When Bright Moon Encounter the Dark Clouds

Chapter 86: Tan Jiao 12 (1)

I slowly opened my eyes to be greeted by the cloudy skies outside the ship. The mountains on both sides were now hidden behind a layer of fog, making everything seem quieter.

The last thing I could remember was Wu Yu and I sitting in the hall together at the inn.

Are you alright? A worried and gentle voice sounded.

I raised my head and saw Wu Miao and Wu Yu sitting on the bed next to me. Similar to me, Wu Yu also had one hand on the bed to support himself and looked very exhausted. Wu Miao was helping him, but she came to give me a hand when she saw me wake up.

Im fine, I said with a tired smile.

I met Wu Yus gaze. His eyes showed that he was calm and logical. After taking a glance at his watch, he said, Only about a minute has passed.

I was shocked and nodded my head.

It seemed that we had returned to Wu Miaos room, and only a minute had passed since the last time we fainted. This meant that the time here had continued even though we had come back twice.

We had still returned to one year ago.

With her eyes wide open, Wu Miao asked, What are you guys talking about? Why did you two become unwell all of a sudden?

Wu Yu got up and said, Were fine. Wu Miao, later on, why did you not

He stopped his question halfway into it. I looked at him and said nothing. His mind was probably a mess as well being this stressed about her sister. Later on, Wu Miao was reported as missing rather than murdered. However, in this timeline, nothing had happened yet. As such, how could Wu Yu ask his sister about what had happened?

Outside, it started to rain again. Dark clouds gathered, and it seemed like the weather was going to be bad.

Around evening, the three of us went to the restaurant on the ship. Compared to our heavy hearts, Wu Miao looked much more relaxed, juggling plates at the buffet counter and bringing us plate after plate of hot food.

I looked at her and could not help but tell Wu Yu, Your sister is really cute.

Wu Yu looked at her as well and said with a gentle smile, Looking at her running around, I really dont feel like Im dreaming.

His words made my heart ache a little. However, when I saw how happy he was now compared to how he avoided me last night, I felt somewhat disappointed.

I was placed behind his sister, his mother, and his determination to make things right. I was sure of that. Even though I should not think like this, as it was petty, I still felt sad.

Wu Miao soon came with another two plates of food. Hehe my goddess, brother, I got us some freshly brought out salmon and crab legs. Come, have some!

I was somewhat affected by her smile. Why should I be thinking about such trivial things? After all, there was no guarantee which timeline this mysterious power would toss us to.

I took the plate and said, You sure are a capable girl!

Wu Miao quickly sat beside me and said, Thank you for your compliments, goddess!

The two of us sat together with laughter and joy while Wu Yu looked at us with a gentle smile. However, I noticed that his eyes were always on me. I took a bite of that succulent crab leg meat and did not care about it.

Ah Miao, do you remember what I told you? You must not forget what I said, okay?

Wu Miao rolled her eyes with an Obviously look on her face and said, I know, I know. You said this like ten times in the past three hours. On the 4th of August, call the police and tell them that someone suspicious has been following me. Tell them that I need protection for the 5th, 6th, 7th, and 8th. If the police are not willing, then just stay at the police station. Brother, how would someone like you even make an enemy that would come after me for revenge? Also, how would you know the specific date and time they would come after me?

Just do as I say. Wu Yus plan was backed by reasons. At that time, the serial killer had murdered four others. If Wu Miao went to the police, it would surely attract the attention of the police, which would give her more protection. This was definitely better than advising her to just stay at home alone like last time.

Wu Miao glanced at me and said, My goddess, you see? Thats what my brother is like. Hes a dictator, a machismo If someone is able to tame him, that woman must be very capable and will definitely be someone I admire!

Listening to her complaint filled with double entendre, I merely smiled gently and said, Thats true. I wonder who would be so lucky.

Wu Yu took a sip from his cup and said nothing after giving me a glance.

But sometimes, it was best not to say such things. As soon as I said that, a woman appeared before our table and said in a sweet voice, Ah Yu, Ah Miao! You guys are here too!
