Suddenly, the atmosphere inside the car became strange.
Su Zhe looked at Li Chen embarrassedly, glared at the two people in the back of the car, and scolded, "What are you barking about, you dog?"
"This is my brother, Du Yu. If you dare say another word, you'd better get past me today."
"Don't blame me for being ruthless then; I'll take over your entire company."
There were two people in the back seat. One of them was Du Yu, Su Zhe had scolded, and the other was a woman who was very beautiful, with long, snow-white hair draped over her shoulders, and her scarlet eyes were constantly observing Li Chen.
However, Li Chen didn't notice her, and was somewhat embarrassed as he kept looking at the scenery rushing past the window.
Du Yu only calmed down after being scolded by Su Zhe.
As the vehicle moves.
They soon arrived at an incredibly luxurious hotel.
Su Zhe seemed to be doing it somewhat deliberately, getting out of the car first to help the woman out.
"Sister Yue, we've arrived."
Cang Yue nodded, glanced at Li Chen who got out of the passenger seat, and then got out of the car.
It seemed that someone had already noticed their car at the hotel entrance and came forward to greet them.
"Please come this way, everyone. The Venerable Master has been waiting for you for quite some time."
Su Zhe grabbed Li Chen, who was trying to sneak away, and said, "Chen-ge, let's go."
"I'm treating you to a big meal today, bro."
"By the way, let me introduce you. These two are students from the same college as me. Her name is Cang Yue, and this guy who spoke rudely just now is Du Yu. Of course, he doesn't have any bad intentions, he's just a bit short-tempered."
Du Yu, standing to the side, snorted coldly, his eyes filled with displeasure, but he did not refute.
It was Li Chen who spoke first, his tone complicated. "Can I really come here?"
"I have no money, and I don't have the same background or status as you..."
Su Zhe chuckled and said, "It's alright. Someone specifically wanted to see you today, so please eat as much as you like."
"It's okay, I'll take care of it."
The group, accompanied by their conversation, had already arrived at the VIP room.
There weren't many people inside; it was incredibly empty, except for this circular sofa.
A man in a white robe sat in the main seat, his body seemingly shimmering with starlight, while on the other side, a man in a red robe stroked a box in his hand.
At that moment, a strange sense of familiarity seemed to flash through Li Chen's mind, but he had never seen the two of them before. He followed Su Zhe inside.
As soon as he entered, Su Zhe shouted, "Xian-ge, you're here!"
"Hurry up and serve the food, my brother here is probably starving."
The man in white robes opened his eyes, his gaze immediately falling on Li Chen, then on Cang Yue, completely ignoring Du Yu as if he were invisible.
"Please sit down, the food is served."
The round table in the center slowly rose up.
High-tech! This was the first time Li Chen had ever seen something so interesting, and he suddenly hesitated to sit down.
I'm dirty, and I'm afraid I'll damage these things and won't be able to afford to pay for them.
Su Zhe had already sat down next to Su Xian.
For a moment, Li Chen was wondering whether to sit or not.
At that moment, a slender, jade-like hand grabbed his, and the icy touch made Li Chen pull his hand away abruptly.
Cang Yue appeared beside him at some point, smiling at him.
"You must be Li Chen."
I've heard Su Zhe mention you, my brother, a long time ago.
"It was definitely different after we met."
"If only you could wake up... oh no... awaken."
Su Zhe also noticed Cang Yue interacting with Li Chen and quickly said, "Chen-ge, sit here." As he spoke, he gave a subtle look, a look that only Li Chen could understand, after all, they had been playing together since childhood.
After hesitating for a few seconds, Li Chen sat down, and Cang Yue gracefully sat down next to him.
Du Yu, sitting next to the man in the red robe, became much more obedient, silently looking down at his phone.
Looking at the steaming food on the table.
There were many dishes that Li Chen recognized and knew their prices, so he hesitated to pick up his chopsticks for a moment.
He had imagined himself eating these dishes.
But I didn't expect it to be in this way.
Suddenly, Cang Yue, disregarding the feelings of others, actually put the food she had picked up into Li Chen's bowl.
"This is..." Even the man in white robes was somewhat surprised and astonished.
Cang Yue simply smiled and replied, "Love at first sight."
Only Li Chen dared not speak, nor did he know what to do. He dared not eat, nor did he dare put the food he had put into his bowl back.
Su Zhe watched with a smile and said, "Chen-ge, eat, don't go hungry."
For some reason, Li Chen felt that everyone's eyes were on him. Why was that?
What exactly are these people trying to do?
Up until now, everything seems inexplicable.
It's strange, very strange.
What do I have that she likes, or what do I have that makes these people want to come looking for me?
In an instant, the private room fell silent.
A few minutes of silence
The man in white robes broke the silence first, saying, "You must be Li Chen."
My name is Su Xian.
Li Chen nodded and hummed in agreement.
Su Xian didn't feel impolite at all, and smiled, "I've heard many of your stories, all of which were told to me by Su Zhe, of course."
"I'll be blunt, I need your help."
Li Chen was taken aback. He thought it was just a casual remark and would be over soon. What was going on with asking for his help? He asked, "I'm just an ordinary person, how can I help you..."
You should find someone else.
Su Xian squinted and said, "No... only you can help me, because you are the foundation of this world."
He paused, then said, "Perhaps you don't understand, but that's precisely why we have this false world."
"What do you mean?" Li Chen, somewhat puzzled.
Suddenly, Cang Yue, standing nearby, explained for Su Xian, "This world is an illusion."
"Everything we see and hear is nothing but an illusion."
"Perhaps even I, Su Xian, and everything else is nothing but nothingness, but you Li Chen, are different. You are the foundation of this world, the source of everything."
Li Chen listened, half-confused, pointing to himself, and said incredulously, "Me? You're not joking, are you?"
"I'm just an ordinary person who hasn't even awakened any abilities, how could this be..."
At this moment, Su Xian said firmly, "But that's the truth. I've also wondered if my life has been too smooth, so smooth that I can have whatever I want."
"Even those powerful figures can be easily trampled by me. This is too unreal, it's like Dream."
"And do you know why I know about you?"
" In my Dreams, in my deepest Dreams, I often dream of your name and your face. It's not just me; Su Zhe and Cang Yue have also had this experience."
"That's why I suspect this might be Dream of yours, and that we so-called strong and successful people are just an illusion created because of your perception of the real world."
"And we have found enough evidence, each pointing in a certain direction."
