Chapter 24 - Chapter 24: I Offer Myself

"If only you were real."

The girl could faintly be heard saying in a dream-like mumble, but Alex was in a state of high mental tension and quickly ignored it.

The feeling of spending the night in the car wasn't good. They went to find a hotel overnight. When he held Chen Yuqian's soft body to sleep, Alex's spirit finally felt a trace of fatigue. Even his strong physique didn't give him the stamina to plow the field until it was ruined, but fortunately, this was a dream.

The next morning, Alex and Chen Luoqiu arrived at the company to see Chen Ruyun in the office.

Chen Ruyun's gaze fell on Chen Yuqian's face, and ripples stirred in her calm heart. Chen Yuqian's face, glowing with satisfaction, made her understand exactly what they had done, and her own heart became unsettled as well.

Her gaze swept over the silent Alex, and Chen Ruyun took a deep breath, looked at Chen Yuqian, and asked, "You want to work here?"

Chen Yuqian nodded. Originally, she had wanted to be a policewoman, but she didn't like it much. This was just a dream anyway, so there was no need to force herself.

"Fine, for now, you can be my secretary."

Chen Ruyun finally agreed. Chen Yuqian and she were both Chen Luoqiu; the two had just had their memories diverge from the plane ride, but because the time wasn't very long, their thoughts weren't much different.

This company had significant strength. If they could work here, or even become management, it would be quite useful for them.

Although they didn't understand what was going on, after waking up, they remembered everything in the dream. The vivid dream life was no different from reality, and the experiences in the dream were equivalent to gaining experience for reality.

There was one more critical point: Chen Yuqian had already submitted herself to Chen Longtao. Although Chen Ruyun didn't know what had happened between them yesterday, based on her understanding of herself, Chen Yuqian certainly wouldn't mind experiencing life as a couple with Chen Longtao in the dream, because it was just a dream; she could enjoy everything and indulge in everything as she pleased.

Chen Yuqian's joining didn't cause any discussion in the company. The people in the company didn't even notice that Chen Yuqian and Chen Ruyun had identical faces; they all thought it was perfectly normal. This made Alex sigh—it was truly a dream without any logic.

"Brother Tao, come to the office for a second."

Hearing Chen Yuqian calling him, Alex put down his work and came to the office, but Chen Ruyun was nowhere to be seen. Only Chen Yuqian sat behind the desk, seemingly helping Chen Ruyun handle things.

The professional attire looked a bit naive on her, but it had a unique flavor, making Alex, who had had several intimate encounters with her, feel hot again.

"Brother Tao, come over here."

Chen Yuqian looked up and beckoned to him, the corners of her mouth rippling with a smile, appearing somewhat mischievous.

Alex was stunned; it was the first time he had seen this NPC smile like this, and he suddenly felt she was even more charming. He couldn't help but walk over, stand behind her, and place his hands on her slender shoulders, gently massaging them.

Chen Luoqiu narrowed her eyes comfortably, her back sinking into the chair.

Alex suddenly thought of an interesting point, and with a thought, he activated his Vibration Skill.

Chen Luoqiu's body trembled. A while later, she turned and hugged Alex, whispering, "I have a gift for you."

Alex was stunned.

Chen Luoqiu smiled without saying a word, pushed his hand away, stood up, and took his hand toward the lounge in the office.

Pushing open the lounge door, Chen Ruyun was lying on the sofa, her personal freedom restricted.

Alex looked back at Chen Luoqiu, confused.

"I wanted to be the manager, but this guy wouldn't agree, so I caught her. Now she's yours to play with."

Chen Luoqiu said with a calm expression.

Chen Ruyun, whose speech wasn't restricted, sneered, "In this world, we should have each been doing our own jobs. You've overstepped."

"Yours is mine, and mine is yours." Chen Luoqiu said.

Chen Ruyun watched her quietly, then her gaze fell on Alex, wanting to say something but stopping. Finally, she closed her eyes and accepted her fate.

There was such a good thing? Alex wouldn't be polite. Two Chen Yuqians—it was truly a unique flavor.

Just as he was about to make a move, the scene in front of him suddenly stopped, then shattered like a mirror into countless pieces.

Opening his eyes and waking up, he was back in reality. Alex felt a brief moment of confusion in his brain. After gradually waking up, he sighed with great regret—it was just a little bit more.

Forcing himself to forget this regrettable matter, Alex felt his spirit seemed to have become stronger. He raised a hand and activated his Vibration Skill. Ten seconds later, there was no consumption at all.

He stopped the skill and calculated in his heart: "Entering the dream once increases the skill's endurance by ten seconds. legend of fengyun hualong has about 230 chapters. If each chapter counts as a dream, it can increase the total endurance by 2300 seconds, which is a little over 38 minutes."

"It seems the updates for legend of fengyun hualong cannot stop. It's best to update daily. Serialization can attract readers to keep following. The larger the update volume, the more words, the more people will read it."

Alex decided to spend three months or even less to complete the creation of this novel. Anyway, he didn't need to think about the plot; he just needed to copy it. With his typing speed of five or six thousand words per hour, ten thousand words would only take two hours.

By then, not only could he experience various beauties in his dreams, but he could also increase the endurance of his Vibration Skill to nearly forty minutes. At that time, he wouldn't have to be so fearful when facing mysterious forces.

After resting for a while, Alex received a call from Kiara, reminding him to get up quickly and not to be late.

After washing up and going downstairs, Alex saw Freya and An Suling chatting.

Ever since seeing him that day, An Suling had changed her usual way of lurking and no longer avoided meeting him.

Because of Alex's changes, the possibility of a closer relationship between Freya and him existed, and An Suling's change was precisely to deal with such a risk.

When necessary, she would even come to the door as a neighbor or Freya's friend to act as a third wheel.

At this moment, Freya felt very depressed because of her. Waking up early in the morning, she had been planning to cook a rich breakfast and enjoy a world for two with Alex, but she didn't expect An Suling to appear. She was such an eyesore!

But even if she felt she was an eyesore, Freya couldn't drive her away and could only silently endure the grievance.

"Alex, I didn't make breakfast today. You go eat outside. Do you still have pocket money? Take this."

Freya didn't want Alex to meet An Suling, worrying that she would reveal flaws in front of An Suling. She fished a wad of money from her bag; by visual estimation, it was about ten thousand yuan.

Alex had only one thought in his heart: she really is a rich woman!

To Freya, this amount of money didn't even count as pocket money, so Alex accepted it without hesitation and stuffed it into his schoolbag.

"I'm heading to school, Au... goodbye."

Seeing An Suling staring at him unkindly, Alex swallowed the word "Auntie" and pretended to act naturally as he prepared to leave the house.

"Stop," An Suling said coldly.
