Chapter 159 Taking Dreams as Horses
"Your package has arrived at the community parcel point. Please come and pick it up."
Upon seeing this message, Yi Mengwei immediately got up, opened the door, and went up the stairs to the community's express delivery station.
He walked briskly forward, full of anticipation, and when he encountered people along the way, he would only nod hurriedly and then run away quickly.
"What's going on? How can it run so fast?"
Ignoring the curious glances from those around him, Yi Mengwei was filled with anticipation.
When he rushed to the courier station, the courier staff saw that he was panting heavily and thought it was some valuable package, but when they looked, they found it was just a box of fruit.
"Here you are, your package."
"Okay," Yi Mengwei took the box and signed for it, then carried the heavy box of fruit home.
After all that back and forth, he was exhausted and out of breath, even though he took the elevator back at a certain time.
But he couldn't worry about that for the moment and opened the package first.
The package contained grapes wrapped in foam. The delivery process was very thoughtful; the grapes were undamaged and still fresh. The vines hadn't turned yellow, and the grapes were very shiny.
Full of anticipation, I picked the grapes, carefully washed them, and then couldn't wait to taste them.
"It's so delicious, it's amazing! The flavor is incredible!"
His eyes lit up; it was so delicious, how could anyone resist?
His eyes were filled with amazement, and he ate one after another, unable to stop.
He only stopped after eating most of the skewers.
This gives you the opportunity to observe other aspects of the grapes' condition.
He examined it carefully, and then looked at the grape testing certificate on the official website. "Hmm, although they taste good, they don't seem to be any different from ordinary grapes."
All I can say is that the taste is really excellent, and it looks very high-end. It's worth the 50 yuan. Now the only thing I'm looking forward to is its sleep function. If it really helps with sleep, then the 50 yuan is definitely a bargain.
He looked it over but didn't find anything unusual. He glanced at the time and realized it was already past 2 p.m. Then a thought struck him.
"Why don't we take a nap?"
Yi Mengwei has a habit of taking afternoon naps, especially after suffering from insomnia. He goes to bed very late at night and wakes up even later during the day, sometimes sleeping straight into the afternoon.
Occasionally, when I have something to do, I can take a nap at noon after I get back from work, but I don't sleep comfortably and it doesn't last long.
Thinking about all this, I simply went back to my room and planned to go to sleep.
As he lay in bed, he thought he might as well use the projector to show a movie; it would be a good way to pass the time even if he couldn't sleep.
So he connected his phone to the projector and selected a movie to watch.
At first, he was engrossed in the movie and watched it with great focus.
He would even laugh occasionally, but as he went on, he felt sleepiness creeping in.
He was very excited when he first felt sleepy, because he could finally fall asleep.
He dared not make any rash moves, and slowly closed his eyes, hoping to fall asleep as the drowsiness took hold.
He had similar experiences on many previous nights, but unfortunately, every time he felt sleepy, his body wanted to sleep but his mind was still very awake, so he still couldn't fall asleep.
This time, he succumbed to sleep and closed his eyes. Then, for a second or two, the only sounds in the room were the movie's voice and soft snoring.
Around 5 p.m., the parents, who dream of pursuing their dreams, opened the door and came in.
"Little horse, little horse," the mother horse called twice, but received no response, which was a bit strange.
"What's going on? I remember he usually responds when I call him."
Mr. Ma glanced around the living room but didn't see anyone. "Could he be working in the study or playing on his phone in the bedroom?"
"I don't know," Ma's mother shook her head. "I haven't cooked dinner yet. I'll go cook first."
If I'm home in the afternoon, I usually help prepare dinner so my parents can come home and eat together.
But today, Ma's mother didn't see the food was ready, so she decided to cook it herself.
"Okay, you go do it. I'll go check the study."
As he spoke, Mr. Ma walked towards the study. When he opened the door, he didn't see anyone inside.
He was puzzled for a moment, then turned back towards the bedroom.
When he got to the bedroom, he approached the door and was about to knock when he heard the sound of a movie playing inside.
"Oh, so you're watching a movie." Mr. Ma said, putting his hand down. He thought it was good for his son to watch a movie, and he would call him when it was time to eat.
He wandered into the living room, intending to grab a beer from the refrigerator, but when he opened it, he found a huge bunch of grapes stuffed full.
"Wow, these grapes are huge."
Mr. Ma found it intriguing, so he picked out a string of them, cracked them open, washed them, and tasted them.
He carried a bunch of grapes into the kitchen, and his mother saw them and asked, "When did you buy these grapes? They're so big, they don't look cheap."
In her memory, large grape varieties like these are usually very expensive on the market.
Mr. Ma shook his head. "I didn't buy it; my son must have. I'll wash it and taste it. It should be pretty good."
When Ma's mother heard that her son had bought it, she didn't say anything, only telling Ma's father to wash more so they could eat together later.
"This is enough. Look, one of these is as big as an egg. You'll be full after eating a few."
Ma's mother shook her head, "If you feel full from eating fruit, that's called being full from water. How can the situation be the same? You still need to eat. Eat less, and then eat fruit after you finish your meal."
"Okay, I'll wash up and eat after dinner. I'll just taste it now."
As Ma Fu was talking, he finished washing the grapes and picked one up, handing it to his mother first.
Ma's mother took a bite, and the two of them were immediately stunned.
"This taste"
"That's amazing!"
Ma's mother had eaten some expensive fruits before, and she did admit that they tasted much better than fruits of ordinary price, but none of them had ever made her feel the quality of top-quality fruit like this.
The rich aroma and sweet taste of grapes are unforgettable.
Mr. Ma exclaimed, "They taste so good! I've never eaten such delicious grapes before."
The two of them didn't even leave the kitchen; they started eating grapes right next to the sink.
After eating two or three, Ma's mother patted Ma's father's hand and said, "Alright, stop eating. If you eat any more, you really won't be able to eat anything later. Save them for after dinner. Go and wake our son up now."
"Alright," Mr. Ma said regretfully, stopping his work and reluctantly placing the grapes on the living room table before walking directly to the bedroom of "Dreaming of Horses" and knocking on the door.
