After My Sleep Was Stolen, I Uncovered the Truth

share time: 2025-11-10 06:01:07

27-year-old illustrator Jian Ning has recently fallen into a nightmare of "stolen sleep": she falls asleep every night only to wake up sharply at 2 a.m., with an unread "Dream Pawnshop" extraction record on her phone. Her energy drains rapidly until she accidentally discovers that her childhood friend Gu Shen's startup progress perfectly aligns with her insomnia duration—for every hour she loses sleep, Gu Shen's project gains a little more "luck". When Jian Ning confronts Gu Shen with evidence, he reveals a shocking secret: "The Dream Pawnshop was made by your missing brother. He said only using your sleep can retrieve the memory you lost—five years ago, you got into a car accident saving me, fell into a coma for three months, and forgot everything about me when you woke up. My brother said your sleep holds the key to restoring your memory... But why do I always feel like he's lying?"
