My System Forces Me to Live off Women-Chapter 222 - 201: Nightmare

"People often say that if you miss someone too much, you'll meet them in a dream; psychology says that when people's moods completely overlap, they have the basic conditions to have the same dream."

"But if you allow them to reach each other's dreams, consciousness traverses and intertwines, staying clear-headed, and shares a happy and fulfilling life, what conditions does this require when they wake up and remember vividly?"

"I thought about it for a long time and didn't find an answer; maybe only matched souls can achieve this. After all, in the realm of the soul, nothing is arbitrary."

Li Peifeng shamelessly posted these words on his social media, then sat in front of the computer, ready to continue writing.

After he announced his ambitious desires, Wu Wenyue and Xu Manning left.

They didn't leave quietly; in fact, they were furious, constantly hurling verbal abuse at Li Peifeng, saying anything unpleasant, and even spat at him several times.

"Really want to confess to uncle and aunt and let them see what kind of scoundrel you are!"

"Confirmed by your eyes, you're not human! Li the b**ch, if you want a harem so bad, why not become a stud pig!"

It was understandable at this point, given Li Peifeng spilled his true feelings while writing "love letters," taking advantage of Xu Manning and Wu Wenyue's irrational state, commanding them on what to say;

"The five-in-one lasting forever," "As long as you can handle Xiaoge and Tianxuan, it doesn't matter to us," "Sister Tianxuan is big, I'm really interested now" and such things…

As everyone knows, words spoken in bed shouldn't be taken seriously.

No matter what rogue words are said in bed, they don't count once you get off.

But Li Peifeng mentioned them afterward and took them seriously, so it's inevitable that Xu Manning and Wu Wenyue got angry and left. Not having given him a beating was already considered lenient due to the lingering charm of the "love letter."

Li Peifeng somewhat anticipated these consequences, sensing that Wu Wenyue and Xu Manning might actually start a cold war with him.

Yet Li Peifeng didn't regret it because he thought he couldn't fulfill the conditions given by the two girls, couldn't guarantee he wouldn't be tempted by Delilah and vixen again; better short pain than long, otherwise lying now would cause greater troubles in the future.

On the other hand, Li Peifeng felt that if he sincerely apologized, promised not to flirt anymore, Wu Wenyue and Xu Manning might move back to Jade District to live with him.

Restoring the three-person cohabitation life would be wonderful, but Zhao Qingge might get mad…

Joint progress is key, leaving shortcoming will definitely cause leakage!

"It's difficult, how could the world find a two-way law, not betraying Buddha nor lover?"

Li Peifeng shook his head in nostalgia, then cast aside his thoughts, immersing himself in the creation of the book "Female Sovereignty."

The ending of a novel is usually thought of by the author when they start creating.

Even though this ending might be vague or unsure, there is always a "symbol of the ending" in the creator's heart; otherwise, they cannot hold the character's personality or grasp the plot direction.

However, it's not absolute, as the story and characters develop, influenced by the readers' preference and the market, the author can't guarantee that the endpoint thought of initially would be the implemented endpoint.

Moreover, people's thoughts change, creators' thoughts change, Li Peifeng now wanted some change.

The original ending of "Female Sovereignty: One Hundred and Eight Treasures; I'm the Big Shot on Liang Mountain" as he planned was a HE, a big reunion.

The heroine pacifies the world, happiness for all, 108 sons achieve full merit and ascend to the heavens, the heroine and hero also give birth to twins, briefly mentioning other side characters' happy lives, ending there.

But looking at it from the current perspective, Li Peifeng is somewhat dissatisfied…

"The scale is too small!"

"How to make the scale larger?"

Li Peifeng fell into thought, feeling a bottleneck, he took to TT, then asked in the book club:

A-bit-of-wind-in-the-world: "What kind of ending do you think should 'Female Sovereignty' have?"

His goal wasn't to adopt readers' opinions.

Letting readers guess the ending of the book is embarrassing, Li Peifeng just wanted to borrow the readers' ideas and draw inspiration.

It was late at night, but many night owls were still in the group. Seeing Li Peifeng appear, they enthusiastically commented.

There were body junkies asking for photo leaks, rich folks randomly distributing red packets, and gossip experts questioning his relationship with Wu Wenyue from TikTok.

Only a few group friends responded to Li Peifeng's question, yet it was enough to give him some ideas about the ending of "Female Sovereignty," while reflecting on the integration when Huang Tianxuan sent him a private message on TT.

Old Huang Next Door: "Are you home now?"

A-bit-of-wind-in-the-world: "Yes, what time are you coming to my place tomorrow?"

Old Huang Next Door: "Forget it, let's talk another day, lest you feel strange about it."

A-bit-of-wind-in-the-world: "It's not that bad, though I'm shameless, but still aware of myself."

Old Huang Next Door: "Hah, what's the meaning behind your social media post?"

A-bit-of-wind-in-the-world: "Just randomly posted."

Old Huang Next Door: "Do you mean we are matched souls that dream together? So nauseating, can't sleep being disgusted by your post this late at night."

A-bit-of-wind-in-the-world: "I can be responsible."

Old Huang Next Door: "How to be responsible?"

A-bit-of-wind-in-the-world: "Tell you bedtime stories?"

Old Huang Next Door: "Okay, induce it through audio, if I don't sleep you can't hang up."

