"Miss Huo, Miss Huo... wake up, please wake up..."
She didn't know how long it had been, but Huo Sining was sleeping so deeply that she vaguely heard someone calling her.
"Ah--"
Huo Sining couldn't help but let out a sharp scream and suddenly woke up from her sleep.
Her nightmare was abruptly interrupted, and she quickly opened her eyes to see Auntie Li bending over her, looking down with a smile mixed with worry.
So it was all a dream, Huo Sining thought with relief, wondering to herself why she would have such a strange and absurd dream, something about Taoist monks and sharks; it was really inexplicable.
The look of bewilderment faded from Huo Sining's eyes, and she took a deep breath of relief, only then did she feel a chill all over her body, having been startled into a cold sweat by that nightmare.
"You child, how did you fall asleep here? The floor is very cold, it's good that your clothes are not wet, otherwise, sleeping like this can easily make you catch a cold!"
