Yu Xiu De walked step by step to Fang Xue Mu.
With every step forward, he smelled more of alcohol and his face became abnormally redder. He looked not like Yu Xiu De, but another person... a person that Fang Xue Mu hated and despised!
At the same time, he is also the person who has the greatest influence on Fang Xuemu.
"Fang Xuemu."
The man who should have died said the name he had never spoken before, and sarcastically said:
"You think your mother is cowardly and stupid, but don't you think you are exactly the same as she was in the past?"
Real Dreamland: Chapter 24 You Are Sick Too
'Does cooking take that long?'
After waiting in the study for thirty minutes, Fang Xuehan, who was a little hungry, couldn't help but put down the book in her hand and wanted to go to the kitchen to find out what was going on.
But as soon as she stepped into the living room from the study, the aroma wafting from the kitchen soothed her doubts. Yu Xiu De, who brought out steaming dishes from the kitchen, nodded at her and said concisely:
"Go to the kitchen and get some food."
"Ok."
Looking at Yu Xiu De, whose facial expression remained calm, Fang Xuehan breathed a sigh of relief.
Although Fang Xuehan was unable to capture any emotions from Yu Xiude's expressionless face most of the time, if Fang Xuemu made Yu Xiude angry, a subtle displeasure would still appear on that indifferent face.
Her brother was not without feelings, he was just too indifferent.
But when Fang Xuehan walked into the kitchen, she found that her sisters, who were called to the kitchen by Yu Xiu De to help Fang Xuemu, seemed to be in a somewhat abnormal mental state.
She was seen standing blankly in front of the sink, her hands leaning on the edge of the sink. Her scarlet eyes, which should have been filled with cunning, revealed a rare pain and confusion, and her body was trembling slightly.
This made Fang Xuehan's heart, which had originally relaxed, tighten again.
While Yu Xiude was still outside clearing the table, Fang Xuehan poked Fang Xuemu and asked quietly, "Did he beat you?"
"..."
There was no answer, but Fang Xuehan's voice seemed to wake up Fang Xuemu, who was still immersed in the dream of the past. Fang Xuemu stopped daydreaming, but did not look at Fang Xuehan. Instead, he picked up the remaining dish in the kitchen and walked out of the kitchen.
Fang Xuemu turned around and was about to call Fang Xuemu to find out the reason, but the words were on the tip of her tongue but she couldn't say them, as if someone was strangling her throat.
Yu Xiu De appeared behind her at some point, looking at her quietly.
"Remember to help me compact the rice."
Looking at Fang Xuehan who was clumsy and hadn't even served the rice yet, Yu Xiu De patiently reminded her.
"Sorry... I'm sorry!" Hearing this, Fang Xuehan woke up as if from a dream, and quickly turned on the rice cooker, forcing him to focus all his attention on the white rice in the rice cooker, and quickly served the rice.
Yu Xiu De looked at Fang Xue Han deeply, and in a calm tone, tried to change the wrong image of himself in the two people's minds.
"I didn't hit her."
"Yes! Brother!"
Sir! Yes sir!
Fang Xuehan, who had her back to Yu Xiu De, shuddered. She always spoke softly, but in front of her brother whom she hadn't seen for two years, she responded instinctively, quickly and firmly, in the tone of a soldier responding to his superior.
Even the speed of serving rice has increased a bit.
"..."
Will the owner of this fate also have military training?
Yu Xiu De, who knew but didn't care why Fang Xuehan felt guilty, started to think divergently and pay attention to strange questions.
……
……
The fragrance began to spread. Yu Xiu De sat at the head of the table, picked up his chopsticks, and in a gentle and casual tone, reminded his reserved sisters to start eating.
"Try it. I still have some confidence in my cooking skills."
After all, making and tasting delicious food in a dream is an activity that can both entertain you and improve yourself.
There are not many opportunities for Fang Xuemu and Fang Xuehan to enjoy delicious food at the same time, or even almost none. Except for Yu Xiude's dream, only one of Fang Xuemu and Fang Xuehan can control the body at the same time, experiencing the beauty of the taste blooming on the tip of the tongue and the satisfaction of a full belly.
Yu Xiu De estimated that this ability was one of the reasons why these two sisters who had no blood relationship with him cared so much about him that the officials regarded him as their "anchor".
After the education of [Nightmare], the two personalities of [Two-Faced Man] have achieved coordination and balance, but this does not mean that their instinctive desires can be delayed. One person's body is still too crowded for two souls.
Fang Xuehan only started to eat after seeing Yu Xiu De start to eat. However, Fang Xuemu, who used to be the least polite when eating and liked to eat with a wild attitude as if he had been hungry for many days, was not very active. He just picked up a few leaves and put them in the bowl to eat, staring at the ceiling, as if thinking about some difficult problem in life.
Seeing this, Fang Xuehan became a little nervous again and worried about her sister, because in Fang Xuehan's memory, there was an example when Fang Xuemu did not observe table etiquette when she was a child, and was punished by Yu Xiu De.
