Chapter 341 Dream Drowning
Chapter 341 Dream Drowning
Time flies, Xi Yeming has been trapped in this strange and unpredictable dream for countless long years. Day after day, he gradually gets used to this dreamlike, real and fake life.
At first, Xi Yeming struggled desperately, trying to find a way to escape from this illusory world, but after countless attempts ended in failure, his heart gradually became numb. Now, facing this seemingly endless dream life, Xi Yeming can take it calmly and is no longer as panicked and helpless as before.
Here, everything is so unreal, yet so vivid. Strange scenes and familiar characters keep appearing before his eyes, as if it is a never-ending fantasy drama. Xi Yeming, like a passive audience, can only accept it all silently, unable to control his own destiny.
"I am back!"
Xi Yeming rushed home with his bag and went straight to his room.
"Have you taken off your shoes before entering the house?"
Milian Alu shouted while washing dishes in the kitchen.
"Take it off!"
Xi Yeming’s response came down from the second floor.
When Xi Yeming turned the doorknob and returned to the bedroom, the first thing he saw was his aunt sitting on his bed.
"Are you spying on me again today?"
"I'm not watching you every day."
Xi Leqiu's legs were hanging in the air under the bed, not caring at all about the difference between men and women or the order of age. She was still full of joy when she saw Xi Yeming coming back.
Xi Leqiu would accompany Xi Yeming every day to prevent this kid from really finding a way to escape from the dream. Even if all the magic was taken away, Xi Leqiu still had to be wary of his little nephew.
"Do you want to do your homework?"
Xi Leqiu is very concerned about Xi Yeming's dream life. After all, her original intention is to make Xi Yeming fall in love with the illusions in the dream and give up returning to reality.
"I finished writing it long before I got home. I'll just play some games tonight."
Like a real student, Xi Yeming didn't know how much he still missed the reality.
"Do you want your aunt to play with you?" Xi Leqiu came up behind Xi Yeming and whispered in his ear.
Xi Yeming showed an expression that said "that's enough". "Forget it. Auntie, you always beat me. It's boring every time I play with you."
"Haha, I hope you understand my aunt's abilities."
Xi Leqiu's every frown and smile seemed to be pampering Xi Yeming. In the eyes of an unaware bystander, they must be a good pair of aunt and nephew.
In order to improve his gaming experience, Xi Yeming contacted several of his friends.
Kasong: No time.
Su Caibai: I’m still reviewing.
Leo: I'm in the gym.
Scott: I’m not good at competitive games (? ? ?? ).
Torena: Psycho?
Bianca: Play less games.
After receiving replies one by one, Xi Yeming was nowhere to be found.
Xi Yeming complained angrily, "Why is it so hard for me to find someone to play games with today?"
"Don't you have a friend named Gaoxiatian Zhixiang? Why don't you look for him?" Xileqiu was seriously giving advice to his nephew.
"I'm afraid my blood pressure will go up if I play games with him."
Xi Leqiu continued to give advice, "Isn't there another girl named Chris?"
"Aunt, have you ever heard that silence is golden? Stop talking."
Unless it was necessary, Xi Yeming didn't want to rekindle his relationship with Chris, not to mention that the Chris in the dream seemed to have some unspeakable relationship with him.
"Forget it, forget it. I'll read a book today."
Xi Yeming took a quick look, took out a book from the bookshelf, lay on the bed and started reading. For him, such a day was quite boring.
But the more he read the book, the more he couldn't concentrate. Xi Yeming glanced to the side and saw Xi Leqiu meditating on the bed through the mirror in the bedroom.
Xi Leqiu also noticed her nephew's little tricks. She smiled at Xi Yeming in the mirror and didn't care about these little tricks.
Xi Yeming, who was seen, consciously withdrew his gaze. In fact, he was still looking for an opportunity to escape from the dream in one fell swoop, but time passed by little by little, and not only could he not get the magic back, he had no chance at all.
"Ugh."
Xi Yeming threw the book aside and jumped off the bed.
"Where to?"
"I can't be idle. I'll go see if my sister has done her homework."
If there is anything good about dreams for Xi Yeming, it is naturally that they make up for past regrets. Here, Xi Yeming has the identity of a biological brother, so naturally he puts on the airs of an elder brother.
Xi Leqiu smiled and had no intention of following. Since Xi Yeming was so obedient to the settings in the dream, that would definitely be the best. She didn't have to keep pursuing the matter and avoid making Xi Yeming annoyed.
As night fell, it was time for dinner. Xi Yeming and Xia came down from the second floor together.
Milian Ailu carefully brought the carefully cooked meals to the table one by one, arranging them neatly. At this time, she looked up and saw her two children slowly walking down the stairs. A gentle smile immediately appeared on her face, and she gently reminded them: "Children, you came at the right time! The meal is ready, go wash your hands and get ready to eat."
Lucia, who was standing by to help, also smiled and agreed, "Yes, brother and sister, uncle has something to do today and can't come back to eat with us, so it's just the four of us eating together."
Hearing this, Xi Yeming simply said, "Yes." Then he followed his mother's instructions and washed his hands obediently. After washing his hands, he walked briskly to the dining table and sat down.
This family has always had the habit of watching TV while eating, so a wall-mounted TV is specially installed in the restaurant. Whenever the family sits around the table and enjoys delicious food, the TV program will occasionally become the focus of everyone's attention. For Xi Yeming, who doesn't like to talk much while eating, this TV is simply a savior. Because it can make the entire dining process relatively quiet, there will not be too many topics for small talk, which just satisfies the little wish deep in his heart.

On a quiet night, the moonlight sprinkled on the balcony like water. Xicheng stood quietly, looking at the vast starry night. The evening breeze blew, gently brushing her fair face, as if a gentle hand was gently caressing her, clearly outlining her beautiful and delicate features.
At this moment, a light sound of footsteps came from behind. It turned out to be her elder sister Xi Shi who was walking slowly towards her. She looked at her sister in a trance and said softly, "Why are you standing here alone? It's time to eat." Then, Xi Shi walked to Xi Cheng's side and looked into the distance along her line of sight.
Xicheng turned her head slightly, a helpless smile appeared on the corner of her mouth, and replied: "Sister, I'm just... thinking about Ye Ming." Thoughts flooded into her mind like a tide. Recalling the scene when she reunited with Ye Ming, complex emotions surged in her heart.
Xi Shi patted Xi Cheng's shoulder gently and comforted her, "Don't think too much, sister. Sometimes things are just so unexpected, but no matter what, we have to face them bravely. Thinking more will not help. Let's go eat first. Maybe letting nature take its course is the best way to solve the problem." After that, she took Xi Cheng's hand and walked into the house.
