Wen Xinya agreed to meet Ye Feiyu at a cafe near school. However, Ye Feiyu informed her that she would be late because of something that had cropped up at the last minute. Hence, Wen Xinya decided to observe the cafe out of boredom.

The decor of the cafe was vintage and classy, with exquisite mahogany furniture that exuded an elegant and leisurely vibe. There was a partition in between every seat and on top of every partition, there were pots of plans and beautiful vines which cascaded down the partition.

At this timing, there were not too many patrons at the cafe, apart from two couples publicly showing their affection for each other. There was also another couple on the verge of a breakup. The girl was extremely agitated and emotional, so much that she splashed a cup of coffee on the man’s face, causing him to appear awkward, embarrassed and guilty.

There were people from all walks of life in the cafe. It was a place of meetings, partings, beginnings, and endings.

Wen Xinya placed one hand on her face and cocked her head towards the side while enjoying the drama going on around her.

At this moment, a leggy woman who was dressed in white casual pants and a pair of white and blue ankle boots that were from the latest season strutted towards her gracefully with poise. The heels of her boots produced loud and crisp sounds when they came into contact with the ground.

Wen Xinya was snapped out of her mood for gossiping.

Wen Xinya watched as she took a seat in front of her without showing any politeness.

“Wen Xinya!” exclaimed a tender voice.

Wen Xinya raised her head slowly to see that it was Xia Ruya. She said coldly, “Miss Xia, you might have gotten the wrong idea. I’m not here to see you, and that seat you’re in is not meant for you either. Please don’t take a seat presumptuously. That’s a bad habit.”

If I’m not wrong, Xia Ruya should be here to collect her withdrawal notice. Shouldn’t she be preparing to leave Harbor City? Yet, she’s still so free to come look for me. How surprising.

Xia Ruya leaned back against the seat gracefully, as if she was seated opposite a friend whom she had been close to for ten years. “I’ve booked an air ticket back to Harbor City and my flight is scheduled for 10 AM tomorrow. I have some things to say to you, I won’t take up too much of your time. You don’t have to be sarcastic with me.”

Actually, she decided to look Wen Xinya up, only because she chanced upon her when she was at Capital University today. Since she would be returning to Harbor City soon, she suddenly felt that she had a few words to say to her.

Wen Xinya raised her brows and asked, “Why must I listen to you?”

Xia Ruya has something to say to me? She obviously wants to provoke me. She must be too full and free. Why should I listen to what she has to say and end up making myself upset?

Xia Ruya must be out of her mind to think that we can have a peaceful conversation with each other.

Xia Ruya stared at Wen Xinya, who was smiling peculiarly. “I had a dream last night. It was interesting and you were in it.”

Xia Ruya did not reveal any more details. Instead, she simply stared at Wen Xinya mysteriously, seemingly waiting to hear Wen Xinya ask about it.

However, Wen Xinya disappointed her, for she did not show any interest in the dream at all. Instead, she retrieved her notes from her backpack and began reading through them while making annotations here and there.

The bright rays of the sun shone through the window and were cast on her face, highlighting the beauty of her face.

Her ravishing good looks were truly enviable.

The thought of the dream made Xia Ruya smile maliciously. She continued, “I dreamed that you got addicted to drugs and you kneeled down beside Aunt Ning and me with tears in your eyes and mucus dripping from your nostrils. You were begging us to give you money for drugs and you even crawled and barked like a dog. In fact, you even licked our soles.”

The dream was so realistic that it gave her the illusion of it being real. Xia Ruya was so immersed in the dream that she did not wish to wake up at all. She was beyond thrilled to be able to openly mock, shame, insult and humiliate Wen Xinya. She felt that Wen Xinya ought to be in the disgusting and filthy state that she had dreamed about.

Wen Xinya’s heart wrenched up and she tightened her grip on her glass. “That’s just a dream. I’m sure you know that I’ll never end up in such a sorry plight in real life. Miss Xia, you actually hate me to the extent of taking revenge on me even in your dreams.”

She was suddenly caught off guard by an image of her previous lifetime which popped up in her head out of nowhere. She would never be able to forget how agonized she felt.

It was then, that she decided to kick her drug addiction.

She suddenly cleared her thoughts, feeling as if a pair of hands was squeezing her heart, making it difficult for her to breathe.

She was reminded of Xu Zhenyu who had also found out some bits and pieces of her previous lifetime through his dreams. Could it be the same for Xia Ruya?

She quickly dismissed those thoughts.

How could there be such a coincidence in this world?

However, she was not that confident either.

If that could happen to Xu Zhenyu, why couldn’t it happen to Xia Ruya too?

She was extremely troubled, despite knowing that it was just Xia Ruya’s dream. Who would guess that those were events that took place in the previous lifetime? There’s nothing for me to worry about at all.

Despite reassuring herself, she still found it hard to accept.

Xia Ruya said, “You’re right, but… I felt that the way that you were in my dream, should be the way you are now.”

She had that dream on the day that she met Ning Yuya. Back then, she felt that the person being addicted to drugs should have been Wen Xinya. She felt extremely tempted after imagining how pathetic Wen Xinya would look after becoming a drug addict.

She knew that her dream was the result of the thoughts that she had in the day.

Wen Xinya said, “It’s such a pity. Sorry to disappoint you, but that’s not how I am now and I never will be that way either. Miss Xia, you’re done with what you have to say, aren’t you? Please excuse yourself. My friend will be arriving soon.”

Wen Xinya carefully observed Xia Ruya’s expressions and deduced that Xia Ruya only had those dreams because of how much she obsessed over resenting her.

Just as Xia Ruya was about to say something, she caught sight of Ye Feiyu crossing the road and making her way to the cafe. She stood up and exclaimed, “Wen Xinya, we’ll meet again!”