Li Peifeng chuckled, took out his phone to dial Huang Tianxuan's voice chat, yet before connected, Yun Xin Yue Xing sent him another message, just two words, very familiar words;

"Photos."

No clock was ever so punctual!

Li Peifeng recalled how Old Zhao hurriedly left his house today, then ponder Yun Xin Yue Xing asking for photos now, inevitably spurring fanciful thoughts…

A-bit-of-wind-in-the-world: "Honey, can I owe it for now? Feeling a bit mentally drained today, don't want to send."

Just as the message was sent, the voice call connected.

"What story are you planning to tell?"

Huang Tianxuan's voice came through the microphone.

Li Peifeng smiled and said, "Do you want to hear about the first shared dream Zhou Qingge and I had?"

"I seem to vaguely remember."

Huang Tianxuan hesitated: "Did you guys talk to me and Yueyue, Manning in the dream?"

"Then let's switch to talking about the paranormal events I've encountered in my life..."

"Don't!" Huang Tianxuan quickly interrupted: "If you tell ghost stories I won't be able to sleep even more, better talk about that dream."

"Speaking of back then..."

Li Peifeng held the phone to his ear, telling Huang Tianxuan the story, while also chatting with 'Yun Xin Yue Xing' by typing.

Yun Xin Yue Xing: "Why exhausted?"

The World Breezes: "Because today I wanted something sexy with my mentor, but she ran away, ran away~"

Yun Xin Yue Xing: "Before running away, didn't she give you this traitor a slap?"

The World Breezes: "No."

Yun Xin Yue Xing: "That's quite a pity."

The World Breezes: "Still teasing me? No photos for you!"

"My dream with Old Zhao was different from the second time our five people had one, completely as a traveler, first entering the dream, unable to communicate with the Otherworld even in language..."

Li Peifeng multitasked, vividly telling the story, but soon he got stuck!

"What happened?" Huang Tianxuan wondered: "And then?"

Li Peifeng looked at the pajamas photo sent by Yun Xin Yue Xing on screen, raised his glass for a sip of water, and then said: "Then we began the difficult survival journey, but since the dream centered around us, everything went relatively smoothly..."

Yun Xin Yue Xing: "(Photo) Darling, I sent mine, send yours too."

The World Breezes: "Honey, are you trying to do that with my photo..."

"No!"

"Say you are, and I'll send it over, otherwise no!"

Seconds later, Yun Xin Yue Xing sent: "Send it or not!"

Li Peifeng couldn't help but think of Zhao Qingge on the other side of the network, typing this out with an angry face, grinned wide as if to take a screenshot...

"Why are you laughing?!"

Huang Tianxuan annoyedly said: "I hear your keyboard clicking, are you chatting with others?"

"Just writing."

Li Peifeng gently said: "I'm writing as I tell you the story..."

Multitasking has indeed its challenges, but to learn piano, distinguish priorities, and coordinate everything, the right arrangement, it can be managed effortlessly.

Like this time, Li Peifeng placed 'Yun Xin Yue Xing' lightly, Huang Tianxuan heavy. Why?

Because he wanted Zhao Qingge to maintain anticipation, and he would see her the next day, no need to linger with Old Zhao at night, otherwise Zhao Qingge would fall into sage time, and would surely cool down towards him the next day.

This, this is the little tips of a scumbag.

Proven, very effective!

The next morning, just after freshening up, Li Peifeng received a call from Zhao Qingge...

"Visit my office."

"Got it."

Li Peifeng dressed up and jogged into Beihua Normal University of Arts and Sciences, holding expectations, pushed open Zhao Qingge's office door with a big smile: "Mentor, you..."

Before he finished, the smile vanished.

Because he discovered a terrifying thing, those two women were also there!

"Came quickly." Xu Manning said with a sarcastic smile.

Wu Wenyue crossed her arms, eyes piercing: "Feeling good?"

The two women stood like guardians beside Zhao Qingge, who sat in the office chair, face frosty, voice as cold as ice breaking jade: "They said you wanted to include me in your harem?"

Li Peifeng shivered all over, dumbfounded, speechless.

"Laugh, why aren't you laughing now?" Wu Wenyue's sarcasm was obvious.

Xu Manning also mocked: "In front of your mentor, repeat the things you had us say on the bed yesterday!"

"You... told her everything?" Li Peifeng's face went pale, lips trembling: "That's... not proper to say."

"You dared to do it, we dared to say!"

"We told her everything, including every detail you had with us in bed..."

The two girls' expressions were eerie, like demons from hell.

Zhao Qingge's face distanced further, almost beyond Li Peifeng's sight, but he faintly saw Old Zhao's expression, as indifferent as if not knowing him.

"Li Peifeng, you've disappointed me. I've applied to the school for a different mentor for you, from now on, I hope we never contact again!"

...

"Ah~!"

Li Peifeng woke up in a cold sweat, looked around, still in the bedroom, morning sunlight shot through the curtain cracks, reflecting dust motes, yet he felt no warmth.

"A dream?!"

Li Peifeng, unsettled, lifted the covers, found the bed soaked, then checked the phone, no missed calls, finally sure.

"It really was a dream!"

Li Peifeng's soul slowly returned to his body but still unnerved, cursed continually: "Damn, this harem's not human-operated!"
