Chapter 86: Eternal Life in Dreams

  The sky is clear and bright, with a joyful atmosphere throughout the Jin Yu Tang.

  A handsome man in blue clothes sat by the window, gazing at the faintly beautiful mist in the lotus pond.

  He usually likes mountains and waters, likes beautiful scenery, his eyes gaze at the clear blue water flowing slowly, this place is indeed quiet and beautiful.

  The pond under the window reflected the man's stunningly handsome figure, with a lazy posture, unmatched in beauty. At this moment, the man's gaze was distant, but he saw a flash of breathtakingly beautiful and seductive figure passing through the corridor. Then, his lips carried a hint of a smile that seemed to be both smiling and not smiling at the same time.

  He held a cup of wine with his fingertips, his eyebrows and eyes were like a painting, but his thoughts had drifted to a distant place.

  Nowadays, the new little demon girl is really beautiful and lovely. Yu Ran has been faintly fond of her since she saw her.

  Yu Ran slowly fanned himself, and couldn't help but wonder how he had ended up falling for this woman.

  He has always been cold and arrogant, but this time he actually moved his heart, it's really unbelievable.

  The ospreys are on the islets in the river. The modest and virtuous young lady, a gentleman's delight.

  Unconsciously, he watched the girl's figure walk into a room, and his heart suddenly became chaotic, pounding like a pool of spring water rippling, as if there was a willow cat slowly floating on his forehead!

  However, Yu Ran vaguely felt that this scene was somewhat familiar, as if it had happened before, and a bit illusory, but he didn't want to think about it.

  He had a strange feeling, as if everything in front of him would disappear after he thought about it too much.

  His gaze remained fixed on the door of that room, his eyes dazed.

  And he was surrounded by a misty aura, as if he were an immortal.

  However, the sunbeam in front of him was suddenly blocked, and a dark figure appeared beside him. It was Mr. Zhou who gently lifted his hem and sat down in front of him, revealing a faint smile on his face. His facial expression, as well as his emotions, were all very vague, slowly walking forward and saying: "Dye Gongzi, it's really nice weather today!"

  Yu Ran murmured: "The weather is indeed good, and the scenery inside Jintang Hall is also exceptionally good."

  Mr. Zhou fanned himself with his feather fan and said in a low voice, "Young master, you still seem to like Miss Yaoji?"

  "Of course." Yu Ran lowered his eyelids, something he wouldn't have admitted in the past.

  "However, good medicine tastes bitter but is beneficial for the illness, honest words are unpleasant to hear but beneficial for conduct. There's one thing that I must say immediately."

  "What's wrong?" Yu Ran swept his gaze and lightly lifted his leg, but it was unclear what he intended to do.

  He picked up the bone fan and gently placed it on his lips, the feeling of holding the fan in his hand was very familiar.

  Suddenly he turned his gaze, and the white jade pendant on that fan swayed gently. Yes, it was indeed his first fan.

  Yu Ran's expression changed slightly at this time.

  I remember the first fan was clearly destroyed, but what's going on with this fan in front of me?

  Is it a dream in front of me? Is it an illusion?

  But then, Mr. Zhou's tone carried a hint of gentleness as he said with great certainty: "What I want to say is that this demon girl is not suitable for you at all. Moreover, Wen Ren Gongzi likes the demon girl very much, and her fate has a heavy peach blossom curse. I'm afraid you can't compete with Wen Ren Gongzi, and in the end, you might even suffer from it." At this time, the soft sunlight shone on his face, making it difficult to discern whether there was any smile on his face.

  "Oh?" Yu's gaze fell lightly, and a misty haze gradually rose in his dark eyes, with a faint sense of dizziness in his heart.

  Deep down, Yu Ran didn't like others talking about her like this and even felt that these words were somewhat piercing to the ear.

  Who is Wen Renyi? Is Wen Renyi's Tao very impressive?

  Knitting his eyebrows, Dyeing Gongzi's beautiful lip corners lightly curved up.

  With a hint of disdain and some impatience.

