"Midnight Chat" 

"Hah!" Lai Jiayi abruptly woke up. The girl clutched her chest as sweat covered her forehead and back. Her chest went up and down as she tried to catch her breath. 

'....was it a nightmare?' 

Lai Jiayi squeezed her eyes. She inhaled and exhaled until Yaya turned off his sleeping mode and came to the girl's side. 

"What's wrong, quack? I heard your voice…" Yaya looked at the girl who was sitting on the bed with another girl sleeping beside her. 

Lai Jiayi took the bed area nearest to the study desk. Shan Liang was currently sound asleep right next to her. 

"A nightmare." Lai Jiayi answered weakly. Her bubbly self disappeared, and one could only see a pale-faced girl still trying to calm her ragged breath. 

"Nightmare, quack?" Yaya tilted his head. He looked at the dim surroundings with only a few light bulbs illuminating it. The bedroom was currently a bit dark and silent. 

It was already midnight.
