Chapter 387: Running away or staying, both will lead to a dilemma! (4k)

“I want to go outside with Ayano to sketch and talk to her alone. Can you give me an hour?”

Ai Li watched Qingyou say these words with a righteous look on his face and thought to herself, are you a human being?

Before she could complain, Qingyou added, “It’s just a simple chat. If she wants to do that, I will reject her… After all, you can see the surveillance video. Don’t you want to see Ayano’s itchy heart but being rejected by me?”

“Okay, then I’ll invite her over, and you can chat in front of me.”

“Then she’ll be shy. You know, if you want to repair your best friend relationship, you have to give me some space.”

What Qingyou said did make some sense, but Airi didn’t want to reconcile with Ayano… at least not right now.

So she forbad Qingyou to accompany her.

“If you want to chat, I…you come with me.” Ai Li was a little stiff, because they were not the type who could chat anytime and anywhere. In order to avoid the embarrassment of silence, she thought about it and found a topic that was somewhat meaningful, “I think Xiaotong should care about you a lot.”

“How come you see?”

“When I joked with them this morning, she not only took it seriously, but also cried so hard!”

“A normal girl would cry easily if she was scared. Suddenly she saw the blood-stained shirt of her senior in the company… I think she was just scared. You are over-interpreting it.”

Qingyou certainly wouldn’t discuss his doubts about Shimamura Hitomi with Airi. For someone like Airi who lacks emotional experience, it’s good enough that she can handle the conflict with a best friend. If she continues to have conflicts with Shimamura Hitomi, she will probably become even more mentally unstable.

Almost done.

Unable to talk to Ayano face to face, Qingyou had to send her a message to ask her if her san value was still stable.

In fact, Teacher Metamorphosis Butterfly has a Cthulhu-themed book, which Qingyou likes very much. In it, there is a girl with a tentacle tail. The tentacles are wrapped around her body, covering key points. Qingyou wants to see Ayano cosplay that.

[There’s no point in worrying about me. You should worry about Xiaotong instead.]

【? 】

I think she is in a bad mood now.

Ayano guessed half right. Shimamura Hitomi did have some emotional problems, but she was not in a very bad mood. People’s mood is always closely related to the environment. For example, Shimamura Hitomi is now in a much better situation with Bai Jinyu chatting with her.

“…I don’t think there’s anything to worry about. Even if your senior decides to stay, then what? Can’t you still see each other every day and have a tryst in your dreams at night?”

“Well, that’s the truth, but…well.” Shimamura Hitomi clenched her hands in confusion.

Perhaps she was a little greedy. After hearing about her senior’s elopement plan, she began to look forward to it endlessly.

Let’s not talk about eloping. Qingyou seems to have realized her intentions. So, will Qingyou still treat her so tolerantly? If we look at her by the same standard, she is actually not as good as the eldest lady or Ayano. Shimamura Hitomi knows her own weight.

If she loses her so-called “innocence”, how much is she worth in Qingyou’s heart?
Seeing the child struggling again, Bai Jinyu smiled mysteriously: “Little sister, instead of struggling here, why don’t you do an experiment to see whether Qingyou really wants to have sex or not? Practice makes perfect, which is much more useful than struggling here with your imagination.”

“…What should we do?”

“Show me your Dream Wanderer app.”

Hitomi Shimamura suddenly realized that although she had confessed her superpowers to Bai Jinyu a long time ago, Bai Jinyu had not seen her software interface so far. What should she say? This sister has a strong sense of propriety. She seems to like to talk back at people and is not in a good mood, but in fact, she has a very high emotional intelligence. Anyway, Hitomi Shimamura feels that she will never be able to do it in this life.

“Hmm… I see. There are actually quite a lot of optional parameters… Then this one of yours will be very useful. By the way, to be on the safe side, let me ask you first, how much do you love your predecessor? If it is for his good, are you willing to make a decision that makes you uncomfortable and suffer for Qingyou?”

“Of course I am willing!” Shimamura Hitomi said immediately.

Bai Jinyu nodded: “Okay, then do as I say. First, change the sleep lock menu to the snacks you had together at noon, and then you…”

“…”

Everything is ready.

Hitomi Shimamura lay obediently on the bed.

Wink.

No sleepiness at all.

Of course, this is usually not a problem, because lucid dreams are wonderful. Since she got the Dream Wanderer, Hitomi Shimamura has figured out a full range of ways to fall asleep, the simplest of which is the airplane sleeping method… But Bai Jinyu is still there, and she is embarrassed to do it herself.

