Against Fate (Eternal Love of Dream/ Ten Miles Pillow Book FanFic)

"Di Jun... Please don't close your eyes! Wake up!" Feng Jiu woke up with tears in her eyes.

She thought to herself "Why do I keep dreaming of this man with long silver hair and purple robes? Who is he?"

*BEEP BEEP BEEP*

Fengjiu grabbed her phone to turn the alarm off. "What time is it now? It's already 8.00 AM?! I'm almost late!"

It is 9 March 2020 today, an important day for Feng Jiu as she will be attending an interview at Tai Chen Group, China's biggest Multinational Corporation.

It was Feng Jiu's life-long dream to get into Tai Chen Group. She applied for an internship position at Tai Chen Group so that she could get a job there after she graduates from Qing University.

Feng Jiu quickly jumped out of bed and started preparing for work. She double-checked her documents for the interview and made sure that she didn't miss out on anything important before rushing out of the house.

She definitely did not want to be late for the interview.

Feeling extremely nervous because she wanted this job so badly, Feng Jiu practiced her interview questions countless times, over the past two weeks. She didn't want to ruin any of her chances to get into Tai Chen Group.

Feng Jiu's best friend, Cha Cha, was also attending the same interview.

Cha Cha met Feng Jiu at the bus stop so that they could head to Tai Chen Group together. Also, they could practice their interview questions together, while they make their way there.

"I hope we both get into Tai Chen Group!" Feng Jiu excitedly exclaimed.

"Even if I don't get in, I'll be happy if you did, Feng Jiu! Let's just hope for the best!" Cha Cha smiled and replied cheerfully.

They arrived at Tai Chen Group early, but there were already hundreds of candidates waiting to be interviewed.

"There are so many people here but I'm not losing hope! I got this!" Feng Jiu confidently thought to herself.

"Are you ok, Cha Cha?" Fengjiu asked Cha Cha after seeing her frowning's face.

Cha Cha sighed deeply and replied, "I guess so. I'm just feeling a little worried. There is so many people here, do you think we will get in?"

"Don't worry! We will be fine. Have more confidence in yourself, Cha Cha. I know you'll do well in the interview." Fengjiu patted Cha Cha's head while reassuring her.

Out of a sudden, there was a big crowd gathered at the entrance of the building.

"What is going on there?!" Cha Cha exclaimed excitedly.

At this point, Feng Jiu couldn't care less about what's going on as she was feeling very nervous about the interview.

"Go ahead and take a look if you're curious, Cha Cha. I'm too nervous right now and I think I'll go freshen up, at the restroom. I'll join you later, keep me updated on what's going on there." Feng Jiu said before standing up and heading off to look for a restroom nearby.

Cha Cha then swiftly ran towards the crowd to check what's going on there.

"This building is huge. I can't even find the restroom and there isn't anyone around to ask! Where could it be?" Feng Jiu was getting frustrated.

"There isn't anything here!" Feng Jiu angrily thought to herself while she pushed open the heavy doors.

While she was preparing to leave, she smelled something funny. It smelled like gasoline. She then noticed two men acting suspiciously.

Upon further investigation, she discovered the two men trying to set fire to the building, and the floor was already covered with gasoline.

Feng Jiu's mind froze with fear. She didn't know what to do.

Before she could escape, one of the guys turned his back and noticed Feng Jiu standing there, watching them.

"Get her! She had seen everything, we can't let her get away" the man shouted loudly while pointing towards Feng Jiu's direction.

It took every strength in her to turn around and run for her life.

"No! I can't die here today, I need to get out of here!"
