizon.

Shen Jinnian heard it.

But his whole body was as stiff as cement.

Even though I tried my best, I couldn't move at all.

Even though he didn't respond at all, someone was still calling his name persistently in his ears. He was awake enough to recognize that the voices and titles around him were changing again and again——

"Every year."

"Jinnian."

"elder brother?"

As the sun and moon change, he is trapped in a dream. After each person's voice appears, matching pictures will appear in his dream, replaying the past forcibly like a revolving lantern.

I also dreamed about Gu Yan.

From when he was six years old, he fell into a quagmire to save a kitten, and in a blink of an eye, he met Gu Yan on the first day of school. Later, they were tit-for-tat and slept together in the same bed.

Finally, Gu Yan asked him if he wanted to get married.

Shen Jinnian handed his hand to Gu Yan and asked the man to put a ring on his ring finger.

He took the initiative to throw himself into Gu Yan's arms and said, "I do."

The man held his back, rested his chin on his shoulder, and said in a gentle voice, "I am willing too, Xiaobao."

Shen Jinnian was immersed in these pictures that he had never experienced in reality. When they were displayed in front of his eyes, it seemed that the speed was turned on at 0.5 times. Every frame was like a treasure that he could not help but cherish and experience.

Sudden--

Shen Jinnian's wrist was grasped by a pair of broad and powerful hands, and he involuntarily turned sideways to see who was behind him.

Unexpectedly, he saw a face that looked exactly like Gu Yan's.

The man was very urgent, and the palms holding him were trembling: "Xiaobao, come with me..."

"This is just a fantasy scenario."

"You will never wake up if you are immersed in a nightmare."

"Xiaobao!"

The sounds in his ears became increasingly blurry, and there seemed to be a huge whirlpool in the void, swallowing up both Gu Yan, followed by the ring on his hand, the auditorium beside him... Soon after, the people around Shen Jinnian Everything disappeared without a trace.

He was the only one left in the lonely dreamland.

"Xiaobao, wake up."

This time the voice was not distant, as if Gu Yan was close to his ear, and he could even feel the man's warm breath.

"PaPa!"

The fear and grievance in Shen Maidong's cry were intertwined, and the strong fear contained in the child's cry seemed to go back to the day when he first met Maidong.

Shen Jinnian was slightly startled.

The time in the dream stopped at this moment, the remaining snow melted, the dead trees bloomed, and all the imprisonment on his body was instantly annihilated in the black void.

The soft footsteps in my ears became clearer and clearer, the air in front of my nose began to liven up, the familiar smell of cedar filled my nasal cavity, and my tense spirit gradually calmed down.

He struggled to wake up from his dream.

I had been shrouded in the darkness of my dream for too long, and when I suddenly faced the sun, my eyes hurt so much that tears burst out of my eyes, hanging precariously in the corners of my eyes.

Shen Jinnian ignored the discomfort in his eyes and immediately woke up. Through the tears in his eyes, he hurriedly looked around for Gu Yan's figure. He fully expected that the man would be sitting beside the bed unharmed as usual. Stir in juice.

but.

He rubbed his eyes and checked them several times in disbelief.

But the ending is still the same.

Without Gu Yan, there would be no Ophiopogon japonicus.

The scene in the dream is just a dream no matter how real it is.

Shen Cong'an and Zheng Miao quickly put down what they were doing and gathered around the hospital bed. Seeing that Shen Jinnian's face was even paler than before, the old man was so frightened that he didn't know what to do. After a while, he pressed the call bell to inform the doctor: "Nian Jinnian" What's wrong with Nian? Why did you suddenly sit up? You're still very weak, so why don't you just lie down and rest?"

Shen Jinnian looked at his parents with sad faces, and the sun's rays made their white hair dazzling.

After a long time, he shook his head. His throat was hoarse and painful after not drinking water for a few days: "It's okay, I had a nightmare."

Mother Shen sat on the edge of the bed and placed the apple she had just peeled and cut into small pieces on the locker beside the bed: "Mom cut the apple. The doctor said it is good for the stomach and makes you feel good after eating it. You can eat a little to comfort yourself." Pad, belly.”

"That's right." After saying that, he quickly stood up and went to the tea bar to pour warm water for Shen Jinnian: "You have been sleeping for three days. Are you thirsty? Mom will pour you some water."

"Don't be so busy, Mom, I'll drink it myself later."

Shen Jinnian's full of hope was drained away, and she was as listless as an eggplant beaten by frost.

Not only did he have no intention of eating or drinking, but even the energy to sit up disappeared in an instant.

Shen Jinnian just wanted to lie down and take a breath.

The door of the ward was pushed open from the outside by the attending doctor, followed by three or five nurses who were taking care of Shen Jinnian.

When the man came in and saw that he was awake and sitting up on his own, the solemn expression on his face relaxed instantly: "Hi, how are you feeling now?"

Shen Jinnian nodded: "I'm fine."

The doctor glanced at the nurses behind him and signaled for a basic examination.

Fortunately, the test results were good, and the blood pressure, heart rate, and body temperature were all within the normal range.

The doctor smiled and said to him: "Fortunately you are awake, otherwise your friends would be too worried to sleep well today."

The words fell.

He took out another watch from his pocket and handed it to Shen Jinnian: "I almost forgot, someone asked me to bring this to you."

Shen Jinnian's pupils trembled slightly.

He held the watch he had given to Lu Siming that day tightly in his palm, breathing a little uneasily.

Ask one word at a time: "Where is he?"