  It seems like he has a kind of intuition that the other person has said it countless times before, but at this moment it's as if they're saying it for the first time.

  Yu's gaze drifted away, and she fell into a long silence, feeling as if everything before her seemed somewhat unreal.

  In front, misty and hazy, a beautiful flower blooms by the lake, at a glance, stunningly beautiful, delicate and elegant.

  He always felt that his mind was a bit confused, he couldn't help but stare blankly, yet didn't dare to think too much.

  Looking at everything in front of him, he felt a little reluctant in his heart. For now, he still wanted to stay with the demon girl for a while, and even more so, he didn't want to hear others mention that Wen Renyi was better than himself. So, he took a deep breath.

  At this time, Yu Ran raised her eyes and said lightly: "Why do you think I can't compete with Wen Renyi?"

  "Everyone says so." Mr. Zhou said with a faint smile.

  "Not bad, I think so too, Dye Young Master is still slightly inferior."

  On the other hand, the sunshine dimmed a little more, and someone appeared beside Yu Ran again. It was as if a gentle breeze had blown in, and it was a man wearing fishing net clothes who leaned in close to his ear and whispered with a smile: "Mr. Ran, I often see Miss Yao and Mr. Wen together."

  Mr. Zhou also said: "In my opinion, Miss Yaoji should like Wenren Gongzi's tone the most."

  The man wearing fishing net clothes smiled and said, "A cool guy will naturally have someone infatuated with him."

  Mr. Zhou stroked his feather fan and said slowly, "Since Dye Gongzi is not as good as Wenren Gongzi, why must you hold a grudge against him? Why must you think of her?"

  Another man said calmly: "Yes! Those who know the current situation are heroes, it's better to give up early."

  "The fairy maiden is so beautiful, even the young master of the Wen family likes her very much, right? The two of them are a match made in heaven."

  "A woman's heart is like a needle at the bottom of the ocean; trying to find it is futile and only leads to suffering. It's better to let go early on, let go early on."

  Two people, you and I, spoke alternately, but every word and sentence was a blow to Yu Ran's confidence.

  Yu Ran's narrow and long eyes opened slightly, a hint of annoyance rising in his heart. He then turned his brow and said with a light snort: "What's wrong with you two today? How could I be inferior to Wen Renyi? Have you forgotten what this young master does?"

  The man wearing fishnet attire helplessly spread his hands and smiled, "Dye Gongzi is indeed very confident."

  Yu Ran placed the fan on her lips, gazed at the two of them with a slanted glance, and let out a soft "hmm" before saying: "Actually, dealing with a woman is very simple. My book has written many methods about it. If this demonic girl is inexperienced and naive, I can take her to see the world's splendor. If she has gone through many hardships, I'll take her on romantic strolls under the moonlight, playing hard to get; if she's clever and wise, having seen many people, I'll pretend to be distant from her on the surface but actually entwine myself around her, making her anxious and surprised at every turn."

  "So you made a white dance dress for her yesterday, didn't you?" Mr. Zhou said with a smile.

  Recalling that white dance dress, Yu Ran's lips curled up, but she didn't say a word.

  He really put in a lot of thought.

  However, the man wearing fishnet clothes said: "It's good-looking, but just now I saw Mr. Wen walking towards the direction of the witch girl, and Mr. Ran, be careful not to let Mr. Wen take precedence over you, or else you'll end up making a wedding dress for someone else, which isn't a good thing."

  Yu Ran immediately frowned, "Why didn't you say so earlier?"

  "The other party said in a low voice: 'However, it's still possible for you to go now.'"

  Yu Ran stood up, and under the window, the ripples shimmered. On the lake, a blue, slender figure was reflected.

  And he leaped from the window and strode on water as if walking in mid-air, his figure floating gracefully.

  As he stepped into the house, he saw that beautiful person sitting in the room wearing a white dance dress. He was unintentionally stunned, but unfortunately, behind the screen, her slender body like jade, elegant and charming, was only vaguely visible, not very clear, but added a few more ambiguous beauty. However, that white dance dress was really too beautiful, it looked even better on the woman than if she wasn't wearing it. For half a moment, his gaze still lingered on that figure.

