In the following days, Fang Yu did not return to the bitter days of sleeping on the floor but warmed the fragrant bed every night. Although he was often dissatisfied by the burning desire in his body, he was now able to sleep beside Lin Moyan. Compared to the nights where he slept on the floor and listened to Lin Moyan’s quiet breathing, this situation was many times better.

Every night, he would sing lullabies to Lin Moyan. He found joy in being able to comfort Lin Moyan and was not impatient or annoyed about staying up late every night. Fang Yu took it upon himself to find songs with soothing tones and a soft melody that would promote better sleep. He would play them when Lin Moyan went to bed and would occasionally sing a few lyrics here and there.

Lin Moyan would be lulled to sleep by Fang Yu’s soft and gentle singing every night but he would still relive the unawakening nightmare. Fortunately, Fang Yu’s original train of thought was not wrong. After Lin Moyan entered his nightmare, the time taken to coax him back to sleep was getting shorter and shorter. Initially, it would take a few hours but it decreased until it took only about an hour now. Now, as long as Fang Yu uttered a few words of comfort, Lin Moyan would be able to settle down in a matter of minutes.

Fang Yu’s initial anxiety and worry gradually dissipated. That night, Fang Yu put Lin Moyan to sleep with his voice as usual, and a few hours later, he was awakened by Lin Moyan’s suppressed sobs. Fang Yu hugged the person tightly in his arms, patted the person in his arms like a baby, and kept coaxing him. Just as Lin Moyan’s breathing calmed down and he was about to sleep, he started struggling violently suddenly. At the same time, he shouted, “No, don’t touch me, Fang Yu, stop…Fang Yu…”

Fang Yu’s heart jolted in shock. He…he also caused Lin Moyan’s nightmare? At this moment, Fang Yu had the urge to slap himself senseless. He had always resented those who caused Lin Moyan harm, but he had forgotten that he had also been like those people at the start, caring for himself and hurting him.

But no matter what, he wouldn’t give up Lin Moyan. He would try his best to make Lin Moyan fall in love with him. If that wouldn’t work, he would tie Lin Moyan to him for the rest of his life. As long as Lin Moyan was with him, nothing else mattered.

T/N: He’s kinda…yandere

“Fang Yu…save me…Fang Yu…save me…” Lin Moyan’s words pulled him out of his daze. It turned out that Lin Moyan wanted him to save him, not because he hated him.

Fang Yu’s eyes were slightly wet and he held Lin Moyan even more firmly to his chest. While giving the other party a sense of security, he was also trying to fill the void in his heart. Even if Lin Moyan didn’t dislike him as much now, he knew that Lin Moyan still harboured hatred for what he did to him. He regretted doing such things to Lin Moyan but he was also glad that he hadn’t pushed further and had stopped after realising his feelings. Otherwise, this person would have despised him to the bone and their relationship would no longer be reparable.

“I’m here, I’ll save you, I’m here. With me, no one can hurt you…” Fang Yu muttered in his throat, repeating his words until Lin Moyan relaxed. The person in his arms felt Fang Yu’s warm embrace and comfort, gradually calming down and falling into a deep sleep.

Fang Yu finally relaxed, took a long breath, raised his hand and pulled out a few paper towels, wiping the tears at the corner of his eyes. He then lowered his head to wipe away the tears that had fallen on Lin Moyan’s face but happened to meet a pair of hazy black eyes.

Fang Yu was not sure if the other party was awake, so he called out tentatively, “Baby?”

The other party blinked, letting his half-contained tears overflow and replied with a faint, dry voice, “Fang Yu…I had a nightmare…”

Fang Yu confirmed that Lin Moyan was awake and gently wiped away the tears from his eyes while asking, “What nightmare did you have? Come tell me, I’m listening…”

Lin Moyan raised his hand and rubbed the corners of his eyes that had been cleaned, lowered his head and rubbed against Fang Yu’s body. There was silence for a long time. Just when Fang Yu thought the other party would not speak, Lin Moyan slowly spoke, “Many, many nightmares. It was just like in a horror movie, scenes flashed one after another, from the moment my mother gave birth to me, there was also the scene when my dad abandoned me. Afterwards, he looked like he had been beaten up by someone, his face was black and blue.”

There was a slight pause before he continued.

“In my dream, I seemed to be only a few years old. I was scared and ran forward, but no matter what, I didn’t move an inch. My stepfather was also there but he didn’t look like a human at all, he instead resembled a monster with horns and his eyes were slanted downwards. His face was green, his facial features were tangled together, and his body was also green with long hair. He stretched out his hands and chased me from behind. I ran forward, sprinting towards the exit but the surroundings suddenly changed and there was a bed where he pushed me down. After that, he suddenly transformed into my mother. She was not a monster and she didn’t chase me, but she…her hair was white and her eyes were swollen. She was holding me and was mumbling that she did not blame me. There were also some messy pictures, some of which were black caves on the edge of the cliff. There were a group of monsters that kept chasing me as I continued running…At that time, you suddenly appeared and I called out to you to help me but… you didn’t come. You reached out your hand but didn’t move a step forward to me, you didn’t…didn’t come to help me…”

Fang Yu listened carefully to every word that Lin Moyan said. Lin Moyan’s voice was low and faint. In the late-night, there was nothing else except his soft voice. Fang Yu listened attentively until he finished narrating his dream.

He lifted Lin Moyan’s head buried in front of his chest and looked at the other party’s extremely bright but fragile eyes under the dim light. With a solemn voice, he swore, “Lin Moyan, I, Fang Yu, will never watch you get into trouble. I will always protect you. No matter what happens, you must trust me and believe that I will save you, okay?”

Lin Moyan could not see Fang Yu’s grave expression in the dim room but he still nodded gently. Seeing Lin Moyan agree, Fang Yu kissed his forehead as if he was giving a reward, then rubbed his back and asked softly, “Can you sleep now?”

Lin Moyan closed his eyes, dug into Fang Yu’s arms, and shook his head.

“Then, I’ll sing a lullaby?” Fang Yu thought for a while and suggested.

Lin Moyan tightened his arms around Fang Yu’s waist, pressing the two bodies close together and shook his head. Fang Yu helplessly rubbed Lin Moyan’s soft hair and asked, “What should I do?”

“Fang Yu, touch me…” Lin Moyan muttered with a muffled voice with his entire head buried in Fang Yu’s chest. Fang Yu tightened his arms around Lin Moyan until their bones were almost touching each other.

“Fang Yu, not like that…I feel uncomfortable…I want you…” Lin Moyan finally expressed his deep desire.

He had finally awakened from the nightmare and remembered what had happened. After waking up, those memories that he had buried erupted as if a dam had been broken and he had no way to resist. Those painful memories inevitably overwhelmed him. Even with Fang Yu’s assurance and comfort, it was not enough. He needed something more to make him forget about these memories.

T/N: I rarely dream but when I do, it’s like I’m watching a movie. Usually, my dreams are thriller and horror, horror mainly consisting of ghosts and the occasional monsters and I somehow end up dying in every single one of them. Normally, people are the MC in their dreams, right? So why am I dying in my own dreams and the protagonist becomes someone else? T-T
