If a person can have the right dream at the right time, that is a great fortune.
— Li Yunhui, Founder of Li Li Games

Li Yunhui rarely dreamed in his life.

He dreamed more when he was young: going abroad with his father, becoming a legendary soldier after growing up, the Li family business flourishing and becoming world-renowned under his leadership… he had dreamed all these.

But as he grew older, his dreams gradually decreased.

Not until today did Li Yunhui unexpectedly have a dream again.

He stood stiffly at the gate of a strange middle school.

This was a domestic middle school.

As the familiar school dismissal bell rang, voices saying “Goodbye, Teacher” rose one after another in the teaching building. Then, a few scattered figures appeared at the bottom of the teaching building, running wildly towards him. Immediately after, a flood of students in standard athletic uniforms rushed out.

The flood washed past him.

The campus gradually emptied of people.

Only then did Li Yunhui realize who was in this dream—

An overly familiar head slowly appeared at the bottom of the teaching building.

A heavy backpack pressed on overly frail shoulders, as if it would crush them the next second.

Li Yunhui subconsciously held his breath, his eyes slowly widening, staring fixedly at this thin figure.

He didn’t know why Shu Yun, who was obviously attending middle school in Country D, would be attending school domestically in the dream. But he didn’t care about these details.

At this moment, in his entire mind and entire field of vision, the only person he could notice was this one—

Shu Yun…

His Shu Yun!!!

Just then, two boys suddenly approached Shu Yun from the side.

They put their arms around Shu Yun’s shoulders from left and right, laughing and joking, shoving the Shu Yun in the middle back and forth.

Li Yunhui clearly saw Shu Yun’s expression become bewildered from the moment they approached, letting the two on his left and right put their arms around him, talk to him, and shove him around without fighting back in the slightest.

Li Yunhui exploded instantly.

How could he tolerate such a thing? He couldn’t tolerate it in reality, and even less so in a dream!

Li Yunhui immediately rushed into the school gate. The guard angrily shouted “Hey…!” and immediately tried to stop him, but he moved agilely, easily dodging the guard and rushing into the school!

He slammed fiercely into the boy on Shu Yun’s left, knocking him three or five meters away, then scooped Shu Yun behind him with one arm and kicked the boy on the right in the stomach!

The boy on the right turned pale instantly, stumbled back a few steps, and stared at Li Yunhui in shock: “You… You are Li Yunhui from the High School Division!”

Li Yunhui didn’t know about any High School Division or Middle School Division.

He shielded Shu Yun behind him and sneered at this person: “Does it matter who I am? Try touching Shu Yun again?!”

Only then did the guards finally rush over.

Three guards surrounded them in a semi-circle. The guard whom Li Yunhui had bypassed pointed at him angrily and questioned: “Li Yunhui, why are you here again? How many times have I told you, the High School Division and Middle School Division are not connected. If you want to pick up your brother, wait at the gate of the Middle School Division. Don’t just barge in! Next time you dare to barge into the Middle School Division again, don’t blame me for telling your homeroom teacher!”

When had Li Yunhui ever feared the threat of telling the teacher?

Let alone telling the teacher, he wasn’t even afraid of telling the parents!

He protected Shu Yun tightly, let out a prolonged “Hoh,” and sneered: “What? My own brother is being hit on and shoved around right under my nose, suffering grievances. You gatekeepers don’t come to stop it, but I, as his older brother, can’t come up to stop it? If you want to tell my homeroom teacher I barged into the school, I’ll go to the principal and report your negligence in work!”

The guard flushed red instantly. He was furious and pointed at him: “And you call yourself the Student Council President of the High School Division. Is this how you set an example for your juniors?!”

Li Yunhui sneered and was about to retort again.

But just then, his sleeve was gently tugged, and a soft, warm voice sounded behind him.

“Brother, it’s okay. These two seniors just wanted to make friends with me. Brother, don’t be so angry with them.”

Hearing the soft, gentle voice he hadn’t heard for years, Li Yunhui’s vision blurred almost instantly.

Shu Yun…

His Shu Yun… was right behind him now…

Shu Yun… whether in reality or in the dream, was always such a soft-hearted and kind person.

Shu Yun was still trying to persuade him.

The two boys on the side also came to their senses, took the opportunity to back down, and apologized one after another.

Seeing this, the guard stopped talking about telling the teacher and tried to smooth things over.

Li Yunhui closed his eyes tightly and took a deep breath.

He was somewhat reluctant, but still relented: “Since Shu Yun said so, apologize to Shu Yun, and we’ll consider this matter passed. But if I find out next time that you are pestering Shu Yun…”

The two students apologized immediately, one of them smiling awkwardly: “Wouldn’t dare, wouldn’t dare.”

Li Yunhui sneered. Fortunately, he didn’t want to waste precious dream time on other people. With a wave of his hand, he let them go.

Then, Li Yunhui turned around with his heart pounding like a drum, took Shu Yun’s backpack, held Shu Yun’s hand, and whispered: “Shu Yun, let’s go, let’s go home first.”

He quickly led Shu Yun away from the school.

Only then, hearing the whispers of some onlookers eating melons outside the school gate, did he realize the setting of the dream—it turned out he was a second-year high school student in the High School Division opposite, and Shu Yun was a first-year student who just entered the Middle School Division this year.

