Just as Zhao Rong was sneaking a peek at Tao Hua, he was discovered.
Angry, she slapped him on the chest. "Brother Zhao Rong, you're so bad! You tricked me."
Realizing he had been found out, Zhao Rong quickly sat up. He pretended to be completely oblivious, saying, "I had a long, terrifying dream… What just happened? Why don't I feel anything?" As he spoke, he wiped the sweat from his forehead and continued, "It turns out I was having a nightmare."
Hearing this, Tao Hua considered it. A person having a nightmare really wasn't much different from someone who was unconscious.
Zhao Rong continued his act. "Not only was I having a nightmare, but I dreamt of a demon clinging to my body… I couldn't break free, no matter what I did… Just when I felt I was done for, an angel in white suddenly descended from the heavens and saved me… Then, I woke up…" He then needlessly added, "But I really don't know what happened just now."