Taking advantage of the fact that Yu Xiu De was eating slowly with his head down and not looking at Fang Xue Mu, Fang Xue Han thought for a while and decided to attract Yu Xiu De's attention as much as possible.
She gently kicked Fang Xuemu with her foot, reminding her not to continue eating, and took the initiative to chat with Yu Xiu De about some topics to prevent the atmosphere at the dinner table from being too depressing.
Most of these topics are about what happened two years after Yu Xiude left home.
"Although Dad's career is still thriving, he's almost reaching retirement age, and he'll have a lot more free time at home..."
dad.
For Fang Xuehan, her stepfather, the man who loved her mother, had a gentle temper, and helped her mother raise her and Fang Xuemu, was her father.
Having said that, Fang Xuehan paused and her tone became cautious.
"Logically speaking, Dad should train a successor, but..."
"not my business."
Yu Xiu De interrupted calmly. Even though he knew that his agent had not lost his "golden finger" and had kept and even developed his career to the next step, he did not feel much fluctuation in his heart.
For Nightmare, who can travel through the universe in dreams, visualize the beginning and end of all things, and experience all aspects of the human world, the wealth and property that he once represented are nothing but external possessions.
Yu Xiude could understand the hidden meaning behind Fang Xuehan's words, but he didn't want to go back. After all, he was just an outsider.
Although Fang Xuehan had expected Yu Xiu De's rejection, she had not expected Yu Xiu De's words to be so straightforward and leave no room for maneuver. This made her a little at a loss, and a hint of grievance appeared in her pure white eyes.
Fang Xuehan, who has always been praised for her good interpersonal skills and chat skills, suddenly felt that she didn't know how to chat with others.
"We can talk about the next topic."
Perhaps noticing Fang Xuehan's embarrassment, the considerate Yu Xiude wiped his mouth, put down his chopsticks, and looked at Fang Xuehan quietly with his deep black eyes, as if he was listening attentively.
Although Fang Xuehan was not as naughty as Fang Xuemu when she was a child and did not need Yu Xiude's constant watch over her, and now she seems to get along well with Fang Xuemu, this does not mean that this well-behaved sister does not have her own problems.
Real Dreamland: Chapter 25: Good test scores are rewarded! Bad test scores are punished!
The awkward silence lasted only a moment.
Yu Xiu De, who found that his words had no effect, began to actively share his life.
This was something Yu Xiu De had never done in the past. In the past, at the dinner table at home, he would just silently and quietly eat the food made by Fang Mei Fen, listen to the agent's poor sharing, and observe the conditions of Fang Xue Mu and Fang Xue Han. At that time, he did not sit in the main seat.
Ever since his agent had a real home, Yu Xiu De had tried his best to restrain his obviously problematic behaviors so that his adoptive father wouldn't have to be embarrassed in front of his stepmother... Of course, there was no need for his stepmother to be too humble in front of him either.
Like Fang Xuemu, Yu Xiude looks down on the cowardly Fang Meifen; but unlike Fang Xuemu, Fang Meifen is just a stranger to Yu Xiude.
Even worse - it is a waste of the high-quality fertilizers that Yu Xiude carefully cultivated.
The agent he supports should have a better future! A better family!
Yu Xiu De was able to treat Fang Mei Fen with a normal heart, like a polite but distant stepson, without revealing his true status in the family or showing off his abilities. This was already a great respect given to the agent, considering that the two of them were in love with each other and Fang Mei Fen was just stupid and not bad.
……
……
The topics that Yu Xiu De shared were nothing noteworthy. The daily gossip between colleagues that interested him was obviously not suitable to be shared with two underage people, and the intrigues between colleagues that he was not interested in would hardly leave much trace in his frequently dreaming mind.
It's not just because Yu Xiu De is valued by the editor-in-chief. Sometimes being valued by your superiors in the workplace does not mean there will be no trouble. People often think highly of themselves, and the idea of replacing others is not uncommon.
However, for Yu Xiu De, who could sneak into other people's dreams at will, the human relationships and intrigues among colleagues seemed a bit... too contemptible.
Apart from this, there are too few topics to share in the daily life of office workers who go to and from work. Yu Xiu De can only use topics such as his work unit, daily working hours, and holidays to ease the atmosphere at the dinner table. He tries to arouse Fang Xuehan's desire to talk while calming Fang Xuemu's unstable emotions.
Yu Xiu De also noticed Fang Xuemu's absent-mindedness, but he didn't care, because maturity and confusion are often conjoined twins.
Yu Xiu De continued to slowly describe his situation in the two years since he left home.
A good work and rest schedule, a stable job, respect from superiors, harmonious neighbors... everything sounds so bland and boring.
But Fang Xuehan put aside her nervousness and listened to Yu Xiude's sharing with great interest.
At the same time, Fang Xuemu was still eating rice, oblivious to what was happening outside, as if in a daze, and continued to fall into self-doubt - had she really become the person she looked down upon the most in the past?
"This is my life right now, and I'm very happy with it."
Yu Xiude asked casually:
"But it seems that during the two years I was away, you guys weren't satisfied with your lives. But that's normal. It's a good thing for young people to be energetic and have dreams."
