Chapter 6: See You Again two
The car drove for a long time. Although I felt uncomfortable sitting in the car, I fell asleep after a while. When I woke up, the car had stopped.
Xinxin took me for a while, and then I heard the sound of the door opening, and then Xinxin called "Master" respectfully, and I knew we were at Yuan Yichen's residence. He was really a bit perverted, and he actually liked to hear people call him Master.
"Welcome back, Xiaowu." Yuan Yichen walked over to me and held my hand. His hand was very cold, unlike Yan Yimu's hand, which was always warm and powerful.
"What? You don't want to take off my blindfold?" I asked dissatisfiedly. It really didn't feel good to be in the dark like this.
"Sorry." Yuan Yichen said softly, reaching out to untie the cloth on my eyes.
Suddenly exposed to the strong light, my eyes were irritated and tears came out. I blinked and adjusted to the magnificent hall. This place is different from the place I stayed before, it has a different style. I don't know where this madman found such a good house.
Yuan Yichen was wearing a black tuxedo today, with his hair combed meticulously. His pale face and this outfit reminded me of a vampire prince, and I couldn't help but shudder.
"Long time no see. You've lost weight. It seems that Yan Yimu didn't take good care of you. Actually, you know, I never thought of hurting you." Yuan Yichen looked at me with gentle eyes and his voice was also very gentle.
"Actually, I'm confused. Is your target Yan Yimu or me?" I raised my head and looked into Yuan Yichen's eyes.
Yuan Yichen's expression became very sad: "Yan Yimu, from childhood to adulthood, I will definitely be unlucky if I meet him. He always wants to compete with me for the first place. Because of him, my childhood was so miserable. When I grew up, I thought I could get rid of him, but I still met him in the end. I stole Menghun just to scare him, but I didn't expect Menghun to be so magical."
"You don't need to compare yourself with Yan Yimu, you are different people. Besides, why do you have to be number one? It's very tiring. You are already very good." I looked at Yuan Yichen and said, it's all the fault of those ignorant parents. They only know how to let their children strive for the first place and don't care about their children's mental health at all. Are their own children more important than those lifeless report cards?
"If I'm really excellent, why did you still choose Yan Yimu?" Yuan Yichen stretched out his index finger and lifted my chin.
"I am willing to choose you, and we can study dreams and souls together, but what benefits will I get?" I turned my head, moved my chin away from his fingertips, and asked with a twinkling eye.
Yuan Yichen seemed a little unconvinced: "Benefits? We are already the greatest rulers in this world, what benefits do you want?"
"The two of us together? You mean, are you going to marry me?" I blinked, a faint smile appearing on my lips.
"Of course, Xiaowu, the moment I met you, I knew that you would be my bride." Yuan Yichen said affectionately and seriously.
Xinxin rushed out and yelled, "No, Master, you can't marry her. This woman must be lying. How could she suddenly be willing to help you? There must be a conspiracy!"
"Yeah, maybe I have some conspiracy, believe it or not." I stuck out my tongue at Xinxin, "If you don't believe me, just lock me up. Anyway, I've been caught by you and I don't want to escape."
"Xiao Wu, I'm happy that you think this way." Yuan Yichen came around behind me and tore into pieces the cloth that bound my hands.
My wrist was already bleeding, and Yuan Yichen held my wrist with a distressed look on his face.
"I'll apply medicine for you, Xinxin. You go out first." Yuan Yichen took me to the chair and asked me to sit down, then took out the ointment from the drawer.
"Master, you can't believe it!" Xinxin said indignantly.
"Xinxin, I told you to go out." Yuan Yichen turned his head and looked at Xinxin.
Xinxin wanted to say something else, but in the end she said nothing. She lowered her head and walked out of the room silently. I seemed to hear the sound of her heart breaking.
Yuan Yichen applied medicine to me, and the cool ointment relieved the pain in my wrist.
"Yichen, if the two of us want to go on, you should show me the dream soul first. I have never come into contact with a dream soul."
Yuan Yichen patted my hands, a faint smile appeared on the corner of his mouth: "Don't worry, I will show you. Now, you take a rest for a while, and then we will eat together."
I was taken to a room. It was a very fresh room, completely different from the previous glitz: sky blue walls, blue-gray bed. I lay on the bed, wondering how Yan Yimu was doing now? Would he be very angry when he saw my letter? He would definitely be very angry and want to find me as soon as possible. But if he was so impulsive, how could he be the Yan Yimu I knew?
Thinking of Yan Yimu, I realized how panicked I was right now. I don't know if Yuan Yichen will believe me, I don't know if I can get Menghun, and I don't know if I can tap into my potential.
I slept for a long time in a daze until there was a knock on the door. I got up and opened the door. I saw Xinxin outside, her eyes shining with jealousy.
"The master asked you to change your clothes and go out for dinner." Xinxin threw me a box.
I smiled slightly: "Xinxin, your enemy should not be me. You are so smart, you should know..."
"You are not allowed to sow discord." Xinxin said angrily.
I said nothing more, closed the door and changed my clothes, a sky blue dress that just showed off my collarbone.
When I walked into the living room, I saw Yuan Yichen, who was neatly dressed, sitting elegantly in front of a long dining table filled with all kinds of delicious food.
"Wow, so rich." I said exaggeratedly as I looked at the table full of delicious food. I sat down and sniffed, but I didn't feel very hungry.
"I knew you would like it." Yuan Yichen smiled like a child. This smile made people feel that he was just a student. If he could repent, if he was not so crazy, it would be great! Maybe we can be good friends, just like Xuan Qing and I.
"Let's eat. I haven't had a big meal in a long time." I picked up the chopsticks and started eating. The food was so good, but it tasted bland. I thought that no matter how good the food was, it would not be as delicious as the fried chicken that Yan Yimu and I ate together.
We finished the meal in silence. I didn't dare to keep asking Yuan Yichen to show me his dream soul, so I just found some random topics to talk about. We have been in the world of comics for too long, and I am afraid that the night will be long and full of dreams.
Yuan Yichen finally brought the topic to Meng Hun, and my heart almost jumped into my throat.
"Let's talk about the Dream Soul. I know some simple spells that can maintain my authority in this world. However, the power of the Dream Soul is too strong. I think only you can make it work to its full potential."
"I'm not sure either. I've never come into contact with dream souls. I also want to know how I can use dream souls." I said expectantly.
Yuan Yichen unbuttoned the collar of his shirt. It turned out that he had been wearing the Dream Soul around his neck. He took it off and placed it in front of me. The Dream Soul exuded a faint purple glow, like fragile glass.
I held the soul of my dream in my hands, and its brilliance shone even brighter. Strands of light floated in the palm of my hand, and an inexplicably powerful energy flowed around my body.
"Menghun really recognizes its master. Even though a thousand years have passed, it has never shone so brightly on me." Yuan Yichen looked at Menghun greedily and reached out to touch him.
The light of Menghun dimmed instantly and turned into an ordinary pendant.
"Alas, it seems that I still can't control the dream soul with you." Yuan Yichen said a little disappointedly, "I wear it day and night, but it still has no effect on me."
"Don't be anxious. The dream soul also needs to adapt slowly! Besides, I also need to sense it. You know all the spells and how you control the dream soul. Telling me these will also make it easier for me to use it." I comforted Yuan Yichen, while sparing no effort to get his words.
Yuan Yichen handed me a notebook and said, "These are the materials I compiled about the Dream Soul and how to use it. I hope they will be helpful to you."
