Xiang Huai tried his best to remain calm. Looking ahead, he said seriously and expressionlessly, “You heard wrongly.”
Xue Xi did not fall for it. “I remember that when I first met you and the two of us had just started to date, I dreamed of you… Later, during the college entrance examination, when you were not around, I also dreamed of you, and last night!”
She had had erotic dreams a few times, but it turned out that it was all because of him!
Xiang Huai coughed. “I have to clarify this. Some dreams were caused by me, but some were not.”
Xue Xi was shocked. “Which are, and which are not?”
Xiang Huai continued to look ahead. “Damn, it’s been too long. I forgot.”
“I didn’t forget. Come, let’s talk about it one by one,” Xue Xi slowly said. “I remember that one time, I saw your waist and dreamed of you taking off your clothes at night. That time, it was you who did it, right?”
She clearly did not have any messy thoughts when she saw the man’s waist during the day. Why did she have it in her dream?
Xiang Huai: “It’s been a year and a half. Why do you remember it so clearly?”
Xue Xi said coldly, “I can’t help it. My memory is good.”
Xiang Huai: “…”
Xue Xi: “If you don’t speak, it means that you admit it. Then after that…”
“…”
When he did it, he’d only wanted to teach the little kid how to fall in love through her dream, and he did not think too much about it. But now that she was speaking about it, why did it feel that he was being a creep?
It affected his image in the little kid’s heart!
Xiang Huai hurriedly interrupted her and changed the topic. “Let’s talk about the dreams later. Let’s talk about today’s business crime first.”
Xue Xi’s attention was indeed diverted. “What business crime?”
Xiang Huai explained, “That esper has the special power to enter dreams and can do so as he pleases. He deliberately entered the dreams of ordinary business moguls and said some specious things in their dreams. For example, in their dreams, he said that a certain piece of land is very expensive and that there is no competition. He gave those people psychological hints that they can take benefits from it. Just by this, the balance of Bin City’s economic development was already severely affected. Such an esper must be arrested.”
Xue Xi nodded in realization. “Don’t you have no special power?”
Xiang Huai: “A dream walker can lead others into a dream.”
In other words, in the special department, someone’s superpower was to enter dreams, and they could lead Xiang Huai into hers. Hence, Xiang Huai was not the one who could enter dreams.
“Oh,” Xue Xi replied in realization.
Xiang Huai continued, “This person is probably a little difficult to deal with. Otherwise, Lu Chao wouldn’t have called me. Shall we go take a look?”
Xue Xi: “…Okay.”
After that, when he saw that Xue Xi still wanted to discuss the dreams, Xiang Huai started another topic at once. “Tell me, what exactly is a special power?”
Xue Xi pondered for a moment. “It must be related to the awakening of human potential. Didn’t a study find that humans have only developed ten percent of their brains so far?”
Xiang Huai lowered his eyes in thought. “Then what do you think of espers?”
Xue Xi was confused and her eyes were dull. “What do you mean? There are so few espers. They can’t be of much use to the world, right?”
No matter how powerful an esper was, could they be more powerful than an atomic bomb?
Just as she was thinking this, she heard Xiang Huai say, “Do you know why espers appeared in this world?”