So she took out some sleeping pills from her bag. She bought them from a regular pharmacy. Shimamura Hitomi didn’t use them much, and so far, she hasn’t developed drug resistance.

……

“…Then, from now on, you will officially become the president of the Chihaya Group, young lady.”

In front of the floor-to-ceiling window, looking at the streets with flickering lights and endless flow of people in the evening, Chihaya Airi was a little absent-minded.

“Congratulations, sister! You are now the youngest president of a financial group. Our family will surely get better and better under your leadership!”

Ningning Ogiso, wearing a maid skirt, white silk stockings and over-the-knee socks, stood nearby and looked quite excited.

On the other side of the office, Qingyou was making coffee.

Ai Li also has a coffee machine in her office at the consortium’s headquarters, but she usually doesn’t use it herself. She only makes some coffee when Qingyou comes.

In theory, the shelf life of coffee beans is very long. In reality, the best tasting period of most varieties after opening the bag is very short. The taste will become vague after being stored for a long time… Some individual varieties are not affected much.

Qingyou looked at the bag of light red beans with fruity flavor in his hand, which were easily damaged by moisture, and then checked in his mind. Great, all the waste was gone.

It’s a lucid dream.

Entering a lucid dream is a bit like undergoing a general anesthesia surgery. In the last second you are still chatting with the doctor, and in the next second you enter the stage of waking up after the surgery.

If all the dreams in the past were constructed by Xiaotong herself, it would actually be a remarkable thing. Although many details were missing, the overall atmosphere was realistic enough.

Qingyou doesn’t really like to explore the philosophical proposition of “the boundary between reality and illusion”. As long as it is sustainable happiness, he will not resist it.

Press the coffee powder into a solid powder cake, then install the coffee handle on the machine, press the extraction button, and wait for the coffee concentrate to fall into the cup.

Qingyou turned his head and met Aili’s burning gaze.

Then I would like to ask, why did Hitomi Shimamura want to construct such a dream?
Is it to test whether I will really make the decision to elope with her?
Logically speaking, even if Qingyou really wanted to run, he would never wait until Aili’s official inheritance was completed before taking action. Wouldn’t it be better to steal a wave while Aili was the busiest? As expected, Xiaotong had no experience in doing bad things, and even the dream she constructed was a little too pure.

From this perspective, even if she deliberately used dreams to seduce Qingyou, it would be difficult to conceal her innocent nature.

“I’ll wait for you here until you finish your socializing and we can go home together.” Under Ai Li’s adorable gaze, Qing You said the standard answer without hesitation. Ai Li walked quickly in front of him and looked at him with her face slightly raised.

“You’ll wait for me here obediently, right?”

“Ah.”

“wait for me.”

Ai Li gave Qing You a tight hug, stretched out her long legs, and went out to do some work. There would probably be a banquet tonight, and the top executives of the consortium would be in attendance.

On the way, Ai Li looked back several times, which made Qingyou quite touched.

If it really comes to this, I’m afraid he won’t be willing to give up.

But fortunately, Qingyou realized Shimamura Hitomi’s suspiciousness in advance, so the answer to how to behave in this lucid dream is obvious.

After Aili’s footsteps faded away in the corridor, Qingyou walked behind Aili’s desk and pressed the button hidden under the desk.

The hidden door hidden by the potted plants opens.

Following the emergency evacuation passage, Qingyou went straight to the underground parking lot.

Instead of driving his own car, he found a car owned by a special military officer in the group and retrieved the NFC key card of the car from his mobile phone.

I have used it before when doing business, and the key information is left in the phone.

Qingyou didn’t know how strict the settings in the dream would be, but she thought it would be easier to escape by driving someone else’s car.

Even if you can’t escape, just show that you are serious about running away.

Bon Voyage.

Qingyou meets up with Shimamura Hitomi at the airport.

She put on the sports suit she used to wear. Although her clothing style had been downgraded, it did become much more inconspicuous, which was in line with the tone of her escape.

“Senior!” Shimamura Hitomi shouted in a joyful and hurried voice, then looked around and lowered her voice, “Let’s go to security check quickly. Boarding starts in less than 20 minutes. Well, we should be in time.”

“Ah.”

Qingyou took Shimamura Hitomi’s hand and quickly walked towards the security check hall.

