Not a god

Chapter 194 It's Xixi!
That night, Chen Xi actually had a dream. She dreamt that she was sixteen or seventeen years old, and in the dream, they were in high school, and it was during a long break between classes.

It's too real to call it a dream.

Chen Xi seemed to wake up suddenly in his seat. He looked around and saw students playing around in the classroom, the bright sun shining outside the window, people shouting on the playground, students from the next class passing by the door, school uniforms, blackboard bulletins, desks that were never neatly arranged, and the faint, unique 'smell' of the classroom in the air.

Chen Xi's sleeve was tugged by the girl next to her, who said in a soft voice that she needed to go to the toilet and asked Chen Xi to move aside.

"What? I didn't hear you."

"I need to use the restroom..."

"Let me touch your little hands."

Jiang Wanwan, still a high school girl, looked at him with disbelief.

Chen Xi glanced at the students in her class and guessed, "Is this... the second semester of the first year of high school? Oh, I see, I'm back in high school..."

"Brother, what are you talking about?"

"Wanwan, to tell you the truth..."

Chen Xi took a deep breath, her face serious, and said, "Actually, I was reborn from the future, but I didn't expect to be reborn in high school. Wanwan, you don't know, the spiritual energy in the future world has been revived."

"...I need to use the restroom, brother, please move aside."

"Wanwan, I'm serious, now is not the time to go to the bathroom..."

"Now is the time to go to the toilet!"

"In the future, I will become the Underworld Emperor of Fengdu, while you, Wanwan, will be in the early stages of the spiritual energy revival... In this second life, I must..."

"Class is about to start, brother, stop fooling around! I've been holding back since last class..."

"Oh right, we're still together. We even got our marriage certificate when we graduated from university."

"But then again..." Jiang Wanwan crossed her legs, rested her chin on her hands, and suddenly felt that she could endure one more class.

Although she didn't know what her brother was suddenly arguing about, that annoying blockhead brother suddenly brought up a topic that made her jaw drop.

However, at that moment, a 'knock knock knock' sound appeared in the dream, as if someone was knocking on the door. Chen Xi looked left and right, but found that everything in front of her, which was so realistic, was slowly becoming messy and blurry, and the light was also slowly dimming.

Chen Xi looked at Wanwan, a young and slender middle school student in front of her. At this stage, she had already quietly realized her feelings for her brother. Her girlish thoughts were cute and clumsy.

"Brother, please continue! What do you mean by 'together'? We're siblings! How can we do that? How can we do that...?"

Chen Xi chuckled and leaned in to give the girl a light kiss on the cheek. Before the world shattered, what magnified infinitely before his eyes was the blush on the girl's cheeks and her incredulous eyes.

I opened my eyes, and the dream shattered.

It's so late, and someone is still knocking on the door.

He went over and opened the door, where a delicate-looking young girl stood.

"Is it... Xiao Wan?"

Jiang Xiaowan stood at his door, barefoot, her small, white feet seemed to have something on her mind, her left foot twisting and turning on the back of her right foot, her black hair loose, and she was wearing a soft blue nightgown.

Chen Xi asked curiously, "Aren't you asleep yet at this hour?"

Jiang Xiaowan said softly, "I just had a nightmare and found that my brother is missing... I want to sleep with my brother tonight."

"Oh, I see. Come in."

"it is good!"

"Why aren't you wearing shoes...?"

"oops!"

Jiang Xiaowan let out a soft, delicate gasp as her brother lifted her up by her bottom and placed her on the bed. He then went to the bathroom to get a towel to wipe her feet, treating her like a child. The girl felt a sweet warmth in her heart.

Is the air conditioning set too low?

"No, brother, the blankets are so warm!"

"Go to sleep, go to sleep, your brother won't have nightmares here."

"Uh-huh!"

She actually lied to her brother. She didn't have a nightmare. She was a bad kid who lied. But she often told lies like this before. Even if her brother found out, he wouldn't reject her. That's what a super good brother he is!
She stayed up for a long time tonight, waiting until her sister fell asleep before she could sneak over. These days, she needs to talk to her brother for a while before she can fall asleep. She just wanted to come over and talk to her brother, but tonight her brother was occupied by her grandfather.

Just as she was about to speak, she heard steady breathing from the side.

"..." I almost forgot, my super awesome older brother has super awesome sleep!
Never mind, just listen to my brother's breathing, and I'll treat it as if I'm talking to him.

A quick kiss, goodnight, brother! ...

"Is it another dream? This time I'm only seven or eight years old..."

