Chapter 203
The family of three was getting closer to Yun City. Xu Xiuhe, driving the RV, felt a bit regretful. Had he known, they would have just flown here directly. Driving all this way was truly exhausting.
Xu Xiuhe never imagined there would come a day when he'd be troubled by such a thing.
"When we get to Yun City, let's stay in a hotel. Living in the RV all the time isn't very convenient," Xu Xiuhe said, turning to Shen Yin.
"Sounds good. You can make the arrangements," she replied.
"Alright, then we'll stay in Yun City for a while longer and return to Rong City at the end of October."
The first thing the family of three did upon arriving in Yun City was to find a high-end five-star hotel.
"We'd like to check in for two weeks, in a presidential suite," Xu Xiuhe said.
The hotel receptionist looked at them, feeling they seemed somewhat familiar, but couldn't quite place who they were.
"Who are they? They're so extravagant, staying for half a month in the presidential suite. That costs several thousand per night," another staff member asked the receptionist after the family had gone upstairs.
"Probably some tycoon traveling with his wife and child. But why do they look so familiar to me?"
In the presidential suite, Shen Yin set Xu Yunzheng down as the staff brought up their luggage.
"Let's give Zhengzheng a bath first. After his bath, we'll let him sleep. He's probably tired from sitting in the car for so long," Xu Xiuhe suggested.
Zhengzheng seemed to have forgotten about that dream during this time and was no longer so resistant to water.
During bath time, both Shen Yin and Xu Xiuhe were in the bathroom.
"Zhengzheng, shall we play a game?" Xu Xiuhe asked.
"Okay, I love Daddy," the child replied.
"Do you love Mommy too?" Shen Yin asked.
"Zhengzheng loves Mommy too. Love Mommy. Let's play the game together."
"Zhengzheng, for this game, you just need to answer whatever Daddy asks, okay? Let's see how many questions Zhengzheng can answer."
"Okay."
"The question is like this: One day, baby Zhengzheng had a dream, and when he woke up, he started crying. Can Zhengzheng tell Daddy what that dream was about?"
Shen Yin nudged Xu Xiuhe upon hearing this, giving him a look to suggest he shouldn't ask such a question.
Zhengzheng had finally stopped being afraid, and if they asked about it now, what if he remembered and became traumatized again?
"Zhengzheng, it's like this: dreams aren't real, but if Zhengzheng meets bad people in his dreams, Daddy can also dream and go punish those bad people in the dream for Zhengzheng, okay? So Zhengzheng doesn't need to be afraid. Whatever dream you had, you can tell Daddy about it."
Xu Xiuhe's tone was extremely gentle, even more patient than usual.
The little one sat in the water, thought for a while, and then said, "Water... there was a person in the water. They couldn't get up."
"What kind of person was it? Does Zhengzheng know them?"
Zhengzheng shook his head, unwilling to think about this question anymore.
Shen Yin and Xu Xiuhe weren't sure what this head shake meant.
Did he not know, or did he not recognize the person?
"Alright, Daddy won't ask anymore. Zhengzheng should believe in Daddy. Daddy will always protect Zhengzheng, so Zhengzheng doesn't need to be afraid."
That night, after putting Zhengzheng to sleep, the couple went to another room.
"You scared me to death just now. When you asked that question, I was afraid he'd start crying again," Shen Yin said.
"I was afraid he'd cry too. I was also nervous about it."
"Then why did you ask?"
"I was just worried, that's all."
Shen Yin realized something.
"Are you worried that his dream might be like mine, able to foresee the future?"
"Yes. Your dreams can do that, so I'm afraid he might be able to as well."
