Chapter 8: Finally dreamt about him again

Cheng JinXue was very confused himself.

He carefully recalled the dream he had last night. He was pretty

much certain that the person who appeared in his dream last

night was Zhuang Zhou.

He scratched his head: “I dreamt about our little friend saying a

lot of things to me…… I think he even asked me if I wanted to

become rich. After that, I think I told him, I don’t want to be rich,

I only want to find a wife hahaha. I can’t remember the details of

what happened after that. But I’m pretty sure it was Zhuang

Zhou, no doubt.”

Cheng JinXue didn’t think too much about it. A dream, you know.

Most of the time, people can only remember the general idea.

Wen XiaoYun asked: “He spoke to you in the galactic language?”

Cheng JinXue said dubiously: “That’s right. What else would it

be?”

Wen XiaoYun stopped talking.

When he dreamt of Zhuang Zhou, this little friend didn’t speak

the galactic language at all.

Cheng JinXue said jokingly: “Zhuang Zhou is really too good

looking. Just now, when I came to find you, I even bumped into

Zhang Feng’s little squad. I think I heard them say, Zhang Feng

also dreamt about Zhuang Zhou yesterday night. They were even

teasing Zhang Feng, saying he might have fallen for our little

friend at first sight!”

Wen XiaoYun: “.......”

Cheng JinXue: “Oh right, boss, didn’t you say before that you

dreamt about someone you just met continuously for several

nights? Was that also Zhuang Zhou?”

Wen XiaoYun said expressionlessly: “No.”

Cheng JinXue thought briefly: “Right right, how can everyone who

meets Zhuang Zhou all dream about him. He’d be something like

a magnet, making everyone fall for him at first sight!”

Wen XiaoYun, who had dreamt about Zhuang Zhou even before

meeting him in person: “........”

With a calm expression, he gave Cheng JinXue a sideways

glance: “What? Did you fall for him at first sight?”

Cheng JinXue shook his head repeatedly: “How can that be, boss.

I’m not the same as you. I like girls!

Huh, wait a second.

It seemed like the boss really did like men.

Then?

Cheng JinXue still wanted to say something, but Wen XiaoYun

calmly shifted the topic: “Where’s the battle report for the recent

fight against the Alien Insects?”

Cheng JinXue’s focus immediately shifted. He swiftly handed over

what he was holding and said seriously: “It’s here. The fallen

soldiers have already been reported clearly to the higher ups. As

soon as the compensation arrives, we can make arrangements to

disseminate it per usual. Our legion will add additional

compensation as well.”

Wen XiaoYun acknowledged with an ‘En”.

“Oh right, you know how you already reported to the higher ups

when we picked you up yesterday? The military headquarters

over there sent me a message bright and early this morning. The

authorities have announced the news of your survival. However,

because the people haven’t seen you, no one believed this news.

Therefore, the higher ups want you to make an appearance

before we return to port.”

Wen XiaoYun had no objections: “Very well. You can make the

arrangements accordingly.”

The people in the 3rd legion had just experienced numerous

warps in a short amount of days. Their bodies were still not

accustomed.

Because of this, after picking up Wen XiaoYun, the battleship

Wyvern didn’t leave directly. Instead, they planned to rest in the

same spot for a few days.

Rest period was the perfect time to explore the extent of

radiation on this planet, as well as the existence of any natives.

Wen XiaoYun delegated this task to Cheng JinXue.

“I will definitely complete this mission!” Receiving the task, Cheng

JinXue got ready to make the arrangements immediately.

“Wait.” Wen XiaoYun called him to a halt.

Cheng JinXue asked: “Boss, do you have any other instructions?”

Wen XiaoYun said: “Where is Zhang Feng?”

Cheng JinXue said: “I don’t know. Probably in the training room?”

Wen XiaoYun acknowledged with an ‘en’: “Tell him to come find

me.”

After Cheng JinXue left, Wen XiaoYun opened the ship’s

surveillance monitor and discovered that the room next to his still

remained closed.

He looked at the time. It was still early. Zhuang Zhou should still

be sleeping.

