Chapter 314: It’s Just a Nightmare. Don’t Think Too Much
After they leave the club, Louis doesn’t go back to hotel with others. Instead, he takes Lily to get in the
private car beside the street. It seems like they are heading to somewhere else.
Lily looks out of the window and doesn’t know they are going.
She asks Louis, “Why aren’t we going back to the hotel? Are you hungry already?”
“A little bit.” Louis says with a deep voice.
Lily is not stupid and knows what he is talking about. Her face blushes quickly and she gives him a
hard punch. She feels lucky that the driver doesn’t understand Chinese.
Soon, the ck car drives out of the city and arrives at a holiday vige following the navigation
system.
All buildings of the holiday vige are Japanese-style. They are low-key and elegant. Roof and trees
are all covered by a thinyer of snow. It looks like they are integrated with the white.
“So pretty!” Lily praises the view before her eyes. The heat that gets out of her mouth soon dissipates
into the air. She says, “It is like wondend!”
Louis walks to her and smiles lightly, “The snow today is not heavy enough. It won’t make piles. I asked
them to make artificial snow. That’s why you are seeing this view.”
Lily turns to him immediately, “I was wondering why the snow was so heavy. It turns out that it is man-
made snow!”
“It’s to fulfill Mrs. Smith’s wish to make a snowman.” Louis fastens her scarf, “We have the whole
holiday vige to ourselves today. You can choose whichever room Mrs. Smith wants to stay in and do
whatever Mrs. Smith wants to do to enjoy herself. Nobody will stop you.”
“It must be expensive?” Lily thinks of the money he spent.
He booked the whole holiday vige and ordered so much man-made snow. It must take arge
amount of money.
“It’s okay. Only 30 thousand a night.”
Lily takes a deep breath. Her expression changes.
Several secondster, Lily bends down to grab the snow, muttering, “I must make full use of the time. I
can’t waste it!”
Louis brings over a shovel, “Mrs. Smith, we need to make arge snowman. Are you trying to make a
snowman asrge as your palm?”
“Not really...” Lily prolongs her tone. With a snowball in her hand, she steps back.
“Em?”
Lily smiles slyly to Louis and toughly tosses the snowball in her hand to him.
Louis doesn’t expect this. The snowball breaks apart on his shoulder, and some of it even hits his face.
The coldness almost makes him numb. But the woman across from himughs even more happily.
He strides to chase her and pretends to be angry, “You dare to toss a snowball to me. Are you so bold
now?”
“You could have hidden from it!”
Of course Lily won’t just stand on the spot and let him get her. She runs on the snow. While running,
she also grabs snow from the ground and makes snowballs to toss them to Louis. She is having much
fun.
Louis’s legs are long, but he purposely doesn’t run away from the snowballs. Instead, he lets them hit
him. asionally, he grabs snow from the ground too and makes snowballs to toss them to her. He
just wants to be with her.
After a while, Lily is all sweaty. Her chest rises and falls. Then she gets the shovel and shovels the
snow. With the help of Louis, she makes a big snowman.
She also puts her scarf around the snowman.
Looking at the snowman which is almost 2 meters high, Lily is very satisfied. Though her hands
be red because of the wind, she doesn’t care, “Finally, my wish to make a big snowman bes
reality!”
Several years ago when she was abroad for further study, when winter arrived, she told John that if the
snow came, she would make a snowman.
And John said okay.
When it was almost Christmas, there was a big snow in Country Y. John came to find her early and
took her outside. He said when the snow was heavy enough at night, they would make a snowman.
But when they got out of the theatre and wanted to make a snowman, John received a call. He was told

an emergency required his help. Then he took her back to the campus.
Then that thing happened, and she put him behind bars with her own hands.
Things from the past suddenly alle to her, leaving Lily in a trance until the happy Christmas carol
rises up beside her ears.
It is past 12 o’clock now. It’s Christmas.
Louis puts her hands in his to make them warm. He says with resignation and love, “We have had a
snowball fight and made a snowman. It’s time to go back to sleep. You will catch a cold standing in the
snow for too long.”
Lily is back and looks at his serious face and eyes full of love. She can’t help but tap on her toes to kiss
him.
“What?” Louis looks at her seriously, “Did you do anything bad?”
“No!”
“Then why do you suddenly be so active?” Louis bes more serious but he doesn’t raise his
tone at all, “You got in a trance when looking at the snowman just now. Were you thinking about
something?”
Lily sighed, “I was regretting. I thought I shouldn’t have agreed to your proposal and be Mrs.
Smith so early. Think about it, I am so young, and you are already in your thirties.”
Louis narrows his eyes and questions her, “Are you saying I am too old?”
Lily nods honestly, “A little bit.”
Louis suddenly bends down to carry her with his arms and walks to the nearest vi, “Let’s go inside
and I will show you.”
“You bastard!” Though they are the only two persons in the holiday vige, Lily still gets shy. She
blushes and her face turns red. She punches him hard, “You are going to sleep on the ground tonight!”
“It’s not a good idea. I like bed.” Louis answers her and his lips slightly rise up.
The love that he gives is hot and fiery.
So fascinating.
When it’s 2 or 3 o’clock in the night, the snow bes heavier. The roof and the ground are covered
by a thickyer of snow now.
In the vi, Lily’s head rests on Louis’ arm. She is deep in sleep, but her eyebrows are frowning.
She is dreaming of John.
He is walking to her with a slight smile, and he looks at her gently just like he did when they first fell in
love with each other. But the light in his eyes is gone.
When he is by her side, John says he wants to talk to her.
Before Lily can ask him how he has been doing, the gray suit that John is wearing is dyed dark-red.
The heavy smell of blood runs into her nose.
He coughs hard and his hands are covered with blood.
Lily is very worried and wants to help him. But he falls on the ground with his face up. Blood is all over
his body. Lily is so scared that she screams.
She opens her eyes and sees the warm, yellow droplight. She is still breathing heavily.
“What?” Louis is woken by her scream as well. He looks at her pale face and holds her into his arms,
mollifying her, “It’s just a nightmare. I am here.”
Lily buries her face into his arms. She still remembers every detail of that dream.
She dreamed of Jason’s death before. Then Jason took a bullet for her and died.
Now she is dreaming of John’s death.
Lily dares not to think too much and holds Louis’ waist with her hands. Her voice is trembling, “Louis, I
am so scared.”
Louis kisses on her forehead, “It is just a nightmare. Don’t think too much.”
Is it just a nightmare?
Lily doesn’t know what to say and just holds him tightly. Only in his arms can she feel safe. Louis
fondles her hair and consoles her gently.
At this moment, the phone on the table turns on and begins vibrating.
Louis picks up the phone and looks at the screen before answering the call. He says with a low voice,
“Daniel, what’s up?”
“Leigh’s father died.”
The room is very quiet. So Lily, who is in Louis’ arms, can hear what Daniel says at the other end of the
phone.
She raises her head in terror and holds her breath.
“The ropes of the truck weren’t fastened tight. The steel bars on the truck fell off. The car that Leigh’s
father was in was driving behind the truck. A steel bar pierced through the car window and hit into
uncle’s heart. He was sitting in the back. And he nearly died on the spot.”