  Seeing the woman's figure, Yu Ran felt a sense of self-satisfaction in his heart and couldn't help but laugh softly.

  This time finally didn't let Wen Renyi take the lead?

  The woman had already walked out from behind the screen, her eyes fixed on Yu Ran, a smile playing on her lips, exuding charm and allure, as she asked: "Young Master Ran, I love your clothes, do you think they're beautiful?"

  "It's beautiful." Yu Ran looked at her, his heart beating rapidly without warning.

  The enchanting smile of the demon queen echoed, and she lightly hooked her finger at him, stretched out two lotus arms to wrap around Yu Ran's neck, slowly approaching him.

  The next moment, her enchanting red lips leaned against his ear and smiled lightly, stretching out both hands to encircle his chest.

  "What are you going to do?" Yu Ran asked in a low voice, somewhat incredulous and very excited.

  "The young master has said he likes me, and I also like the young master." She smiled coquettishly.

  What a stunning beauty, with charm and elegance in every move, her slender waist is like a willow, her long legs are straight and slender, her movements are gentle and elegant, her hair is as soft as clouds.

  However, as she approached him, Yu Ran felt that something was off.

  The woman in front of him smiled and gazed at him, with a charming smile on her lips that was beautiful but by no means the smile of a seductress.

  Her eyes were pitch black, her expression vague and ambiguous, lacking the clever charm of a seductress, and even more so, a hint of seriousness.

  At this time, the other party's slender fingertips slowly stroked his earlobe, as if bringing a beautiful melody to his body, preparing to unbutton his buttons. The enchanting lips slowly approached Yu Ran's lips. However, Yu Ran's dazed eyes gradually cleared up, and he felt a sudden chill in his heart. Su Mo would never do such a thing, absolutely not take the initiative to kiss him, and he immediately understood something. This woman looked very much like Su Mo, but she was not the real demon girl he liked.

  He suddenly reached out and grasped her wrist, taking two steps back to avoid her lips.

  In a daze, Yu Ran suddenly woke up and looked coldly at the demon girl, her eyes narrowing.

  He asked in a low voice: "You're not really a fox spirit, are you?"

  The demon queen's smile stiffened, her eyes gazing deeply at Yu Ran, slowly stroking her own cheek, and softly sighing: "Can't the young master have a beautiful dream? The present situation is much better than reality, at least I'm here with you, willing to be with you through thick and thin. Since you've discovered the truth, why must you speak it out loud? From now on, won't you be left alone?"

  "What did you say? What about one person?" Yu Ran asked with a puzzled expression.

  Her face lit up with an enchanting smile, she raised her index finger and whispered "hush", then slowly faded away, turning into a wisp of smoke that dispersed.

  Yu Ran was stunned, stretched out his hand to touch, and the demon girl in front of him suddenly disappeared into thin air.

  Just now a living person suddenly disappeared before my eyes, what's going on?

  Yu Ran stood in the house, looking around left and right, but that woman alone had disappeared without a trace.

  "Lord Dye? Why are you still here? Where is Miss Yaoji?" A man wearing a fishing net costume came forward and gently patted his shoulder.

  At this moment, Yu Ran suddenly turned her gaze towards the other person, with a hint of hesitation in her eyes and a tone of suspicion in her voice. "Xia Feng, didn't you leave Jin Yu Hall? Why are you still here? Are you really not aware?"

  Xia Feng's face was taken aback for a moment, then he smiled and nodded, "Indeed, nothing can be hidden from you, sir. Originally, being here wasn't so bad, at least you could truly spend the spring night with the woman you like. Why did you have to reveal the truth? The feeling of being the only sober one in a world of drunkards is not something ordinary people can bear. You are indeed trapped in a predicament."

  The next moment, Xiaofeng slowly retreated a step back and instantly disappeared from sight.