Wen XiaoYun pressed his lips together, an incomprehensible look

in his deep, dark eyes.

After a short while, Zhang Feng arrived and saluted respectfully.

“Boss, Vice-Admiral Cheng said you wanted me?”

Wen XiaoYun looked at Zhang Feng.

Zhang Feng was a tall, young man who had an open personality,

like the sunlight. His psychic power was S level. His physical

qualities and strength were both very strong. Wen XiaoYun had

made a special exception to accept him and place him as the

leader of an elite little squad.

Wen XiaoYun slowly said: “How did you sleep last night?”

Zhang Feng didn’t understand but still answered obediently:

“Answering boss, I slept very well.”

Wen XiaoYun said in a well paced manner: “Just now Vice-admiral

Cheng told me that after we return to the Capital, he plans to

request leave to attend marriage interviews. I took a glance. You

seem to be the right age as well. Do you want to request leave

also?”

Zhang Feng hastily said: “No no no. Boss, right now I only want

to focus on my career.”

“En.” Wen XiaoYun said in a flat tune: “If you have the intent,

you can mention it. The 3rd legion also manages the personal

affairs of its members. Vice-admiral Cheng said that you even

dreamt about someone you liked yesterday night. If you two are

really well suited, it’s easy to approve the wedding vacation now,

since the battles have ended.”

Hearing this, Zhang Feng’s face instantly turned red. Despite

being big and tall, he flushed like a young wife. Terrified that Wen

XiaoYun would really drive him back home to get married, Zhang

Feng hastily explained: “It wasn’t someone I liked! Vice-admiral

Cheng misunderstood! We dreamt about Mister Zhuang Zhou. Not

just me, Zhou HongYi and the others all dreamt about him……

Zhou HongYi was even talking in his dreams, mumbling and

crying at the same time!”

Wen XiaoYun had no expression on his face: “....... You all dreamt

about him?”

Zhang Feng said with a blush: “That seems about right. However,

it’s hard to say. Zhou HongYi and the other forgot after they

woke up so they’re not very certain. I also pretty much forgot

everything. I just, just remember that it was Mister Zhuang

Zhou……”

As for what exactly did he do in the dream and what did he say,

he really couldn’t remember anything at all.

“En.” Wen XiaoYun said calmly: “I’m very happy that in your

heart, you’re thinking about your career.”

Zhang Feng let out a breath of relief. The Admiral shouldn’t try to

send him back home to get married again right?

Wen XiaoYun said nonchalantly: “Why don’t you take some

people and explore the situation of this planet together with

Vice-admiral Cheng today.”

Zhang Feng received his orders: “Yes!”

Wen XiaoYun added nonchalantly: “Take everyone in your little

squad with you.”

Zhang Feng obediently exited the main control room and left the

rest area. When he passed Zhuang Zhou’s room, he stopped.

Subconsciously, he had an impulse. An impulse to knock open the

door and pay respect to Mr. Zhuang Zhou who was inside.

Zhang Feng felt a chill all over. Fck, why would he have this kind

of impulse. Did his dreams turn him stupid?!

Zhang Feng increased his pace and left swiftly.

Wen XiaoYun sat in his chair for a while and then opened the

monitor for another look.

After a moment, he got up directly and walked towards Zhuang

Zhou’s room.

Inside the room.

Zhuang Zhou was sleeping soundly inside his Divine Image.

Yesterday night, he bestowed a large scale dream and used up all

of his divine powers. Resting inside the Divine Image made him

recover a bit faster.

Xiao PoLan was earnestly and diligently worshipping the Divine

Image, devout and focused.

When Zhuang Zhou woke up, Xiao PoLan was still worshipping.

Zhuang Zhou can feel that the strength of Xiao PoLan’s faith

towards him has become even purer.

Such a pious believer. Zhuang Zhou even felt moved by Xiao

PoLan: “You’re the best after all.”

He complained quietly: “There’s so many people on this

spaceship. Yesterday night, I asked them if they wanted to

become rich, they all said no…… Why are intergalactic people so

strange? None of them want to become rich?”

