Unexpected Second Chance at Love Chapter 624 Caught one fish

Liu Shan sat quietly in the driver seat. He didn't forget to look at Yue Ling through the rearview mirror before looking back to the road ahead. He felt she looked like a lost soul, but at the same time she also looked alright.
However, thinking about her words, he furrow his brows.
Who is this 'him' in her dream that could make her feel this way?
"He was older in my dream, but I knew…"
Before Liu Shan's thoughts could deepen, Yue Ling's voice sounds from the back again.
There was a faint smile on her face as she recalls the little boy in her dream. Even now, she could still remember his features as he carried an equal image of her and Lu Tian together.
"Even though I was only 11 weeks pregnant, the moment I saw his eyes that looked like the Mediterranean Sea, I knew who he was."
Listening to her words, Liu Shan couldn't help but smile faintly. She didn't say much about how the boy in her dreams looked like, but in his mind, he could paint an image.
A little boy, probably around the age of four or five. He has Lu Tian's dark hair and cold demeanor but has Yue Ling's soft and mesmerizing eyes that makes one feel a sense of warmth.
Oblivious to her assistant's painted image that was exactly like the child in her dream, Yue Ling kept her smile as she continues to stare out the window. She sighs softly before continuing her words.
"We stood in the middle of a field with a long path leading in two different directions. At first, I was drawn to a path, but he stood at the opposite path and held out his hand to me."
The smile on her face gradually lowers as her eyes turn moist in remembrance of that vivid dream. She swore, if she were to close her eyes, she could visualize that scene in her mind forever.
"I took his hand and he led me away from the path I wanted to take. As we walked through the field, he told me that he was not mad and that I shouldn't be sad because it was not his time."
Her lower lip trembles but she suppress the urge to cry.
"In that dream, I also saw Shin. He reached out his hand to the little boy and the two of them walked away. Then… when I opened my eyes, I realized I was led back to Tian."
Her words fell and the inside of the car goes into a long silence. The only sound that could be heard were the faint noise from outside as they pass through Imperial.
Liu Shan couldn't bring himself to say anything to her. He controls the steering wheel with one hand while his other hand raise up to his face.
He made sure to also turn his head towards the side window so that his boss wouldn't see him wipe away the tears that gathered at the rim of his eyes.
At first, he thought he was only listening to a normal dream, but never did he think it would be such a sad dream. So sad and touching that it made him unable to contain his own tears.
Even in death, his boss's child still came to her dreams. He must have wanted to see her for the last time before going to heaven and knew that the path she wanted to take was not the right one for her.
Not only her child, but even Shin appeared in her dream to stop her.
If she never took her child's hand, he was sure that she would have never opened her eyes again.
"Boss… You're not crazy."
He sounds a loud sniffle and focus his eyes on the road in front of him.
"If you're crazy then I must be crazy with you."
He inhales a deep breath that shook his body as he brace himself for what he has to tell her.
"I can also remember my dream before waking up in the hospital."
He smiles painfully after his words and thought back to the dream he had before he awoke in the hospital to see Lin Hui and Xu Long at his side.
"I dreamt I was fishing on a dock near the ocean, but I wasn't alone. Chen Yifeng was there with me. It felt so real like I had gone back to the past when we used to go fishing together."
Just like Yue Ling who remembered her dream so vividly, he too remember his.
"The sun was still up when we were fishing, but after all the endless words we had to say, we finally realized that the sun was beginning to set."
He chuckles softly and his eyes that were about to dry up gradually turn moist again.
"It was a dream, but we only caught one fish."
His chuckles turn faint as he press his lips together to keep them from trembling.
"Yifeng looked at the setting sun and said it was time for him to leave. I asked him to stay, but he shook his head and said he only came to see how I was doing…"
He glance out to the clear blue sky that Yue Ling had been looking at then his words continue.
"Before he left, he told me that I should leave too, but for me to take the path opposite from him as it would lead me home."
He furrow his brows and tries to blink his eyes free from any tears, but a streak of tear still found its way and slid down his cheek. He quickly wipes it away and force a smile.
"I had only turned around to look at the path he told me to take before everything around me engulf in darkness. It was then that I opened my eyes and I was staring at the hospital ceiling."
He choked out his words in a quiet sob. If his boss had a dream about her child and he about Chen Yifeng, then that meant they were both saved.
The both of them were already standing in front of death's door, but because it wasn't their time to go, those who were dear them that have left the world came to stop them. It felt like a short encounter in a dream, but it was their way of stopping them (Yue Ling and Liu Shan) from entering the door of no return.
Yue Ling sat in silence as she listened to her assistant tell his dream. She never turn to look at him, but she knew that he was secretly crying.
She decided to feign ignorance to him as she knows how much that dream meant to Liu Shan.
