“What did you say?” Xing Yunzhi asked in surprise in the bathroom, “She said she also enters this world after falling asleep every night?”
In order to prevent Su Lili from becoming suspicious, Cheng Jinyang secretly took Xing Yunzhi, whom she could not see, into the bathroom on the pretext of going to the bathroom, and then locked the door.
“Don’t be stupid.” Cheng Jinyang reminded her, “pretend that she is still living well in a certain world, and just meets me in her sleep every night… Don’t you think this is probably a beautiful thing woven by my subconscious? Is it an illusion? After all, dreams reflect people’s deepest desires.”
“Indeed.” Xing Yunzhi looked at him with a strange expression, “But why is this analysis so weird coming from your mouth? Why can you remain so calm and rational after meeting Su Lili?”
“Is there anything wrong with me staying calm?” Cheng Jinyang touched his chin, “Then what should my reaction be in your impression? (Pretending) Ah! Lili, you’re not dead. That’s great. We’ll never do it again. Separate…is this like this?”
Xing Yunzhi retreated silently: “Your pretentiousness is so disgusting, stay away from me.”
Cheng Jinyang:………………
“Anyway.” Xing Yunzhi asked, “What do you think we should do next?”
“Azhi, you actually asked me for my advice!” Cheng Jinyang was a little surprised.
“Nonsense, after all, this is the dream you have spent three years in. Shouldn’t you know more about it than I do?” Xing Yunzhi said angrily, “If you dare to call me Ah Zhi again, I will really kill you!”
Cheng Jinyang shut up immediately. In this dream, the dead can be resurrected, so Miss Ah Zhi probably really dares to be cruel to herself.
He thought for a long time and said slowly:
“Let’s treat this as a safe house for now.”
As a safe house, it means that for the time being, it is mainly about killing monsters in the outside world and purifying the blood concentration. As for the secret of Su Lili, let’s study it slowly later.
Xing Yunzhi thought so too, but she still had some doubts and asked tentatively:
“But. Even if you believe that this Su Lili was imagined in your dream because you subconsciously wanted her to live… I always feel that you seem to be a little unfeeling towards her.”
Girls are always sensitive. She noticed that although Cheng Jinyang was extremely shocked at first, he soon got along with Su Lili as if nothing happened.
Note that this is a normal form of getting along, not like a long-awaited reunion with a childhood sweetheart with deep feelings who has come back from the dead.
Although he is not usually an emotional person, he is too calm and ruthless in this regard. You must know that he suffered from severe depression due to the death of his parents and childhood sweetheart!
Is this reasonable?
Cheng Jinyang was also speechless. Wouldn’t it be better for me to be ruthless towards Su Lili? As my fiancée, do you really want to be worn by a dead man wearing a colored hat?
“Well, it’s not heartless, it’s because I have to do this.” He could only explain, “If I miss the false good memories too much, I’m afraid that I will lose the courage to return to reality and completely sink into this dream.”
“Alas.” After hearing what he said, Xing Yunzhi was speechless and could only turn all her feelings into a faint sigh.
“I want to take a bath.” She looked towards the shower room and said suddenly.
No! Do you also need to take a shower in the nightmare?
Cheng Jinyang sighed. However, Su Lili was outside, and he couldn’t stay here with Ah Zhi for too long, so he could only warn, “Then you have to hurry up!”
When he left the bathroom, he saw that the thick curtains on the balcony had been drawn back, and Su Lili was curled up on the sofa watching TV.
She wore a light green dress, revealing her white and slender collarbones, shoulders and arms, as well as her smooth and smooth legs. She wore a cute rabbit hairpin on her head, and her long black hair was spread around her shoulders, giving people a I feel like a little fairy running out of the forest.
Cheng Jinyang came to sit next to her, grabbed a pillow and put it on his lap, and asked:
“Xiao Li, you said you knew you were dreaming? Then… what was it like when you woke up? Can you tell me?”