The one that left the deepest impression on Zhuang Zhou was a

person who said he didn’t want to become rich. Zhuang Zhou had

asked him what he wanted, he said he wanted a toy doll, but

manly men can’t play with a toy doll, so this became his heart’s

desire.

“And then there’s this other one. I asked him if he wanted to

become rich. He said to me while crying, he didn’t want to

become rich at all. He only wanted to go on vacation. Due to

being unable to go on vacation, there’s already a pile of over 60

pairs of unwashed socks in his wardrobe that he didn’t have the

time to wash……”

Xiao PoLan looked at its God with a tilted head, its mechanical

blue eyes flickering in great bewilderment.

Zhuang Zhou pondered: “However! People have their own

ambitions. Just like Wen XiaoYun. He seems to have no interest

in becoming rich either. So why don’t I just fulfill their heart’s

wishes. I can obtain faith this way as well.”

Ai, he was about to steal the Wish Gods’ job again.

Good thing this was space. The Wish Gods shouldn’t be able to

complain about him here.

At this time, the communication screen on the door lit up. Wen

XiaoYun’s handsome face appeared on the communication

screen: “Are you awake?”

Zhuang Zhou jogged over with small steps to open the door.

Wen XiaoYun looked at the tuft of hair sticking out on top of

Zhuang Zhou’s head and asked: “Did you just wake up?”

Zhuang Zhou nodded his head and gave him a smile: “En en, just

woke up for a little while ago.”

Wen XiaoYun asked: “Are you comfortable living here?”

Zhuang Zhou said: “Comfortable.”

He slept in the Divine Image anyways. The Divine Image can be

placed anywhere so staying anywhere was the same.

Wen XiaoYun said: “Then, did you sleep well?”

Zhuang Zhou said: “Pretty good.”

“En.” Wen XiaoYun said: “I didn’t sleep well last night.”

Zhuang Zhou froze for a second: “Then do you want to sleep

some more?”

Wen XiaoYun said: “Can I?”

Zhuang Zhou thought it strange: “Of course.”

Why not?

It’s not like he can stop Wen XiaoYun and forbid him from

sleeping or something.

As Zhuang Zhou was busy being confused, he saw Wen XiaoYun

walk inside with big steps and laid down in Zhuang Zhou’s bed.

He said to Zhuang Zhou: “En, thank you then.”

Done saying this, he closed his eyes.

Zhuang Zhou: “.......?”

He and the little robot exchanged a glance. Then he suddenly

realized.

So Wen XiaoYun wanted to sleep here?

He understood. Perhaps this room belonged to Wen XiaoYun

previously. Yesterday night, he gave up the room to Zhuang Zhou

and went elsewhere to sleep. That’s why he didn’t sleep well and

can only return now to make up for it.

Zhuang Zhou immediately nudged Xiao PoLan and made a ‘shush’

gesture, indicating to not make any noises and disturb Wen

XiaoYun.

Xiao PoLan obediently nodded its mechanical head, looking very

serious.

Wen XiaoYun actually didn’t sleep yet. He had been listening to

the movements in his surroundings. Then, he forced himself to

sleep.

The time passed slowly, seconds to minutes. Unwittingly, Wen

XiaoYun slowly fell asleep.

In a daze, he finally had another dream.

With quick steps, the youth jogged over towards him.

“Wen XiaoYun!” Zhuang Zhou’s voice was pleasant and sweet to

his ears. He was also speaking in the galactic language.

Wen XiaoYun lowered his head and looked at him: “En.”

Zhuang Zhou said gravely: “Wen XiaoYun, can you give Mr.Zhou

HongYi from elite squad#1 one day of vacation?”

Wen XiaoYun: “.......”

The youth finally spoke the galactic language, but Wen XiaoYun

thought it sounded all weird.

Zhuang Zhou said: “Because of this lack of vacation, he has

accumulated 63 pairs of unwashed socks! How terrible! Please

give him a day off!

Wen XiaoYun: “........????”
