Chapter 72: Unaware of Being a Guest in One's Own Dream

  Xu Qingcheng woke up earlier than Lin Huang, slender and elegant, wearing a white dress, standing on the rooftop, looking at Lin Huang below, as well as another woman.

  She saw Lin Huang's dreams being ridiculed, saw the abandonment of Lin Huang's childhood sweetheart, felt the same way, she knew this was not a dream, it was deep in Lin Huang's memory.

  If you don't know your own heart, how can you know others?

  In just seven days, one must devote a lifetime of passion and dedication, pouring out everything. Naturally, one must first know their heart.

  Xu Qingcheng didn't know what Lin Huang saw in her memory, but anyway Xu Qingcheng felt that Lin Huang's memories were somewhat unpleasant to her. A man who could conquer her, look down on the world, and sweep away all heroes, how could he have such a shameful past?

  So Xu Qingcheng lightly jumped off the rooftop, she couldn't change the past, but at least for now, she could do something to make Lin Huang's past not so regrettable.

  "Ah, why bother with a woman who doesn't understand you at all?"

  "She doesn't care about your dreams, but there will always be someone in this world who cares about your dreams."

  "Don't give up on your dreams, you are destined to be a godly man."

  "One day you will thank these indifferent people who once ridiculed you, because they made you not give up and be able to move forward even stronger."

  "You have your dreams, your persistence, and the direction you want to go. How can you stop here?"

  Xu Qincheng didn't know if Lin Huang could hear his words, so he waved his hand and saw Lin Huang slowly turn around, his footsteps firm, shaking his head, following behind him, wanting to see how Lin Huang had step by step risen from being ordinary to becoming a saint.

  。。。。。。。。。。。。

  Lin Huang's hands were clasped together as he stood still, quietly gazing at Xu Qingcheng. He had now reacted and realized that this was not some kind of illusion, but rather a memory within Xu Qingcheng.

  "Remember, I am Xu Zhongyi's daughter. Not getting first place is a shame. There is no excuse."

  "Yes, Father!"

  "Remember, this time in the competition, you must win, you are the most outstanding genius of this generation of Tian Shen Academy, absolutely cannot lose."

  "Yes, teacher!"

  。。。。。。

  Lin Huang watched Xue Qingcheng grow from a dreamy girl who fantasized about an ordinary life as a wife and mother, to a resolute and unyielding woman who always strived for the top and became a national goddess.

  Lin Huang saw her heartbroken, saw her crying, and saw her tears flowing.

  She saw her three days and nine injuries, completed the task in an impossible situation, with a heroic spirit, won countless praise, but cried alone at midnight.

  She stands high above, a crane among chickens, no holidays, no rest, fighting every day.

  He saw her sweat and also saw her tears.

  See her joy, also see her sorrow.

  See her bravery, also see her cowardice.

  See her infinite scenery, also see her desolate emptiness.

  Gradually, Lin Huang could no longer maintain his calm state of mind. Looking at that stunningly beautiful face, he felt a surge of emotions, starting to feel happy for her, sad for her, angry for her, and shocked for her.

  Lin Huang gradually came to realize that Xu Qingcheng liked wearing white dresses, eating silver ear soup from the third house on the corner of the street, and standing alone on the rooftop blowing in the wind.

  Want to keep long hair, but short hair is more convenient for battle.

  Want to go to the playground, but Xun Qingcheng can't afford to lose his spirit.

  Wanted to cook a meal for Father, but Xu Zhongyi's daughter can't afford to waste time on this.

  He saw what she wanted but couldn't get it.

  He can't share her glory, her joy, her pride. But he can taste her weakness, her helplessness, her tears.

  "It's really a strange feeling."

  Lin Ao shook his head and saw Xu Qingcheng grow from ten years old to twenty years old.

  It was as if he had really accompanied Xu Qingcheng all these years, and although no one knew, Lin Huang's heart skipped a beat, with a thread of emotions unknowingly entwining his fingers.

  Xu Qingcheng also followed in Lin Huang's footsteps, witnessing his rise.

  Two people followed each other's memories like bystanders, because they understood, so they knew, and because they knew, their hearts ached. Their hearts ached for your past, because from this moment on, no one understands you more than I do.