  Yu Ran took a deep breath and walked out of the house, striding quickly. Not far away, Mr. Zhou stood still, his blurry face watching him.

  He then turned to Mr. Zhou and said coldly: "Mr. Zhou, you're also fake, aren't you?"

  "Lord Dye, what makes you say this?" Mr. Zhou seemed somewhat perplexed.

  "You're with them, of course, a perfect match. And the tea you usually like to taste has changed flavor, hasn't it?"

  "It seems that you are indeed a clever person, but it is always painful for clever people to live. You'd better take care of yourself." Mr. Zhou bowed slowly towards him and then retreated, disappearing instantly.

  Afterwards, Yu Ran walked through every place in Jinyu Hall and found one flaw after another.

  Then many people disappeared, one after another, all the people in front of me disappeared.

  Finally, with a mix of emotions in his heart, he strode out of the courtyard, gazing at the scenery inside and outside the Golden Jade Hall. He said coldly, "I was clearly in the Qi State's sea domain, clearly together with Qingqing and Shizun. Why did the Golden Jade Hall appear? Is all this fake?"

  In an instant, everything before his eyes turned into clouds and smoke, disappearing without a trace.

  He stood in a desolate place, and there was actually no one around him, surrounded by a vast expanse of nothingness.

  The cold wind howls, carrying a sense of desolation and bleakness.

  The sky gradually darkened, and the surroundings were filled with strange cries. The voices were full of despair and resentment, like a monster that seemed to be devouring dreams, making Yu Ran feel cold sweat all over her body.

  He gradually realized where he was? Gradually knew what he had encountered?

  Not bad, this is the illusion caused by the treasure of Musou Castle, eternal life in a dream, a fleeting dream.

  It was just a moment's sleep, but I spent a lifetime in dreams.

  Is it a beautiful dream? Is it a nightmare? But once you realize that in your own dreams, you will face decades, hundreds, thousands, or even tens of thousands of years of solitary loneliness in an isolated world, being alone in the dream is even more terrifying than death.

  This thing is used to deal with those stubborn enemies, as long as the opponent falls asleep, they will fall into the world of dreams.

  If someone is too clever and finds themselves in a dream, the people around them disappear, but they find that they have not left for thousands of years, from then on they are alone.

  If foolish people are in a dream, they will be drunk for life and death, die after birth, and live after death.

  Life and death, entwined in a dream, forever tangled with others.

  But after he truly woke up, reality and illusion were indistinguishable from each other.

  In short, for every individual, a dream of ten thousand years can be said to be an extremely cruel torture.

  Although it's just a snap of the fingers, yet one can see countless scenes in dreams. Everything before one's eyes is false, but still one must go through the vicissitudes of life, turning and changing for hundreds, thousands, tens of thousands of years.

  Life is like a dream, and dreams are like life. But someone as clever as him should be able to see through the facade of his dreams.

  At this time, Yu Ran continued to have a headache, and it seemed that no one else could wake him up, fearing that he would never be able to wake up from his dream.

  He suddenly had an extremely painful thought that her mother might want him to fall into a dream and gradually like another woman.

  Or let him be lonely for a thousand years in the yellow millet dream, experience the vicissitudes of life, wake up and change his mood, completely forget the deeply loved woman.

  Thinking of this, Yu Ran's eyes revealed a hint of unwillingness.

  "Xīan xīan." Suddenly, a gentle voice of a woman sounded, that kind and pleasant voice penetrated the dream, apparently already waking Yu Xian from her illusion.

  At this time, Yu Ran's eyes were dull and she felt extremely tired all over her body.

  "Ran Ran, what kind of woman do you like? What do you call her? Tell your mother?" The woman immediately leaned in close to his ear and asked softly.

  "She is Qingqing." Yu Ran's body moved slightly, still without opening her eyes, and she was still shaken by the dream she had just had.

  "Who are you, dear?" The woman's tone was somewhat puzzled and perplexed.

