To Be the Subject of Dreams, One Must Have Substance in the Mind

After chatting for a while longer in the senior's room,

Lin Yu returned to his own room, which was already past 10 PM.

Thinking about how he had to wake up early for a run tomorrow and that there were still two dream entries to experience tonight,

Lin Yu washed up and lay down in bed, preparing to rest.

The run was scheduled for 5:30 AM,

still a long way off from the daily 7 AM settlement.

For now, Lin Yu set aside the matter of the prize draw

and focused on selecting tonight's dream targets.

The previous night's dreams—Shen Jiuyi and the cat—had given Lin Yu a lot more experience in dream infiltration.

Especially the cat's dream!

It made Lin Yu acutely aware that if the other person's mind couldn't even imagine what would happen next,

the dream world would also stall or even collapse.

Though it might seem like a chaotic, lawless realm,

amidst the disorder, there were still unique rules governing its operation.

Trying to develop some steamy scenarios

with a naive girl who had no material in her head was clearly a dead end.

At best, it would only reach the level of teasing, with no way to go further.

So,

tonight,

Lin Yu's goal was crystal clear:

someone with a wealth of material in their head—his fellow enthusiast!

Additionally,

after successfully infiltrating Shen Jiuyi's dream,

Lin Yu had another bold idea he wanted to test tonight...

[Ding!]

[Shared Dream Technique activated!]

[Host will appear tonight in the dream of &%#@ (Huang Feirong). Based on the current state, please select an appropriate dream type!]

Lin Yu: "!!!"

It actually worked?!

Even though he hadn't fully grasped the personal details of this dirty-joke queen, the Shared Dream Technique still took effect!

This was seriously overpowered!

Compared to the plundering skill of the Hehuan Nine Tripod Technique (note: original term retained as no glossary entry was provided),

the Shared Dream Technique was practically the perfect complementary skill.

As for what kind of dream could be created with the dirty-joke queen, Lin Yu was intensely curious.

After all,

when it came to people around him who had plenty of material in their heads but no real-life experience,

the dirty-joke queen was undoubtedly at the top of the list!

Lin Yu quickly scanned the four dream options for Huang Feirong:

[1. Online gaming showdown—showcasing the glory of peak performance to fellow gamers!]

[2. Online gaming showdown—sniping an old rival at the internet café to earn their admiration!]

[3. Online gaming showdown—an exhilarating all-night trio session!]

[4. Online gaming showdown—playing every game flawlessly on your dream setup!]

[5. None of the above? Random dream!]

After reading them, Lin Yu: "..."

Hiss!

He felt like he'd read them, yet somehow hadn't absorbed anything.

The only takeaway was...

The dirty-joke queen really, really loved gaming!

A fake gaming addict: glued to her computer all day, but actually practicing hacking skills.

A true gaming addict: barely gets to play, yet her dreams are filled with games!

This kind of performance

made Lin Yu afraid to choose the random option!

Chances were, even a random dream would just be another [Online gaming showdown...].

Might as well pick the most reasonable option from the known categories!

Who knows—

maybe the provided information could help nudge their relationship forward a little.

After struggling with the choice for a long time,

Lin Yu finally settled on [Dream Option 2].

Immediately after,

he moved on to selecting the second dream target.

[Ding!]

[Host will appear tonight in the dream of the Medicine Hall elder, martial arts inheritor (Xia Yiwei). Based on the current state, please select an appropriate dream type!]

That's right.

The second dream target was the girl who made his fists clench every time she spoke—

Nurse Xia Yiwei!

Over the past couple of days,

due to Xia Yiwei's injury, Lin Yu had hardly seen her.

Recalling their previous encounters,

each one had been like a clash of titans.

Especially Nurse Xia's trash talk—second only to the dirty-joke queen.

[1. Late-night street racing—the perfect moment to showcase your driving skills!]

[2. Night shift at an empty community hospital—keeping each other company!]

[3. Return to the martial arts hall—"My master can take on a hundred at once!" ]

[4. A picnic with the sisters—being the perfect barbecue chef!]

[5. None of the above? Random dream!]

Compared to the dirty-joke queen's gaming-centric dreams,

Nurse Xia's nocturnal fantasies were far more varied.

Lin Yu's selection process wasn't nearly as difficult this time.

Late-night street racing was too dangerous, and taking on a hundred opponents was too intense.

The fourth option even made Lin Yu chuckle.

Right after beating up her sister in the third option,

she wanted Lin Yu to take them both on a picnic?

What a twisted sisterly bond!

And the worst part...

Making Lin Yu grill skewers for them?

How about they dream a little bigger!

In real life, for the sake of completing a mission, Lin Yu might have obliged.

But in a dream? Letting himself be ordered around?

No way!

This kind of thinking needed to be corrected—

preferably in the empty halls of a late-night hospital!

With both dream targets and their dream types selected,

Lin Yu peacefully drifted off to sleep, waiting for the moment to arrive.

He wasn't sure how long he slept or what time it was.

All he could vaguely sense was that

tonight's dream seemed to arrive later than usual.

A blinding white light flashed,

followed by the clamor of voices and the clatter of keyboards rapidly filling the dream world.

Lin Yu was a regular at internet cafés, so the environment was all too familiar.

But this particular café...

was way too shabby!

Had Huang Feirong never been to a proper internet café before?

Since 2010,

Lin Yu had hardly ever seen such a rundown little place.

That's right—

aside from the worn-out chairs, tables, and equipment, the café was also tiny.

Four rows at most, with no more than forty machines crammed into the limited space.

Huang Feirong came from a well-off family!

With her mother, "Red Sister," being so wealthy, she surely wouldn't skimp on her daughter.

So why was her dream so... unimpressive?

To think she only dared to game in a place like this.

It showed just how strictly Red Sister controlled her daughter.

The small size did have one advantage, though—

it made finding people easier.

Lin Yu stood in the aisle near the entrance, scanning row by row.

Lin Yu: "???"

Where was she?

Huang Feirong's permed black hair should have been easy to spot.

There were quite a few girls in the café,

but not a single one matched her hairstyle.

Wait...

What if this wasn't a 2014-era internet café...?

"Yu-ge!"

"Over here—I saved a seat for you!"

A warm, affectionate voice called out from the far end of the fourth row.
