DuYan had a very big advantage, no matter what unexpected situation he encountered, he could calm down in the shortest time.

Back when DuYan realized that he never felt full, Xiao Ba’s appearance had greatly impacted DuYan’s worldview, but it only caused DuYan to freeze for a moment. Not before long, he quickly accepted the facts and quickly planned for his future.

It was the same now, he was shocked that he couldn’t forcibly leave, but DuYan's mind was blank for only a few seconds.

He quickly sorted out his priorities, and now was not a good time to discuss with Xiao Ba on how to break away.

The master of the dream was sitting next to him, and if he found that DuYan was acting strange, the dream would collapse.

Either it would cause damage to the other party, and DuYan would be forbidden to eat through the use of dreams; or DuYan would be trapped in this dream with no way out.

Regardless of the consequences, DuYan was unwilling to see and couldn’t afford it.

His reasoning went back online, and his face was slightly to one side, expressing rejection.

HeJin was an unusual gentleman at this time. As soon as he felt DuYan's refusal, he immediately stepped aside, "Sorry, I got a little out of control."

DuYan saw that the glass partition had been adjusted to block them out, so Chen Yezhou and Fang Xiangxiang in front could neither hear the conversation behind nor see the movement, so they didn't say much.

As long as he was not seen by others, DuYan would not be angry because of this kiss. HeJin's breath was very familiar to him and would not arouse too much disgust.

Seeing that there was no anger on DuYan's face, HeJin said, "Uncle, you didn't show too much disgust with my kiss. Does it mean that you don't hate me?"

DuYan didn't turn his head and replied, "If you could kiss on the cheek, I would be more used to it."

HeJin always understood the meaning behind DuYan's words quickly, and he smiled, "You treat me as a junior, so you treat this as a polite kiss. But I never wanted to be your junior.”

DuYan suddenly remembered Xiao Ba's words from that day. Now that forcibly separating was a foregone conclusion, it was better to seek a way of survival in this hopeless situation and see if he could convince the master of the dreams in front of him.

"HeJin, just what is it that you want?"

Seeing DuYan's expression soften, HeJin smiled deeper, "I want uncle to stay with me.”

"If it’s like back when you were in high school, then that is fine.” DuYan felt that he had already made a concession.

HeJin shook his head, "Not enough, what I want is far from when I was back in high school. After all, at that time, as long as I saw you, it was fine. But now, it’s different.”

DuYan asked, "Different?"

HeJin narrowed the distance between the two again, and said in a low voice, "Now, I want to kiss you, I want to see all of you, I want there to be no gap between us…”

"..." DuYan really wanted to show the youth HeJin, who roared about dirty adults, to see himself now.

In the end, he gave up on persuading the strange dream master who had twisted brain circuits.

Soon, the car stopped at the Xie Group.

DuYan and HeJin formed a strange understanding in just one day. The two entered DuYan's office together. HeJin laid on the sofa as he finished a cup of coffee before going out to deal with business affairs.

DuYan stayed in the office, waiting for HeJin to finish.

Seeing HeJin leave caused his strong sense of presence to slowly fade. DuYan then had time to communicate with Xiao Ba.

"Xiao Ba, what's the matter with what you just said about can’t leave?”

Xiao Ba responded quickly, "I just contacted the main body, and discussed with the split bodies that are scattered among other planes. They said that there are generally several possibilities for this situation."

Xiao Ba didn't say much, and directly projected the sorted data into DuYan's mind through.

The regulations and restrictions were clear. It was not impossible that there were cases in which one couldn’t forcibly leave. Although rare, cases could still be found in the Dandelion database.

After sorting through them, there were three reasons:

The time spent in the dream world was too long, and so the energy was not enough to supply a forced detachment.

The formation method at that point in time would have caused damage to the master of the dreams.

The last one was that the soul of the master of the dreams was too powerful, and the constructed world was the same as the real world. Even the subconscious of the master of the dream could affect the rules of the entire world.

The first possibility was directly ruled out by DuYan. Although he had spent more than ten years in the dream world, in fact, it was not a very long time in the vast array of cases.

There were some dream worlds that were placed in higher magic planes, such as cultivation worlds or dragon and dungeon worlds, which would often carry on for hundreds of thousands of years.

