He panted heavily for some time before he gradually lifted his head up and scanned his surroundings. Once convinced he was in his own bedroom, he then exhaled a long breath of air and tossed his blanket aside to get out of bed and head to the bathroom.

Qin Jiayan stood in front of the window at six in the morning, staring into the morning sunshine as he recalled the dream that had woken him up.
