Meng Qianqian turned around abruptly, tears falling like broken beads into the air.
Each one is crystal clear.
Her eyes were filled with helplessness, confusion, shock, and disbelief.
My vision was already blurred.
All that came into view was a towering figure.
He walked slowly toward him, ten steps, nine steps, eight steps...
He gradually approached.
The clouds finally gave way under the weight, tearing open a gap, and raindrops fell in torrents, making her already blurred vision even more difficult to see.
She struggled to open her eyes, watching the person walk up to her, slowly squat down, and reach out as if to gently stroke her face.
A lump rose in her throat, an indescribable choking sensation: "Father... is that you...?"
The hand paused.
She sobbed, pressing her rain-soaked cheeks against his palm.
"Father... Xiao Jiu misses you so much..."
"I'm sorry... Xiao Jiu is late... You were imprisoned for so many years..."
"Xiao Jiu should have come to save you sooner..."
"Xiao Jiu..."
Her blood rushed to her head, her breath became sluggish, and she could no longer hold on. Her vision went black, and she collapsed.

Meng Qianqian woke up to the sound of birdsong and the fragrance of flowers. When she opened her eyes, she found herself lying in a bamboo house, on a bamboo bed covered with a thick mattress.
She remembered seeing her father in the heavy rain, then losing consciousness, and when she opened her eyes again, she was here.
The rain has stopped, but the air doesn't have the fresh scent of rain-soaked earth.
There has been no rain here for at least three days.
So, was it because he had been unconscious for too long, or was he already no longer in Xicheng?
creak-
The door to the bamboo house was pushed open, and a maidservant entered carrying a bowl of medicine.
Seeing that Meng Qianqian had woken up, she didn't say much, but simply placed the medicine on the table and left.
Meng Qianqian sat up, smelled the medicine, and glanced at the snacks beside her.
She ate two pastries to fill her stomach first, then drank the medicine sip by sip. Only then did she look down at her clothes.
She was no longer dressed as she was before she fell into a coma.
However, she was not alarmed.
She put the empty bowl down.
At this moment, another person entered the bamboo house.
He was a gentle and refined nobleman, dressed in a sky-blue robe, holding a jade flute, with a cinnabar mole between his eyebrows, his temperament was otherworldly and stunning.
"Girl, you're awake."
He spoke gently, "Your clothes were changed by my maid."
Meng Qianqian said, "Thank you for your trouble, young master."
The man said, "It was nothing, but young lady, you are pregnant. Why did you faint at the edge of the cliff? Could it be that you have encountered an insurmountable problem and are feeling despondent?"
At this point, he smiled apologetically, "I didn't mean to pry into your private affairs, young lady. I just don't want you to do anything foolish again."
Meng Qianqian said, "Young master is so thoughtful and considerate. He even prepared medicine to help me with my pregnancy. I have no way to repay him."
The man smiled and shook his head: "I already said it was just a small favor. I happened to be passing by, and I would feel guilty if I ignored it. If you really want to thank me, you should cherish your life."
Meng Qianqian looked at him: "What you say makes sense, young master."
The man said, "Oh, by the way, may I ask where the young lady lives?"
Meng Qianqian said, "Loulan."
The man was startled: "Are you from Loulan, young lady?"
Meng Qianqian said calmly, "Yes, my mother is from Loulan, so I should be too."
The man laughed and said, "What a coincidence, me too."
Meng Qianqian stared at him intently: "Was it a genuine coincidence, or did you do it on purpose?"
Man: "I don't understand what you're saying, young lady—"
Meng Qianqian called out his name slowly and deliberately: "Shan...Cheng." (End of Chapter)
