Lin Mingyue hesitated before she knocked on the door . She entered once the person inside gave her permission to come in . "Doctor Yan Han, are you still busy?"

The female doctor looked up when she heard Lin Mingyue's voice and smiled . "Hey, Mingyue . What brings you here?"

Mingyue lifted the takeaway lunch in her hand higher . "I met your a.s.sistant in the canteen . She said you hadn't had your lunch yet . So I came to bring you food . "

Doctor Yan laughed . "Come in . Sit down . We haven't hung out together for a while . "

Lin Mingyue closed the door behind her, placed the takeaway box on the table, and sat down . She watched the way her friend salivated as she looked at the dishes and laughed . "If you know you're hungry, why didn't you take a short break and have your lunch?"

"Don't say it," Doctor Yan picked up the chopsticks and clipped the braised chicken . "I saw a patient today, and he took a longer time than he should . The patient condition was not too good . It took me a while to let him calm down . What about you? Why are you not busy?"

"I have surgery next morning," Lin Mingyue said helplessly .

"Right, are you free this weekend? Let's go shopping together . "

"Sorry . I'm going hiking with my sister and her friends . "

Doctor Yan was disappointed . The two talked a bit about work and other things as Lin Mingyue accompanied her for lunch . Doctor Yan started to clean up her table once she finished . "I almost forgot," Doctor Yan said . "Have you been having that recurring dreams?"

Lin Mingyue and Doctor Yan Han started interning in the hospital around the same time . Because of that, the two was quite close . Once Mingyue heard that Doctor Yan was from Health and Mental Department, she had asked about her recurring dreams .

"I still have those recurring dreams," Mingyue admitted .

Doctor Yan was surprised to hear her words . "What? It has been going on for years . Mingyue, this is not normal . How about I booked you for a session?"

Lin Mingyue waved a hand . "That's alright . I attended a few session a few years ago, and nothing worked . "

"How about I refer you to my professor?"

"No need . Those dreams were not harmful . Besides, the frequency of this dream is getting lesser . "

"Don't say that . In a psychological aspect, it might be harmful . "

Seeing that her friend's expression had turned darker, Mingyue immediately agreed . "Then, I'll just follow your suggestion . " she hesitated as she saw her friend wrote something in her book .

"What's troubling you?" Doctor Yan said . She lifted her head and watched Lin Mingyue with a scrutinizing gaze . From her friend's body language, Yan Han could guess that Mingyue had some worries .

"Yan Han, actually in the past few months, I keep seeing an image in my brain . "

Doctor Yan frowned . "How long have you been having this? What is it about?"

"Well, since two, three months ago," Lin Mingyue admitted . She lowered her head to hide her embarra.s.sment . "I keep seeing the silhouette of a man . I cannot see his face, but when he showed up in my head, I had a feeling that he should be familiar with me . "

"I know what it is . " Doctor Yan leaned on her chair and smiled teasingly .

Lin Mingyue stared at her friend with her eyes wide . "You know?"

Doctor Yan nodded . "Mingyue ah, Mingyue, this is a sign . A sign that tells you it's time for you to find a boyfriend and start dating . "

Mingyue's face darkened at Yan Han's words . "Get lost!"

After chatting for another five minutes, Lin Mingyue walked out of her friend's office . She took a deep breath and leaned on the wall to compose herself . Mingyue let out a chuckle as she recalled how Yan Han had told her that it was time for her to start dating .

Dating?

This was not the first time someone had suggested her to find a boyfriend . Even her adopted parents were worried that she had never shown any interest in any man .

It was not that she never give a thought of dating . But, every time Mingyue thought that she should give a man a chance, her heart cannot accept it . Her heart wanted her to wait until that someone she was waiting for appeared .

Mingyue closed her eyes briefly . Her mind showed the image of the faceless man again . This time, he stood closer to her as if he was going to pull her into his embrace . However, his face stopped just next to her ear .

"Mingyue…"

Lin Mingyue opened her eyes with a jolt . Her heart was beating rapidly — the voice . The man's voice sounded so real! Again, her heart ached . Her heart screamed that she missed him . But it was absurd! She did not even know who that man was and how he looked like!

Back in Da Cheng

Princess Lingchen hastened her pace as she headed to the Emperor's Palace . Once she arrived outside the hall, the Crown Princess urged the eunuch to tell the Emperor that she had an important matter to discuss .

After almost an hour of waiting, the Emperor finally allow the Crown Princess to enter . Princess Lingchen walked before her father and greeted him as according to the rules .

"I heard that you have an important matter to discuss with me," the Emperor said . "You don't have to tell me . I already know what you were going to ask . "

"Then, Your Majesty-"

The Emperor raised a hand to stop his daughter from saying anything . "I have decided . We will cancel the arrangement with Prince Huo Yuan . I will let your mother arrange your engagement banquet . And you will be engaged to the Emperor of Qian Rong next month . "

Princess Lingchen's face paled as she heard the Emperor's words . "Forgive my impertinence, Your Majesty, but you cannot do this!"

"What is it? Don't tell me that you actually have feelings for Prince Huo Yuan of Western Zhou?"

"That's not it," Princess Lingchen sputtered .

"Do you have any problem with the Emperor of Qian Rong? I thought your relations.h.i.+p with him was quite good . "

"But mother had told me what the Emperor of Qian Rong had promised to give us in exchange for my hand in marriage . "

The Emperor laughed as he watched his daughter . "I did not expect that the young Emperor of Qian Rong would be so generous . He's willing to enter our family and hand over Qian Rong as dowry . "