Being held by Qingyou’s large and powerful hands, Shimamura Hitomi felt a warm current flowing through her body. Her arms swayed slightly and her body pressed close to Qingyou, feeling the soft and warm touch accompanied by the girl’s silly smile.

“what’s wrong?”

“Well, I thought Senior wasn’t coming.”

“That’s impossible. I have to calm down Airi first and let her attend the Chihaya Group’s dinner. Otherwise, how can I get away?”

“Well, that’s right, Senior is right, I didn’t think it through. Senior… I will try to be smarter in the future, not to hold you back, and become your good wife!”

Shimamura Hitomi kept muttering for a long time, and then the two separated at the security checkpoint.

Only then did Qingyou have the time to pay attention to where they had booked the tickets to.

Ok.

It has to be the hometown of the previous life… Qingyou walked out of the security check gate, carrying his bag, and walked towards Shimamura Hitomi. Seeing that Shimamura Hitomi’s collar was a little crooked, he helped her straighten it out, carried her suitcase, and naturally assumed the role of a gentle husband.

It seems that it is no different from any previous dream, senior.

Hitomi Shimamura secretly breathed a sigh of relief. What she feared the most was that Qingyou would no longer play with her, and as soon as he saw her in the dream, he would start talking to her very seriously… Qingyou was actually quite scary when he became serious, but he rarely put on airs.

But now it seems… Qingyou hasn’t realized her problem yet?
Before going to bed, Bai Jinyu helped Shimamura Hitomi to sort out her thoughts. This time, in addition to verifying whether Qingyou wanted to take her away, there was also a more fundamental question: whether Qingyou had doubts about her and the nature of dreams.

Hitomi Shimamura also asked Bai Jinyu, based on her understanding of Qingyou, whether she had been exposed?
Bai Jinyu smiled without saying anything, saying that practice makes perfect.

So, probably… the situation is not bad, Qingyou is still unaware and is seriously completing the dream experience.

Coincidentally, Qingyou was thinking about similar things.

You must continue to act, and maintain the attitude of enjoying the dream, with an expression as if you are kept in the dark and know nothing.

This performance is still quite valuable, it requires consideration of many details and it can’t be too artificial.

There are some things in the world that once you get the hang of it, it is difficult to go back to the state before the hang of it, such as swimming and mathematics. The difference between the people who really know how to do it and those who really don’t is too great.

Qingyou pretended to be stupid cautiously. For example, as soon as he got on the plane, his hands became restless. He put his arm around Shimamura Hitomi’s shoulders, sometimes pinching her cheeks, sometimes rubbing them, with quite strong force, the kind that almost made Shimamura Hitomi unable to bear it and make a sound. Soon, Shimamura Hitomi’s ears turned red and her face became hot. Of course, it was also related to the fact that the heater on the plane was turned on very high.

He must maintain his usual style in lucid dreams: more daring than in the real world, such as his ever-surging desire for Hitomi Shimamura.

It was not until Shimamura Hitomi begged for mercy in a weak voice that Qingyou let her go and allowed her to snuggle tightly in his arms.

Ugh……

Life is so difficult that I have to keep my acting skills up even when I’m dreaming.

Qingyou felt a little numb.

Before he had time to sigh for much time, Xiaotong in his arms suddenly asked a question that made Qingyou’s teeth ache:
“Senior, when we get there, should we rent a house first? Or should we stay in a hotel for a while and then consider buying a house? Hmm, I wonder if it is convenient for a foreigner to buy a house there…”

good question!
It turns out that Xiaotong has already thought about this kind of detail-level problem on her own?
Qingyou regrets it now, very much!

If I had known this earlier, I wouldn’t have told her about my escape plan in the dream.

Now, the girl has started to think about the details, and has even figured out the accommodation issue after landing. If Xiaotong is given more time to think about it, she might even know how many children she will have in the future and which international school they will go to.

No, ladies.

You are so proactive, have you ever considered Aili’s anger?
Regardless of what Qingyou himself thinks, the current situation is not suitable for running away. There is Aili who is bound to go crazy, and there is Ayano who is a time bomb. To be honest, Qingyou has already given up the plan of eloping. However, looking at Xiaotong’s eyes full of hope and longing…

Now I tell you that the elopement plan is cancelled, how can I not explode? I want to ask you?
It’s such a beautiful lucid dream, let’s just look at Yang Guofu Malatang in the distance.
