"What the fuck?!"
He looked around and what he saw stunned him. It was an unknown room, he saw a few beds if you call them a bed. It was a few planks tied together and hay lying on top. There was also an old wardrobe and some random stuff that he didn't care about.
After standing from the bed he walked out of the room. After pushing the door he saw the room that looked like a combination of a dining room and kitchen.
Near the stove, he saw a beautiful middle-aged woman and thought "Who is she?" He walked to her but stepped on an old plank
*skreeee*
A middle-aged woman turned around and said "Xing'er what are you doing here, you have to rest." Why would I? He thought. And who even is she? I'm not sure, but she said Xing'er. Ain't this shit added to a lover's name or family members? But I'm not sure, I've read some novels but Chinese is really complicated. "And who are you? What am I doing here? And why did call me Xing'er?"
Tears started running down her cheek. It stunned me and then my body moved on its own. My eyes were getting watery too. After a few steps, I hugged her and said "Why are you crying?"
She looked me in the eyes and then "Don't you really know who I am?" I shook my head "I guess you hit your head tough enough, but it doesn't matter. I can see it in your eyes, you are still you" she sighed and then continued "Well my name is Qian Lifen and I'm your mom" she said and smiled.
"Mom? What are you talking about?" You ain't my mom I have only one mom, she even scolded me yesterday. Wait a minute how do I even know that. And then it hit him. Holly shit Chinese names. Could it be? Could it be a dream? Dream about fucking cultivation world? How dope would that be? No, no, no I must calm down. His mind was running on total overclock. "Ahh" she sighed again "I guess I can't blame you." When she said that I could see her sad face. But after a few seconds, she spoke again as if nothing happened "Eat this and go rest, you're still not in the best shape, we'll talk when the rest of the family comes back"
I took a plate and started eating. It was a pretty simple dish consisting of bread and stew made from carrots, tomatoes, potatoes, and other things. Despite that it was maybe not delicious, but still very good. You could see that person preparing this dish put a lot of heart into it. And that's supposed to be my mom. Sigh, I don't even know what to think about it. Whatever I'll go to sleep. I ate everything, washed my plate, and thanked my 'mom'. After that, I went to my room. Well, I guessed it wasn't just my room, because there were a few more beds, five to be precise. I lay on my bed or so I guessed because I was lying on it before and started thinking about all this.
"Okay, so I'm 90% that's a dream, but if I know that doesn't that mean it's a lucid dream? I've read somewhere that if you are aware of this you can do anything you want. Let me test this." And then he starts brainstorming. He first wanted to check if this was a cultivation world as he thought.
"I want the best cultivation technique."

"Fuck! Could I've been wrong?" After ten minutes he gave up. Okay, okay maybe it's not the cultivation world but sill I shan't give up.
What's next? Oh, I know " Alohomora betch" He thought about opening the wardrobe and again

He didn't even last five minutes "Fuck!!! This stupid dream! Okay, calm down" Breathe in out, in... out. Maybe I've tried too hard. Yes, that should be it. I should have tried something much simpler. But what should I do? After a few seconds "I know." He looked at the hay on his bed and started imaging that it moves.
5 seconds...
30 seconds...
And...
"Arghhh, FUCK IT! This stupid dream, what's the point of it if I can't do shit!" After a few seconds, I heard hurried footsteps, and then the door opened. "Xing'er are you okay?" I looked at her and said "Yeah I'm fine." The silence fell in the room and then "Are you sure? Your scream was loud enough that I heard it. Mom is worried about you." As if I could tell her that I'm furious because of that stupid dream. "Mom, I'm really fine. Don't worry about me" I saw her heart-warming smile and listened to her "Okay just go to sleep and rest well." I smiled back and said "okay"
After that, I went to sleep, but before that I thought, maybe when I woke up I won't be in this stupid dream. And then my eyes closed.
==============================
Phew, I was able to write another chapter. I'm pretty proud of myself. What can I say mc is a mirror copy of me because I'm lazy af. Last time I forget to ask if switching from 3rd person to 1st person was even readable, but I guess I will find out later if someone will ever read this novel. As always I'm sorry for all my mistakes, well I can't say it's that bad, at least I know what is your and what is you're (I hope). But I know it is not perfect, well I guess nothing is perfect, but you could get pretty close to it. I've also found out that my word bank is pretty poor and I'm repeating a lot of words. I can only hope it will be better in the future. Have a nice day and lmk about your opinion.
