Weird dreams... He could understand that. He lifted a curled hand as if expecting something to be there to gesture with, and then folded his arms together across his chest instead.

"I've wondered how you were holding up... A lot has been happening lately. Having strange dreams is to be expected," he replied, tone lamenting. "To be honest with you, I've been having some strange dreams, too..."

Saying this much, Shi Qingxuan took a step back. "Say, you know that food is on sale today, too. Let's get something to eat. You've been moving around so much, you must want something to drink now. Let's have something nice, big brother's treat."

Then, maybe they could talk as they went.
