我要再来一次

Creasing his brows, he rushed towards it, recognizing it was Xiaolei\'s voice.

He thought she was finally awake but to his surprise, Xiaolei was lying in bed and was still asleep. However, looking at her, he found that where the source of all the moaning and twisting.

Immediately, Yu Chen rushed towards the bed and held Xiaolei\'s shoulder and squeezed it heard enough to apply a gentle pressure onto it.

"Xiaolei!" he called out, trying to wake her up. He then gently shook her before calling out her name again.

Xiaolei\'s eyes flew wide as she gasped out in distress. Her forehead was wet with sweat.

"Are you okay?" Yu Chen pulled her up and hugged her, rubbing her back gently. "It\'s just a bad dream, my wife. It\'s okay." He coaxed, calming her down. His heart ached for her as he saw her wide opened eyes as though a deer caught in headlights.

When Xiaolei managed to calm down, Yu Chen got up and walked to the side table to pour her a glass of water. Handing it to her, his eyes were full of questioning.

"I had a weird dream." She said after looking into his eyes before taking a deep breath.

"A scary one…?" Yu Chen prompted her when she remained silent for a while.

Xiaolei nodded. "There\'s a big fire. A really big one..." She replied and took another breath again before she shook her head to clear her mind. She noticed that the sun was already high in the sky and looked at her husband, lifting one perfectly trimmed eyebrow at him.

"Not going to work today Mr. CEO?" she gently teased him.

Yu Chen shook his head. "I don\'t think I can drag myself away from you today."

His answer made Xiaolei smile tenderly, and she continued teasing him, "and what are you going to do with me today, hmm? My big bad wolf?"

His face reddened after hearing her call out her new nickname for him and Xiaolei could not help but find him adorably sexy. "Don\'t seduce me again, wife. Not unless you want to bear the brunt of it. I already overdid it last night. I\'m afraid you would not be able to take it if we were to go at it again."

A laugh echoed around their room like little chiming bells. And Xiaolei pinched his check.

"You\'re so cute!" and she grinned at him.

"I\'m sorry. I made you pass out." Yu Chen said but that only drew a delightful chuckle from his wife.

"I loved it. I\'m ready to have a go at it again, you know?" Xiaolei whispered scandalously and winked at him before bursting out into giggles at the look on his face.

Yu Chen blinked many times as though not comprehending her words. After which, he then swallowed hard and choked a little. He then looked away and stood up hastily.

"No, no, let\'s go eat. I can\'t exhaust you again without feeding you first. You are already so lean as it is. Other things can wait." He scooped her up into his arms and took her off the bed. He carried her princess-like towards the kitchen.

"Ah… my hubby, you pamper me too much." She murmured against his neck, sending delicious shivers down his spine.

"I love pampering you. Now sit here and let\'s eat. I\'ll feed you."

After their blissful brunch on the open veranda, Xiaolei leaned over the railing as she stared appreciatively at the view. Yu Chen had to answer a phone call so she was left alone.

As she stood there, she started to feel something odd again. It was as if there was something very important that she had forgotten about. What was it? Why could she not remember if it was so important? Could it be that it was not as important as it seemed?

Frowning hard, Xiaolei tried to think on it hard, trying to remember whatever important thing was it that she had forgotten. But to her dismay, nothing came to her mind. She was drawing a total blank. Ugh! What was it? Was there some important event happening today?

Feeling a bit frustrated, Xiaolei swiped her phone out and quickly ran through her schedule. The moment she saw the date, her body froze. Something finally clicked within her mind.

Something major did happened during this day in her previous life! She remembered that back then, she had found out from the TV that Scarlet Hill was on fire.

Her eyes flew wide opened with shock and horror. Scarlet Hill! That was their home! When she remembered that it had not started as a simple fire, she had realised that something fishy must have happened. The media mysteriously did not cover much about how the fire came bout but just that news alone was enough to make Xiaolei\'s heart thud in utter fear and panic.

She ran inside, calling out her husband\'s name. Her voice was frightened and that alarmed Yu Chen.

"Yu Chen! Hubby! We need to go! We need to go back home now!" she exclaimed and Yu Chen quickly held her, seeing the fear in her eyes. "Ranran and Rui aren\'t there right now, right?!"

"Calm down, wife. What is wrong?" he did not know why she was behaving like this. But he knew that she would not simply make things up. There must be a reason to her panic.

"Something… something will happen there soon. In Scarlet Hill. I remember. There will be a fire. A big fire." Xiaolei\'s eyes were wide with fear, and she could not think rationally anymore.

Thankfully, Yu Chen seemed to immediately believe her words. And with a serious gaze, he dialled a number on his phone.

"Immobilize the army. Head to Scarlet Hill now! Also, send a chopper here to the hotel." He ordered, his calm eyes gleaming so dangerously. Then he dialled another number this time. "Big bro, I need back up. Something\'s coming up today. Something big. Yes, Bro Zaki is there right now."