Counting on his fingers, the age gap between him and Shu Yun had actually been severely reduced by two years!

But these things were not important to him.

With the driver in the car, Li Yunhui didn’t want to show too much of his emotions in front of others. So throughout the car ride, he could only ask simply about his brother’s situation.

He asked how his brother’s health was recently, if he felt uncomfortable anywhere? Asked how he was adapting to school, if any teachers or classmates bullied him? Asked if he could keep up with the courses, and if he was happy at school?

Shu Yun was a very well-behaved child.

The Shu Yun back then was very well-behaved, and the little Shu Yun now, only twelve years old, was of course even more well-behaved.

Shu Yun answered his questions slowly, one by one.

Then his eyes curved into crescents, he opened his arms, straightened his back, gave him a gentle hug, and said: “Brother, everyone at school is very nice to Shu Yun. They know Brother is my brother, so no one dares to bully me.”

He hadn’t had his brother’s hug for a long, long time either.

Light, soft, his brother’s hug.

Li Yunhui took a deep breath, restrainedly touched the back of Shu Yun’s head, and said seriously: “Like those two people putting their arms around your shoulders and shoving you left and right just now, is that also called being nice to you? …They were taking advantage of you, they had ill intentions towards you. Shu Yun must not be deceived by them!”

Shu Yun listened quietly to his words, bent his eyes, and said: “I won’t, Brother, I won’t.”

Li Yunhui couldn’t wait any longer.

Finally, the car returned home. He led Shu Yun straight to the bedroom.

Then closing the door, putting his brother’s backpack aside, Li Yunhui pulled his brother to the bedside, sat on the edge of the bed, and hugged him tightly.

Li Yunhui could no longer control his emotions, his chest heaving rapidly and violently. Afraid that his bloodshot eyes would scare Shu Yun, he closed his eyes tightly, rubbing his cheek forcefully against his brother’s side face, as if confirming the temperature and vitality of his loved one in his arms in this way.

But Shu Yun seemed a bit scared by him.

Shu Yun was extremely worried, his fingertips touching his temples: “Brother?”

“It’s okay, Shu Yun, it’s okay…”

Li Yunhui took a deep breath and answered hoarsely: “Brother just misses you a bit, a hug… will be fine.”

Li Yunhui didn’t know how long he hugged his brother.

Any length seemed understandable.

After all… his beloved brother had left him for full seven years.

Until a disturbing voice finally came from outside: “Young Masters, dinner is ready!”

Li Yunhui’s fingers, stiff from hugging, moved reluctantly.

He opened his eyes, looking heavily at the young boy in his arms.

The boy was extremely quiet. Seeing him finally let go, he raised his hand, patted his head, and coaxed softly: “Is Brother in a bad mood today? Tomorrow is Saturday, where does Brother want to go play? Shu Yun will go with Brother, okay?”

All of Li Yunhui’s bad emotions caused by memories melted away instantly.

Li Yunhui said in a low voice: “Okay. Tomorrow, and the day after, Brother will take Shu Yun out to play.”

However, Li Yunhui didn’t say everything.

Before that, there was one most important thing.

Early Saturday morning, Li Yunhui used going out to play as an excuse and took his brother to the hospital first.

He had the doctor give Shu Yun a thorough cancer screening. After confirming there were no pre-cancerous symptoms, he let out a long sigh of relief, almost collapsing into the chair on the spot.

The doctor was extremely puzzled by his behavior: “Little Li is only twelve years old. The incidence rate is not high in this age group. Why do you insist on him checking these? Has Little Li shown any symptoms recently?”

Symptoms, of course, there were none yet.

Li Yunhui couldn’t explain this to the doctor.

He brushed off the topic, didn’t stay long at the hospital, and quickly left with Shu Yun.

Shu Yun was really a very well-behaved child.

Li Yunhui thought.

Clearly, Shu Yun was also puzzled by this issue, the confusion in his eyes so thick it was about to spill over, but until they left the hospital, Shu Yun didn’t ask him a single word.

Li Yunhui could brush off the doctor, but he didn’t want to brush off Shu Yun.

He paused slightly in front of the hospital, seriously turned Shu Yun towards himself, bent down slightly, and said to Shu Yun: “Brother brought you for these checkups because I hope Shu Yun can live healthily forever. Live to twenty, thirty, fifty, eighty, a hundred years old, free of disease and disaster, healthy and strong. Shu Yun can understand Brother, right?”

The confusion in Shu Yun’s eyes dispersed, replaced by a soft smile: “So Brother was just worried about me.”

Li Yunhui smiled: “Ay, see, as expected, my Li Yunhui’s brother is the most considerate and understanding good brother in the world!”

The atmosphere lightened up instantly.

Li Shuyun could finally ask expectantly: “Brother, Brother, then where are we going to play next? I remember Brother liked to race some cars with your friends before. Does Brother want to take Shu Yun along?”

The smile Li Yunhui had just raised froze on his cheek.

The corner of his eye twitched slightly, and he said immediately: “No, racing cars isn’t fun at all, not worth Shu Yun trying. Today Brother is taking you to play something exciting. Is Shu Yun afraid of ghosts? A super large immersive haunted house opened in the Imperial Capital recently. Does Shu Yun dare to challenge it?”
