15 minutes later, Chen Yekai, Zhou Sheng, and Yu Hao were in front of the five-star hotel's garden lobby, with a table filled with food in front of them.

Yu Hao, "There's so much to eat for breakfast!"

Zhou Sheng, "It costs 168 yuan per person after all. Eat ba, don't hold back, just treat it as a gesture of generosity at his expense."

Yu Hao, "You still remember that..."

Chen Yekai only took a cup of coffee and looked down at his phone quietly. Yu Hao knew that he was reading Ryuusei's letter. Finally, Chen Yekai put his phone down, rubbed his face, and finally looked a bit more energetic.

"I'm sorry." Chen Yekai said, "For causing you guys so much trouble. It was all my fault; that was too dangerous."

Zhou Sheng casually replied, "It was a misjudgment on our part too, can't blame you for that."

For Zhou Sheng, this was the most serious and potentially perilous miscalculation that he has ever made. They had not anticipated that Lin Xun would wield so much power in Chen Yekai's dream, and certainly not to the extent that he could suppress the sun in his conscious world. In the end, they were nearly defeated by Lin Xun and barely escaped with their lives. Fortunately, the three had joined forces and together, they overcame the many obstacles that they had faced. But this incident also added a very real precedent for both of them.

"Now that I think about it." Zhou Sheng said to Yu Hao, "My Dad's and Mum's dreams are nothing in comparison."

"Oh yeah!" Yu Hao snapped out of his reverie; compared to Chen Yekai's Chichén Itzá, Shi Ni's lighthouse and the Great Wall all seemed like a tutorial mode for newbies.

"There will be countless things to overcome in the future." Chen Yekai looked out the restaurant's window. The sunlight spilled onto the hotel's garden, "But I've already been reborn. Even though I was confined within a shell, I still thought that I was the king of the infinite universe."

Yu Hao began laughing, and Zhou Sheng said, "Think about what to do next ba? Laozi's eligibility for the cycling race hasn't been settled yet."

Chen Yekai suddenly became much more invigorated. He took his phone out and said, "Leave it to me. If the two of you......need me to do anything, just let me know?"

"You don't have to do anything." Zhou Sheng said, "Just answer a few of my questions. From the first day we met, you've always helped us like it was your duty to do so. So don't treat us like outsiders."

"I know." The corners of Chen Yekai's lips curved up slightly, and he said while lost in thought, "Okay, I won't treat you guys that way."

Zhou Sheng signaled to Yu Hao, which meant 'What do you want to ask? Ask your questions first?'

Yu Hao waited until the waiters had cleared their plates. He took a sip of his coffee and thought for a moment before saying, "I don't have anything in particular that I want to ask. But I think, Ryuusei had something he wanted me to convey to you."

Chen Yekai's eyebrows rose slightly. Zhou Sheng said, "Since it's something Ryuusei said, then the two of you should talk about it in private when you're free ba."

Chen Yekai suddenly said, "Okay. I also have something I want to explain clearly to Yu Hao."

"Un." Zhou Sheng answered, satisfied.

Yu Hao, "???"

"Then, Zhou Sheng, what do you want to ask?" Chen Yekai asked.

"I'm thinking about how to express my doubts." Zhou Sheng said, "We've already clarified a lot of things that happened in the past, but Kaikai, do you have anything else you need to apologize for? Aside from having your psychological state meddled with by Lin Xun."
