Seeing Chen Yuqian's poor complexion, Alex kindly walked over to support her. At close range, he smelled the faint scent of body wash and laundry detergent on the girl, unexpectedly without any perfume.
Furthermore, only now did Alex notice that Chen Yuqian was wearing very cheap clothes, and he didn't see her wearing any jewelry.
Young people who can go abroad generally aren't from poor families. This dream world's setting has a bit of a problem, setting up such a heroine.
However, this wasn't what Alex cared about. He asked with concern: "What's wrong?"
Chen Yuqian took a few breaths, her brows tightly furrowed, and said with difficulty: "It's my first time on a plane, and I feel a bit uncomfortable. I think I'm airsick."
"You sit down first. I'll go ask others if they have airsickness medicine."
Alex had a sudden inspiration, thinking this might be a task, so he came up with an idea.
Upon hearing this, Chen Yuqian smiled at him: "Thank you, it's lucky to have you."
After saying this, she broke free from Alex's hands and sat down.
At this moment, Alex felt that this female character had "come to life." She gently thanked him while simultaneously, and without a trace, refusing his support. This feeling of being kept at arm's length made him feel itchy in his heart.
Not wanting to pester Chen Yuqian, Alex then went to find others to ask if they had airsickness medicine. But very unfortunately, none of the passengers on the plane carried this very common medicine, and even the flight attendant showed an apologetic expression to Alex.
A bit speechless, Alex walked back. His hands inadvertently slipped into his pockets, and he felt a small bottle. He subconsciously took it out to look.
[Key item discovered: Airsickness medicine]
Alex: "..."
Looking at the line of text popping up in front of him, Alex was full of question marks. The sense of déjà vu in this plot was getting stronger and stronger. Was this airsickness medicine really not some strange thing?
Examining it carefully for a few moments, Alex said in a low voice: "It's getting more and more like it."
"What's getting more and more like it?"
A pleasant female voice sounded from beside him, though it gave one a very weak feeling.
Alex turned his head to look. Chen Yuqian was standing to the side, one hand supporting the seat, the other covering her mouth. Her face looked a bit uncomfortable, but she maintained a faint smile on her face, and a charm of a sickly beauty flowed from her.
Alex was stunned for a moment, then shook his head: "Nothing. Do you need to go to the restroom?" he asked.
"Yes." She revealed a rare, bashful expression and said in a low voice: "I feel... like I'm going to throw up, uh..."
She quickly covered her mouth tightly, appearing unable to hold it back anymore, "Sorry..."
Chen Yuqian rushed over directly and dived into the restroom. She didn't even close the door, and the sound of her vomiting could be heard from inside.
Alex looked down at the airsickness medicine in his hand, hesitated for a moment, and still followed, because Chen Yuqian's airsickness symptoms were a bit too severe.
Is this some kind of hint?
Chen Yuqian was vomiting messily. After she almost stopped, Alex said to her: "I found some airsickness medicine. Do you want to try it?"
Chen Yuqian, who had been frightened by the vomiting, took it upon hearing this. After examining it for a while and confirming it wasn't something strange, she poured out one pill and took it orally.
Alex watched her take the medicine, praying in his heart, hoping this medicine wouldn't screw him over. Wait, isn't this a dream? Why does he care so much?
He suddenly felt at ease.
"...Thank you, I feel much better."
With a flushed face, Chen Yuqian apologized to him in a low voice. As she was about to walk out, her foot accidentally slipped, and she fell straight down.
In her panic, she grabbed Alex's clothes. Alex didn't react in time either and fell down with her, landing on top of her. As luck would have it, the restroom door suddenly "bang" shut.
For a moment, an inexplicable atmosphere flowed between them.
The two were pressed closely together, one on top and one below, facing each other, their faint breathing intertwined.
Chen Yuqian was a bit dazed, looking at Alex with hazy almond-shaped eyes.
Alex also looked down at her. Both felt that the other's gaze seemed to have stickiness, making it impossible for them to look away.
At this moment, they seemed to have entered some strange state, involuntarily following the predetermined trajectory of fate to perform this wonderfully brilliant movie.
The distance between them was becoming closer and closer.
Time seemed to freeze at this very moment.
...
The stars shifted, and a night passed.
The enchanting dream left Alex dazed upon waking. In the dream, her silk robes had fallen away, and her fragrant, smooth skin was within his grasp. The girl's hands were like tender shoots, her skin like congealed fat, her neck like a longhorn beetle larva, her teeth like melon seeds, and her head like a moth's brow. She possessed endless, graceful charm and indescribable allure, making Alex feel as if he were still in a dream.
Subsequently, Alex felt his body constricted, as if wrapped by something. However, that thing didn't make him feel uncomfortable; on the contrary, it was soft and squishy like a body pillow, feeling plump and exceptionally comfortable when held in his arms.
Eh, plump?
He snapped back to his senses, sensing something was wrong. Opening his eyes, he saw Freya right in front of him, fast asleep while clinging to him. Floating above Freya's sleeping face was a treasure chest, and at the same time, a line of text appeared.
[Freya slept with you in her arms and feels exceptionally satisfied.]
Exceptionally satisfied?
This must be the overnight fee for sleeping with me, right?
Looking at that treasure chest with its mysterious aura, Alex thought strangely.
Having just woken up, he discovered Freya holding him while sleeping and instinctively wanted to push her away. But after seeing the chest, that thought changed to: Please, give me a lot more; I can still hold on!
He struggled to reach out and collect the chest, then freed himself from Freya's entanglement. Without even glancing at the beauty on the bed, he rushed out and ran into the bathroom.
What's the point of benefits when there are treasure chests? I want to open the treasure chest!
Alex sat on the toilet, and after a flash of light before his eyes, the chest opened, revealing the two items inside.
Alex's eyes lit up.
[Strong Physique]
[A popular song from another world, Note: Automatically imported to your phone]
Ignoring the song, Alex picked up the [Strong Physique] and couldn't wait to confirm its use.
A moment later, he felt his body filled with strength.
Closing his eyes to feel his newfound power, an exceptionally satisfied expression appeared on Alex's face. The shock he had received the night before seemed much more settled now.
Not only had the Strong Physique helped him get rid of his weakling body, but after the dream, Alex discovered that his mental state had also significantly improved. It seemed his Vibration Skill could now be maintained for about twenty seconds.
"But what's going on? If a chest appears just from sleeping with me, doesn't that mean I could open a chest every day if I accompany her every night?"
Alex fell into deep thought. He felt things wouldn't be that simple.
Recalling Freya's two treasure chest experiences, as well as Kiara's obsession, Alex vaguely understood something: helping them fulfill their wishes or resolving their obsessions would cause treasure chests to appear.
"What other wishes does Freya want to fulfill?"
Alex began to ponder.
