The last rays of the setting sun slowly disappeared behind the lingering mountain mist like a shy girl, as if covering the whole world with a mysterious veil. The weak but warm candlelight in the village was like a pair of bright eyes, illuminating the small piece of originally dim land at the entrance of the village, and reflecting everything around it with exceptional clarity.

The women and gentlemen, who were holding rough rice bowls and fine needlework in their hands, were now staring intently at the Liu family members they had just discussed. There was a hint of doubt in their eyes, mixed with a hint of indescribable expectation. Especially the girl in the blue-purple double-breasted long skirt, her graceful figure was looming in the candlelight, wasn't she the little girl of the Liu family who they had been talking about for several days? Who would have thought that she would suddenly come back like this, which really surprised everyone.

What was even more surprising was that there were two men following closely behind her. This made everyone speculate: Could it be that this little girl hooked up with a rich man and became his sister-in-law? Otherwise, why would she be so adorned with jewels and precious stones, and have two men who looked like servants around her? Could it be that they were afraid that she would never come back home, so they specially hired someone to watch her?

The villagers, who were full of worry just now, finally felt relieved when they saw the people return safely, but they still couldn't help but start to speculate wildly in their hearts. However, when they saw the ferocious looks of the two men, they suddenly felt an inexplicable fear in their hearts. They didn't dare to speak out their guesses easily, for fear that they would be heard by the other party and cause themselves unnecessary trouble. So, they could only stare at the situation over there silently, with complicated lights flashing in their eyes and thousands of thoughts in their hearts.

Liu Yuanxi didn't care what other people thought. As soon as she returned to the village, she saw two familiar figures. Their once straight backs were now hunched, as if they had lost all their energy. Their once shiny black hair had now turned gray. She only took one look and recognized that they were her parents.

She flew to her parents like a swallow returning home, hugged them and cried, "Daddy, Mom, my daughter is back, my daughter is back."

She watched her parents come back from outside the village, and she couldn't guess that they were worried about her disappearance. She was worried and anxious, and kept thinking about going to the city to ask officials for help in finding her whereabouts.

How could she not guess that they looked so haggard, they must have not had a good night's sleep for several days?

Is it Ah Xi? This familiar figure, this friendly breath, is it really my Ah Xi who has returned?

The woman looked numb, but her eyes were flickering with unspeakable expectation and anxiety.

Yin Hua stared blankly at the girl who rushed to her. Her originally empty eyes gradually focused on this familiar face, like a long-awaited rain. Tears flowed uncontrollably from her eyes, and the warm liquid soaked her face.

When she was sure that the person she saw was indeed her daughter whom she had been thinking about day and night, she could no longer suppress her inner emotions, and she suddenly used her hands to hug her daughter tightly.

The force was full of longing, worry and joy, as if she wanted to rub her daughter into her body. Her voice was choked with sobs, and she called out over and over again: "My Ah Xi, my Ah Xi, my Ah Xi..." Every call seemed to be expressing endless love and concern.

Liu Yuanxi felt a little uncomfortable being strangled by her mother, but she did not resist at all. She just gently stretched out her hand and patted her mother's back slowly, using this silent way to soothe her mother's restless heart. She responded over and over again: "Mom, I'm here, Ah Xi is here, Ah Xi is here." Those gentle words flowed through her mother's heart like a clear spring, soothing her inner trauma.

At this time, father Liu An also saw his daughter's return. His originally hunched body seemed to be straightened up by a magical force, as if he was about to turn back into the strong man who could protect his daughter from wind and rain.

A faint smile appeared on his weathered face, showing both his joy at his daughter's return and his unconcealed excitement. However, his red eyes and stubbled lips clearly proved that he was not unexcited, but because he wanted to be a solid harbor for his daughter and wife, he had to learn to stay calm and not let his emotions get out of control, so as not to cause them anxiety.

"Ah Xi, it's good that you're back, it's good that you're back."

At this moment, the family of three stood in a slightly empty place, with excitement and joy flashing in their eyes. After several days of separation and waiting, they were finally reunited again.

They stared at each other with happy smiles on their faces, but they tacitly did not ask where Liu Yuanxi had been in the past few days, because in their hearts, the reunion at this moment was the most important, and other issues could be put aside for the time being.

But when they thought of their eldest daughter who was tortured to death, the couple's hearts were instantly filled with grief, and the pain surged like a tide, almost drowning them. Liu Yuanxi was even more so. The depression and discomfort deep in her heart were like heavy shackles, tightly binding her soul and making her feel extremely tormented.

The three of them hugged each other and talked softly, revealing the warmth and kindness of reuniting after a long separation. However, as the conversation deepened, they gradually realized that this was not a suitable place to talk about family matters. So, they unanimously decided to return home and talk about their thoughts and experiences with each other in detail.

Liu Yuanxi knew that there were many villagers watching not far away, their eyes were burning, watching every move here all the time. If she couldn't explain things clearly today, then tomorrow there might be all kinds of rumors, saying that she became someone's concubine or something like that. This was something she absolutely didn't want to see, as it would bring unnecessary trouble to her family.

Therefore, she gently comforted her parents and told them not to worry too much. Then, she turned around and motioned the two men following her to take a step forward.

The two men were tall and had extraordinary temperaments. You could tell at a glance that they were extraordinary people. Liu Yuanxi solemnly introduced them to his parents, "Dad, Mom, these two are the guards of the current martial arts leader's mansion. They escorted me back safely all the way.

With hatred for the murderer of my sister in my heart, I resolutely went out to look for clues. Unfortunately, I was injured on the way, but fortunately, I was rescued by my master in time. She took good care of me and helped me recover from my injuries.

My master is the young and promising young master of the Divine Doctor Valley. And my great master, the master of the Divine Doctor Valley, is also the granddaughter-in-law of the Lin family.

At the beginning, I was seriously injured, and by chance I was brought to the Lin Mansion to recuperate, and stayed there for several days. Now, my injuries have finally healed, and my heart is full of thoughts for my parents at home, so I asked my master to go home to report my safety to my parents. After the master knew my thoughts, she understood very well. She was worried that it would be unsafe for me to return alone, so she specially asked the two elder brothers of the Lin Mansion to escort me home. "
