Starlight Has No Past Chapter 29.2

Chapter 29 Part 2

Ye Qiao made the excuse that she was tired and going to sleep, then bid goodnight to Wen Shaoqian .

She leaned on the sofa, though she felt exhausted, she didn’t feel sleepy . She closed her eyes in the darkness, her sense of smell sharpened and she focused on her thoughts . Wrapped in only a bath towel, she could smell the leather from the sofa and was suddenly reminded of one particular night . If it wasn’t for her overindulgence that night, perhaps she wouldn’t be trapped with such mixed and confused feelings . She asked herself and found that she actually did have some feelings for him .

However, she told herself that it wasn’t love . It was endorphins at most, not even dopamine .

It seemed that it was getting harder and harder for her to accept a new relationship . She was afraid of commitment . She feared that her dependence on the person whom she subconsciously relied on the most would turn around hurt the person . It became difficult for her to imagine what kind of person she could accept next and how they would even meet in the first place .

But, she was clear that that person couldn’t be her one night stand .

Though she had already said good night to Wen Shaoqian, she simply couldn’t fall asleep .

After a few toss and turns, she got up to turn on her PS4 and picked a game randomly .

It was a newly released drama adventure game, , a scary and mysterious game .

The plot began with the death of twin sisters . Eight good friends returned to the lodge where the sisters had died and had to deal with evil spirits, called Wedigos . Every choice the player made would determine the survival or death of all 8 characters . Ye Qiao had gone through the game twice but due to the butterfly effects in the game, the characters didn’t survive at the end of the game .

She stubbornly wanted to get a perfect ending and repeatedly played the game over and over .

The light from the screen shone on Ye Qiao’s face . Once again a bloody face showed up on the screen accompanied by frightening sound effect .

She promptly quit from the game and turned off the PS4 .

It was 4 o’clock in the morning . Ye Qiao went back to her bedroom and untied the bath towel .

She lied on the bed naked . The chandelier in the shape of a wind chime on top of her bed reflected her naked body in its broken pieces .

There was a Weibo post for the promotion of the movie on her cell phone . She decided to take a look at it .

Immediately there were fans commenting underneath the post: “Staying up so late?”

“The goddess is also a night owl, hahaha~”

“Qiaoqiao, get more rest!”

Without knowing it, Ye Qiao also clicked open the site where Zhou Tingsheng had been posting those pet pictures . Unexpectedly, she found the green dot at the lower left corner of his icon was lit as well . It seemed that there was more than one sleepless person in this city . Though they were only less than 10 meters apart, they were nonetheless drifting further and further away from each other .

In reality, that person wasn’t in the place 10 meters away from Ye Qiao . He wasn’t even in this city at this time .