  "She is the one who turns the world upside down, with an enchanting appearance, the seductress of Jinyutang." Yu Ran's tone and expression were languid.

  Jinyutang's demon girl? Madame Yu raised her beautiful phoenix eyes, and a hint of incredulity flowed out from within.

  The next moment, she suddenly stretched out her hand and slapped Yu Ran's head heavily.

  Yu Ran immediately felt a stinging pain and opened her eyes wide, "Why did you hit me?"

  "How do you know it's real if I don't hit you? How do you know you're not talking in your sleep?" Madam Yu coldly stared at him, "I'm a careful person, what if I thought you were awake but accidentally let you sleep for tens of thousands of years? Wouldn't you forget even me when you wake up? Wouldn't that be a case of trying to steal a chicken but ending up losing the rice instead? As a son not recognizing his mother has happened before. But this time, I'm giving you a light punishment as a warning. If in the future you really don't listen to my words, then I'll let you sleep for hundreds of years in a dream of yellow millet."

  Yu Ran heard this and couldn't help but touch his nose, then slowly rubbed his forehead.

  Madam Yu slowly got up, and all that could be seen was her slender figure, swaying and enchanting. In her hand, she held a small box, inside which was the Long Life of Dreams, the Yellow Millet Dream.

  Yu Ran's gaze swept around, and she blinked her eyes, unable to believe that she was actually on a ship in Wudou City.

  He furrowed his brow, and it wasn't until after a while that he completely woke up from his dream state. He remembered that after falling asleep, he didn't know anything else, so what exactly happened afterwards?

  Suddenly, his expression was extremely strange, and he had an inexplicable feeling in his heart.

  Wasn't I sold out by Master?

  That exiled immortal man, refined and elegant, warm and jade-like. Moreover, he is a world-renowned number one prodigy, who saved the world from water and fire 100 years ago, no matter what, will not be associated with the word "swindler", and anyone who sees Shī Yuàn will absolutely not think that he is a shameless and despicable person.

  A man like Shī Yuàn must be very wise, this is beyond doubt.

  Since he himself was not in the small building of Shi Yin, Mr. Yin probably didn't want to cause trouble!

  So he probably handed himself and the demon girl over.

  He was startled and hastily asked: "Mother, where is Miss Yaoji?"

  "You're really obsessed with that little witch, even calling out her name in your dreams." Madam Yu's eyes revealed a hint of mockery.

  "Young lady didn't come with me? What happened while I was asleep?" Yu Ran Sheng carefully asked, afraid of provoking the woman in front of him.

  "It's nothing, I only saw you alone at that time." Madam Yu sneered, "However, I also want to see that demon girl."

  Nowadays, the reputation of Youji is getting farther and bigger.

  Madam Yu had certainly heard of the demoness of Jinyutang, and she had also heard that this demoness had thoroughly defeated Dingtai of Baohuatang.

  Even that demoness didn't put the leader of Fengyue Boundary in her eyes, and it seemed to be an extremely beautiful and proud woman.

  The master of Jinyutang and the demon queen of Jinyutang, this is a case of near water tower first gets the moon!

  Logically speaking, they also have some common ground.

  However, overall speaking, the identity of Youji is indeed difficult to match with the young master of Musou Castle.

  At the thought of this, Madame Yu's heart immediately fell into a dilemma.

  However, Madam Yu quickly walked out of her depressed mood and said coldly: "In any case, you have reached the age of marriage. The lord of Wushuang City now only has one son, and countless people are eyeing that supreme position. Therefore, Yanran, you should also give birth to children early, arrange a few concubines for you, sleep with them for a few nights, those women will give birth after ten months, and it's good to cut off some people's despicable thoughts early."

  Yu Ran slowly sat up, a sly smile spreading across her face as she lazily said, "Mother, why not arrange some consorts for Father the King? If you give birth to some younger brothers soon, then there won't be any problems."

  Madam Yu's eyes flashed with anger, and she immediately stretched out her hand, slapping Yu Ran's face again.

