This is a bizarre rule, isn't it? It's supposed to grant me many children and good fortune

Chapter 265 Sharing Dreams

Tang Xiaofu instinctively asked, "Father, do you have any ideas?"

Tang Yuan's gaze slowly swept over the faces of the three people in front of him, carrying a hint of mystery:

"I have... a very old book."

"The book describes a method that allows two people to enter the same dream at the same time."

"Dreaming together?" Elena couldn't help but exclaim in a low voice, her eyes suddenly ignited.

"That's right." Tang Yuan nodded, his voice steady and clear. "Dreams are the most direct path to the subconscious."

"Xiaorui's alternate personality is essentially a product of her subconscious being distorted by her obsessions."

"If only someone else could sneak into her dreams..."

He paused briefly, then said, word by word, "In the dream, 'eliminate' that alternate personality. Perhaps, this is the most efficient way to resolve Xiaorui's dual personality."

Elena's breathing suddenly quickened, her face filled with shock and unbelievable excitement.

She studies psychology, and this technique of "invading another person's subconscious and interfering with their personality structure" only exists in theory and science fiction movies.

If it could really happen...

"This...this is simply a revolutionary breakthrough in the field of psychology!" She was so excited that her voice trembled slightly.

"If successful, we will not only solve Xiaorui's problem, but we could even open up new directions for the entire field of psychotherapy!"

She looked at Tang Yuan, her eyes filled with fervent longing.

"Is there really such a method?"

Tang Yuan looked at her and scoffed, "I'm the headmistress; I never lie. Besides, this concerns my youngest daughter's health. How could I joke about something like this?"

Elena blushed slightly at his words, but still couldn't help asking:

"So... can I be present during the actual operation?"

"I want to document the entire process; this will be unprecedented research material!"

Tang Yuan nodded: "That's no problem. In fact, I'd like to ask for your help. After all, you're a professional in psychology."

"Then I'll enter Xiaorui's dream!" Tang Xiaofu said without hesitation.

However, Tang Yuan shook his head.

"no."

Tang Xiaofu was taken aback and blurted out, "Why?"

"This kind of deep dream connection requires the infiltrator to be completely unguarded with the target so that the mental frequencies of both parties can be synchronized," Tang Yuan explained.

"The relationship between you and Xiaorui is too complicated: there is a deep sisterly affection, but also a secret rivalry and competition, and even occasional... unconscious jealousy."

"These latent emotions will build invisible barriers in your dreams, preventing you from establishing a truly stable and pure connection."

His gaze finally settled on Lin Feng.

"Therefore, the only suitable candidate left is Lin Feng."

Lin Feng was suddenly startled, his fingertips tightening silently.

"But I..." he hesitated, "Can I kill that alternate personality? After all, it's a being with a strong obsession."

"There's no need to worry too much about the balance of power," Tang Yuan interrupted him. "Once you enter the dream, the power of that book will materialize in some form, becoming 'something' around you."

"It is your 'weapon' against that remnant soul. Find it, understand it, and use it wisely."

Elena chimed in at the opportune moment: "If you encounter an insurmountable situation in a dream, you can forcibly interrupt the dream connection by 'falling,' instantly returning your consciousness to reality."

Lin Feng took a deep breath, firmly imprinting these two key pieces of information into his mind—

Random weapon, save your life if you fall!

He nodded, his eyes gradually hardening: "I understand. So... when do we begin?"

"Tomorrow night," Tang Yuan said, rubbing his chin. "Dr. Elena needs time to thoroughly figure out the specific method of dream co-creation."

"Can we start researching now?" Elena asked immediately, her eyes burning with academic fervor.

"Okay." Tang Yuan nodded and walked towards the door first. "Let's go to my office."

He walked to the door, then stopped and turned back to look at Tang Xiaofu and Lin Feng:

"Xiaofu, it's getting late. Take Lin Feng back to the staff dormitory area."

"The park at night... isn't exactly friendly to them."

Tang Xiaofu nodded and replied, "Okay, I understand."

........................

Stepping out of the administration building, a cool night breeze hits you.

A bright, clear moon hangs high in the sky, casting a silvery glow that drapes the park's scattered buildings and winding paths in a hazy veil.

The two walked side by side, initially in silence, with only the sound of their footsteps echoing in the quiet night.

Lin Feng was still processing the daunting task that was about to begin, while Tang Xiaofu seemed to be deep in thought, her profile appearing somewhat aloof in the moonlight.

Suddenly, a few faint, yellowish-green specks of light floated up from the bushes by the roadside, like falling stardust—fireflies.

Lin Feng's heart stirred slightly, and he immediately activated "Call of the Wild".

The next second, something amazing happened.

Those scattered points of light seemed to receive a silent rallying cry, and more fireflies emerged from the grass and leaves.

They no longer drifted aimlessly, but gathered into a small, flowing river of light, all converging towards the sky above the path in front of Tang Xiaofu.

The light points danced lightly, sometimes transforming into a hazy, pulsating heart shape.

Sometimes it would mischievously scatter and recombine, piecing together a smiling face with curved eyebrows and eyes, outlined by tiny specks of light.

Tang Xiaofu paused slightly, a hint of surprise flashing in her eyes.

She looked up at the abrupt yet dreamlike scene before her, and then, as if sensing something, she suddenly turned to look at Lin Feng beside her.

Under the moonlight, Lin Feng was looking at her, a hint of smugness on his face that he couldn't quite hide.

"Did you do this?" Tang Xiaofu asked, her voice softer than usual.

Lin Feng immediately shook his head, feigning a serious and innocent expression:

"It wasn't me. It's probably because the moonlight is so beautiful tonight, and Deputy Director Tang is so pretty, that even the fireflies couldn't resist coming to fawn over her."

As soon as he finished speaking, the atmosphere froze for a moment in an eerie silence.

A slight warmth uncontrollably crept up to Tang Xiaofu's ears.

She quickly turned her head, avoiding his gaze, deliberately putting on a stern face, and reprimanded him in her usual cold tone:

"Smooth-talking! Looks like you're not tired enough from work during the day, you still have time to show off like this..."

"Hurry up, don't waste time."

[Ding! Tang Xiaofu's favorability towards the host increases by 10]

[Current Affection Level: 65 / 100]

Upon hearing the system notification, Lin Feng's smile deepened.

He didn't say anything more and followed Tang Xiaofu's footsteps.

Studio:

"Brother Feng, you really know your stuff! I give this atmosphere a perfect score! It's like a live tutorial, guys, take notes!"

"Seriously, buddy, how do you control fireflies? My cat won't even do a backflip when I ask it to. It's so frustrating!"

"Sisters, look at Vice Principal Tang's ears! They're all red! Forget about being a cool and aloof older sister, this is totally an adorable, innocent contrast!"

"Both sisters have fallen for you, Brother Feng, don't favor one over the other, just take them both!"

"Do you think Tang Yuan would break Feng Ge's legs if he found out?"

"Not necessarily. What if they're particularly open-minded and happy to marry both of their daughters to Lin Feng?"

"I can't even imagine how Brother Feng's four wives would react if he brought those two beauties home!!"
