Jinyun rolled his eyes and took several mouthfuls of rice. After having the hot food in his stomach, the sense of security finally made him sure that this was reality and not a dream.
"By the way, Sister Xi, I have a question for you."
Yun Xi put the peeled eggs into Jin Yun's bowl and said indifferently, "Speak."
“Can you interpret dreams?”
"Idiot, I studied medicine, not Feng Shui."
"Ah, I thought you would understand a little bit. I always thought you knew everything."
"...Did you just have a nightmare?"
"Yes."
Jinyun used chopsticks to split the egg into two halves and ate one half. He wanted to give the other half to the other party, but Yunxi glared back at him fiercely.
Seeing this, Jinyun could only shrink his neck and continue to answer:
"It's been strange lately. I often have some weird dreams. They can't be called nightmares, but they make me feel quite depressed."
"..."
"I dreamed that I entered a gray, empty world. It was shrouded in fog on all sides. There was nothing around me. Besides, there was a dark shadow chasing me."
"A classic nightmare. I don't understand Zhou Gong, but I can still play a few words with you."
"is it?"
"Dreaming about being chased and running away may mean that you feel stressed and fearful, uneasy and panicky, and anxious in real life.
There are only two things that can make adults feel stressed: career and relationships. I don't think you'd worry about your career, so there's only one possibility left."
As she spoke, a hint of ambiguity gradually emerged from Yun Xi's indifference, and she said with a half-smile:
"It seems that our little fledgling has finally thought of causing trouble for other girls."
"Don't tell me these jokes."
Jinyun rolled his eyes in annoyance.
If this sentence came from someone else's mouth, it would be nothing, but when it came from Yun Xi's mouth, Jin Yun suddenly felt a little sour in his heart.
Noticing Jinyun's slightly changed expression and the brief flash of disappointment in his eyes, Yun Xi couldn't help but be slightly startled, and then the corners of his mouth curled up slightly:
"Don't think about these things. The beginning of spring is the peak season for influenza, and the clinic is very short of staff. If you have nothing to do, help me more and don't run around everywhere, or you'll run into any trouble."
"Trouble? What kind of trouble could I be in?"
"I don't know," Yun Xi shrugged, "Like maybe he met a bad love relationship or something like that."
"......What are you talking about? Can't you say something nice about me?"
Jinyun curled his lips, not wanting to argue about this topic with the other party. He took several mouthfuls of rice in succession, filling his mouth.
Yun Xi chuckled, picked up his lunch box and left the rest room.
The moment the door closed, the faint smile on her face suddenly turned into mist and dissipated.
She came to the desk, put down her lunch box, took off her coat, rolled up her sleeves, and revealed her arms as tender as lotus roots.
Just on the outside of the arm, a thin needle wound was clearly visible in the air.
Yun Xi frowned slightly, and ran his fingers over the wound. The wound healed completely at a speed visible to the naked eye.
She immediately frowned and covered her forehead with a sad look:
"Jinyun, it seems that being a guardian is really not easy..."

Chapter 112 Set off to the Immortal Boat! (4K)
In the rest room, Jinyun was eating while thinking about the dream he had just had.
Because he had been thinking about the content of the dream, he unconsciously ignored the content outside the dream.
When Sister Xi woke him up, he clearly felt that the helmet on his head was taken away. When he opened his eyes and saw the helmet in the other person's hand, it confirmed that it was not an illusion.
In other words, I fell asleep before I took off my helmet.
The memories of taking off the helmet, having no signal on my phone, entering a world of nothingness, and being chased by the "Mirror Stream" were all dreams.
If this is true, it is too scary.
Although humans cannot know how they fall asleep, under normal circumstances, there is a period of preparation before falling asleep, and one can clearly feel the invasion of fatigue and the gradual decline of consciousness.
But there was no warning at all from waking up to falling asleep. I fell asleep as soon as I said I would. I was clearly logged out of the game one second, and fell asleep the next.
this......
Could it be that I am sick?
Jinyun quickly picked up his phone and typed his illness into the search box. Although the result was not as exaggerated as "amputation below the neck", it was scary enough.
Narcolepsy.
This is a chronic sleep disorder of unknown cause, clinically characterized by irresistible short-term sleep attacks, which often begin in childhood or adolescence, and manifest as excessive daytime sleepiness, hallucinations before falling asleep or after waking up, sleep paralysis, etc.
The onset of the disease is like a "power outage" and I fall asleep while walking.
This sentence is the essence of this disease.
As the saying goes, seeing a doctor online is the beginning of cancer.
Although Jinyun felt a chill in his heart after reading the search results, he was not stupid enough to believe it at first sight.
He finished his meal in a few bites, took the lunch box out to the rest room, threw it into the trash can outside the clinic, then ran to Yun Xi and showed him his phone screen:
"Sister Xi, there is something I don't know whether I should tell you or not."
Yun Xi responded coldly: "If you don't want to talk about it, don't talk about it."
“I might be dying!”
"?"
"look!"
Yun Xi frowned, read the content displayed on Jin Yun's phone screen, then his eyes twitched, and he resisted the urge to slap the other person, and said sarcastically:
"Don't worry, Master Jin is blessed with good fortune. He has always been thick-skinned and easy to raise since he was a child. It is impossible for him to get this kind of rich disease."
