...
When Shen Tang woke up, she was already back home.
She looked at the familiar setup of the bedroom in front of her, yet felt an unreal sensation.
A sharp pain in her mind, fragmented memories surged back like a tide.
Late night... agreement... volcano... Earth Core... assassination... farewell with an arrow...
Was she dragged back from the gates of hell, or was it just a nightmare?
"Tangtang, you're awake, that's great!"
Xiao Jin sat by the bed, his eyes bloodshot, seemingly having not slept for several nights.
He wanted to embrace her excitedly yet feared it might discomfort her, so he just held her hand tightly and anxiously asked, "How do you feel now? Is there any discomfort? How long was I gone and you ended up like this, almost losing your life, what on earth happened?"
Jia Lan brought over a bowl of medicinal soup and scolded, "You silly leopard, why are you so anxious? Tangtang has just woken up, how can she answer so many questions."
