Chapter 1879: 1879

A shiver ran up Ye Qianqian’s spine . She rubbed the gooseflesh off her arms as she said, “Say, do you think Heaven is trying to tell us something?”

“Bullsh*t . ” Shen Zhilie laughed in exasperation . “I think it’s probably because I kept thinking about what you said after you related it to me, so it appeared in my dreams . ”

As they say, “what you think about in the day appears in your dreams at night . ” It was apparently true .

“Is that really the case?” Ye Qianqian found his explanation reasonable . “Sigh . It’s one day after another . When is it going to get better?”

“Go back to sleep . It’s fine . ” Shen Zhilie embraced her and said, “Your body has to be healthy to get pregnant . Stop staying up late . ”

“It’s not like I’m doing it intentionally . Oh my god, Old Shen . You gave me such a huge fright . ”

Shen Zhilie raised his brows and asked, “I spoke in my sleep, too?”

“Yeah!” Ye Qianqian burrowed into his arms and replied, “You kept yelling ‘Grandmother’ and ‘Ye Qianqian . ’ I kept trying to shake you awake, but to no avail . ”

“That bad?” While Shen Zhilie found the prospect funny, he couldn’t help being perturbed by it, too . He had always been a light sleeper, and it never crossed his mind that he would one day experience something like that .

“Yes!” Ye Qianqian nodded her head . “You have no idea! I called and pinched you so many times, but you wouldn’t wake up!”

“What did you call me?”

“Huh?” Ye Qianqian was confused and didn’t know how to reply .

“You said you called me many times . What did you call me?”

“Old Shen,” Ye Qianqian replied matter-of-factly . “I always call you that . ”

Shen Zhilie nodded his head and said, “All right . Got it . ”

“Huh?”

“Psychologically, all of this can be explained . There is a popular theory that psychological and environmental factors have a huge influence on one’s dreams . ”

“What’s that supposed to mean?”

“In layman’s terms, it means that your dream was contagious and spread to me!”

“Yeah, right! How is that possible?”

“Well, it is . ” Shen Zhilie hugged her and held her head close . “Go to sleep!”

“Sigh… fine . ”

Not long after Ye Qianqian closed her eyes, Shen Zhille’s cellphone, which had been left charging by the bedside, suddenly chimed .

It was from an unidentified number, but the district code showed that it came from Kingstown .

When Ye Qianqian saw this, she asked, “Is it the police again?”

Shen Zhilie didn’t think that was likely . After looking at it for a moment, he replied, “It’s probably a prank call . ”

He silenced the phone and placed it back in its original position . However, soon after the phone stopped vibrating, it began to ring again . It was from the same number .

“Answer it . What if it’s important?” Ye Qianqian asked .

Shen Zhilie checked the time; it was barely five in the morning . He answered the call, but could only hear wind blowing on the other end .

“Hello?” Shen Zhilie said .

A sudden cackle came through the line, and a very menacing voice could be heard saying, “I’m not happy at all . Since you dared to call the police, I have no choice but to repay the gesture with a huge present . ”

Shen Zhilie had answered the call on speakerphone, and Ye Qianqian could hear every word clearly . Her heart skipped a beat, and her whole body began to tremble .

Just as she was about to speak, Shen Zhilie covered her mouth . The expression in Shen Zhilie’s eyes warned her to stay silent . Then, with a steady voice, he asked, “What do you want?”

“Ha ha! I don’t know what I want . Oh, right! I saw that you drive a Porsche, so I guess you do have a bit of money . ”
