"Hmm~"
Listening to the strange voice in her ear, Funina's mood was turbulent and uneasy. Her long eyelashes trembled slightly. With a burst of conflicting emotions, she slowly opened her eyes.
The light in the room was dim, and everything was shrouded in a layer of unreality. She tilted her head slightly, trying to find the source of the sound. Her sight soon paused on Alechino, who was whispering to Lin Anyi beside her.
"Tsk, it's this bad woman again..."
Funina couldn't help but feel a little self-deprecating in her heart. Her voice was low and helpless, as if she was accustomed to this kind of scene:
"Can't you choose someone else?"
Although she was reluctant to admit it, every time this strange dream came, Alechino always appeared uninvited and became the protagonist Funina didn't want to see. She kept complaining in her heart. She was obviously disgusted with Alechino, yet the dream always chose her to play the heroine. If she had to have this kind of dream, at least change the candidate—even if it was her best friend Clorinde!
At this moment, Funina's mood was like a wind chime moved by the night wind, shaking gently with uneasiness.
The voices in her ears gradually became clearer. They were no longer hazy whispers, but real conversations. With curiosity in her heart, Funina slowly opened her eyes. However, as soon as her vision cleared, she felt a darkening in front of her eyes. Something blocked her sight.
She squinted her eyes and carefully peeked from the side of Alechino. In the dim moonlight, the outline of Alechino was extremely clear, and her skin looked particularly white in the night. At this moment, she was ruthlessly blocking Funina's view. Even in a dream, this bad woman came directly in front of her to show off… Isn't that a bit too much?
Funina half-closed her eyes, and there was a hint of anger in her beautiful purple eyes. Whether in reality or in dreams, this bad woman always seemed to appear at the most inappropriate times, challenging her patience and bottom line.
Just as she was accumulating dissatisfaction in her heart, Lin Anyi's voice suddenly sounded:
"Alechino, let's change places..."
There was obvious worry in his tone, as if he was concerned Funina would wake up.
Hearing the voice, Funina quickly narrowed her eyes, afraid her husband would find out she had woken up. At the same time, a hint of dissatisfaction flashed in Alechino's eyes. She had already done half of it, but now he wanted to change places? Was he so worried about his Funina?
"In that case..."
Alechino's eyes fell on Funina in front of her, and a trace of revenge suddenly appeared in her eyes. She took advantage of Lin Anyi's inattention and pressed the proud softness of her chest against Funina's face, showing the difference between the two.
"Hmm..."
Funina, who was squinting her eyes, couldn't help but groan. After realizing what had happened, facing such a provocation, she quietly clenched her fists. She was sure this was the most aggressive time for Alechino in the last seven or eight dreams!
When Lin Anyi saw this, he thought he had just used too much force and knocked Alechino down. He couldn't help but feel a little worried. But when he followed the faint moonlight, he saw that when Alechino fell, her chest pressed against Funina's face. His breathing suddenly stagnated.
He hurriedly disconnected from Alechino and then stepped forward, gently and quickly picking her up, trying not to attract Funina's attention.
Lin Anyi carefully checked Funina's condition. Only after confirming she was still asleep did he quietly breathe a sigh of relief. They quietly changed places, and Lin Anyi gently held Alechino's hands with both of his. He should have continued the previous action.
But at this moment, he suddenly noticed that Funina's little fists were clenched. This subtle movement made his body stiffen, and the uneasiness in his heart surged like a tide.
Alechino sensed Lin Anyi's abnormality, and her eyes slowly opened. With a little playfulness, she asked knowingly:
"Anyi, what's wrong with you... Do you feel uncomfortable?"
Lin Anyi's eyes flashed with complex emotions, and he made a dull sound in his throat. After hesitating for a moment, he spoke in a very low voice in her ear:
"Wake up..."
Over the years, he had become too familiar with Funina's various little habits. Even such a small sign was enough to prove that Funina had woken up from her sleep and was clearly aware of their conversation and behavior.
Didn't they agree that Funina would never wake up?
Didn't they agree to use her reputation as an executive of the Fatui to guarantee it?
But what's going on now?!
Lin Anyi wanted to question Alechino, but he couldn't. His mind was already spinning. Memories from the past flashed before his eyes—from their first meeting to the countless moments they had shared. Every detail was like a film being played at an accelerated speed, quickly passing through his consciousness.
These images were intertwined with happiness and pain, making it impossible for him to react simply. The pain and complex emotions in his heart were like a storm, and it felt as though he was facing the ultimate moment of his life, where all his memories surged at once.
Filled with these emotions, Lin Anyi turned around, preparing himself to face the anger and disappointment of Funina, bracing for a possible storm. However, to his surprise, Funina gently hugged him from behind.
"Fufu?" Lin Anyi's voice held a note of surprise and confusion.
He slowly turned around, searching her eyes for an answer.
Funina's eyes were complex and deep. She whispered,
"This time, I also want to participate."
Her voice was gentle but firm, revealing an unprecedented determination. In her mind, since she had determined that this was a dream, all actions seemed to be unconstrained, with no need to bear the consequences in the real world.
Moreover, in the past seven or eight dreams, she had almost always passively hidden in the corner, watching Lin Anyi being toyed with by Alechino, and then comforting herself alone. But in this "dream," she had finally gained the ability to act freely.
"Since this is a dream, I also want to try it," Funina continued, a hint of excitement in her voice as she explored the unknown. "This may be the first time since I got married that I can really satisfy you, Anyi."
At that moment, Funina seemed to hear a voice in her mind asking, "Will you win?"
In response, Funina spoke confidently,
"We will win!"
