Su Chen shifted his body, preparing to climb the ladder to get out of bed.
But before his feet even touched the ladder, he felt another wave of overwhelming drowsiness wash over him.
"Damn it! Again!"
Su Chen exclaimed inwardly.
Caught off guard, before he could even give the little paper doll any orders, he collapsed back onto the bed.
Huff, huff—
soon, his breathing calmed, and he drifted off to sleep.
Time continued to pass, relentlessly flowing.
Su Chen gradually began to dream.
He found himself in a garden filled with birdsong and fragrant flowers.
Fruit trees stood tall, and streams murmured.
A winding brook gurgled and cascaded down a low hill, plunging into a clear pool of water,
making a crisp, clock-like sound.
Su Chen followed the path, turning left and right, inhaling the sweet fragrance of flowers as he walked towards the pool.
Turning again, he bypassed a grove of trees.
A rich fragrance wafted towards him.
And then, Su Chen witnessed a scene that made him blush.
Six alluring women with slender figures were playing in the pool.
They wore only light veils.
As they splashed around, the veils became wet, revealing glimpses of their fair skin.
At the same time, they noticed Su Chen's presence.
They all looked at him, giving him bright smiles.
Then they raised their arms, their long, slender fingers beckoning.
The suggestive gesture, combined with their expressions, was incredibly seductive!
Watching this scene, Su Chen immediately imagined a voice in his mind:
"[Ding, Tyrant Experience Card!]"
This is too exciting!
Su Chen rubbed his nose and quickly looked away.
However, this didn't mean he lacked resistance and was about to have a nosebleed.
Mainly, Su Chen considered himself an upright person!
Accidentally seeing his sister bathing in the wild and glancing at her was one thing.
Looking again… that would be impolite!
Su Chen reassured himself.
The women giggled at the sight.
One particularly bold woman even stepped out of the pool, her light veil soaked through, and approached Su Chen.
"Why don't you look at me? Am I not beautiful?"
she said softly.
Su Chen considered retorting,
"Female benefactor, please have some self-respect."
But the words caught in his throat, and he sensed something was amiss.
His subconscious kept reminding him not to speak.
Why shouldn't he speak?
Su Chen was utterly confused.
"Hey, why aren't you paying attention to me? Don't you want to get closer to me?"
"Or perhaps you want to get closer to my sisters as well?"
the woman said with a coquettish laugh.
Hearing this, Su Chen's heart skipped a beat.
Good heavens! Trying
to provoke him, huh?
Testing this old man?!
Who could resist this?
Fortunately, Su Hongyi held a significant place in Su Chen's heart.
Her punch was equally powerful.
In the end, Su Chen remained unmoved, perfectly embodying the image of a virtuous man.
However, the next moment, the woman boldly moved closer to Su Chen.
She rubbed her wet body against Su Chen's arm.
"Who is Su Hongyi? Is she prettier than us?"
"Brother, touch her, is her skin as smooth as mine?"
Saying this, she reached out and grabbed Su Chen's wrist, trying to press his hand towards her breasts.
Su Chen frowned and quickly pulled away.
At the same time, his doubts deepened.
How could she hear his inner thoughts?
"Hoo~ Brother, because I'm your beloved, of course I can hear your inner thoughts."
Su Chen? ???
This is ridiculous!
Hearing this, Su Chen's vigilance began to swell wildly.
Something's not right.
This is all too strange.
Most importantly,
how did I get here?
Why do I have no memory of it?
Lost in thought, Su Chen heard the tinkling sound of the stream leaping into the pool.
It sounded like his alarm clock.
An alarm clock?
Su Chen was startled.
How could the sound of a stream flowing into a pool be an alarm clock?!
Su Chen instantly realized.
I'm dreaming! I'm trapped in a dream!
I'm being watched by a monster!
After discovering the truth, Su Chen hurriedly tried to wake up.
But he quickly discovered, to his dismay, that no matter how hard he tried,
even knowing it was a dream, he couldn't wake up.
Finally, he helplessly concluded that when someone is being watched by a monster, they cannot wake up from a dream on their own.
No wonder Ootengu couldn't wake up earlier!
Seeing Su Chen struggling to break free from the dream, the other women also emerged from the pool and walked towards him.
They moved with light, graceful steps, water droplets falling from their gauze skirts to the ground,
also making the sound of an alarm clock.
Su Chen heard it clearly; it was the sound of Da Xiang Wan and the others' alarm clocks.
The women walked to Su Chen's side, clinging softly to him.
"Brother, why do you want to wake up? Isn't it nice here? Isn't it nice to stay here with your sisters?"
"Here, we can satisfy all your desires."
"You can do whatever you want."
"Stay, please~"
"Brother, don't struggle, you won't wake up unless we let you go."
"Or, you can beg me, and if you beg me, I'll let you go, how about that?"
The women coaxed Su Chen sweetly.
Su Chen's blood pressure instantly spiked.
However, he wasn't tempted or aroused.
Rather, he realized he had inadvertently stepped into a deep pit.
Because he had fallen asleep so abruptly, he hadn't had time to inform the little paper doll.
He truly couldn't wake up on his own.
And not only that!
He tried to resist forcefully, but he found he couldn't activate the Soaring Flight skill,
nor could he activate the rules.
Even his physical strength was severely restricted.
Right now, his strength was even inferior to these women.
He could only let their hands roam over his body.
In this dream, everything was controlled by these women!
This couldn't go on!
Su Chen was getting anxious.
If Su Hongyi found out, and she got jealous,
wouldn't he be playing the panda again?
Su Chen quickly searched for a way to escape the dream.
He pinched himself, but it didn't hurt.
He tried to hypnotize himself to wake up, but that didn't work either.
He tried calling the paper doll, but he couldn't contact it in the dream.
Finally, Su Chen had to admit that he was truly trapped in the dream and couldn't get out!
And that wasn't the most dangerous part.
Even more absurd was that, facing this group of women, if he was even slightly careless and spoke, he would inevitably talk in his sleep,
thus violating the rules and being infected by the strange entity.
This was too damn unfair!
How could he possibly play like this?
Just as he was complaining, Su Chen suddenly froze, and a bright idea flashed through his mind.
Talking in his sleep?
Could he use sleep talking?!
If I…
Su Chen quickly stopped thinking.
No, he couldn't think any further; these women could read minds.
They could see through his thoughts.
All he could do was stop thinking and only at the most crucial moment, when the other party had no time to stop him, could he use his brain to come up with a way to break the deadlock.
