Chapter 43: Waking from the Dream
Yue Wu Xia couldn’t help but say, “What are you talking about? How can a person have nothing serious on their mind all day and be full of that kind of thing?”
Yue Ningshuang pouted. “What do you mean by ‘that kind of thing’? Sister, that is the only way for us to continue our lineage. It is dignified and inviolable.”
Yue Wu Xia was speechless. “I’m too lazy to argue with you about this…”
As Yue Wu Xia was speaking, her gaze suddenly froze. She looked at the back of Yue Ningshuang’s side and seemed to be stunned.
Mingyan and Yue Ningshuang couldn’t help but look at the place Yue Wu Xia was looking at. On that wall, a colorful crack had appeared, and inside it, the light was brilliant and dazzling, extremely unreal.
Mingyan understood at a glance. Just like the sun had disappeared just now, this world was about to collapse. Mingyan subconsciously held Yue Wu Xia and Yue Ningshuang’s slender waists tightly, his heart tightening.
But Yue Ningshuang was shocked. “What’s wrong? What is that?”
Mingyan came back to his senses, and the hand holding their slender waists couldn’t help but loosen a little. The more abnormal his performance, the more his master would probably be suspicious afterward. Mingyan shook his head. “I don’t know… let’s ask Nishang to come and have a look…”
Just as Mingyan finished speaking, the crack suddenly expanded dozens of times, and the entire wall disappeared, as if it had been swallowed.
Yue Ningshuang was startled and held Mingyan’s waist tightly. “What, what’s wrong? Husband?”
Yue Wu Xia glanced at Yue Ningshuang, then looked at the crack, silent.
Suddenly, there was a “crack” sound in the world, and the sound of shattering began to continuously ring in their ears. The three of them began to feel their heads grow dizzy.
Mingyan knew that if he fell asleep, he would probably be back in reality when he opened his eyes again. So, Mingyan lowered his head and kissed Yue Ningshuang’s lips. Then, Mingyan kissed Yue Wu Xia’s lips again.
Yue Wu Xia dodged, but Mingyan held her tightly and forced a kiss on her. And this time, Yue Wu Xia didn’t seem to want to dodge and was kissed squarely by Mingyan.
This is the last time I’m kissing her… in the future, there will be no chance…
This was the last thought in Mingyan’s mind.
And after that, Mingyan fainted.
…
It was said that a dream leaves no trace. Was that really so?
When Mingyan opened his eyes, he didn’t know how much time had passed. Mingyan sat up and looked beside him.
Huang Feiyan and Yue Ningshuang seemed to have not woken up yet. Mingyan subconsciously looked for traces of Yue Wu Xia. Soon, Mingyan saw Yue Wu Xia sitting cross-legged in front.
Yue Wu Xia’s eyes were clear and light. She wore a light blue Daoist robe. Seeing Mingyan wake up, Yue Wu Xia took the initiative to speak. “Why did you come in? Don’t you know that it’s very dangerous after entering a dream?”
Dangerous? Mingyan only felt that this dream was very wonderful… he was even a little reluctant to leave. Mingyan lowered his head and didn’t say anything.
Because Mingyan didn’t know what to say.
“Did you also enter a dream?” Yue Wu Xia asked calmly.
“I think… so,” Mingyan nodded.
“I dreamed that I went back to the past, back to my mother’s side,” Yue Wu Xia sighed softly. “I’ve told you these stories. In my dream, I stopped them from being killed and saved the Great Yue Dynasty. But I only felt empty in my heart. The world in a dream is, after all, just a dream.”
Hearing this, Mingyan was stunned. This was not the same as what he had been through in his dream.
In Mingyan’s dream, Yue Wu Xia was just a princess. There was no such thing as saving the Great Yue Dynasty.
Could it be… that Mingyan and his master were not in the same dream?
Thinking of this, Mingyan was relieved, but also a little disappointed.
Then in that case, the matter with Yue Ningshuang and Huang Nishang was just…
“You’re awake? I’m going back to the Huang family first,” at this time, a familiar voice came to Mingyan’s mind. It was Huang Nishang’s voice. Mingyan was stunned.
Hmm? What’s the meaning of this?
Does Nishang have memories of the dream? Otherwise, why would Huang Nishang say that?
“Nishang, you have memories?” Mingyan couldn’t help but send a mental message to ask.
“…What are you talking about? Of course I have memories…” hearing Mingyan’s mental message, for a moment, Huang Nishang had thought of just playing dumb and pretending that nothing in the dream had happened. But she remembered that she had, after all, promised Mingyan to tell him that “Huang Nishang will always be by his side.”
And, it was just Huang Nishang. Huang Nishang was originally his nominal Dao companion.
Hearing this, Mingyan was silent for a small while, then sent a mental message. “Go back then. Be careful. I should be going to the Huang family soon. At that time, I will personally propose to my mother.”
Huang Nishang fell silent. After that, Mingyan never heard her voice again. Huang Nishang must have left.
But Huang Nishang’s words made Mingyan look at Yue Wu Xia seriously.
Did his master have a different dream from him, or was she playing dumb?
Mingyan didn’t need to expose his master, but he wanted to find out if what Yue Wu Xia was saying was true or false.
“I also had a dream. I dreamed of the Great Yue Dynasty…” Mingyan said. Hearing Mingyan say this, Yue Wu Xia glanced at him and interrupted, “Why haven’t Feiyan and Yue Ningshuang woken up yet?”
Mingyan lowered his head, the corners of his lips actually curving upwards slightly. His master’s stiff interruption made Mingyan almost instantly certain that she was lying.
Yue Wu Xia’s dream was exactly the same as his. They had had the same dream. It was just that, to cover up the embarrassment of the two of them becoming husband and wife in the dream, his master had said what she had just said.
Mingyan naturally would not expose his master. There was no need. Once he did, only Mingyan would suffer. His master would only be a little embarrassed.
Before Mingyan could speak, Huang Feiyan and Yue Ningshuang woke up at the same time. Huang Feiyan groggily rubbed her forehead. For a moment, all her memories were restored. Her face turned bright red, a look of disbelief on her face. Mingyan looked at Huang Feiyan and observed that her gaze suddenly turned to his master, but then Huang Feiyan immediately looked away, becoming subtle.
Feiyan also has memories. Mingyan could see it at a glance…
“Um…” Huang Feiyan opened her mouth, as if she didn’t know what to say. Yue Wu Xia glanced at her, her face calm.
In the end, Huang Feiyan still didn’t say anything. After all, to her, the memories in the dream… were a bit too unbearable to look back on.
Mingyan also sighed in relief. Otherwise, if it was pointed out, it would be very awkward.
But Yue Ningshuang suddenly stood up and looked at Yue Wu Xia. Yue Ningshuang blinked. “We… we’re awake? Sister… oh no… Senior Yue, Mingyan… hmm, that’s not right. I should be calling you husband…”
Mingyan’s face froze. He subconsciously looked at Yue Wu Xia but saw that her face was calm, as if she had no reaction.
It seems Master is planning to play dumb to the end…
