As a lawyer, Fu Nanzhi had always possessed clear logical thinking.
"Whether it's real or not, a simple verification will tell."
The dream scene felt too real for Fu Nanzhi to ignore. After a brief recollection, she remembered a small incident that could help verify her suspicion.
Fu Nanzhi used to have a necklace she loved dearly, which suddenly disappeared one day. She searched for it extensively but couldn't find it.
After time passed, she assumed she had lost it carelessly, but during her relationship with Shen Yi, he somehow managed to find it.
Fu Nanzhi got out of bed, her silky nightgown flowing like water.
She approached her vanity table and crouched down, calming her nervous heart. Carefully moving the cabinet, she found a white gold necklace lying quietly in its place, just as expected.
Fu Nanzhi immediately picked it up, clasping it in her palms and holding it to her chest.
"How wonderful, it's all real..."
Fu Nanzhi's eyes were full of hope, and her heart brimmed with endless joy, all culminating in those simple words of gratitude.
Taking out her phone, Fu Nanzhi called her mother with an anxious heart.
When the call connected, hearing the familiar voice made her feel a surge of emotion rising from her chest to her nose, and her eyes instantly reddened.
"Mom..."
Possibly detecting her daughter's choked voice, Fu's Mother Ji Shulan quickly asked:
"What's wrong, Nanzhi? Did someone bully you?"
Fu Nanzhi sniffled, blinked her eyes, and hurriedly replied with a smile,
"It's nothing, Mom. I just had a dream and missed you."
Her mother sighed in relief and responded with a laugh, "Must have been a nightmare. Don't listen to your father - come home whenever you want, and I'll cook your favorite dishes."
"Mm-hmm."
The mother and daughter chatted briefly before hanging up.
Fu Nanzhi actually wanted to tell her mother that it wasn't a nightmare, but rather the most perfect dream.
After composing herself, Fu Nanzhi went to the bathroom to freshen up.
Perhaps because the dream had lasted so long, she had woken up late today - looking at the clock, it was already past ten.
However, her work as a legal consultant wasn't particularly demanding, and being new at Tiancheng Corporation meant no one really supervised her, so being a bit late wasn't a big issue.
Walking into her closet, she removed her nightgown, revealing her beautifully curved figure.
Her fingers glided across the hangers, and Fu Nanzhi smiled knowingly, remembering the scene of their first meeting.
After some hesitation, she chose a dark-colored dress suit.
Fu Nanzhi only knew that Shen Yi had been transferred from the advertising department, but she wasn't sure of the exact date.
Not wanting to change anything about their first meeting, she chose to wear her usual outfit.
After dressing completely, Fu Nanzhi approached her vanity and picked up her unfashionable thick black-framed glasses.
She actually didn't need glasses, but wore them to avoid unnecessary attention.
Even so, she never lacked admirers, though she hadn't been interested in such matters before.
Driving out of the garage, since she was already late, Fu Nanzhi decided to make a detour to an optical shop.
One could say that their relationship changed because of a pair of glasses.
He was so clever to have figured out her face blindness and come up with such a solution.
He neither made a fuss about it nor showed fake sympathy, but quietly helped increase her ability to recognize people.
This was the key reason why Fu Nanzhi had initially developed feelings for him.
Parking and entering the optical shop, Fu Nanzhi directly stated her requirements to the clerk.
After the clerk finished the preparation, she walked out with the glasses case.
"Hmph, you're mine and no one can take you away."
In her dream, Shen Yi had been quite popular in the department - good-looking with an agreeable personality, many young women liked to gather around him.
Although Fu Nanzhi had confidence in both herself and Shen Yi, she couldn't help feeling anxious.
These glasses were her prepared "golden headband" - she wasn't the same person as before, and marking her territory was the right thing to do.
The previous regular glasses that Shen Yi had hastily gotten made were of poor quality and broke shortly after.
This time, Fu Nanzhi decided to get him a good pair.
After parking the car and tucking the glasses case into her bag, Fu Nanzhi entered the elevator.
Walking into the department, she was immediately greeted.
"Good morning, Lawyer Fu."
