My Exclusive Dream World Adventures
Chapter 301 - Chapter 301 301 Ill help you

Chapter 301: 301 I’ll help you Chapter 301: 301 I’ll help you Chen Xu sat there motionless, gazing steadily at Luo Xiyun, feeling a bit dumbfounded. He had thought that after immersing himself in dreams for thirty years, his heart had become as firm as a rock, and nothing could surprise him anymore.

Now, he knew he was wrong.

He had acted out of respect, making no move to force her against her will. But to her, it was as if he was doing it on purpose.

Whenever he tried to take things a step further, wasn’t it she who sternly stopped him?

Wasn’t it difficult for him to endure? It had been nearly ten years.

But none of that mattered anymore.

Without an explanation, he walked over and lifted her out of the chair.

“What are you doing, don’t touch me, mmh–” She struggled violently, but her words were cut off halfway.

Chen Xu held her like that, went straight into the room, and with a bang, shut the door, leaving behind a table of untouched food.

An hour later.

Chen Xu felt a burning pain on his back. He took a mirror from the bedside table and saw several bloody scratches on his back, all made by Luo Xiyun.

“Does it hurt?” Luo Xiyun asked next to him, her voice somewhat hoarse, reaching out to gently touch the marks.

“It hurts.”

“Good,” Luo Xiyun said, then got up, wrapped in a thin sheet, and went into the bathroom where she retrieved a tube of ointment.

……

A month passed in the blink of an eye.

“Why don’t you leave tomorrow?” Chen Xu asked, holding Luo Xiyun’s hand, reluctant to let her go.

Luo Xiyun looked at him helplessly, “You said the same thing yesterday, and the day before. I can’t do that today, I have to leave.”

Chen Xu knew that she really had to go, so he said, “Then when I wake up, I’ll come find you.”

“Even if you come find me, I won’t see you,” Luo Xiyun said, breaking free from his hand and walking towards the Life Support Chamber.

“You can’t stop me.” Chen Xu didn’t try to stop her this time, watching as she lay down in the Life Support Chamber; the lid closed, gas was injected, and she soon closed her eyes.

Shortly after the Life Support Chamber resumed its position, the light on another Life Support Chamber nearby turned on, indicating that Yang Jinxia was about to come online.

Chen Xu thought to himself how close that was; if the two of them had met, he didn’t know what might have happened.

About ten minutes later, Yang Jinxia emerged from the Life Support Chamber. She looked at Chen Xu and suddenly said with a hint of surprise, “You seem very happy…”

Chen Xu said, “Of course I’m happy to see you.”

“No, it’s different.” Jinxia moved closer, sniffed slightly, and realized, “You finally managed to handle her?”

From her sniffing, Chen Xu knew that she had discovered the scent Luo Xiyun left on him; he didn’t know quite what to say.

Yang Jinxia gave a faint smile and said, “Another woman in the house, how could I not notice? Even if you hide that room, you can’t hide it from me. Besides, every time I go online, your mood is a bit off, a bit downcast, not reluctant.”

Chen Xu couldn’t help but sigh, “I can’t hide anything from you.”

“But, you really are slow; it took you so many years to finally settle her,” Luo Yang Jinxia’s smile held a hint of mockery. “Since she chose to enter the dream and be alone with you, it means she has already compromised in her heart. Yet, you’ve never seized the opportunity.”

Chen Xu knew she must be uncomfortable inside, waited for her to finish before suggesting, “I’ll go back and make some porridge for you.”

Yang Jinxia glanced at him, wanted to say something but suddenly noticed the wrinkles at the corner of his eyes, and her heart softened, “You’ve been here for so many years, it’s time for you to go back, isn’t it?”

“Yes, I should go back.” When Chen Xu heard her say so, his heart warmed, he took her hand and said, “After this year is over, I’ll go back.”

Yang Jinxia did not pull her hand away and said, “Fine, but you’re not allowed to sleep in my room this entire year.”

“Ah?” Chen Xu’s face twisted in distress.

Yang Jinxia laughed, “It’s for your health, you’re almost sixty, you need to be moderate.”

“It’s not…”

“That’s settled then.” Yang Jinxia cheerfully walked towards the living area.

Chen Xu shook his head, knowing she was just irked but didn’t take her words to heart.

After the ordeal with Luo Xiyun, the biggest lesson he had learned was that one should not be too honest in life, especially in matters between men and women. Sometimes, a girlfriend’s words are just said in a moment of anger, but taking them seriously could really be asking for trouble.

The next day, a recovered Yang Jinxia and Chen Xu went into the study together.

She did not sit down but walked to the laboratory table, looking at a huge machine placed on it, and asked, “What is this?”

“A reactionless drive engine,” Chen Xu said, moving his fingers slightly as a long mechanical arm extended beside him.

Yang Jinxia asked somewhat surprised, “You’ve advanced the technology to this stage?”

The so-called reactionless drive engine, completely different from the traditional jet engines, could directly use electricity for propulsion, marking a crucial step into the interstellar era.

Traditional jet engines, carrying large amounts of chemical fuel, had a definite range limit.

But the reactionless drive engine, needing only a nuclear fusion generator, has no such limitations in range. If the thrust was strong enough, for the current Earth, it would definitely be groundbreaking technology.

Chen Xu shook his head, “There are too many related papers, I can’t remember all, and with the current technological level on Earth, even building the first generation might not be feasible. I’m just accumulating knowledge for now; whether to release it later will depend on the situation.”

Yang Jinxia looked at him and said, “You really have changed. Previously, you definitely wouldn’t have touched such sensitive stuff, fearing it would bring trouble.”

“People trying to live a peaceful life in this world is a luxury. Even the basic premise of financial freedom, most people can’t achieve.”

As Chen Xu directed the mechanical arm, he reflected, “Even if you solve financial freedom, there are still plenty of problems; marrying a wife is one, if she doesn’t love you, you worry, if she loves you too much, you’re annoyed. Having children is another; whether they behave, whether they get bullied at school, their academic performance, if they pick up bad habits, teenage love worries, post-college relationship issues…”

“As you age, your wife enters menopause, you start having health problems… These worries accompany you for a lifetime.”

“If you see all these as troubles, life really would be quite tough. So, it’s better to be optimistic, not take these as troubles but as essential experiences of life, find more joy. If capable, then do more, contributing to the country and such is secondary. What matters most is following your own heart. If you see something disagreeable, do something about it. If personal power isn’t enough, I’ll use advanced technology to knock them all down.”

Yang Jinxia, her eyes shining, said, “I’ll help you.”
