Far away in France, a black Rolls-Royce was driving steadily on the road.
Jun Shiyan, who was pretending to be asleep in his seat, suddenly opened his eyes. His pupils constricted as he clutched his heart in pain. His eyes turned red instantly.
Memories flooded in like a tidal wave. The young lady’s voice and smile kept flashing in front of him like a movie reel.
Jun Shiyan held his heart and roared in pain and anxiety, “An Yan, return to the manor!”
He felt like his heart was being torn apart. The young lady must be leaving this world.
If she did not regain her memory, she would definitely find it back again. Even if she regained her memory, with her temper, she would not give up everything here.
He had expected this and had made preparations. He needed to recreate a new story now to welcome her.
Through the rearview mirror, An Yan could clearly see the change in the man. Although he was clearly still the Third Master, the feeling he gave off was unfamiliar yet powerful.
It was as if he was a high and mighty god that controlled everything. It made his heart tremble uncontrollably, and he had the urge to kneel down and worship him.
In the quiet ward, only the beeping of the heart monitor could be heard. The lines on the monitor were beating steadily. Suddenly, for some unknown reasons, the lines on the monitor started to behave erratically, emitting a sharp and ear-piercing sound at the same time.
“Dad!” After Ling Sheng screamed in despair and pain, she suddenly opened her eyes.
“Quick, tell Doctor Zhao that the patient is awake.”
“Ling Sheng, can you see me?”
“Ling Sheng, can you hear me?”
“Inform the patient’s family that the patient is awake.”
When the doctors and nurses saw that she had suddenly woken up, they surrounded her in surprise and bewilderment as they prepared various medical devices to examine her.
She had been lying on the bed for 13 months. The experts in the country had come to examine her several times, but they all came to the conclusion that it was impossible for her to wake up.
But she, who had been in a vegetative state for a year, suddenly woke up. To the nurses and attending physicians who took care of her, it was a blessing from heaven.
When Ling Sheng opened her eyes, all she saw was a vast expanse of whiteness. The strong smell of disinfectant filled her nose, and the ruckus made her feel like her head was about to explode.
“Ling Sheng, Ling Sheng, can you hear me?” Doctor Zhao, the attending physician, asked her in surprise.
Ling Sheng knew very well that she was back, she had returned to the world she had been in. Covering her eyes, she cried out sorrowfully.
In a low voice, the cries of pain grew louder. The girl’s body could not help but tremble violently. Her heart-wrenching cries were filled with suffocating despair and pain.
The doctors and nurses were taken aback by her sudden action. They were affected by her sadness and their eyes turned red. They froze on the spot, no one moved forward.
Ling Sheng cried for a very long time. There was a salty taste in her throat, and her chest felt so uncomfortable like it was about to explode. She held her heart in despair.
She was back. What would happen to her parents, grandparents, Xiaoqi, her family and friends? Would the world collapse and cause everyone to disappear?
The doctors and nurses had left at some point. In the huge ward, only her cries of pain and despair could be heard. The air around her was suffused with despair.
“Ling Sheng.”
The door to the ward was suddenly pushed open and someone called out to her.
Ling Sheng’s eyes were red. When she heard the familiar voice, she sat up immediately. Her vision was blurry, but she could see the man’s face clearly.
It was a face so handsome that it took one’s breath away. There was a hint of evilness, coldness, mockery, and ridicule.
“Ji Xing!” Ling Sheng’s voice was hoarse as she shouted his name in disbelief. “Why are you here?”
Why was he in her original world?
“I’m your family.” When Ji Xing’s lips curved into a smile, his long and narrow eyes were enchanting. He lazily sat on the sofa and picked up an apple. “This world is no longer the world you know. The people you are familiar with have already disappeared.”
“Where’s my manager and assistant?” Ling Sheng felt her breathing stagnate.
Ji Xing raised the corner of his eyes and his every move was enchanting. His thin lips moved slightly. “There is nothing else in this world. Besides you, there’s only me and this hospital that I have left for you.”
“What do you mean?” Ling Sheng frowned and wiped the tears off her face.
“It means that this world is already blank. After we leave, this place will become a void parallel world, just like the other planets in the Solar System you know. It exists, but there is no one.” Ji Xing took a bite of the apple and said, “You don’t have to worry. Since you are back here, Jun Shiyan and the rest will follow soon.”
“I want to go back to that world!” Ling Sheng stared at him firmly. “What can I do to go back?”
Ji Xing frowned and sneered, mocking her naivety and childishness. “You want to go back? Are you crazy? You can’t go back. Since you came back here, that world is useless and is about to be abandoned by us.”
“You must have a way to go back to that world, right?” Ling Sheng asked instead of answering.
She knew that now that she was back here, the world in the book would definitely collapse, and the fate of the characters in the book would disappear completely.
To Ji Xing, they were just strangers in a book.
But to her, they were her family and friends, so she wanted to go back there.She would never let anything happen to them.
“I don’t have a way!” Ji Xing threw the apple that he had taken a bite of into the rubbish bin. He stood up and looked at her from afar. “Rest well. Jun Shiyan will contact you soon.”
He did not expect that even at this point, she still had not regained her memories. Was it her own issue, or was Jun Shiyan sealing her memories too deeply?
Ling Sheng did not believe him. Since he could come to this world, he must have a way to return. Her gaze landed on the cross on his neck for a moment.
That cross was not an ordinary cross, there was a red ruby in the middle that looked like it contained flowing blood. It was very small, but it made her feel like it was alive.
Ji Xing had just stepped out of the ward when he heard footsteps behind him. Before he could turn around, he clearly felt a gust of wind at the back of his head. He felt a sharp pain on his shoulder and his vision turned black as he lost consciousness.
How dare she scheme against him!
