After crossing, I surrounded the capital from the countryside

The man's figure was tall and straight, and because of the backlight, his face was blurry in the dim light.

He stood quietly beside the bed, staring at Xu Qingqing's sleeping face with empty eyes. Those eyes flashed with gentle and ardent light.

He raised his hand slightly, and upon closer inspection, it was trembling slightly. He gently touched her cheek, then withdrew his hand.

As if he had confirmed that she really existed and was no longer a shadow that would dissipate at the touch of a finger, the man smiled with satisfaction.

Perhaps she felt the man's gaze, Xu Qingqing scratched her cheek in her sleep and muttered something.

Seeing this, the man smiled dotingly and looked at Xu Qingqing, who looked like a child in front of him.

The last time I saw her was when she was three years old. Seeing her again now, I still can't help showing a hint of joy as if I had discovered a new world. [You were so cute when you were a child... You are completely different from the way you look when you grow up...]

Thinking of the news he had just received, he looked at Xu Qingqing who was sleeping soundly and shook his head helplessly. It was still like this, putting herself in danger for the sake of others...

Seeing Xu Qingqing suddenly frowned, she seemed to be sleeping unsteadily.

He sat down gently on the edge of the bed and gently placed his hand between Xu Qingqing's eyebrows. A white light flashed by, and Xu Qingqing's tightly frowned brows relaxed in an instant.

The man smiled slightly, and suddenly felt something. He stared deeply at Xu Qingqing's forehead, then turned and left.

Xu Qingqing, who was soundly sleeping, was unaware of people coming and going, and was only immersed in the sudden change of dream.

The familiar figure was slowly walking away. She wanted to call out to that person like crazy, but the name was on the tip of her tongue, but she just couldn't open her mouth.

She wanted to grab that person, but no matter how hard she ran, there was only a back view and she could not touch him at all.

The two people at this moment are like two non-intersecting parallel lines, stretching hard in the endless space in order to meet, but ultimately they are like two meteors passing by each other, destined to leave each other with regret and helplessness.

In the end, Xu Qingqing fell to the ground exhausted, and could only watch the man's back disappear before her eyes. She tried to reach out her hand to the departing figure, and shouted with all her might, "Don't go..."

But I can only grasp the empty air...

Xu Qingqing, who was sleeping, had a glimmer of light in her eyes, and murmured, "Don't go..."

"Don't go!"

Xu Qingqing suddenly woke up from her dream, her mind still immersed in the heart-wrenching pain.

She sat up, sweat on her forehead. The room was filled with a dull and suffocating feeling, as if the pain in the dream was still spreading.

She looked around in a daze. Under the influence of Shen Nanshu's current mood, every corner of the room that was carefully decorated seemed strange and deserted.

The sunlight coming in from the window passes through the curtains and casts mottled shadows. The light shines on the face, reflecting a hint of sadness.

She threw back the quilt and slowly stood up, her steps a little unsteady.

Walking to the mirror, she looked at her immature face in the mirror, her eyes revealing a hint of confusion and helplessness.

She raised her hand and pressed it on her chest, feeling the real pain.

Memories flashed through her mind, and she recalled the blurry face of the man in her dream, his gentle eyes, and the figure who left desperately.

She walked to the window, opened the curtains, and looked out at the mountains in the distance.

The wind blew across her face, bringing a hint of coolness. She closed her eyes and took a deep breath, trying to calm herself down.

However, the heart-wrenching pain still lingered deep in her heart.

"Who are you……"
