Chapter 462: It Must Be a Dream

Lu Jincheng had been unresponsive, and Ji Yao talking to herself felt meaningless, soon going silent.

Looking at the man panting and flushed, she couldn't bear to watch anymore, stood up, went to the rest area, fetched a basin of water, and soaked a towel in hot water to make a warm compress.

When she returned, she placed a warm towel on his forehead and used the rest to wipe his body.

Despite her incessant complaints, her actions were meticulous.

She wiped his neck and wrists, and the heat brought by her touch caused Lu Jincheng's fingers to move slightly, as he seemed to regain a bit of consciousness.

He groggily opened his eyes to a blur before him.

Within that hazy afterimage, he saw Ji Yao's face.

His mind muddled, Lu Jincheng was still not clear-headed. Suddenly seeing Ji Yao, he thought he was dreaming, muttering in confusion.

"Ji, Ji Yao, is that you?"

"How, how could I see you? Impossible, it's impossible to see you, I must be dreaming, yes, definitely dreaming."
