Chapter Twenty-Six: Entering the Dream

  I didn't expect my second brother to practice so desperately, he dragged me to teach him all 24 moves, and then followed me to practice again and again until I was exhausted and drenched in sweat before he let me go. Alas, he's indeed a martial arts fanatic, look at him still practicing now. I couldn't take it anymore, I want to take a bath. Alas, I miss the shower room so much, but there isn't one now, only a large wooden tub to make do with washing, anyway that's how we've been doing it since childhood.

  After taking a bath, the sleepy bug came immediately. I put on my pajamas, took down my hair clip, and suddenly wanted to take a look at Mu's drawing. So I carefully opened the hair clip, took out the painting inside, and whispered in my heart: bigger, bigger, let me see clearly. The paper indeed slowly enlarged, enlarged. Seeing it clearly, even the eyelashes of Mu's eyes were clear, so realistic that it seemed like Mu was right in front of me. I felt more and more that this painting was not the one I drew. My painting skills are not yet at the level of being so vivid. It must be Mu who did it, he kept my original drawing and changed it into a similar one for me. So this should be a divine painting, I remember that time when Mu's words appeared on the painting. I decided to try it out carefully.

  "Misty, Misty, are you there?" I softly called out, "Can you see me? Have you been paying attention to me all along? Misty, I miss you, I miss our son, I miss my husband, what should I do?" As I pretended to sob, I stared intently at the divine painting. Ah, there was a response! A line of words appeared on the painting: "You're quite clever, knowing how to contact me like this. Speak, what's on your mind?" The handwriting flowed like clouds and water, elegant and smooth, just like him.

  "I want to see you, take me there with you, okay?" I said pitifully. "Really just to see me? There's no other purpose?" The words appeared quickly and then disappeared. "What other purpose, it's just a trivial matter for you anyway." "I knew your wicked idea. No way, I won't agree to that."

  "I didn't say anything, don't rush to refuse!" "You just want me to take you to see them, right? This time it's really not possible. On the day you chose, I told you that during this period you can't see them, otherwise all our previous efforts will be in vain. Don't worry, they're fine, and they're dreaming now."

  Dream? My eyes lit up: "Then can I see them in my dreams? Take me to their dreams!" "Alas, it's really not possible. You can't always be entangled between the past and the future. Your current task is to focus on doing everything well." I sadly said: "Mò, you've changed, so cold-blooded, so inhumane. Hmph, I won't bother with you anymore."

  "Wait, you really have no choice. Don't you want to see the young Ye Rufeng?" "The young Ye Rufeng, my husband?" I burst out laughing, "Really? Can I see him ahead of time?" "As you wish, let's go! Let me take you into his dream, and when the time comes, he'll recognize you." Wow, Meng you're too good, really worthy of being the Dream God, letting me enter his dream ahead of time, we met in the dream. What a 'romantic' idea, I love it!

  I immediately felt like I was lying on the "bed" again, and my soul floated up into the air. Then, that silver-haired figure in white robes appeared, still so elegant and handsome. I joyfully approached him, but he looked at me with a helpless expression. "Ah, Mu, Brother Mu, God Mu, don't look like that, okay? I really miss you." Mu's mouth curved into a smile, and he chuckled lightly: "Oh? Really miss me?" "Really, 200% miss you." I said with a sincere face, "If I didn't already have a husband, I'd really want to chase after you." "Heh, learned how to flatter people now," Mu said with a hint of a smile, lightly glancing at me.

  "Honestly, Mo, I didn't really believe in past lives and reincarnation before, but because of your appearance, I now know that it's true. So tell me about my and Ruo Feng's past life. We won't just be lovers for this lifetime only, right?" I pulled on Mo's sleeve and shook it, "Come on? Tell me!"

  Mo lightly sighed and floated forward with me, stopping at a mountain peak. With a wave of his sleeve, two reclining chairs appeared, indicating for me to lie down on one, while he lay down beside me. This mountain is so close to the sky, I can reach out and touch the drifting clouds. Those stars that usually look so small now seem so big, making me feel dizzy, I quickly closed my eyes and took a deep breath.

  "What's wrong? Are you uncomfortable?" Mo asked anxiously, and immediately wiped my forehead with her hand. Oh, it feels so comfortable, the dizzy feeling is gone.

  "Alright, close your eyes first, I'll send you into a dream. When you wake up again, you might find the answer you're looking for in his dreams." Mo said softly.

  I closed my eyes as I was told. I felt my body flying, the wind whizzing past my ears, and then everything stopped. It was so quiet around me. I was a bit surprised - had I entered my husband's dream? I secretly opened one eye slightly, hmm, it wasn't the same place as before, so it must be his dream. So, I boldly opened my eyes, wow! Around me was a sea of 'flowers', all sorts of strange and exotic flowers competing with each other in beauty. Where had we ever seen such beautiful 'flowers' before? How could Feng have such a dream? His family is also from the countryside, where would he have the chance to see such lovely 'flowers'?

  I was lost in thought, strolling around while thinking that originally I and he were supposed to meet two years later. I was studying at the Normal University, he was studying at No. 1 Middle School, I went to No. 1 Middle School to find a classmate and got to know him, but we really started interacting after graduation. After getting married, I also knew that he especially liked flowers and plants, but those were ordinary flowers and plants. These unseen flowers probably only exist in fairy tales! Suddenly it flashed through my mind, yes, the sea of flowers in fairy tales, just like Mu's flower garden, but Mu's are all lilies.

  There's someone in front of me, I quietly walk up to him, and it's a familiar-looking young man. He truly has a face like jade, eyes like bright stars, eyebrows like ink paintings, and lips like they're painted with rouge. Isn't this my dear husband Ye Rufeng? But why is he dressed in ancient attire? Could it be...? Is he also time-traveling? No way, I have to believe Mu, I must be in my young husband's dream right now. He really dares to think that he's an ancient person, haha! I couldn't help but laugh out loud.

  "Who?" As the wind saw me stunned, he immediately got excited and hugged me tightly: "Ruòér, is that you? You finally came, I'm so happy, I was really afraid you wouldn't come. Ruòér, you're still my Ruòér."

  I was confused, and touched his forehead: "Don't have a fever? Why are you talking nonsense? Didn't we just meet? Why are you so excited? Besides, I'm not the kind of person who falls in love at first sight, you need to get to know me slowly before you'll like me." And besides, this is a dream, isn't it? How can it feel so real. I muttered to myself.