  Yu Ran hastily shifted her body to one side and grabbed the wrist of Yu Fu Ren, "Mother, I just wanted to tell you that what you don't want for yourself, don't do to others."

  "What did you say?" Madam Yu asked coldly.

  Yu Ran let out a sigh and slowly said, "In this world, it's true that marriage is about matching doors, but if a man can't marry the woman he loves for his entire life, what's the point? Just like Father, marrying you was enough for him, and back then, you two also went against the crowd to be together. So, I absolutely cannot casually be with another woman."

  Madam Huan's eyes deepened immediately, and as a woman, she felt that her son's words made some sense.

  At this time, Yu Ran secretly took a look at the expression of the lady, seeing that her expression was calm and gentle. He then continued to speak seriously: "And since my identity as the Young Master of Wuduo City is already high enough, why bother with marrying a daughter from another noble family? Besides, I am already the lofty Young Master of Wuduo City, so I can marry any woman in the world. Why can't I marry Miss Yaoji?"

  Madam Yun nodded, feeling that her son's words were truly moving.

  Besides, she has a bit of rebelliousness in her bones and feels that those aristocrats who attach importance to family background are more for their own benefit.

  So, who is really considering their own children?

  Alas, which of these aristocratic young ladies has a comfortable life?

  So she had no choice but to make it happen.

  After all, she didn't want to arrange a messy marriage for her own son either.

  At this time, Mrs. Yu asked curiously: "Since you like the little witch girl, does that little witch girl really have many advantages?"

  Yu Ran said: "Mother is the woman with the most advantages in my heart, and the demon girl can't compare to you."

  Madam Huan knew that her son was trying to curry favor with her and couldn't help but say, "You're really glib-tongued. In that case, I'll go ask for her hand in marriage."

  Yu Ran smiled and knew that Yu Fu was already leaning towards him, but it was hard to say: "The woman I like in my heart is only her, but she has already married Wen Ren Yi."

  Of course, he has one more thing to say - the hatred of stealing a wife is unbearable and cannot be forgiven.

  Madam Yu took a cold breath, unexpectedly, her son's taste was really too heavy, Madam Yu suddenly became speechless.

  Unexpectedly, the demoness... was actually a married woman and also the wife of her cousin-in-law Wen Renyi.

  Even if that demon girl was a woman of easy virtue she would have accepted, unfortunately she is already married.

  Madam is extremely loyal to marriage and believes that men and women should be responsible for each other.

  Ever since she married the lord of Musou Castle, many women have been eyeing her position with envy and malice, each one more shameless and despicable than the last, their schemes endless, which is why she has become increasingly overbearing and ruthless.

  In short, she loathes those home wreckers who are known as the "third person" in a family.

  Then, Madam Yu's face sank immediately. "Son, you can't be unscrupulous as a person. You can make a mess outside, do whatever Golden Jade Hall, write books, write plays, act in plays, but the one thing you absolutely cannot do is be a mistress, and even more so, you cannot ruin other people's families."

  Yu Ran's eyes narrowed immediately, and he said in a cold voice: "Mother, you actually don't know what happened. It was all because of Wen Renyi's despicable and shameless behavior that he used some underhanded methods to snatch the demon girl from me. His actions are truly detestable. So, I plan to break them up soon and use his own methods against him, letting Wen Renyi know that this young master is not someone to be trifled with."

  "Alright, I know you've always liked to grab things from your older brother since you were young. Now that he's married, what are you still causing trouble for? You even want to steal his woman."

  Yu Ran's eyebrows furrowed as she said, "Mother, I truly love that demon girl."

  "Mrs. Huan angrily said: "Xiao San is really disgusting, using the banner of true love to destroy people's marital relationships! Each and every one of them wants to take advantage of the situation, if you have the ability, go find someone better for yourself! I despise these kinds of people the most. If you were my son, you would be honest and obedient. In short, forget about the matter with Yao Ji after this."

  "Girl, didn't you just say you'd help me?"

  "Son, ruining someone's marriage will bring heavenly wrath and eternal infamy even after death. You'd better reflect on your actions while you're still alone!"

