"I had a dream that I saved Li Yunzheng's life. Because I saved him, he forced me to stay with him regardless of my resistance."
"I wanted to leave him, but he used various means to control me. He even imprisoned me at home for a while, chained my feet with an iron chain, and locked me up for a whole year..."
"I'm like a bird in a cage, without any freedom. No matter where I escape, he will find me. Just like the monkey can't escape from Tathagata's Five Finger Mountain, I can't escape from his grasp..."
"I was tortured by him day by day, and I was exhausted physically and mentally. On the tenth year of my acquaintance with him, I was tired, gave up running, and planned to spend my life as a walking zombie. I suddenly died..."
"I was poisoned to death. My soul could not rest in peace after death. Following Li Yunzheng, he used various methods to investigate the cause of my death. Only then did I know that I had been poisoned..."
"But I woke up from my dream before I knew who poisoned me."
Gu Mingyan briefly told Li Minglang what happened between her and Li Yunzheng in her previous life.
"After I woke up, in order to prevent those things in the dream from happening again, I decided to keep a distance from him."
"It's a good idea for a woman to dress up as a man. If he doesn't know my true gender, he won't have any thoughts about me, and he won't keep me by his side. We won't torture each other."
Having said this, Gu Mingyan paused for a few seconds and looked up: "So I don't want anyone to know my true gender, and I also want to ask my second brother to help me conceal my identity."
The matter of rebirth was too ridiculous. Gu Mingyan thought about it and decided to use a dream as an excuse.
She thought Li Minglang would accept it faster if she explained it in a dream.
But after she finished speaking, Li Minglang remained silent.
The expression on his face also changed from stunned to serious.
The last frown never relaxed.
Gu Mingyan looked at him anxiously.
Will he believe it...
After a long time, Li Mingliang finally spoke.
He asked seriously: "Gu Mingyan, are you treating me like a monkey?"
Gu Mingyan: "..."
Well, he didn't believe it.
Gu Mingyan was a little frustrated: "I told you a long time ago, you won't believe it."
"It's not that I don't believe it, it's just that what you said is too ridiculous. It's not a dream. How can things that happen in a dream be taken seriously?" Li Minglang sneered.
"For no reason, why would I have such a dream?" Gu Mingyan's dark eyes were like deep abyss, "What if this dream is a omen? Now there is a way to stop what happens in the dream without hurting anyone. Why not give it a try.”
"..." Li Minglang was speechless for a moment.
After a while, he stood up and glanced at her, "A dream is just a dream. How can it be compared with reality? I think you were frightened by that dream. Wake up. This is reality."
He took out the phone from her hand, turned around and left. Before leaving, he left a message: "Also, you don't look like a man at all."
Gu Mingyan: "..."
She was alone in the bedroom.
Gu Mingyan sat on the chair and sighed.
So, is this a failure?
If Li Minglang told Li Zhenghua, it would be equivalent to telling everyone.
Li Yunzheng already knew that it was her who saved him. If her true gender were revealed, he didn't know what he would do...
Gu Mingyan didn't dare to think about it, and she didn't want to think about it either.
She bandaged the wound on her neck, took a simple bath, and then lay down to rest.
Of course, I didn't sleep well all night.
She was afraid that when she got up tomorrow morning, the Li family would stare at her angrily and accuse her of lying to them.
When she woke up the next day, Gu Mingyan went downstairs after washing up. The housekeeper and Zhang Ma greeted her as usual.
Li Minglang sat at the dining table, drinking coffee and reading the report, looking like he didn't want to pay attention to her.
Gu Mingyan sat down next to him and asked him, "Have you told your dad?"
Li Minglang still didn't want to pay attention to her.
Gu Mingyan leaned forward shamelessly, "Look at me. Can you agree to my request last night?"
It's obviously the same person, speaking in the same tone, but why does it feel so strange after knowing the true gender.
Li Minglang felt goosebumps appear on his body and raised his head to glare at her.
Gu Mingyan was startled: "Oh, there are so many dark circles under my eyes. Second brother, you didn't sleep well last night."
Li Minglang gritted his teeth: "What do you think!"
"..."
He knew so much, it would be strange if he could sleep well.
Especially the dream she mentioned was so outrageous that he was tortured all night...
Gu Mingyan felt very embarrassed: "It's my thing that's causing you insomnia. I'm sorry, but I really hope you don't tell anyone about me, okay? Please."
There were more and more goosebumps on his body, and Li Minglang finally couldn't bear it anymore: "Speak in a normal voice! Be more manly!"
Gu Mingyan looked confused, "What's wrong with me? I still speak like before."
She lowered her voice deliberately when she spoke.
Li Minglang: "..."
She did still make the same noise as before, but to his ears, it changed.
Perhaps because he knew she was a girl, his mood changed.
"Forget it." Li Minglang weakly rubbed his temples, "Just pretend I didn't say anything."
Gu Mingyan became more and more confused. Was he not awake yet? Was he stupid?
"The third young master is up too? Come over and eat quickly. The second young master has just finished eating."
Zhang Ma's voice suddenly sounded. It was Li Yunzheng coming down from upstairs.
Li Minglang noticed that his walking posture was wrong and frowned, "What's wrong with the legs?"
Li Yunzheng wore a set of light-colored casual and comfortable home clothes today. He had a good rest last night. He was in a good mood and smiled lazily: "It's nothing. I stabbed him with a dagger myself."
Li Minglang's eyebrows jumped sharply.
Gu Mingyan paused while eating.
This crazy guy is indeed sick!
Wouldn't you find an excuse to deal with this situation? It's so cold and scary. If Li Zhenghua is older, he will definitely make him faint.
Li Minglang took a deep breath and said, "One of you injured his leg and the other injured his neck. Did something happen last night that I don't know about?"
Afraid that he would say something even crazier, Gu Mingyan said in front of Li Yunzheng: "Nothing happened... Second brother, please eat slowly. I have something else to do, so I will leave first. I leave it to you, I hope You think about it carefully.”
After saying that, he stood up and left.
"stop."