Su Lili leaned forward and rested her head on the pillow in his arms (then Cheng Jinyang realized that the act of holding the pillow was a tacit understanding between the original owner and her).
She shook her head and said:
“There’s nothing to say. Reality is boring. Although this dream is dangerous, as long as I hide in your house and don’t go out, it’s still acceptable.”
“Boring?” Cheng Jinyang was a little curious, “What’s it like specifically?”
“That’s it…” Su Lili hesitated and suddenly smiled, “Forget it, why are I telling you this in the dream?”
Cheng Jinyang:? ? ?
You are the person in my dream, and you say that I am the person in your dream? Yay, double nesting doll!
Of course, he was not stupid enough to conclude that Su Lili was still alive somewhere in this world and only met him in a dream based on these words.
One of the evidences is that the original owner witnessed Su Lili being devoured by a demon; the second evidence… there is no evidence that she is alive, which is the most powerful evidence at present.
In the past, Cheng Jinyang had a roommate when he was in college before time travel. He dreamed that the goddess confessed to him.
Then the guy didn’t believe it, thinking that he was dreaming, and kept asking the goddess about various daily details, and the goddess answered patiently one by one with a dumbfounded look.
In the end, the guy finally believed it, yelled “yes”, then pounced on the goddess and gnawed her in all kinds of ways, even before she took off her clothes… she woke up.
So here’s the paradox of dreams: they possess your memories, know your weaknesses, and reflect your deepest desires. It is so easy to be fooled, and there is almost no better way than to believe that “this is a dream”.
Therefore, Cheng Jinyang asked himself: What would happen if Su Lili was really not dead and still living somewhere in this world?
Nothing will happen.
He has only been in this world for three years, but Su Lili has lived with the original owner for more than ten years. It is too easy to get along with him. So when I saw Su Lili for the first time, the remaining emotions in my body were surprise, but intellectually, I was only frightened.
Of course, it’s not without its good points. If the time is longer, such as 6 or even 10 years, then Cheng Jinyang’s changes can be explained as the “price of growth.” Based on this unlikely situation, if he had a choice, then of course he hoped that Su Lili could survive. After all, she was a cute and beautiful girl anyway.
Therefore, Cheng Jinyang’s attitude towards her is very complicated and cannot be explained clearly in a few words. Regardless of whether he is dead or alive, he still hopes to confirm it first, so that he can consider whether to respond later… But this kind of uncertain Schrödinger state is very embarrassing.
While he was deep in thought, he heard Su Lili say quietly:
“You seem to have changed a lot…you never showed such a thoughtful expression before.”
Cheng Jinyang:! ! !
It is indeed a nightmare, what are you afraid of?
“What about you?” He tried to change the subject, deliberately lowering his voice to reflect the vicissitudes of life, “Haven’t you also changed?”
Su Lili looked at him in surprise, and then smiled with a clear expression.
“I’ve finished washing, let’s…” Xing Yunzhi pushed open the door of the toilet and saw Cheng Jinyang sitting on the sofa, with soft cushions on his legs and a head-shaped concave impression on the surface, “Oh ,hehe.”
There was obviously an invisible person lying on it.
“That.” Cheng Jinyang could only cough in embarrassment after being caught in front of Miss Azhi, “Xiao Li, I have to leave.”
“Can’t you stay a little longer?” Su Lili sat up and asked anxiously, “It’s very dangerous outside after all…”
However, Cheng Jinyang had already stood up and said with a smile: “Just stay here and don’t go out. We’ll see you next time.”
Then he and Xing Yunzhi came to the balcony and jumped down without hesitation.
“Ouch!” After landing, Cheng Jinyang hurriedly rolled to relieve his strength and almost sprained his ankle. He jumped up and shouted, “Ah Zhi! Why don’t you give me the lightening technique!”
“Ask your Su Lili to serve you!” Xing Yuanzhi gritted her teeth and strangled his neck, “And you have to tell me several times not to call me Ah Zhi! Go to hell!”
