Zhong Yi originally thought that Gu Yun's deep longing for his deceased wife meant that the two must have been very close.
Unexpectedly, as soon as he and Qin Li'en landed, the first thing they heard was Gu Yun and Lin Xi arguing.
Lin Xi is sick, very sick.
Gu Yun wanted to sell his possessions to find medical treatment for Lin Xi.
Lin Xi's refusal was decisive, resolute, and firm.
That tone alone suggested a stubborn person.
"I need that money... to save you! Little Creek!!"
Gu Yun's face turned bright red with anxiety.
“I know Anya is important to you, but you... went a little too far.”
As he spoke, Gu Yun hesitated, as if he wanted to say something but then stopped.
"She's not even... she's not even..."
Lin Xi sat on the bed, her deep eyes still trying to devour Gu Yun.
"Gu Yun".
She spoke slowly, each word deliberate and measured:
"Do you know what makes me happy?"
"What?"
You know that, right?
"..."
Seeing Gu Yun's blank expression, Lin Xi slowly closed her eyes and answered to herself, "But I know."
Zhong Yi was completely bewildered by this dialogue.
Because every word Lin Xi spoke was incomprehensible to him.
"Just tell me! He'll know once you do!"
Zhong Yi was getting a little frantic.
Qin Li'en, standing to the side, frowned, clearly equally confused.
After waiting for a long time, Lin Xi still didn't say what would make her happy, only saying that Gu Yun would definitely achieve it for her.
In order to extinguish Gu Yun's hopes, Lin Xi resolutely stated that she would never allow any doctor to take her pulse or examine her.
"You can decide how to use our money. If you want to fulfill my wish, I hope you can use it to build that house."
"I hope you live there every day, watch over her... stay with her, and comfort her."
"I hope she won't be alone anymore."
Hearing this, Zhong Yi vaguely understood some of the clues.
Based on the timeline, Gu Yun should have sold this house and moved into the new house built on the cliff in reality.
But there are still many things he cannot understand.
for example,
Who is Anya?
Why does Lin Xi value her more than his own life?
Why must houses be built in such dangerous locations?
Why......
At this moment, Zhong Yi had even forgotten that this was a fantasy world themed around love.
His mind was full of questions, and he couldn't wait to unravel the mystery.
"Ah!! Never mind, I'll just... uh??"
Zhong Yigang wanted to relinquish his "observer" status and ask his questions face-to-face.
I never expected my skill bar to be completely grayed out.
"Senior sister, what are you doing..."
He looked at Qin Li'en beside him with a hint of resentment.
This illusionary world was originally constructed by Qin Li'en, and since the other party's cultivation level was above his own, it was clear that many of his privileges had been restricted.
“I know you have a lot of questions... but they’re irrelevant to our mission.”
Qin Li'en reminded him.
"We, the Dream Weavers, are destined to witness life and death, separation and parting... so you'll have to get used to it."
"But you just solved it yourself... Huh? Huh huh huh!!"
As Zhong Yi was speaking, a crow's beak suddenly grew out of his mouth, making him so angry that he couldn't speak.
Just then.
“I made this, Gu Yun.”
Suddenly, Lin Xi took out a blue and yellow origami rabbit from under her pillow and handed it to Gu Yun.
Tell me, what is it?
"Um?"
"I want you to tell me what it is."
"A...rabbit?"
Gu Yun frowned, his gaze sweeping over the countless other paper rabbits on the ground.
Clearly, this wasn't the first time he'd been asked this question.
"Just like these rabbits, you made them all by hand."
"Anything else?"
Lin Xi's eyes were deep and unfathomable.
"Made of paper."
"Anything else?"
Lin Xi spoke more quickly, as if she had heard some kind of answer.
"Its body is yellow, and its limbs and head are blue?"
"That's very true, is there anything else?"
"Well......"
Faced with Lin Xi's persistent questioning, Gu Yun seemed somewhat embarrassed and it took him a while to change the subject.
"Little Stream, I've written a song for you. Would you like to hear it?"
Lin Xi lowered her head slightly, a hint of disappointment flashing in her eyes, but she finally nodded: "I want to."
"Then I'll play it for you!"
When the topic of playing the zither came up, Gu Yun sat down excitedly beside the seven-stringed zither.
He carried this up from downstairs especially for Lin Xi.
"This piece of music is called 'Remembering Linxi'."
"What a rustic name."
Lin Xi commented as follows.
Gu Yun wasn't annoyed; she closed her eyes and began to play the zither earnestly.
Golden sunlight streamed through the window and fell on Linxi's face.
As the melodious tune began to play, everything seemed to come alive.
"This woman... she's so strange!"
Zhong Yi angrily complained.
He was live streaming at the time, and as time went on, more and more people were watching the stream.
Zhong Yi's words resonated with many viewers in the live chat.
【That's right!】
This is utterly unreasonable.
【It's just a paper rabbit, isn't it? They seem quite dissatisfied with the old man's answer.】
【Gu Yun wrote such a wonderful piece of music, and the first comment was that the name was too corny... Amazing!】
【What was the purpose of Lu Laomo's scheme against this couple?】
【It feels like they deliberately paired us up badly to make you think your senior sister is alright?】
...
After being reminded by the comments, Zhong Yi actually realized that there was such a thing.
Compared to Lin Xi, who was obsessive and loved to tell riddles, Qin Li'en, her senior sister, was becoming more and more pleasing to the eye.
"etc......"
Zhong Yi suddenly realized something was wrong.
"The biggest problem with this illusion is Elder Guo Yunfeng..."
"This trick might be somewhat useful for us, but will it really work on Elder Guo Yunfeng?"
...
...
Guo Yunfeng's dream world.
"Who is this Anya?"
"If it's so important, why haven't I remembered it?"
"Could it be that Gu Yun didn't keep his promise... Pshaw! How could a good man like Gu Yun not keep his promise!"
"Junior sister, you're a woman too, why don't you analyze for your senior brother what Lin Xi is thinking?"
...
Guo Yunfeng's ears were filled with Xu Ci's incessant chatter.
'Trying to make me respect this piece of trash by being worse than him?'
Guo Yunfeng sneered inwardly.
In her opinion, no matter how Lu Ze designed the plot, she would never think highly of Xu Ci, let alone experience "love" with him!
No matter how you look at it, Lu Ze has absolutely no chance of winning this proposition.
Let alone her, even if you summoned the Holy Maiden Liu Mengli, it probably wouldn't cause the slightest disturbance.
Guo Yunfeng ignored Xu Ci and focused on collecting dream power and searching for fragments of memory.
"Senior brother, the old man doesn't have much time left."
Guo Yunfeng gave a reminder and poured all her dream power into it.
This time, the fragment of memory is that pot of blue-purple wildflowers.

【I'm updating like crazy; I'll release all four chapters at once once they're finished.】
【I've racked my brains to cut out some minor, harmless content; there's absolutely no filler material.】
【This game is all setup at the beginning, so it will definitely be boring the first time you read it... I'll try to get to the plot twist as quickly as possible. If you don't understand it, you can read it all at once in a few days.】