  "Mother, mother——" Yu Ran looked at her with some incredulity.

  Yu Lu, Madame Yu had already stood up and walked out of the room, locking the door behind her. She leaned lightly against the wall and said coldly: "Very good, I didn't expect such a thing to happen to my son, actually wanting to make a move on his cousin's wife, stealing love with a knife, it's getting more and more outrageous. In short, this heart disease of his, this palace will definitely find an opportunity to eliminate."

  The maids standing around were motionless, thinking to themselves: It seems that Madame is angry again.

  "Huang Liang, bring me a dream." At this time, Madame Yu's gaze turned coldly to the female attendant beside her.

  "Ma'am." The maid carefully brought it over, "Will you be needing anything else, ma'am?"

  "All right, I know Yu Ran's temper and character, so he must be taught a lesson."

  The maid said in a low voice: "Although this is a treasure of the Jade Twin City, it's not something good after all. Lady Yu, it's better not to let the young master use this thing easily."

  Madam Yu's face turned cold and she frowned: "No need to think of ways to make that stinky little brat put down his own thoughts."

  The maid said: "I think, Master Yan likes Miss Yaoji, if not..."

  The Empress coldly stared at her, "Liking is not allowed either, so this time I will use it, and I will also give it to Yu Ran and Yao Ji together. Let them meet in their dreams, and then let Yao Ji resolutely reject Yu Ran, making him completely abandon the matter."

  The waitress lowered her eyes and softly replied "yes".

  Madam Yu rubbed her forehead, she could only pin her hopes on this wild dream, which might make her son thoroughly understand his position, and perhaps later he would gain some insight. After all, Yu Ran was the young master of Wusou City, but in this world, not everything can be easily obtained.

  In short, the youth of young people is just those fleeting days.

  Men should focus on what's right, being overly sentimental about romance is not a good thing.

  "Alright, to help this young man, I'll have to bring that fox spirit girl into the dream as well. Now, I still need to find her and arrange a miserable encounter for the two of them. Let's make them the children of two families with a deep-seated grudge against each other. Who knows how they'll interact in the dream? Perhaps they'll fall deeply in love or become sworn enemies, hating each other to the bone. Either way, when they wake up, it may all seem like an illusion, but their feelings will have changed forever."

  ……

  It was night, Su Mo slowly opened his charming and misty eyes, and suddenly felt a dizziness in his heart.

  She dreamed again of her past life with Shifu, and their life together was so carefree and leisurely.

  At this moment, she gently rubbed her eyes, and in front of her was actually her bedroom in the Ink Pavilion. Su Mo hurriedly sat up, momentarily disoriented.

  She lowered her eyes and took a glance at the clothes on her body, which was exactly the dress that Mrs. Fang had prepared for her after their wedding.

  She took a slight breath, knowing it was just a dream. She tidied up her hair and got up to take a walk outside. The sky had already darkened, but the sign on the house still read "Shiying Xiaozhu" in four characters.

  It was just a dream after all! Su Mo couldn't help but laugh at himself.

  "Has the little demon girl awakened?" At this time, a elegant and pleasant voice came over, only to see Shī Yuè take two steps forward, softly asking.

  "Master Ling, I actually fell asleep, is Yu Ran still sleeping?" Su Mo looked at him deeply.

  "He's already gone." said Shi Yan with a faint smile.

  "Left?" Su Mo wondered.

  "When something happens, a man who always avoids it is not good. What needs to be faced should be faced." Shi Ying said with a smile, "I think Yu Shizhu has probably figured out this truth."

  Su Mo nodded slightly, but didn't think that he would end up staying behind alone again, once more being alone with Shi Ying.

  At this moment, she raised her charming eyes and asked: "Mr. Lian, may I borrow some of your device room?"

  "Come along, then." The instructor stepped forward half a step and made as if to guide her waist with his right hand.

  Digression

  Xiao Ran, your mother is trying to set you up on a blind date.
