Tears welled up in Jin Zeyu’s eyes, his heart overwheld with emotion. The tears he had fought to hold back finally broke free, streaming down his cheeks. “You’re still alive… I knew it… I knew you were still alive. This is great, Xi Yue. You’re alive.”
Xi Yue’s expression softened, the usual coldness and distance replaced by a gentle warmth. “Jin Zeyu, it’s been a long ti!”
Jin Zeyu gritted his teeth and nodded.
Ten years had passed. Xi Yue had disappeared from their lives for a decade, yet now, standing before him again. All the mories ca rushing back—vivid and intense.
“*Cough…*Ouch, it hurts! This is killing !”
Just then, Qian Dazhuang, who was lying not far away, woke up clutching his chest.
When he opened his eyes, he was montarily confused, unsure of where he was. But as soon as he saw Xi Yue, a deafening shout escaped his lips, and he lunged toward her. “Xi Yue! It’s really you! Hahaha, I knew you were still alive!”
Xi Yue chuckled and gently kicked him away, her strength barely more than a light push.
Qian Dazhuang was sent sprawling onto the ground by the kick, but he didn’t seem angry at all. Instead, he flashed a wide grin at Xi Yue, and as his smile grew, tears welled up in his eyes, the laughter giving way to involuntary sobs.
Qian Dazhuang’s loud voice instantly alerted everyone, both inside and outside the room.
Chen Xiaofeng, Zhang Yi, and the others also woke up at the commotion.
The mont Zhang Yi spotted Xi Yue, he rushed toward her, crying uncontrollably. “Xi Yue, you’re alive! *Sob…* you’re really alive. This is the best thing ever! I’m so happy!”
Anling Yuan, Anling Yang, and the others hurried in and said nervously, “What’s wrong? Are you fine, Xi Yue?”
As soon as they entered the room and saw a group of n crying uncontrollably, they were completely stunned.
Jin Zeyu cleared his throat, subtly wiping away the tears on his face. “Stop crying,” he said softly, “You’ll make us a laughingstock.”
Everyone then wiped their tears and cald down their emotions, but they couldn’t stop smiling.
Qian Dazhuang pointed at Zhang Yi, whose nose was red from crying, and scoffed, “You call yourself a man, soone who’s supposed to protect Xi Yue? A real man doesn’t cry like a baby or throw himself into her arms, whining like that. How old are you? Aren’t you embarrassed?”
Zhang Yi’s face turned bright red from embarrassnt as he shot Qian Dazhuang a fierce glare. “As if you didn’t cry!” he retorted. “Who was it, again, that bawled his eyes out when he heard about Xi Yue?”
The group burst into laughter, quickly slipping into their usual teasing and bantering with each other.
For the past ten years, their lives had been filled with hardship and depression. All they could focus on was getting stronger, no matter the cost, and seeking revenge for Xi Yue.
Now, suddenly realizing that Xi Yue was alive and standing right before them, their true selves began to surface once again.
As Xi Yue watched the noisy group, the heavy, suppressed emotions that had weighed on her since the battle atop Cang Mountain seed to lift. At that mont, it was as if a ray of sunlight had pierced through, softening her heart and brightening her spirit. ŘÂΝÒᛒĘⱾ
She turned to Uncle An and said, “Uncle An, please prepare so food and drinks. I want to entertain these old friends I haven’t seen in a long ti.”
Uncle An quickly bowed in response. Instead of leaving, he hesitated and took a step closer to Xi Yue. In a low voice, he murmured, “Young Master… Mr. Weizhi is still standing outside. He…”
Hearing that, Xi Yue’s expression imdiately darkened, and she coldly replied, “Don’t worry about him. If he wants to stand there, let him be.”
The atmosphere in the room instantly grew heavy and tense.
Jin Zeyu and the others exchanged uneasy glances, opening their mouths but saying nothing. They had already guessed that Weizhi was the young man in red who had injured them.
