Rebirth: What to do if you fall into a wolf's den

The silent night was like an endless black silk covering the entire city. Under this silk, Ji Yan was lying on the soft big bed, her brows furrowed, as if she was troubled by some nightmare.

"No, no!" Ji Yan whispered in her sleep, her face full of fear and struggle. In her mind, the past scenes that she didn't want to recall were replayed quickly like a movie. Those pictures in the dark night and the pains she had experienced were like sharp blades, ruthlessly cutting her heart.

She struggled, trying to break free from this nightmare, but no matter how hard she tried, it seemed to be in vain. She felt as if she was being tightly strangled by a pair of invisible hands, unable to breathe or move.

Just when Ji Yan thought she was about to be swallowed by this nightmare, a blurry scene suddenly appeared in front of her eyes. She saw herself standing in front of the five men, their faces full of sneers and ridicule. Then, she saw her parents, who were suffering unspeakable pain. And those who had helped her were also implicated in this disaster.

"No, this is not true!" Ji Yan exclaimed in her dream, her voice full of despair and helplessness.

Suddenly, Ji Yan woke up from her dream. She sat up suddenly, breathing rapidly, and her forehead was covered with cold sweat. She looked around and found herself still in the bedroom of the apartment. It was quiet all around, with only her own heartbeat echoing in her ears.

She stroked her chest with her hand, trying to calm her pounding heart. Recalling everything in her dream, her heart was filled with confusion and fear. She didn't know how she should deal with this situation, and she didn't know if she could escape the tragic ending.

"What should I do?" Ji Yan murmured to herself, with a determined light in her eyes. She knew that she couldn't just sit there and wait for death, she had to find a way to prevent the tragedy in her dream from happening.

……

Last night, Ji Yan was disturbed by a nightmare. The scene in the dream made her uneasy and she couldn't sleep peacefully all night. Although the morning sunlight was soft, it didn't bring much warmth to Ji Yan's pale and tired face. She got up listlessly, feeling depressed as if she was shrouded by dark clouds.

Today, Fu Jingyan specially took time to accompany Ji Yan. As soon as he entered the door, he keenly noticed Ji Yan's abnormality. Her eyes were swollen, and her eyes revealed a trace of fatigue and uneasiness. Fu Jingyan's heart tightened, but he did not ask the reason directly, because he knew that sometimes, giving Ji Yan some space and time to let her adjust herself is the best way.

"Yan Yan, do you want to go out for a walk today?" Fu Jingyan asked softly, trying to divert Ji Yan's attention with a light topic.

Ji Yan originally wanted to refuse. She just wanted to stay at home alone and have a good rest. But looking at Fu Jingyan's concerned eyes, she knew she couldn't refuse. So she nodded and forced a smile.

The two went out together. Fu Jingyan carefully opened the door for Ji Yan and naturally fastened her seat belt. When he leaned down, Ji Yan smelled a cool fragrance, which made her feel a little dazed. She raised her head and looked at Fu Jingyan's focused profile, and an inexplicable emotion surged in her heart.

"Yanyan, where do you want to go?" Fu Jingyan asked.

Ji Yan hesitated for a moment, then said softly: "Well... let's go to Longyuezhai."

Fu Jingyan raised his eyebrows slightly, seeming a little surprised. Ji Yan noticed the change in his expression and felt a little uneasy. Could it be that Longyuezhai was also related to those five people?

Sure enough, Fu Jingyan nodded and said, "Longyuezhai was opened by Axu."

Ji Yan sighed helplessly, feeling as if she was being sucked into a vortex from which she could not escape. She smiled bitterly and said, "What on earth is there that you didn't drive?"

Fu Jingyan thought for a moment and replied, "A lot, like convenience stores, small restaurants and the like."

Ji Yan curled her lips and said, "Then I am hooking up with a rich man, right?"

Fu Jingyan laughed loudly, with a warm light in his eyes. "That's right, Yanyan, you have to treat us well."

"I have a lot of money myself, and my designs are also very valuable." There was a hint of provocation and dissatisfaction in Ji Yan's tone. She would not allow anyone to underestimate her efforts and talent.

Fu Jingyan stopped the car, turned his head and looked at Ji Yan, with a fox-like smile on his face. His voice was full of teasing: "Oh! When will Yanyan design something for us?"

Ji Yan rolled her eyes secretly. She was used to Fu Jingyan's teasing. She opened the door and stepped out of the car, only to find that Fu Jingyan was leaning against the side, waiting for her arrival.

"You... let's see how you perform!" Ji Yan raised her chin and deliberately kept it a secret, "If I'm happy today, I'll design something for you."

Fu Jingyan didn't care. He stretched out his hand and said with a smile, "I can wait on the side. You can take your time shopping. I'm free all day today."

Ji Yan looked at him, her heart slightly moved. She felt Fu Jingyan's warm palm tightly holding her hand, which was a feeling she had never experienced before, and her heartbeat seemed to pause slightly. She subconsciously held his hand in return, and the two held hands tightly, as if there was a wonderful electric current passing between them.
