Chapter 102: Prolonging Life

Chen Muyun glanced at the inner page of the mall, thought about his current situation, and then looked at the tokens above. It was okay. Fortunately, there were still enough tokens. He made up his mind and bought another one, just in case it was taken off the shelves when he wanted to buy it in three months.

The system flew through the air. "Host, when did you become so rich? Don't forget me. If you ever escape this world, you must take me with you. I haven't seen the outside world in ages."

Chen Muyun looked at the system's sincerity and thought about his uncertain future. "This presupposes that I can leave this world alive. Besides, the person from your Spacetime Administration will probably obstruct me."

"Hmm? This is just a game, how could that be? Host, if you clear it, there will definitely be a better place to go. Don't lose heart."

Shen Muyun just smiled and didn't say much.

The night outside has become darker, but the time difference has not yet completely reversed. I feel top-heavy. I have to say that my body seems to be a lot weaker than when I first arrived.

He lay in bed, thinking about what had happened recently. It was like a dream. He came here on a whim. He originally wanted to conquer Lu Huainan quickly, and all this would probably be over. Now he has conquered Lu Huainan, and now there is another person who can inherit the family property.

"Why are you so upset?"

Shen Muyun hugged the pillow and threw it towards the door with force, and it hit the door with a "bang".

Lu Huainan happened to walk to the door with the mistake, and swiped his card to enter the house.

"Brother Yun, you didn't fall down!"

Shen Muyun was about to pick up the second pillow to vent his anger, but when he saw Lu Huainan in a hurry, he smiled awkwardly, "Well, I'm fine."

Lu Huainan put the things in his hand aside, sat on the edge of the bed, looked at Shen Muyun, reached out and touched his cheek, which was somewhat warm.

"Brother Yun, why do you have a fever again?"

Chen Muyun shook his head. "I felt groggy when I first woke up. Maybe I haven't had enough rest recently, so this happened. It's okay. I'll just adjust myself."

"Want something to eat? The hotel doesn't sell anything, so I took a taxi. There is a convenience store, so I bought something. Take a look. If you don't want to eat it, I'll think of something else."

Shen Muyun grabbed the corner of Lu Huainan’s clothes and buried it in his lower abdomen.

"Huainan, I don't have much of an appetite right now. I just want you to accompany me. I feel a little tired, inexplicably tired."

Lu Huainan gently stroked his hair, the soft touch was very comfortable.

"Brother Yun, there's no need to be so nervous. I'm by your side now, so you might as well stop and take a good rest."

Shen Muyun nestled in his arms, absorbing the warmth.

"But time is running out. Shen Wenjin can't hold on for much longer. I still have no clue about what's going on here. They're all from the Shen family. Please help me. I have no help, only you."

Lu Huainan patted his back gently, resting his chin on the top of his head.

"Brother Yun, if you're so tired, why don't you take a rest? It's okay, just for a while. Listen to me, go to sleep obediently, and don't think too much."

Shen Muyun nestled in his arms, drowsy, "Huainan, I'll just sleep for a while. Remember to wake me up at 6 o'clock. I still have to prepare relevant materials. If I'm late, today's formation will be delayed."

Lu Huainan gently stroked Shen Muyun's hair, "Go to sleep, don't think about it, I'm still here to take care of these things."

Shen Muyun nestled in Lu Huainan's arms and sighed softly. Slowly, darkness engulfed his body, eroding his nerves bit by bit until he fell asleep completely.

"Brother Yun, are you asleep?"

Lu Huainan poked Shen Muyun's cheek, but there was no movement. He looked at the food on the bedside, hugged Shen Muyun and lay together, closing his eyes and humming an unknown song.

"Brother Yun, go to sleep. As long as you get enough sleep, everything will be fine."

——

When Shen Muyun woke up, it was already the afternoon of the next day. The bright sunshine poured in through the small window, feeling warm. The cup rested softly on his body, which was indeed comfortable. He wanted to sleep a little longer.

Shen Muyun touched the side in a daze, and it felt cold. He was suddenly startled. Something was wrong. This was definitely not right. Where did Lu Huainan go?

He immediately opened his eyes and saw something unopened at the bedside. Lu Huainan really didn't move anything and just disappeared so suddenly.

Shen Muyun hurriedly called Lu Huainan's name several times, but there was no response. He went to check the bathroom and there was no one there.

He opened the door and found the corridor deserted and empty, with only the shadow of the room attendant visible occasionally.

Where did Lu Huainan go? Did he suddenly return to China while he was asleep, or did he go to find Shen Liuyun alone? All kinds of speculations instantly flooded into Shen Muyun's mind, making him feel inexplicably blocked.

