That evening, Xia Lin drove Song Yan back to Song Family's house and found that many strangers came in and out of the house, seeming to be carrying something.

"Does your home need to be redecorated?" Xia Lin asked.

"Well, something like that." Song Yan answered ambiguously.

Xia Lin didn't care too much, thinking that since Song Yan is going to live in City B for a while, there is nothing wrong with renovating the old house.

"Get off, I'll take you in." Xia Lin said then went to the back compartment to move the wheelchair.

After Song Yan got on the wheelchair, he said to Xia Lin: "As soon as someone comes out to pick me up, you can go back."

Xia Lin frowned. They had already reached the door of Song's house but Song Yan didn't want to let him in.

At this time, a nanny in her fifties greeted him: "Mr. Song, you're back."

Song Yan smiled at her and turned back to Xia Lin, "This is my newly hired nanny. I can take care of all my affairs here. It's late so go back and rest early."

Xia Lin looked at the nanny, then at the busy group of strangers, and asked, "Song Yan, are you driving me away?"

"I originally wanted to keep you but my home is messy and the smell is not good. If you are in poor health, don't stay here longer, okay?"

This explanation was barely acceptable to Xia Lin. Although he still felt that Song Yan's attitude was a little weird, he couldn't push it anymore so he told Song Yan a few words and drove away.

Xia Lin did not go back to the school dormitory because he was still on vacation and went directly to Xia Family's house.

In the past few days, Zhou Shuo followed Xia Liang to other provinces to discuss projects. Only Father Xia, Mrs. Xia, and Uncle Teng were left at home.

At dinner, the old lady asked about Xia Lin's exchanges abroad. Xia Lin's mood was down today. At night, he felt particularly tired and even a little absent-minded that he answered their questions wrong.

The old lady Xia thought that he's jet-lagged so she hurried Xia Lin back to his room to sleep after eating.

But Xia Lin's sleep was filled with nightmares again.

He dreamt that Song Yan was crushed under a rock and bled to death. Another moment, he dreamt that Song Yan fell from a high building and his brain burst.

Finally, he woke up from his dream. His whole body was wet with cold sweat. He never dared to fall asleep anymore so he could only sit on the bed with the light on.

He carefully recalled everything that happened in the past few days and felt that something was not right. It seems that Song Yan is hiding something important from him.

His cell phone suddenly rang. The caller ID showed Song Yan.

Xia Lin hesitated for a while before he picked it up: "Hello?"

"Xia Lin."

Song Yan's voice sounded hesitating, "Are you... still asleep?" "

"Yeah."

Xia Lin didn't want to tell the other party that he was awakened by a nightmare.

"Today, did I make you angry?"

"What do you mean?"

"I didn't mean to prevent you from entering the house, I just--"

Xia Lin sighed. Since he called to apologize, why should he stop him?

"It's okay, I didn't mind."

Xia Lin rubbed his eyebrows and said, "Did you call just for this?"

"In addition to that matter, I actually want to hear your voice. Did you...have a nightmare? "

Xia Lin was startled: "How did you know? "

"The light in your room is on."

Xia Lin frowned, got out of bed, and walked to the window. Through the gap of the curtain, he saw a car parked outside the courtyard.

"Are you downstairs? "

"I couldn't sleep at night so I wanted to come and see you. When I got here, I realized that it was a bit late. You were already asleep and I didn't want to go back alone so... I just stayed downstairs for a while, and then, I saw the light in your room turn on."

Xia Lin was speechless for a moment and suddenly realized something, "Did you drive here by yourself?"

"Yes. My newly hired nanny doesn't look like a new-age woman who can drive," Song Yan joked, "I can't use her as my assistant so I have to come out by myself."

Xia Lin was anxious: "You can't drive by yourself, that's dangerous!"

"I modified this car. All operations are on hand and a spare brake is installed on the foot. So in general it is quite safe."

Xia Lin was silent for a moment and said: "Wait a minute." Then he hung up the phone.

Song Yan didn't know what he meant. He held his mobile phone for a moment and then saw Xia Lin who is wearing pajamas and holding a blanket open the door.

When the other party opened the car door and took the passenger seat, Song Yan asked, "What are you doing?"

"We both can't sleep anymore so let's stay together and chat."

As Xia Lin said that, he folded the blanket into a rectangle and covered half of their knees.

Song Yan was in a daze for a moment and then smiled: "I remember during high school in the last life, you failed the exam and your father ordered you to stay home. At that time, we originally planned to go to the beach to watch the sunrise. I came here to meet you secretly in the middle of the night but was still caught by your dad."

When Song Yan mentioned it, he also vaguely thought of it. At that time, they were too young, and they didn't have so many complicated thoughts. They would act immediately if they wanted to.

Looking back now, although the ending of their previous life was not good, it was simple and happy after all.
