The manâs voice had a noble texture, magnetic and deep, like a male sea demon from myth and legend. Especially with the last ambiguous question and the slightly raised tone, it was enough to make oneâs heart stop.
Even though Ye Ling was in a dream, she still felt her face warming up. n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
She was flustered. Looking at the manâs questioning eyes that had a trace of hurt, she felt that she was a bad woman!
Ye Ling opened her mouth, but her voice was dry. âNo, you misunderstoodâ¦â
Before Ye Ling could finish explaining, the distance between them instantly closed. Ye Ling suddenly felt a soft sensation on her lips.
At the same time, the dreamâs scenery changed. The air became thinner, and the sound of water could be heard.
Ye Ling wanted to resist, but Min Nan held her. She tried to open her mouth to breathe and shout, but the manâs tongue took the opportunity to exploreâ¦
The surroundings turned into the underwater depths, and water pressure pushed from all directions. Min Nan kissed Ye Ling as they floated upwards. Ye Ling was enveloped in the manâs breath, feeling dizzy and trembling.
In the darkness, Ye Lingâs eyes widened as she sat up from her bed.
Kissed? Ye Ling touched her cheek. It was incredibly hot!
Why did she have such a dream? Ye Lingâs throat was dry. She quickly got out of bed, poured a glass of water, and drank it in one gulp.
Sigh, it seemed she wasnât suited to telling lies. She had only mentioned it during the day, and now she had this dream at night.
Ye Ling touched her lips absentmindedly as if she could still recall the feeling of Min Nan gently biting her lips. Her ears turned even redder in an instant, and she hurriedly put her hand down.
Ye Ling shook her head vigorously, trying to force herself to forget this strange dream. But it was peculiar. In the past, she quickly forgot her dreams, but this one, she desperately wanted to forget, yet the details of the dream became clearer and clearer.
At the same time, Ye Ling felt that something was off about this dream, but she couldnât pinpoint what exactly.
It was almost dawn, and Ye Ling couldnât fall asleep. She went to the small world to read some medical books, memorizing the growth characteristics and effects of more than ten rare herbs.
After waking up, Ye Ling met Min Nan in the living room. She couldnât even bring herself to look Min Nan in the eye, let alone talk to him.
Ye Lingâs unusual behavior confused Min Nan, but Min Nan had his matters to attend to and couldnât dwell on them. After breakfast, he left.
Ye Ling found an excuse to leave the Wan family and set off for town.
When she arrived at the black market, she saw Yang Zi again. Yang Zi also spotted Ye Ling, who was wearing a bamboo hat.
Yang Zi approached with a smiling face. âMr. Ling, itâs been a while since weâve seen you. Are you here to sell herbs this time?â
Ye Ling nodded.
Mr. Ling was the name she had casually made up for herself.
âDo you remember the way?â Yang Zi asked eagerly.
Ye Ling nodded again, and Yang Zi seemed a bit disappointed. âAlright, then you can go there by yourself.â
Ye Ling passed by Yang Zi, thinking that it wasnât ideal to keep pretending to be mute. It made communication quite inconvenient.
She remembered seeing a folk artist at a temple fair in her previous life who could imitate various animal sounds and change her voice. Children, the elderly, women, young girls, there were hardly any sounds he couldnât mimic.
It would be great if she could change her voice too. She could find time to study it.
Ye Ling arrived at the medical shop and sold some herbs. Before leaving, she was stopped by the young man guarding the shop. Mai Zi hesitated for a moment and said, âMy boss is very interested in your herbs. He told me that if you come to sell herbs next time, he wants me to tell you. He wants to meet you.â
Ye Ling frowned. Meet? Why did he want to meet her?
Seeing Ye Lingâs silence, Mai Zi hurriedly explained, âOf course, the boss also said that if youâre unwilling, then forget it. In the future, weâll still conduct business as usual. But the boss said he wants to discuss some business matters with you. He has no ill intentions.â
Ye Ling pondered for a moment before writing a line of words on the paper.
Ye Ling was quite content with the purchase price offered by this shop, so she didnât want to offend the shop owner. However, she didnât know what kind of person the boss was, so she didnât plan to meet him for the time being. It wouldnât be too late to have a detailed conversation once she confirmed his intentions.
After leaving the shop, Ye Ling went to other stalls in the black market to buy some things, and then she brought these items back to her rented house..