Yu Xiu De, who was only 20 years old according to his ID card, said this with his youthful and handsome face, but with a strange persuasiveness. Perhaps it was because his pure but lifeless eyes were too gloomy.
"But I'm still curious, why do you two want to become superheroes?"
"During my absence, you didn't study hard and did poorly on the test. Do you need to rely on your superhero status to get extra points?"
In the past, Yu Xiu De was mainly responsible for Fang Xuemu and Fang Xuehan’s studies.
After all, although their mother had received a relatively good education, the factory assembly line and the abuse from their biological father had dulled the knowledge of this university-educated woman... Even if it hadn't been dulled, Yu Xiu De doubted the intelligence of this woman who could be cheated by a gambler with just a few words.
Fang Meifen might be able to teach the well-behaved Fang Xuehan when she was a child, but she has no way to deal with Fang Xuemu who doesn't like to study; and Yu Xiude's agent is still busy with work. This dull man has not become so proud of having a real home that he forgets the deal with Yu Xiude.
Although education is compulsory in the Federation, the two personalities of the young "Two-Faced Man" were not yet coordinated as they are now. The specific manifestation was like the 24 hours that Fang Xuemu and Fang Xuehan shared the body for while an ordinary person has 24 hours a day - minus the time the body slept and the time the two quarreled.
Therefore, Yu Xiu De had no choice but to take on the responsibility of educating Fang Xuemu and Fang Xuehan. He gave them extra lessons every night and ordered them to develop in an all-round way even in school - Fang Xuemu had to take the written exams and Fang Xuehan had to take the physical tests as well.
There are rewards for good test scores and punishments for bad test scores!
Even though Yu Xiu De was an orphan and a bachelor in his previous life, and had no feelings for his two unrelated step-sisters in this life, he still had an instinct in his bones due to the baptism of exam-oriented education in his previous life that made him involuntarily pay attention to the education of Fang Xuemu and Fang Xuehan.
Morality, intelligence, physical fitness, aesthetics and labor must be developed comprehensively!
……
……
Noticing that Yu Xiude's tone was slightly lower, Fang Xuehan quickly shook her head.
She knew her brother. Although he would frown a little and even punish both of them because of their poor grades, the severity of the punishment was only to cancel Fang Xuemu's computer time until she improved her ranking in the next written test, confiscate her extracurricular books until she passed the next physical test, and reduce the free time of the two.
In fact, ever since Yu Xiu De left, Fang Xue Mu has been completely on the lookout - in the previous physical time allocation table, the study column was almost always filled with Fang Xue Han's name.
The college entrance examination does not require physical examinations, so even though Fang Xuemu disdains the federal education system and adheres to the "fair" concept of "study time is for Fang Xuehan, game time is for Fang Xuemu", Fang Xuehan still achieved good results on her own.
However, for some special universities, excellent results in the college entrance examination are only one of the conditions.
"...Actually, Mu and I mainly want to apply to Qianpeng City's special university [Qianpeng Fate University]. It's a school that only those with excellent fates are eligible to enter. There are only eighteen cities in the entire federation that have such a school, and Xiaohai City is not one of them."
Fang Xuehan gritted her teeth. There was a fierce struggle going on in her heart, but she finally decided to speak out what was in her mind.
"Mu and I came here this time mainly to ask, brother, do you mind having two more roommates?"
Real Dreamland: Chapter 26 You Are All Sick
After confessing her plan, Fang Xuehan finally breathed a sigh of relief and felt a little lighter both physically and mentally.
As Yu Xiu De's nominal sister, even though she had never been punished by Yu Xiu De like Fang Xue Mu, Fang Xue Han had witnessed how her rebellious sister was repeatedly framed by Yu Xiu De.
The fate of [Nightmare] does not involve domination and omniscience. It does not have the ability to directly control others, nor can it spy on information across time and space. So how does Yu Xiu De ensure that when he is not present, for example, when Fang Xuemu and Fang Xuehan are at school, their standards will be followed?
Of course, it is through a lot of "hypothetical dreams".
When Fang Xuemu had not yet surrendered, almost every day, when the young "Two-Faced Person" opened her pure white or scarlet eyes from the bed, her first thought was whether she was in a "nightmare" dream or in reality.
When Yu Xiu De was consciously on guard against someone, it was almost impossible for that person to plot against Yu Xiu De, because all the actions and conspiracies that person took, even the results after the plot succeeded, were just a pipe dream.
So in fact, facing her brother who has always been emotionally stable and has never punished her, Fang Xuehan is under great psychological pressure.
The plan she had originally planned to make use of the time when school was about to start and see if she could strike while the iron was hot and live in her brother's house as a day student to repair the relationship between her and her brother was shattered without a second thought in front of those calm eyes that seemed to see through everything.
Fang Xuehan lowered her head guiltily, picked up the bowl, and pretended to eat hard, not daring to look at Yu Xiude's expression.
"I'm sure it will be rejected... No, I should say it will definitely be rejected."