"...What is this about being blessed with a good fortune but having a cheap life?"
Jinyun found it hard to remain calm after hearing these words, but the other party's confident tone also made him feel a little doubtful.
Sister Xi's unquestionable tone gave people the feeling that she knew the reason why she had a nightmare.
Jinyun picked up his phone and opened the "Supporting Humanity" app. The game screen remained at the same level as when he left. The round time was paused, and Kiana was still sitting on the sofa.
Fortunately, it seems that I had logged out of the game before falling asleep, otherwise the time would have been wasted.
"Jinyun."
"what?"
Just when Jinyun felt relieved, Yunxi suddenly reminded him meaningfully: "Don't run around alone recently. No matter where you go, you must let me know."
"Why are you suddenly saying this?"
"What if you are really sick?"
"...Now I am sick again, right?"
Jinyun's mouth twitched slightly, and he had some doubts about Yunxi's meaningful advice in his heart, but he did not show it.
In fact, he himself had noticed that many things seemed a little strange recently, and this strange feeling seemed to have arisen when he took his mother on a trip.
To be more precise, after Bronya's training was completed and she was promoted to a senior administrator, something felt wrong.
The most obvious thing is that my mother’s illness was cured without treatment.
Miracles like curing terminal illnesses are naturally good things, but are they really just miracles?
After finishing the work at the clinic, I invited Sister Xi to have dinner at my house as usual. The family sat together and chatted until ten o'clock before going to bed.
Living with family, the time spent playing games naturally decreases a lot. Jinyun decided to ask Yunxi for a day off tomorrow and then play games hard for a whole day.
After all, it is better to spend time playing games than helping out in a clinic or looking for a job with a monthly salary of $4,000.
At least Star Network gave him real bonus!
Once you are promoted to senior administrator, you will receive 100 million in cash without any ambiguity.
I’m afraid we can’t find such an honest Internet company in China. It deserves to become bigger and stronger!
If you go one step further and obtain developer privileges, I don't know how much the bonus will be, but it will definitely be more than 100 million.
To be honest, given the current social environment and the opportunities for young people to rise, for a college student like Jinyun who has a liberal arts background and does not have core science and engineering skills, it is probably just a dream to earn one million by working.
After taking a shower, Jinyun put on the VR helmet and entered the game while it was still early, intending to focus on the plot for a while.
This time when logging into the game, he did not encounter the loading bug like in the dream. The game scene loaded quickly. After the dazzling white light faded away, Jinyun opened his eyes and found himself in the game world.
Time was suspended in this space, and it was frozen at the moment he left.
Jinyun snapped his fingers, and the game time started flowing again, and the still air and dust resumed their movement trajectory.
Kiana, who had recovered, was stunned for several seconds, and then asked Jinyun a soul-searching question:
"Stupid teacher! When did you get to the fireplace?!"
Jinyun was stunned for a moment, then he remembered that the last time he left the game, he was standing at the window and looking into the eyes of Kiana who was sitting on the sofa.
"Ahem." Jinyun coughed twice and lied, "I just lowered the curtains and came over. You were distracted."
"is it?"
"Yeah, because Kiana is stupid."
"You are the idiot!"
Kiana pouted and glared at Jinyun with her deep blue eyes.
"There's no point in glaring at me. Go to bed now. You have to get up early tomorrow. I have something to tell you."
"What is it? Can't you tell me now?"
"You are looking for trouble. I told you to talk to you tomorrow morning. I was afraid you would not be able to sleep after hearing this."
"Humph! I'm not that active."
Despite her grumbling, Kiana still obediently climbed onto the bed in her bedroom.
However, before Jinyun could turn off the lights and say goodnight, the little girl started to act up again:
"Stupid teacher, I want to hear your story!"
"..."
Considering that she would definitely throw a tantrum and act like a spoiled child if he didn't get her way, Jinyun couldn't say no even though the words were on the tip of his tongue.
He sighed, picked up a fairy tale from the bookshelf and began to tell it:
"A long time ago, there was a girl named Cinderella. Because she was very good at plastering on construction sites, people called her Cinderella..."
"? Why do I feel like this story wasn't like this when I read it before?"
"Shut up and listen to me. In short, this is an inspirational story about a girl who broke the feudal ethics, smashed the glass shoes, abandoned the cultural dregs of foot binding, and finally led women's liberation..."
Kiana had a lot of question marks in her head, but as Jinyun continued to talk, she became more and more fascinated. Her big blue eyes kept blinking, full of joy.
She didn't remember her past memories, nor had she ever felt much kindness. Jinyun was the first person who showed kindness to her without having met her before. Not only was he infinitely tolerant of her little willfulness, but he also thought of her first when he had something delicious to eat.
These good intentions were like a seed planted in Kiana's heart. With the time they spent together as nutrients, the seed continued to take root and sprout, and finally grew into a towering tree under the catalysis of time.
After Kiana fell asleep, Jinyun put the storybook on the bedside table, reached out and gently touched her forehead:
"Although I really want to say good night, I don't think it's necessary. After all, for me, this night will pass quickly."
He smiled, opened the UI interface, and accelerated the time dozens of times. Only five minutes of real time had passed, and the sky in the game ushered in dawn again.
