Chapter 7 I Want to Protect You one
I felt like I had a particularly long sleep, with countless scenes changing in my dream. I felt very tired and my head was dizzy. When I opened my eyes, I felt as if my energy had been used up. Dream soul... I think the reason I could sense so many things before was because I had contact with the dream soul, and it was the dream soul that injected energy into my body. I rubbed my head, but there were obviously sequelae. After leaving the dream soul, my body energy was depleted a lot.
I struggled to get out of bed, my stomach growling with hunger. I walked to the door and opened it. This time, Yuan Yichen didn't lock it. It was quiet outside. Maybe everyone was still asleep. I looked through the window and saw that it was around four or five in the morning.
I had no way to escape now. I just wanted to find something to eat, so I didn't shrink back, but wandered around the corridor. The warm yellow light was like a candle, illuminating the carpeted corridor. I thought, if I shouted "I'm hungry" at this time, would many people rush out? They would definitely think that Yuan Yichen was crazy to fall in love with me!
"Xiao Wu?" Just when I was weak and wandering around aimlessly, Yuan Yichen's voice suddenly appeared behind me.
I turned around and saw Yuan Yichen in grey pajamas. He had obviously just woken up, his hair was a little messy, the collar of his pajamas was open, and the dream soul was looming between his collarbones. Dream soul... I rushed towards Yuan Yichen: "Yichen, I woke up because of hunger."
Yuan Yichen opened his eyes wide in shock, but his body reacted quickly, and he quickly reached out and hugged me. I threw myself into his arms, and my hand touched Menghun, and a stream of energy was transmitted from my fingertips into my body, but that energy was fleeting.
"You woke up hungry at this time. I really can't do anything about you." Yuan Yichen hugged me, his tone full of helplessness. He reached out and touched my forehead to make sure I didn't have a fever. "I'll ask the kitchen to prepare food for you."
“Don’t be so exaggerated. Just heat up any leftovers and I’ll eat a little. There’s no need to make a big fuss. It would be so embarrassing.” I buried my head in his arms shyly, wanting to feel more of the energy of the dream soul.
"Okay, I have yogurt salad in my room, come and have some." Yuan Yichen helped me to his room. His room was not as magnificent as I imagined, but very fresh and simple. Next to the large wooden bed was a rocking chair, and next to the rocking chair was a small square table. On the table was a white porcelain bowl, which must be the yogurt salad that Yuan Yichen mentioned.
"Please sit down for a moment." Yuan Yichen took me to the rocking chair.
"I have liked this kind of chair since I was a child. It rocks and is very comfortable." I lay down on the rocking chair, like a tumbler, and started playing with my legs crossed.
Yuan Yichen touched my head with a doting smile on his face. He picked up the bowl and stirred it, then took the spoon and fed the food to my mouth.
I blushed immediately, bit my lip and lowered my head.
"I'd better eat it myself." I took the bowl from him. The aroma of fruit mixed with nuts entered my nose. I didn't know if it was because I was hungry or because of the cooking method, but I always felt that this bowl of yogurt was particularly delicious.
Yuan Yichen stood beside me and watched me finish eating: "You are so cute when you eat." He took my empty bowl and picked up a tissue to wipe my mouth.
I didn't dare to look up at his eyes, so I lay on the rocking chair with my eyes closed and said, "This chair is really comfortable, it's good to lie down and sleep."
"If you like, I can move into your room." Yuan Yichen said with a smile.
"I'm full and don't want to move. Can I sleep here?" I lay on the recliner, unwilling to move, and said in a low voice with my head down.
Yuan Yichen's eyes suddenly became bright and a smile spread across his face.
"You want to sleep here?" He said in a deliberately long voice.
My face turned even redder, and my heart started pounding faster: "I just want to sleep in a rocking chair ."
"Okay." Yuan Yichen said a little helplessly, then he retreated to the bed, took off Menghun and put it on the table, then lay down on the bed with his clothes on, "Remember to call me if you don't sleep well." After that, he turned off the lights.
I secretly went to see Yuan Yichen. His face was not clear in the dim room, but I could feel his relaxed breathing. The tiny starlight shone through the curtains, roughly outlining his silhouette. It was quiet and beautiful, but unfortunately... I'm sorry... I lay quietly in the rocking chair, my palms sweating with nervousness. Menghun was on the table, very close, and within my reach. However, I hesitated. How could I get Menghun without being discovered by Yuan Yichen?
I struggled with myself, and the rocking chair rocked back and forth. I actually became sleepy, and gradually fell asleep. In the dream, I only felt the dream soul glowing around me. I absorbed the energy of the dream soul, and the feeling of weakness in my body gradually disappeared.
When I woke up again , it was already the next morning, the sun was shining in, and Yuan Yichen was no longer in the room. I stretched myself, it was my first time sleeping in a rocking chair, and it felt pretty good.
"Xiao Wu, you're awake." Yuan Yichen opened the door and walked in. He must have just finished exercising, wearing a sports suit and wet hair. He usually looks so elegant, and now he looks very sunny.
I quickly stood up from the chair and said embarrassedly, "I'm sorry to bother you all night. I'll go back to my room to change clothes." After I said that, I ran away, only to hear Yuan Yichen's chuckle behind me.
Back in the room, I calmed my heartbeat and started to plan how to get the dream soul. I sat cross-legged on the bed, trying to empty my mind and enter a meditative state. I thought of Yan Yimu's name, and a familiar room gradually appeared in front of me. Yan Yimu was sitting in a chair eating breakfast, and he seemed to be much more haggard.
"Yan Yimu!" When I saw Yan Yimu, I felt so distressed that I just wanted to rush over and hug him. I walked to the table, picked up a pen and paper, and started writing like last time.
Yan Yimu found my words on the blank paper, and he stood up excitedly and knocked over his chopsticks. He looked at the air and asked: "Yu Yingwu, you are back!"
"Well, I have learned some new ways to use dream souls. I believe I will be able to master dream souls soon. You must take good care of yourself." I couldn't help but feel my eyes turn red.
Yan Yimu nodded continuously and replied: "You have to protect yourself too!"
Suddenly, some lines similar to a map appeared in my mind, and I drew them on paper. Every time I contacted the dream soul, something I didn't know seemed to flash in my mind.
"What is this? A map?" Yan Yimu asked me after I finished drawing it.
"I don't know, it just suddenly appeared in my mind and I drew it. It must be helpful." I wrote, and then thought about whether I should tell him that I wanted to steal the dream soul. He would definitely not agree.
I chatted with Yan Yimu for a few more words, and my body began to feel tired again, and my consciousness began to blur, and I fell asleep again. I didn't wake up until Yuan Yichen came to find me.
"Little lazy guy, you didn't sleep well last night and fell asleep again. You seem very tired. Don't sleep in the rocking chair in the future. I have moved the rocking chair to you. You can play with it when you are bored." Yuan Yichen touched my forehead with a doting and tender look on his face.
"Master, breakfast is ready." Xinxin suddenly appeared at the door. Her voice was dry and sharp, making people feel uncomfortable in their ears and hearts.
Yuan Yichen looked back at her, Xinxin trembled, and left with a pale face.
"Let's go eat." Yuan Yichen helped me stand up.
"I'm not that weak!" I broke free and walked out by myself.
