My Exclusive Dream World Adventures

Chapter 6: Stay

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

Chen Xu casually made some noodles. After filling his stomach, he went back into the office, picked up a stool, and sat beside the bed while looking at the unconscious woman.

He could tell that she wasn’t having the best time. She didn’t have her makeup on, her hair looked rather scraggly due to neglection, and her skin had tanned. What’s more, she was simply wearing a white, long-sleeved T-shirt and a pair of light-colored jeans.

Compared to her glamorous and dazzling appearance at office previously, her style was that of a completely different person.

However, even with no makeup, her beauty didn’t falter. She was without a doubt worthy of being called a natural beauty.

Perhaps due to pain from the wound on her forehead, her brows were slightly wrinkled even while unconscious. Even her lips, which were slightly pale, were delicate and stunning.

Luo Xiyun completely matched his ideal of beauty. Her features were delicate, her skin was fair, her figure wasn’t too plump or petite, but just perfectly right. She was his type.

Moreover, she was his superior and from an uncommonly good family. She was a certified Paris Hilton, the kind of girl that was previously out of his reach.

Without a doubt, such a lady was the perfect person to share this dream world with.

However, based on his experience over the past month, although the woman before his eyes was virtual, she would be exactly the same as the Luo Xiyun from the real world in both appearance or character.

“Ugh, this is different from what I’d imagined.”

This was the nth time that Chen Xu let out such a sigh. He had originally thought that he would be able to do whatever he pleased in this dream world.

In the end, he had to face a fake Luo Xiyun, who was a complete rip off from the one in reality.

Him, dating her?

This had not been worth the wait at all.

From the rumors he had heard, this gorgeous Director Luo wasn’t an easy person to get along with.

“Oh well, at least my eyes can relish looking at a true beauty while in this empty world,” he comforted himself.

…

After a long time, Luo Xiyun’s eyelashes twitched and her eyes opened. Her pupils wouldn’t focus, so she gazed confusedly at the poster of a female celebrity on the ceiling.

Where am I?

“Ow!”

As she was about to turn her head, the pain from her forehead made her gasp. She finally remembered that she had accidentally run into a car on the roadside, hit her head on the steering wheel, and then lost consciousness…

But, how did I get here?

She subconsciously reached out to the position of her wound and felt a layer of gauze.

She was shocked as if she’d been electrocuted. Someone had bandaged her.

After a few seconds, she sat up with a struggle and put aside the quilt that covered her body. She saw a clean floor, apparently cleaned frequently by someone evidenced by the lack of dust.

When was the last time she had seen such a clean floor?

Even she couldn’t remember.

She lifted her head and took in her surroundings. It was a very ordinary room, a little messy, and there was a pile of clothes on the table at the end of the bed.

The owner of this room was clearly a man.

Vaguely, she heard a sound coming from outside the door. She couldn’t help but stand up.

Over the past month, the whole world had been deathly still. The only thing that could be heard was the occasional breeze. In the past, she had preferred quietness when she was going to sleep. Even the slightest noise would irritate her.

Now, she was most afraid of the silence. She had to listen to music to fall asleep.

She stood up, grabbed the door handle, pulled it open, and heard the sound more clearly. It was the noise of something like a diesel generator.

She noticed that the lights in the hallway were lit.

It was a generator.

At that moment, she heard another voice. She walked in the direction of the sound. She went past the corridor, descended the stairs one step at a time, and pushed open a door. She looked at the figure chopping some things on a cutting board and burst into tears.

Having spent a month in this silent world, Chen Xu was very sensitive to noise. He heard the slight movement behind his back and rapidly turned around. Upon seeing Luo Xiyun standing at the door, his distressed mind finally felt at ease.

If she could awaken, it would prove that she was fine overall.

He said, “You’ve woken up. Food will be ready soon. Please have a seat.”

After that, he slid the chopped pork into the pan. In the hot oil, the meat made a sizzling sound.

Luo Xiyun turned around to wipe away her tears, walked into the kitchen, and sat down by the table. She looked at Chen Xu’s back and had something in her mind.

This kitchen was very big. Since Chen Xu alone didn’t need to use that many types of equipment, he tinkered with the space. There was only one stove left, and the emptied space was used as storage.

The dining table was not far to the side. It had been only him before, but now, there was an extra chair and cutlery by the table.

Soon, the food was out of the pan.

Chen Xu brought the dishes over. There was a total of three entrées and one soup: tomato scrambled eggs, light fried pork belly, garlic fried beef, and ginseng stewed black chicken.

“Dig in.”

Chen Xu took a seat opposite to her, greeted her, picked up the bowl, and began eating.

Luo Xiyun quietly picked up her bowl and chopsticks, grabbed a piece of tomato, and stuffed it into her mouth.

Neither of them said anything, eating in silence.

Chen Xu had not talked to anyone in a month. He thought that after meeting Luo Xiyun, they would have endless things to say. But after actually meeting her, he didn’t know what to say.

Luo Xiyun felt a little standoffish and didn’t want to talk.

Just when Chen Xu thought that the meal would end in silence, Luo Xiyun finally spoke, “Are you Chen Xu from the marketing department?”

“Yeah.” Chen Xu wasn’t surprised. She was the director of the human resource department, and she knew every employee in the company.

After a short pause, Luo Xiyun asked, “Have you been staying here this whole month?”

“Yeah,” Chen Xu responded. After some thought, he added, “The resources here are more complete. I can continue to live off them even if I’m the only person left.”

Live alone?

Luo Xiyun fell into silence once again.

“How about you, how did you live for the past month?”

Chen Xu too raised the question that had constantly been on his mind. In the past month, he had moved around every day. At night, he would shine a high-powered light at the skies. She would have seen it if she was in the city. However, she never appeared.

Lu Xiyun’s hand, which was holding her chopsticks, froze for a moment.

No matter how slow Chen Xu was, he could tell that something was a little off with her. While he was thinking about how to change the topic, she said, “I went to see my granny. She lives in C city…”

City C belonged to the jurisdiction of this city. It was some tens of kilometers away from the city center, not too far away. But under such circumstances, it would not be easy for her to travel there alone.

Chen Xu didn’t know what to say, knowing she definitely wouldn’t have found her grandmother. However, he understood very clearly that this was just a dream; it wasn’t truly happening in the real world. Naturally, he couldn’t feel the same as she did or think of any comforting words.

“C City is the same as here. Everyone is gone. At first, I…”

She paused for a while, and continued, “Later on, I heard a radio broadcast while I was driving. So, I came to the address.”

Chen Xu finally understood that it was his radio broadcasts that worked best.

“You… have you met other people?” When Luo Xiyun asked this question, she sounded like she was hoping for something.

Chen Xu shook his head, “You’re the first person that I’ve met throughout the month.”

Luo Xiyun was clearly a little disappointed. She muttered, “What’s going on with this world? Why has everyone suddenly disappeared?”

“Don’t think too much about it. As long as you’re alive, there will always be a way to get to the truth in the future.” Chen Xu could only comfort her this way, saying, “Eat, the dishes are getting cold.”