For the latter two possibilities, DuYan prefered the second one, because the last probability was really too rare.

Such powerful dream masters would only appear in the higher magic plane. Shao LingHeng was just an ordinary person on a low magic plane, how could he have such a powerful soul to build a real dream world.

But no matter what the possibility was, there was only one final solution. If he wanted to leave, he could only wait for the master of the dreams to wake up by himself.

Since it was a dream, there would always be time for when he would wake up.

DuYan looked at the last solution, and was a bit speechless. What kind of passive solution was this? His current situation was very dangerous, how could he just sit and wait and do nothing?

Although HeJin looked very gentle now, as if nothing happened on that day eight years ago, DuYan’s evidence had already been delivered to him.

DuYan didn't think HeJin would let go of his parents' grudges so easily. Perhaps after the Xie Family changed hands, HeJin would finally settle the ledger with him.

After becoming the owner of the Xie Family, HeJin would only find more things about DuYan. Thinking of the evidence he had forged, DuYan felt that HeJin would hold him accountable. A piece of iron as his window was inevitable.

In case HeJin thought of the deep blood feud of that time, HeJin would insist on sending the culprit to prison.

Thinking of that possibility, DuYan couldn’t help shivering a bit. He could not forcefully leave and could only wait for the master of the dreams to wake up. The days were going to be difficult.

DuYan decided in his heart that after disposing of the Xie Family, he would leave this troublesome country and go to Y country for retirement.

He had forged his identity a long time ago in Y Country, and it was not within the power of the Xie Family. As long as he arrived in Y Country, HeJin would not be able to grab him no matter how clever his method was.

In the next few days, DuYan cooperated with HeJin's arrangements and conscientiously accompanied each other to work every day.

The reason DuYan didn't return to Beicheng in advance was simple. The handles he had on Xie BoShun should also be sent to HeJin.

However, HeJin remained silent, which made DuYan somewhat doubt whether Xie BoShun had told HeJin about the incident.

Just as DuYan couldn't bear it and was going to try to stimulate Xie BoShun, HeJin finally made a move.

DuYan saw traces of his safe being opened in the secret compartment of his study, and his tense mood for the past few days finally relaxed a little.

Not long after HeJin took the things away, the affairs of the Xie Group also settled into the dust. After all, the focus of his career was not in Nancheng, his goal was also the Xie Family rather than the simple Xie Group. The two of them tacitly returned to Beicheng together.

After returning to Beicheng, DuYan parted ways with HeJin and they had not seen each other for a few months.

DuYan in the past few months, in accordance with his long-awaited plan, delivered the Xie Family to HeJin step by step, just like the Xie Group.

In this dream world, he has prepared a good show for over ten years. Although some plots had derailed, the plot surrounding the Xie Family had come to a perfect end.

Before the final scene, DuYan received a letter.

There was no signature on the envelope, but it suddenly appeared on DuYan's desk. After opening it, the handwriting on the letter was profound and powerful, the twists and turns of the pen carried a biting cold meaning.

DuYan recognized at a glance that this was HeJin's handwriting.

After picking up the school bully HeJin from the Zhou family, DuYan couldn't stand his dog-crawling font, and forced HeJin to study. Starting from copying calligraphy, he taught for a whole year before HeJin's handwriting began to come together.

It could be said that HeJin's handwriting was taught by DuYan, so he would naturally recognize it.

Maybe because everything was coming to an end, and so he had been constantly thinking about the past. DuYan ridiculed himself secretly, and withdrew his thoughts to read the contents of the letter.

The letter was full of words. The beginning was full of HeJin pouring out his thoughts and feelings, which made DuYan sad. DuYan read ten lines in one glance, and finally came to the key part at the end.

The most important thing in this letter was actually only one sentence, "Uncle, the show you are looking forward to is about to begin."

The HeJin now, although was a bit neurotic and looked like a pervert towards DuYan, but he was vigorous and resolute while doing things on the outside.

The day after receiving the letter, DuYan received a letter from the elders of the Xie Family requesting a family meeting.

The Xie Family was still a big family, and still maintained a traditional family management to a great extent. For example, like now, when there were important decisions to make, the retired Xie Family elders would come forward and hold a family meeting.

DuYan’s final play was about to start.
