Chapter 13 Entering the City of Dreams

Ye Tingbai sat behind Li Xiaoxiao, and her hands were awkward. There used to be a big tin can behind her, so it was okay to hug her, but now it's not right to hug her waist.

Ye Tingbai: "By the way, where is Johnson?"

Li Xiaoxiao: "I'm working as a coolie for Grandpa Xie."

Ye Tingbai hummed and didn't know what to say. The two of them were so embarrassed all the way. After getting off the car, Li Xiaoxiao said "Have a good sleep" and turned around to leave.

Ye Tingbai looked up and saw that the lights in his home were still on. He strolled towards his home. What was strange was that his alter ego took the initiative to speak today.

"You seem panicked?"

Ye Tingbai didn't know how to answer. His emotions were very complicated now. Emotionally, he wanted to talk to his mother about the bad things he had encountered these days, but his reason told him not to.

No matter what aspect, these things are inappropriate to talk to Chen Lan, and is this woman real?

Ye Tingbai: "More or less."

"I can sense you want to chat with that woman, why are you resisting yourself?"

Ye Tingbai laughed at himself, even the alternate personality could be seen better than himself, so what was he struggling with? Ye Tingbai bought a set of bedding downstairs and went upstairs. When he opened the door, he saw Chen

Lan sat at the dinner table, staring at the cold food.

"Mom, what are you doing? Why don't you watch TV?"

Chen Lan suddenly woke up and quickly walked over to Ye Tingbai to take the quilt.

"I don't know how to do that. You got off work too late today. I'll go and heat up your meal."

Looking at the busy woman, Ye Tingbai felt inexplicably more at ease. Everything in the house was tidied up and all the dirty clothes were washed.

After Chen Lan finished heating the dishes, she returned to the table. She stared at Ye Tingbai's face.

"Son, you seem to have changed a lot."

"What has changed?"

Chen Lan: "I am more assertive than before, and I feel more confident in speaking."

Ye Tingbai smiled. Confidence is directly linked to a person's strength. Ye Tingbai's strength is constantly growing, and his vision and knowledge have improved to a considerable extent. It would be strange if there was no change.

Chen Lan: "I seem to have forgotten something. I thought about it for a long time during the day and couldn't remember how I got here. Your father himself has no food to eat at home."

Ye Tingbai: "You, you were in a car accident before, so I took you to the city for treatment. It's already December now. You've been in a coma for a month, and you probably have forgotten a lot of things."

Chen Lan's frown suddenly relaxed.

"That's right. No wonder I can't remember anything. I feel fine now. You can send me back when you want."

Ye Tingbai could only smile bitterly. Now the home in his memory was already Yi Mo's shelter, and he couldn't enter at all now.

After dinner, Ye Tingbai and Chen Lan sat on the sofa and chatted for a long time. Most of the time, Ye Tingbai was making up some wonderful life experiences for Chen Lan, although he knew that it was all fake, and even the woman in front of him might

It's fake, but he is very comfortable.

Ye Tingbai fell asleep while chatting. He slept very soundly that night. When he woke up in the morning, Chen Lan had already started making breakfast. Ye Tingbai ate something casually and went out. Today was the dream

The day when the city invited him.

When Ye Tingbai walked downstairs, he saw a particularly conspicuous black Beetle parked at the entrance of the community. The driver was a tall and thin Caucasian with a neatly combed back hair. He waved to Ye Tingbai

, and immediately ran out of the car.

He walked in front of Ye Tingbai and bowed slightly.

"Hello, I am a staff member of Dream City. Are you satisfied with the gift?"

Ye Tingbai: "You call her a gift?"

The man immediately apologized: "It was my mistake. I shouldn't have said that. The City of Dreams sincerely invites you to go there, where any dream you have can come true."

Ye Tingbai shook his head.

"I don't have any dreams, but I'm pretty good now."

The man was stunned for a moment, as if he had not expected the answer, and continued to explain patiently.

"The City of Dreams will open once every ten years, and a lucky person will be selected to realize any of his dreams. After the dream is realized, you can choose to leave, or stay there and continue living."

Ye Tingbai said impatiently: "I told you, I don't have any dreams. Let's give this opportunity to others."

The man curled his lips.

"If you give up this opportunity, she will disappear completely and will never be able to appear in this world again."

Ye Tingbai suddenly reached out and grabbed the man's neck and choked him up.

"What are you doing?"

The man was pinched by Ye Tingbai so hard that he had no power to resist, but he did not struggle, as if he was bent on death. Ye Tingbai helplessly put down his arms and got into the car.

At least now he doesn't want Chen Lan to disappear, and he also wants to see what this so-called dream city is.

After the car started and drove about a hundred meters, the scenery outside the window became blurry, and he himself did not feel any discomfort. After the surrounding scenery became clear, he had arrived in a completely unfamiliar place.

A city with a mixed medieval style, with red bricks and blue tiles, courtyard houses, and small European and American-style villas. The streets are quite lively. Most of the things these people set up stalls to sell are food, and the fruits look very fresh and delicious.

.

The man explained while driving.

"The City of Dreams has a history of tens of thousands of years, and there are different human beings from all eras here, and they have different living habits, so don't be surprised to see anyone here."

Ye Tingbai murmured in a low voice.

"Ten thousand years?"

"According to your understanding, sir, the emergence of the City of Dreams probably began in the Second Era. This is the place that everyone dreams of. You will definitely not regret it."

After passing through the bustling small town, the Beetle came to a castle in the center of the city. This castle was about four or five stories high, covering an area about the size of a football field, and was surrounded by a moat. Modern technology was extremely rare here.

.

Under the guidance of the staff, Ye Tingbai was taken into the lobby. As soon as he entered the door, he was attracted by four other people dressed similarly to him. With their confused eyes and aura, they were definitely not local residents here.

"You guys can chat first, I'll invite the city lord to come over."

There was nothing special about the four people, two men and two women. They were just ordinary people. Ye Tingbai also took the initiative to communicate with them. These people seemed very happy, so they all asked Ye Tingbai the same questions.

answer.

It seems that they have also been brainwashed by the so-called gifts.

There is no free lunch in the world, and those things without a price tag are the most expensive, so expensive that you may not be able to repay them at all.

The previous occupations of these four people were police officers, unemployed homeboys, pharmaceutical factory workers, and a researcher.
