She retracted her thoughts and recalled the purpose of their call.

Coincidentally, Lu Qi also said, “Oh yes, about the furniture, you have classes from Monday to Friday, and you should be available on Saturday and Sunday. Since I don’t work on Saturday and Sunday, why don’t you come with me to pick some? I’m not too familiar with the west side of the city.”

Going with him to pick some?

Cheng Ling was stunned for a moment. Did it seem to have deviated from the original plan?

“What’s the matter? Is it not convenient?”

“No, then let’s do it on Saturday or Sunday. Just set a time and let me know.”

“Okay, then I’ll inform you by text. I heard from Lu Dong that there was a little episode at your house this morning?”

She was not surprised that Lu Dong would tell Lu Qi about this.

It was just a little funny to hear Lu Qi define it as a “little episode”.

“It’s not a big deal. It’s been resolved.”

When Lu Qi saw the text Lu Dong sent to him this morning, he was initially a little nervous. However, when he saw that Cheng Ling was dealing with it at ease and did not let others bully her, he felt a little relieved.

“Okay, in the future if you encounter anything that you can’t resolve, if I’m not by your side, you can tell Lu Dong.”

Cheng Ling felt what Lu Qi said was a little strange. Although he was Cheng Ling’s patient, the two of them did not have any other relationship apart from that.

If Cheng Ling was in trouble, she would not be in the position to ask Lu Qi for help.

She didn’t know why, but from the first time they met, she felt that Lu Qi’s attitude towards her was way far different from his attitude towards others.

A dignified young master of the Lu Group actually believed in her medical skills so easily. Moreover, he always protected her and didn’t hesitate to go against others.

Were they known to each other before?

Cheng Ling recalled the first time she met Lu Qi at the Cheng family’s banquet. She suddenly felt a familiar feeling.

However, she couldn’t recall anything from that familiar feeling.

“Cheng Ling, are you still there?”

“Oh, I’m sorry. I was distracted just now.”

Lu Qi could hear that Cheng Ling’s tone seemed to have changed slightly.

“Okay, then you should rest early. It’s very late now. You still have class tomorrow.”

“Okay, goodnight. You should rest early, too.”

“Okay, goodnight.”

After hanging up the phone, Cheng Ling received a WeChat transfer from Lu Qi the next second.

100 yuan.

Cheng Ling smiled and accepted it without hesitation.

Today was considered a smooth day. After hanging up the phone with Lu Qi, Cheng Ling turned off her phone and lay on the bed.

However, the time after falling asleep was not as smooth as during the day.

At night, Cheng Ling dreamed of the couple she saw in the dream yesterday.

In the dream, the place had changed. This time, they were not in a valley full of peach trees, but in a house.

It was a stone house. The house was made of many rectangular stones. It was very sturdy and the interior of the house was very simple. It looked like it had just been built not long ago.

In the dream, Cheng Ling was sitting on the floor playing with a doll. The couples were studying something at the table.

Everything looked peaceful.

It was not until the sound of a gunshot came from outside.

“They are chasing us. Let’s run!”

The man was very fast. He picked up Cheng Ling and the three of them immediately ran out.

They ran out from the side door. After running for a few meters, they were discovered by some men in black.

These men in black raised their guns at them. Cheng Ling watched helplessly as a bullet was shot out from the gun.

Her whole body twitched on the bed. Cheng Ling woke up again.

Cold sweat covered her forehead. Even the pillow was soaked wet by her cold sweat.

Her heart was beating fast and hard. For a moment, Cheng Ling felt that her heart was about to jump out.

She propped herself up and sat up with her back against the headboard.

Who were these two people? Why did she keep dreaming about them?

But everything in the dream was so real. Could these two really be Cheng Ling’s parents?

In a short dream, Cheng Ling’s pajamas were soaked wet in a cold sweat. She felt very uncomfortable. She picked up a new set of pajamas and walked to the bathroom, intending to take another shower.

Water splashed down from the shower. Cheng Ling poured a handful of water on her face.

The moment she closed her eyes, she recalled the dream she had just had.

The two people that she called Dad and Mom and the bullet that was shooting at them.

Since Cheng Ling started to have memory, she did not remember her parents.

When she was young, she had asked Xie Ying about other children who had mothers.

However, Xie Ying answered that Cheng Ling was an orphan when she adopted Cheng Ling.

Other than a USB flash drive in her swaddling clothes, there was nothing else.

As Cheng Ling failed to get any information from Xie Ying, she gave up..
