Huh? There's a magic school here.
Chapter 417 Wake up
Young people's troubles come and go quickly. Soon, Liu Yongqiang and his best friend Fatty were chatting about which novels were good to read recently.
"How far have you gotten with that book you borrowed yesterday, 'Conquering Another World: Starting with Building Hogwarts'? How's it going? If you like it, lend it to me when you're done!"
"It's alright, I've only read half of it and it's quite interesting. I'll give it to you after I finish reading it!"
"Qiangzi is a true brother, I'll treat you to the internet cafe tonight!"
The two chatted and laughed for a while before parting ways and going their separate ways to their respective homes. However, when Liu Yongqiang opened his door and saw the busy figure in the kitchen, his eyes inexplicably welled up with tears.
Liu Yongqiang's mother knew her beloved son was back when she heard the door open, but she was busy cooking and didn't turn around, only saying a word.
"Son, there's a watermelon I bought on the table. Have a couple of slices to cool down. Mom will have another dish ready soon!"
Liu Yongqiang didn't say anything. He felt a strange urge in his heart. He went to the kitchen and hugged his mother from behind.
"Mom, I miss you so much!"
Liu's mother turned around and looked at Liu Yongqiang strangely, then touched Liu Yongqiang's forehead.
"What's wrong with you today? Did you get into trouble at school?"
"No, I just missed you!"
"What's there to miss when we see each other every day? Are you short of pocket money? Mom will give you fifty yuan in a bit, but you're not allowed to use it to go online!"
Soon, Liu's mother finished cooking, and Liu Yongqiang's father returned home from get off work. Liu Yongqiang's mother was a doctor at a hospital, and his father was a railway worker. The family of three ate lunch together in a particularly warm atmosphere, but Liu Yongqiang seemed strange at the table, constantly shedding tears.
Liu's mother and father looked at their son with strange eyes, and only spoke hesitantly after confirming with Liu Yongqiang several times that he was alright.
"Qiangzi, your dad and I are going to your grandma's house tomorrow. We heard her old ailment has flared up again, so we're going to visit her. Just grab a bite at school for lunch, and we'll be back in the evening."
"do not go!"
When Liu Yongqiang heard that his parents were going to his maternal grandmother's house, he immediately shouted it out, and after shouting it out, he himself was a little confused.
"Son, what's wrong with you today? Why are you acting so strangely? Why won't you let us go to your grandma's house? Did something happen? You must tell Mom if anything is wrong, don't do anything foolish on your own!"
Liu Yongqiang felt a surge of fear. His instinct was to stop his parents from letting them go to his maternal grandmother's house. But he couldn't quite explain why. Just as Liu Yongqiang was trying to persuade his parents...
Suddenly, time stood still, and he was horrified to find a foreigner sitting on his sofa. But as he examined the foreigner closely, memories flooded back. Yes, he remembered! He was a soldier from China, and the scene before him was the day before his parents had died.
In his memory, his parents went to his maternal grandmother's house the next day. When they returned home late at night, a serious car accident occurred because of a drunk driver, resulting in the deaths of both his parents. So he instantly understood why everything felt strange today, and why he had strongly opposed his parents' plan to visit his maternal grandmother.
All the reasons were found: these were his own past memories. He looked at his parents, frozen in time, and tears streamed down his face. These were his parents from ten years ago; these were his parents, forever etched in his memory.
Andres simply watched Liu Yongqiang quietly, sitting there without speaking or disturbing Liu Yongqiang's reunion with his parents. Until Liu Yongqiang looked up at him again.
"Hello, wizard, I don't know what's wrong with me? Shouldn't I be at the outpost on the continent of Karen? Where am I?"
"You're currently in a dream, and it seems this is the scene most vividly etched in your memory. As for why you're here, it's hard to explain right now. You can think of it as a mental magic attack that put you into a deep sleep, immersing you in your own dream. I've come in to wake you!"
Liu Yongqiang didn't doubt Andres's words after hearing them; he just looked back at his parents. He wondered if this was all a dream. How wonderful it would be to live here forever, with his beloved in his dreams.
Andres seemed to understand Liu Yongqiang's thoughts, so he offered words of comfort.
"A fake is a fake. People can't live in their dreams forever! They always have to face reality, right?"
"But it's so real, so beautiful!"
"Here's what we'll do. There are many others who have fallen into a deep sleep like you. I need time to rescue them, but I can give you three days to stay in your dreams. However, after three days, whether you like it or not, I will forcibly take you away from here."
Liu Yongqiang was taken aback for a moment after hearing this, then nodded firmly and agreed to Andres's conditions.
"Three days? Fine, this time I promise I won't let my parents leave me again!"
As soon as Liu Yongqiang finished speaking, Andres left Liu Yongqiang's dream, and in Liu Yongqiang's eyes, the world returned to normal. His parents' concerned eyes regained their light, and Liu Yongqiang thought for a moment before speaking.
"How about I go see Grandma with you tomorrow? I haven't seen her in so long, I miss her so much!"
Seeing that their son was acting strangely today, Liu's parents were a little worried about leaving him home alone. So, after discussing it, they agreed to Liu Yongqiang's suggestion and even called his teacher at school to ask for him to take the day off tomorrow.
Then Liu Yongqiang happily went to school in the afternoon. He had figured out that since this place was his dream, he should make the most of these three hard-won days. During these three days, he did many things that he had regretted in the past.
First, he changed his parents' fate of dying in a car accident. Then, he confessed his feelings to his former love, the one he had always longed for. Finally, on the third night, he personally cooked a sumptuous meal for his parents, and then left the dream with a deep sense of satisfaction. He fulfilled his long-cherished wish, even if only in a dream.
Liu Yongqiang woke up from his dream, startled as soon as he opened his eyes. He was surrounded by people, and he even spotted his chief of staff in the crowd. He immediately tried to get up and salute, but his plan failed as a group of medical staff pushed him back onto the bed for a series of examinations.
As for Andres, he woke up at the same time as Liu Yongqiang, proving that time in the Book of Dreams is meaningless. No matter how long a person stays in a dream, waking up is just a matter of a moment.