Fu Nanzhi paused, quickly assessed the person, and responded smoothly,
"Good morning to you too, Little Li."
Thanks to Shen Yi, she probably wouldn't have recognized them before.
Walking down the long corridor, Fu Nanzhi discreetly glanced at that familiar workstation.
As expected, it was empty.
"He probably hasn't been transferred yet..." Fu Nanzhi thought to herself.
Opening her office door, Fu Nanzhi sat down and put her bag aside.
Although only a day had passed, the arrangement of items on her desk gave her an oddly unfamiliar feeling.
She casually flipped through the documents on her desk, all brought by the legal intern before her arrival.
Some needed her review, others her signature.
Taking the glasses case from her bag, Fu Nanzhi opened the drawer and placed it in a corner.
A familiar notebook caught her eye.
Fu Nanzhi picked it up and opened it, finding pages filled with detailed descriptions of various colleagues' characteristics - all written by her previously.
Looking at it now, Fu Nanzhi couldn't help but smile; she no longer needed it.
She now knew everyone in the department.
Though the notebook was no longer necessary, Fu Nanzhi didn't throw it away, instead keeping it in the drawer as a memento.
"I'll just wait quietly for him to appear..."
While driving, Fu Nanzhi had considered going to find Shen Yi directly, but feared startling him.
After much thought, she decided not to change 'history' and let things progress naturally.
Reliving their first meeting seemed like an enjoyable experience to Fu Nanzhi.
...
Finally having quit his job, Shen Yi felt completely unburdened.
Since graduating from university, he had been working almost non-stop for over two years.
Except for Chinese New Year, he barely had time to return home, and even regular rest days were sporadic.
In a less busy month, he might get three or four days off, but during busy periods, he might not even get one day off in a month.
After working intensely for nearly two years without any career advancement or prospects for promotion, Shen Yi suddenly gained clarity.
Throwing his bag aside, Shen Yi lay back on his bed, rolling around comfortably.
After resting his eyes for a while, he took out his phone and left all work groups, discussion groups, and miscellaneous groups.
Then he uninstalled work apps and DingTalk, executing a smooth series of actions in one go.
After checking his now clean phone, Shen Yi finally felt at ease.
He hadn't felt much when initially quitting, but now after deleting all the software, he felt truly relieved.
It was as if a weight he'd been carrying for over two years had finally been lifted, and he no longer had to worry about his phone suddenly ringing.
It seemed all his ring tone anxiety had been cured in an instant.
This kind of lightness and freedom was something outsiders couldn't understand.
After lying there for a while, he started feeling hungry.
"Time to eat! Let's go out for something good."
Shen Yi flipped over and stood up, not wanting to order takeout at home anymore.
Now that he had time and some money, he wanted to try all the foods he couldn't afford or didn't have time for before!

nd fell into a coma while saving his younger sister from an out-of-control car. He became a vegetable. No one knew that his consciousness had crossed into a world of cultivation. Over the course of sixty years, he began as the lowest kind of mine slave, struggling to survive amid mountains of corpses and seas of blood. By sheer chance, he eventually obtained the complete memories of a fallen Immortal King. Alchemy, medicine, formations, feng shui, physiognomy, artifact forging… Every great inheritance of the cultivation world was now his. But when he opened his eyes again, he discovered that ten full years had passed in the modern world. To pay for his treatment, his father had sold the family’s shop and house, leaving himself covered in lasting injuries and illness. His mother had cared for him day and night, and more than half of her hair had already turned white. His younger sister, who had been only fifteen back then, was now twenty-five. To help repay the family’s debts, she had been forced to lower her head and put on a smiling face in places of glittering lights and endless revelry. Only then did Chen Xuan understand that what he had lost was not merely ten years. He had lost the life his entire family was meant to have. The good news was that he had brought back the memories of an Immortal King’s entire lifetime. The bad news was that his soul had returned alone—his cultivation had not come with him. Spiritual energy was scarce, resources were depleted, and the modern world still had firearms, surveillance, capital, and laws. If he wanted to protect his family, break free from everyone’s control, and become truly invincible beneath the heavens, he would have to start all over again.
