Only here can she feel that Yu Xiuzhun is right beside her.

She can hear his voice, see his shadow, even feel his breath...

Everything feels so real.

Real enough that it doesn’t seem like a dream, but as if he is truly by her side.

She is reluctant to leave.

"Mingmei..."

"Sister, please stop talking. Just let me stay a little longer, okay? When the full moon arrives, I will definitely leave." Ye Mingmei hurriedly interrupted Qin Youxuan, her eyes filled with pleading.

"Dad’s surgery should be soon, isn’t it better for our family to go back together then?"

"...Okay, let’s wait until your confinement is over." Qin Youxuan was momentarily dazed, then gently nodded.

When she looked at Ye Mingmei again, there was a hint of curiosity in her gaze.

Could it be that she doesn’t want to leave the experimental building because of Diwu Zexuan... Qin Youxuan shivered all over, raising her hand to slap her forehead.

What nonsense was she thinking.

Mingmei couldn’t possibly have thoughts about Diwu Zexuan.

Facing Ye Mingmei’s curious gaze, Qin Youxuan’s throat suddenly choked.

"Young mistress."

Yao respectfully knocked on the door, standing outside Ye Mingmei’s ward.

"You rest well. I’ll come to keep you company a bit later." Qin Youxuan’s cat-like eyes brightened, and without much more to say to Ye Mingmei, she hurried towards Yao.

The two walked together to a deserted hallway.

"Is there news about Dan Hanjie? Are they coming back?"

"It’s news about Mr. Jinchen," Yao replied respectfully.

"Jiang Jinchen?" Qin Youxuan blinked her cat-like eyes, her petite body pressed against the wall, lifting her head in shock, "What about Jiang Jinchen?"

"Mr. Jinchen is fine. It’s Mr. Jinchen who received news that Mr. Jie is in trouble and took people to assist. If all goes well, they should return in these few days. He asked me to inform you, so you wouldn’t worry."

"Coming back..."

Qin Youxuan muttered these two words repeatedly, her eyes slightly heating up.

It’s fine as long as they are okay, just fine.

Jiang Jinchen, though unreliable, still comes through in critical moments.

"I’ll go tell Rui Hui."

Qin Youxuan turned excitedly to run.

Such immense joy needed sharing with someone.

The nearly half a month of worry, her heart could finally rest at ease.

-

The sound of helicopter blades, bringing the joy of triumph, gradually stopped on the lawn of the experimental building.

Qin Youxuan and Rui Hui, having received the news, were waiting there early.

"Xuan, quick, help me check, is my hair messy? With this big belly, nothing looks good. Do I look like a barrel now?"

"I say, dear cousin, I never knew you cared about your image in front of Diwu Zexuan?" Qin Youxuan teased as she looked her up and down.

"To be honest, I’ve never seen such a beautiful pregnant woman; you’re definitely going to charm Diwu Zexuan!"

"Who told you I’m looking pretty for Diwu Zexuan? I’m getting all dressed up because I’m going to see Jie..." Rui Hui blushed, reaching out to pinch Qin Youxuan’s waist.

Seeing the door of the helicopter cabin open, they couldn’t wait to rush forward.

Dan Hanjie slowly stepped out.

A black suit enveloped his strong and upright form, his charmingly handsome face carved like a sculpture, with a subtle tilt, exuding a holy light.

Upon seeing Qin Youxuan, his enchanting eyes instantly softened.

Walking forward, he pulled her into his arms.

"Jie, where is Diwu Zexuan? Why are you alone?" Rui Hui froze in place, looking at the empty cabin, her face turning pale in an instant.