He took out his phone, looked at the pinned name on it, and made a video call to him directly.

No one answered the phone for a long time, and he even began to feel annoyed. Since Lu Huainan installed a positioning system on his mobile phone, he should have done the same.

Shen Muyun threw his phone aside, hugged the quilt, and looked at the scenery outside. Where should he go to find Lu Huainan? Where did he go? Will Lu Huainan never come back? A lot of negative emotions eroded his nerves and even made him feel manic.

"Brother Yun, how did you sleep?"

Lu Huainan opened the door and saw Shen Muyun wrapped in the quilt alone, staring blankly at the scenery outside.

He walked over and sat next to Shen Muyun, gently touching his hair.

"Brother Yun, what's wrong with you?"

Shen Muyun's eyes were filled with tears, and she hugged Lu Huainan in front of her, as if she was afraid that he would disappear in an instant.

"Huainan, where have you been? Don't you want me anymore? I miss you so much. When I got up just now, you weren't by my side. I called your name and looked outside, but there was no sign of you. I thought about it so much, but I couldn't think of anything. I called you, but you ignored me."

Lu Huainan took out his cell phone from his pocket and found that it was turned off.

"Brother Yun, I forgot to charge my phone last night. I just ordered lunch. It's already afternoon, so you have to eat something. You're not in a good mental state, so I hope you're okay."

Shen Muyun was stunned for a moment, then hugged Lu Huainan's waist, "Huainan, it seems that you are the only one I have now. No one here likes me. I seem to have really been abandoned by everyone."

Lu Huainan pinched his ear and said, "How is that possible? My family likes you very much. My sister says every day that she likes to ship you as a couple. What do you think? Will we ever break up?"

Shen Muyun rubbed his red and swollen eyes and pinched Lu Huainan's arm hard.

"Hiss...Brother Yun, what are you doing? It hurts so much."

Shen Muyun pinched his cheek again, and the warm touch made him feel Lu Huainan's presence.

"It's okay. I just want to know if this is my dream and whether you will disappear after waking up."

Lu Huainan smiled, "Brother Yun, when did you become so sensitive? If someone didn't know, they would think I was bullying you. Where did the brave Brother Yun go?"

Shen Muyun's eyes were red, and her face was even redder as she looked at Lu Huainan, "Don't say it, I'm so hungry. And I asked you to wake me up at six o'clock, why didn't you wake me up!"

Lu Huainan shrugged helplessly, "Brother Yun, you can't blame me for this. I just called you several times but couldn't wake you up, so I stayed in bed with you. In the afternoon, I saw that you still hadn't woken up, so I thought I had to eat something, so I went out. I didn't expect that you were overthinking it."

Shen Muyun pulled the quilt and covered his head directly, "How could it be, I didn't, I definitely didn't think too much, I just suddenly became sensitive, I just arrived at a place, and I stayed in bed, so I didn't get enough sleep, and lack of sleep will also be like this."

Lu Huainan looked at Shen Muyun's flustered look, but did not rush to expose her. "Since it's already afternoon, let's go to the beach and have some fun. We can talk about it tomorrow and think about those unpleasant things tomorrow. I heard that there is a beer festival going on at the beach here, so we can go over and take a look."

Lu Huainan checked the time and said, "But I have to eat something now."

Shen Muyun touched his stomach. Speaking of eating, he felt that his stomach was almost deflated.

"I want to eat now. Can I have something else?"

Lu Huainan opened the bag on the bedside, and found the exquisite snacks were all individually packaged.

"I bought this at a Chinese supermarket. It was really not easy, it was very difficult."

"So how many stores did you visit?"

Lu Huainan pursed his lips. "There are only three or four, and it's the middle of the night. There aren't many supermarkets open 24 hours here, so everyone runs away right after get off work."

Shen Muyun sighed, "Thank you for your hard work. This is my own business, and I should have handled it myself."

"The Shen family's affairs are also my affairs. There's nothing I can do about it. Who made us together again? Although the media has said a lot of things directly and indirectly, we don't seem to have written anything seriously yet and then read it out. After this matter is over, how about this, this is it, we officially get married, and have a proper marriage. Brother Yun, what do you think?"

Chen Muyun smiled bitterly, thinking that if this world mission was really over, then would his fate with Lu Huainan disappear just like that? It could even be understood as a part of a parallel world, and no one would recognize each other by then.

"Brother Yun, why are you daydreaming again? Are you thinking about work again? Don't think about that anymore. There are so many things to do. Let's eat something first and then go to the beach. As for the dinner I ordered, you can have it as a midnight snack later, right, Brother Yun?"

"Well, you're right, let's go for a good stroll."