  This strange emotion entwined Lin Huang and Xu Qingcheng, the Divine Law revealed an unimaginable power.

  This is not confusion, nor is it tampering, but rather following memories, because of understanding, so I know you.

  A little bit of affection began to spread, and both of their minds could no longer remain calm.

  Finally, Lin Huang reached out for the first time to wipe away the tears in Xu Qingcheng's memories. And Xu Qingcheng also opened his arms, wanting to hold Lin Huang's loneliness in his memories.

  When the two opened their eyes, Lin Huang stretched out his hand to wipe away non-existent tears from the corners of Xu Qingcheng's eyes, while Xu Qingcheng opened his arms and tightly hugged Lin Huang's waist.

  No one felt awkward or out of place, it was as if they were meant to be together, the two of them knew and understood each other, just like they had been together for half a lifetime.

  From this moment on, they will be the two people in this world who understand each other the most.

  "It's a bit strange. The husband you've always yearned for looks exactly like me." Lin Huang stretched out his hand, rubbing Xu Qingcheng's hair, and smiled.

  "There's something strange about it. It's just a dream, after all, and you can never see the face clearly. You say it's you, then it's you."

  Xu Qingcheng leaned against Lin Huang's chest, "But you, did you really hear what I said to you?"

  "It seems a bit familiar." Lin Huang thought for a moment, shook his head, and reached out to grasp Xu Qingcheng's short hair. "From today on, grow your hair for me. When your long hair reaches your waist, I'll come marry you."

  "You think you're so great, but I don't want to marry you." Xǔ Qīngchéng pouted and pushed away Lín Huāng, looking at his face. "I always feel a bit strange. Why do I love you so much, yet only willing to tell you now? Following behind you for ten years, watching you walk with such difficulty, my heart aches."

  "There's nothing." Lin Huang wrapped his arms around Xu Qingcheng, "It's just that you, from now on I'll protect you. You don't have to be so tired anymore. Whoever dares to make you unhappy, I'll make their ancestors eight generations back unhappy too. Your dad is the same. If he dares to come bother you again, I'll cover my face and beat him up."

  "How can you be like this? That's my dad, don't talk about him like that."

  Xu Qingcheng burst out laughing and wrapped her arms around Lin Huang's neck, her eyes hazy, "Kiss me."

  Lin Huang didn't hold back, kissing her fiercely, with such force that they both found it hard to breathe. They kissed until the sun went down, and only then did Xu Qingcheng jump out of Lin Huang's arms, "I'll cook dinner for you."

  Lin Huang nodded slightly.

  "I know you love to eat fish. So I'll cook some for you. Don't just stand there, you catch the fish and I'll cook." Xǔ Qīngchéng pushed Lín Kuáng out of the palace.

  Lin Ao shook his head and walked out of the palace, suddenly moved, grabbed with a big hand, two seven-color treasure fish appeared in his hand, jumping around. Smiling, he took the fish back to the palace, watching Xun Qingcheng busy.

  A thousand miles away, Lin Huang saw the fish returning to the palace, and stepped on Hao Renjie's head. He said to Xue Linglong, "I feel like something is off? Is that divine law really so amazing? Two people were at each other's throats yesterday, and today they're loving and affectionate? This isn't logical!"

  "You don't understand, this method isn't to make them truly fall in love, but to stir up all the emotions of love in their hearts, making their hearts resonate with each other, and finally achieving a perfect union. It's actually a kind of cultivation, although it does have some strange aspects." Xue Linglong said coldly, her heart skipping a beat as she saw Taiyi clench his fists, his face looking extremely unsightly.

  "This divine law won't have any aftereffects, will it?"

  Taiyi snorted coldly, his heart also somewhat apprehensive, but still stiffened his neck and said: "What do you know? The various emotions and loves of the mortal world are all just an illusion. This divine law is to turn this illusion into reality, and finally condense it into a kind of emotion that transcends. Do you think there will be anyone who falls in love with someone in their dreams and can't extricate themselves?"

  "Maybe. But I always feel like there's something wrong somewhere." Xue Linglong nodded and stopped thinking about it.
