Dream of a Lifetime
The wind and clouds in the world changed.
Serene Dream's sapphire eyes were exceptionally dazzling in the dark night, and her waist-length blue hair did not change in the howling wind.
Ye Zichen's domineering aura caused him to feel stifled. Only then did Ye Zichen feel as if there was an insurmountable gulf between them.
The suffocating pressure caused beads of sweat to drip down from his forehead.
So long as he wanted to, Ye Zichen was sure he could destroy the entire city with a flip of his hand.
"It was my negligence. Back then, I allowed you to grow. I didn't expect you to reach such a level." Deep Dream's tone was full of gloom, and the sapphire eye became more and more dazzling. "To be honest, if His Highness hadn't been there at that time, it would have been a problem whether you could have survived."
"Your Highness," Ye Zichen's eyes widened.
"Yes, I'm sure you didn't expect it. The girl by your side is already a Highness of our Four Direction Palace. The current her is completely different from how she was back then. "
Deep Dream smiled cruelly, and a cold light burst from his eyes.
"That day, His Highness stopped me. This time … I want to see who else can save you."
Whoosh.
All of a sudden, Ye Zichen's body froze, unable to move. He struggled with all his might, but it was as if he was imprisoned in the air.
He was keenly aware that danger was approaching him, and he knew very well …
As long as that unknown danger came into contact with him, his only outcome would be death.
"Don't be nervous. Before you die, I will make you very happy."
Deep Dream pursed her lips and chuckled. An invisible light shield instantly enveloped the entire city.
"…"
In an instant, everyone in the city, including Zuo Mo and the others, blushed with excitement. However, their expressions were one of extreme agony as they curled up on the ground.
"Do you see that? These are you mortals."
Youmuu pointed at the crowd below and sneered.
"Do you know the origin of my name, Youmuu? It was a netherworldly dream! I can control the dreams of all living beings and make them dream what they want. Look … they look so excited, but do you know why they are in so much pain? "
"Youmuu, what exactly do you want!?" Ye Zichen roared.
"Any human emotion, excitement, joy, sorrow, and so on, when it reaches its peak, will lead to death. Their current dream is indeed very comfortable for them, but in the final moment … only death awaits them! "
Youmuu smiled sinisterly, causing Ye Zichen to frown.
"Do you want to kill everyone in this city? Aren't you afraid of the wrath of heaven?!"
"Heaven?" Deep Dream sneered. "I know heaven better than you! Alright, I'm a little tired after talking to you so much. You … go and have fun in your dreams. "
"Zichen."
At that moment, Ye Zichen heard a gentle laugh.
The scene suddenly changed. Ye Zichen sat on the sofa in casual clothes, while Tiantian giggled and played games with Xia Keke in the living room.
As expected, Su Yan and Lu Lu were bickering. As for the person who called out his name …
"Yumei."
Ye Zichen looked at the smiling woman in front of him in shock. She was wearing home clothes and walked towards him with a smile.
Tears flowed down for no reason. Seriously … It's been a long time.
"Why are you spacing out here? Hurry up and go eat. Tiantian is going to have a parent-teacher conference later. I also have to go to the company later. You promised me that you would go. Ai, why are you crying? "
Xiao Yumei looked at Ye Zichen in confusion. The moment she said that, the other girls in the room all surrounded him.
"Zichen-ge is crying. It's so embarrassing," Xia Keke laughed.
"You're already so old, why are you still crying?" Su Yan couldn't help but frown. However, when she saw Tiantian's stomach …
It was bulging.
"What are you looking at? This is your darling son. Don't cry, darling is still looking at you, "Su Yan's eyes were filled with a motherly glow as she continuously caressed Tiantian's stomach.
"Daddy, Tiantian hasn't cried for a long time. Why are you crying non-stop?"
A young girl ran in front of Ye Zichen and leaped into his arms. Ye Zichen subconsciously stopped her and looked at the girl who called him daddy intimately …
"Tiantian?"
"Wow, Mom! What's wrong with Daddy? It's like he's never seen me before, "Tiantian couldn't help but twitch her mouth. Youmuu's feminine face suddenly surfaced in Ye Zichen's mind.
Yes, this was a dream.
All of this was just a dream. It was all a dream that I had been anticipating in my heart, a dream that he had constructed.
But I really don't want to wake up from this dream.
"How could that be? Maybe Dad is a little tired recently." Ye Zichen rubbed Tiantian's head lovingly, then stood up from the sofa. He couldn't help but smile as he looked at the girls around him. "C 'mon, let's go eat."
"Hmph, this is what mortals are like."
Youmuu looked disdainfully at Ye Zichen, who was already curled up in pain.
"I know this is a dream, but I don't want to wake up. Mortals just like to be at ease and enjoy these impossible things. But forget it. Since he wants to use his life to exchange for this dream, I have the patience to wait until the end. "
In the blink of an eye, spring passed and autumn came, year after year.
"Dad."
Tiantian bit her lips tightly in her wedding dress and couldn't help but cry as she looked at Ye Zichen, whose face was covered in wrinkles.
"You can't be so willful at your in-laws' place. But if you get bullied, then come home to stay!"
Ye Zichen patted her hand and smiled reluctantly.
…
"Grandpa."
Tiantian, who was already a mother, returned to visit her family with her child. At that moment, Ye Zichen was already old. He chuckled as he watched the little fellow hug his leg intimately and ask him to take him to play …
Time passed faster and faster.
Until …
"Yumei, Lil 'Yan, Keke, Lu Lu …"
Ye Zichen, who was lying on the hospital bed, reached out weakly to grab the women who had accompanied him his entire life.
"Zichen-gege," Xia Keke called out with a sob. Even at their age, the way she called him still hadn't changed.
"Keke, don't cry. Everyone has to leave one day, right?"
Ye Zichen raised his hand with difficulty and wiped away the tears from the corner of Keke's eyes, then couldn't help but smile apologetically at the girls beside him.
"I'm really sorry. I wasn't able to give you guys a proper status in the end, and we weren't able to hold a wedding either."
"It's fine," Xiao Yumei smiled warmly, while the other girls nodded.