It's so cold. It's 10:30 pm in winter, and it's snowing everywhere. My hometown is at a high altitude, and the temperature has dropped to minus ten degrees Celsius. The visibility is less than five meters due to the wind and snow, and the wind howls like war drums between the mountains.

On his way home, he was carrying a bag of something he didn't recognize. When he picked it up, he realized it was a bag of flatbread.

Oh right, Wanwan caught a cold and is lying in bed. She said she wanted to eat guokui (a type of flatbread), so he went to the county to buy some.

But actually, their home wasn't close to the county. He rode his bicycle for more than two hours to find a place that sold guokui (a type of flatbread) ten kilometers away. When he got home, the little girl on the bed was already asleep.

Actually, Wanwan didn't insist on eating guokui. She just suddenly said she didn't know if there was any guokui available, and that she suddenly wanted some... It's always been like this. Her brother is omnipotent. Whatever she wants, he can easily make it happen. It's also Chen Xi's endless indulgence that makes her make some requests that seem absurd to others. After all, in her eyes, these are things that are incredibly difficult for her, but they are just a matter of waving her hand to her brother.

Wanwan thinks she's the bad sister, but actually Chen Xi is the bad brother.

Once the door is closed, the wind and snow outside are kept out, and there's no one in the living room at this hour.

Upon entering the room, I realized that because I was sick, I couldn't sleep well at night and even broke out in a sweat.

Even though he knew it was just a dream, he still went to get a towel, lifted the blanket, and wiped the girl's sweat.

During the period, she was in a daze, and the little girl woke up once. After seeing her brother, she asked him if he had bought the guokui (a type of flatbread).

"Let's eat tomorrow."

Will things get better tomorrow night?

"A good night's sleep will do the trick."

"really?"

"Really, it will be fine tomorrow."

"The wind is so strong outside, I'm so scared..."

"Brother will stay here with you, go to sleep."

"Ah."

He coaxed her back to sleep, stayed by her side, and ate two guokui (a type of flatbread) in the process.

Moonlight streamed through the window, making the room warm as springtime. He looked up and saw the silent mountains under the cold moonlight and the raging snowstorm.

Just then, a series of thumping sounds came from around her, and Chen Xi felt the world blur once again, her vision turning gray.

Chen Xi opened her eyes, and Jiang Xiaowan in her arms also opened her eyes. There was indeed another knock on the door.

When I opened the door, sure enough, it was another little Jiang. She wasn't wearing shoes either, and she was wearing the same pink pajamas as Jiang Xiaowan. She probably ran over there. Her shoulders were half exposed, and one of her pajama pants was rolled up to her knee. Her hair was also a mess.

Jiang Wanwan stood at the door with a hateful look on her face, pointing at the person on the bed: "Little Wan, you philandering cat, you're under arrest!"

"I, I didn't, I woke up from a nightmare..."

"This excuse?" Jiang Wanwan looked incredulous, pointing to herself, "Used on me?"

Chen Xi sighed helplessly, bent down, hugged her thighs and carried her on his shoulder, and put her on the bed in the same way, then wiped the soles of her feet clean.

"Go to sleep, it's almost four o'clock, it'll be dawn soon... Are you imitating a puppy?"

"I can't smell it at all..."

Even someone as clueless as Jiang Xiaowan couldn't help but feel a little angry: "Everyone said they just came to see their brother because of a nightmare, and that nothing else happened."

Detective Jiang Wanwan, feigning complete understanding of their intelligence, said, "They actually guessed I'd catch them, so they swallowed every last drop..."

"I really have control over you!"

"Instead of running away, are you walking towards me?"

The two of them tangled in a tight embrace on his bed. Chen Xi lay down leisurely on the outermost edge of the bed, covered herself with the blanket, closed her eyes peacefully, adjusted her breathing to prepare for sleep, feeling serene and indifferent to the world around her.

……

The smell of disinfectant in the hospital stung his nostrils. The corridors were filled with dejected patients and their families. Occasionally, a large group of doctors would pass by, their voices approaching and then fading away. The sun was setting, the shadows were rising, and the setting sun shone on the beds and floors, its reflections dazzling and blinding.

Chen Xi stood at the door. Sitting on the hospital bed was a woman. She was backlit, so he couldn't see her face clearly, but her voice pulled him into memories, or perhaps brought him back to reality.

"Xixi came to see her mother?"

He seemed to have a very long dream, a dream where he couldn't quite distinguish between reality and dreams. That dream was really long, like a lifetime.
