A Dream of South Cocoon

Shen Yi sat by the bed for a long time, unable to regain his composure.

Intense emotions surged through him, making his chest heave and tears flow.

Although protected by the system, the vast memories had been blurred to prevent overwhelming him, yet such an immersive real experience still left Shen Yi unsettled.

That long and wonderful life, the deeply loving couple, experienced no dramatic separations, only peaceful love and family bonds.

No wonder the achievement was called "Growing Old Together."

Shen Yi took a deep breath to shake off his melancholy and turned his attention to check his attributes.

Name: Shen Yi

Level: lv.2

Strength: 8

Stamina: 7

Energy: 9

Charm: 74

Assets: 219533.5

Strategy Points: 2

Attribute Points: 2

The benefit of gaining 1 point in strength was already evident, making Shen Yi value the precious free attribute points even more.

Shen Yi's previous physical condition was barely better than that of a fragile college student.

After more than two years of sitting around without exercise, plus irregular eating habits, he had developed a small layer of fat around his belly.

Now with 1 point added to strength, his overall condition had improved significantly.

Getting up to wash, he returned to find it was already 10:30.

"Well, late again."

Time passed imperceptibly in the simulation - it had been only 8 o'clock earlier, and now two and a half hours had gone by.

Being late didn't matter anymore since Fu Nanzhi had been successfully won over, so work became optional.

Shen Yi still planned to go one last time - first to handle his resignation properly, and second to bid farewell to his colleagues, parting on good terms.

Looking at himself in the mirror, Shen Yi smiled.

The 4 points in charm had an immediate effect - just brushing his hair up changed his entire aura completely.

Dressed neatly, he left home and took a taxi to the company.

Pushing open the door to the advertising department, several people whispered as he entered.

Shen Yi ignored them and sat at his workstation, feeling somewhat dazed.

In the simulation, he had spent most of his time in the legal department, so sitting here now felt like revisiting an old haunt.

Su Xun came over at this moment, winking as he said:

"Impressive, brother, getting all handsome for a blind date, huh?"

Shen Yi looked at Su Xun with fondness and joked back,

"Yeah, going on a date with your beloved Lin Ruoyu~"

Su Xun extended a playful finger in mock seriousness,

"Hey, we're brothers but hands off my woman, got it~"

While packing up his things at his desk, Shen Yi chatted casually with him,

"So how's your progress with her?"

At this, Su Xun excitedly said: "Almost there, we're at the stage of knowing each other's names."

Shen Yi's mouth twitched hearing this - everyone in the department knew Lin Ruoyu's name.

Then Su Xun sighed deeply:

"If I could marry Lin Ruoyu in this life, I wouldn't mind driving luxury cars and living in villas."

This left Shen Yi completely speechless,

"Damn, you want it all, don't you?"

Suddenly Shen Yi froze - wasn't this exactly like himself in the simulation? He had nearly criticized his own behavior.

He had packed about half his things when Dai Tiefeng's office door opened and he called out.

Shen Yi wasn't surprised - with his lateness today, it would be strange if his boss didn't want to have a talk.

Su Xun gave him a wink, as if wishing him good luck.

Shen Yi returned a reassuring look and stood up to walk over.

Closing the door, Shen Yi sat down.

Dai Tiefeng looked at him with furrowed brows and asked,

"What emergency was it today?"

This was giving him a chance to explain - a gentle start.

Shen Yi was grateful for his consideration and shook his head saying,

"No emergency, I just want to resign."

Dai Tiefeng was stunned, nearly dropping his cigarette, and hurriedly caught it asking:

"What happened? Why the sudden resignation?"

Before Shen Yi could answer, he quickly added: "Is it because of Liu Changjiang? Don't worry, I won't keep troublemakers like him around."

"With my methods, even if he refuses to leave, I have nine ways to deal with him, nine!"

Shen Yi smiled and waved his hand - though only a day had passed, hearing that name felt like a century ago.

Someone like Liu Changjiang couldn't leave any lasting impact on his mind.

"It's not because of him, it's my personal decision to strike out on my own."

As he spoke, Shen Yi moved the ashtray from the right to place it in front of Dai Tiefeng and continued:

"Brother Dai, for over two years, you've treated me well."

"I'm grateful for your kindness, and if you ever need anything in the future, just let me know."

Dai Tiefeng took a deep drag of his cigarette and flicked the ash, nodding:

"Alright, brother wishes you great success, I'll sign your resignation papers."

Once Shen Yi put it this way, Dai Tiefeng knew he couldn't keep him, and though regretful, could only offer his blessings.

The news of his resignation spread quickly, and soon everyone in Team Three knew.

People came up to inquire - some curious, some consoling, some regretful, some envious.

Shen Yi patiently responded to everyone, not becoming arrogant just because he was leaving.

Finding a moment, Shen Yi went to greet Zhuo Huijun, also offering her some encouragement.

The young girl was fine in every way, just lacking confidence.

Zhuo Huijun nodded blankly, stealing glances at him.

Among the crowd, Shen Yi radiated vitality, his expression animated, his manner proper, carrying a natural air of authority - the whole person seemed to glow.

After submitting his resignation report, it was quickly approved with signatures from the team leader and supervisor.

Technically, the report should have been submitted a month in advance, but things weren't actually that complicated in practice.

Such formalities only matter when the company doesn't want to let you go or when there are handover issues.

Shen Yi was just a tiny cog in the machine, with plenty of college graduates waiting to replace him, so he didn't warrant such treatment.

With all procedures completed and goodbyes said to colleagues, Shen Yi entered the elevator carrying his box.

His finger hovered over the 11th floor button before finally pressing 1 instead.

Though he wanted to visit the legal department, he had neither reason nor status to do so - seeing it would only bring unnecessary distress.

The simulation was just a simulation after all, and needed to be separated from reality, Shen Yi reminded himself.

Leaving the company entrance, Shen Yi took one last look at the Tiancheng Group sign before taking a taxi home.

...

At Songping Garden, Peaceful Lake Residence.

Fu Nanzhi woke from her sleep with a slightly heavy head, as if she had slept for a very long time.

Sitting up in bed, Fu Nanzhi held her forehead, her temples throbbing as if she had just had a very long dream.

She sat dazed for several minutes before finally clearing her thoughts.

"Was that a dream? Or did I travel back in time?"

Thanks to the internet, she had watched many TV dramas and understood the concept of time travel.

The dream was incredibly real, depicting her entire life.

Although most memories were somewhat blurry, she could recall the general outline of past experiences.

The logic was complete, the details vivid, too real to be just a dream.

"Husband? Shen Yi?"

Suddenly Fu Nanzhi remembered the man who had accompanied her throughout her life.

At the thought of him, tears began flowing uncontrollably.

At this moment, she desperately hoped she had truly traveled back in time.

Because only then would she still have a chance to find him.
