The man's lowered brows revealed a hint of hurt.

"So what was life like in your time?"

Jiang Yue lay on the side of the boat, supporting her cheeks with her hands.

At this time, torches were lit all around and the ships temporarily dropped anchor.

The light from the torches reflected on the water around the ship and was dispersed by the slightly rippling sea water.

The setting sun has completely disappeared, replaced by the cold silver moonlight.

"Your Highness, what day is it today?" Jiang Yue looked at the crescent moon.

Prince Shou tilted his head and thought for a long time, "Today is the fifth day of the fifth month."

It has been almost four years since the natural disaster, and the festival seems like a long time ago to people today.

Not to mention the month and day, so Prince Shou thought about it for a long time.

"I just arrived here and encountered a natural disaster. I don't know what festivals there are in your time. Is today a festival?"

Prince Shou shook his head, "No."

Jiang Yue turned to look at the man who was looking at her seriously, "Today is the Dragon Boat Festival in my era, a day to commemorate Qu Yuan."

The man frowned. "Qu Yuan?" It was obviously a man's name.

"Yeah." Jiang Yue's eyes shone with nostalgia. "Qu Yuan was a minister and patriotic poet of the Chu State during the Warring States Period. Because of his honest and outspoken advice, he was often ostracized and eventually exiled."

Prince Shou listened quietly, his eyes fixed on Jiang Yue.

"After the great Qin State conquered the capital of the Chu State, Qu Yuan committed suicide by drowning himself in the Miluo River on the fifth day of the fifth lunar month. After his death, the people of Chu were deeply saddened and flocked to the Miluo River to pay their respects."

"People were worried that the fish and shrimp in the river would eat away at Qu Yuan's body, so they made a lot of rice balls and threw them into the river to keep his body intact."

"Later, people would make rice dumplings and hold dragon boat races every year to commemorate Qu Yuan. The Dragon Boat Festival on the fifth day of the fifth lunar month has been passed down like this."

A faint sadness passed through the silent air.

Prince Shou could tell that the little girl was homesick.

She...missed her home in that world.

The moon on the river, illuminated by the silvery moonlight, seemed as if it would disappear in the next second.

Feeling panicky for no apparent reason, Prince Shou clutched the plank tightly, "It really isn't the same world."

"Yue'er, do you have any family over there?"

Jiang Yue's expression froze for a moment, then she smiled gently.

"Yes! I grew up in an orphanage. It's a place where homeless orphans or children abandoned by their parents live. Although I'm not related to them by blood, we're like a family, supporting each other and growing up together."

A sour feeling of heartache rushed into Prince Shou's heart as he listened to Jiang Yue's casual recounting of her life story.

The 1.85-meter-tall man's eyes suddenly turned red, and he grabbed Jiang Yue's soft and boneless little hand.

He said solemnly and forcefully, "From now on, besides Concubine Liang's family, you will also have me!"

Who doesn't want to have a family?

Who wants to be abandoned by their parents?

The wound in Jiang Yue's heart will never be healed.

Even if her biological parents come.

Not at all.

Jiang Yue raised her red eyes and looked at the man who had always brought her warmth invisibly.

She smiled sweetly, "Yeah!"

"Sister Yue'er, Prince, it's time for dinner." Xiao Zhu and Lu Bai stood beside Lu Er and shouted over here.

"Coming."

Prince Shou took out a handkerchief and carefully wiped the corners of Jiang Yue's eyes. The latter faced the sea and took a deep breath.

After the bitterness in their eyes faded away, the two returned to their room to eat as usual.

Jiang Yue was lying on the bed at night, probably because she had told Prince Shou a lot today.

It feels good to have someone to talk to.

It made her unable to sleep for a while.

When Xiaozhu got married, she didn't want the maid assigned to her by Concubine Liang, and now she is the only one living in this room.

So no one would notice if she suddenly disappeared.

As he thought this, his entire body disappeared from the bed.

After entering the space, I went to my home first and haven’t been back for a long time.

Looking at the familiar yet unfamiliar home, the table and floor were covered with a thick layer of dust.

Jiang Yue suddenly wanted to clean up.

Change into modern clothes and tie up your long hair.

Put on your apron and get to work.

After two hours of hard work, this small two-bedroom, one-living room apartment was finally cleaned thoroughly.

"Oh, I'm finally done cleaning. I ate dinner and now I'm hungry again. Let's go downstairs and see what to eat."

Standing in the familiar single-door elevator, looking at the person in the mirror on the wall of the elevator.

The face looked 80% like her, but the long hair and the short-sleeved shirt and shorts made it look completely out of place.

It's like a star on TV wearing modern clothes and having the hairstyle of an ancient princess.

Fortunately, she was the only one in this space, so no one could see her walk out like this.

I soon arrived at the gate of the community and greeted the empty security booth as usual.

"Uncle Liu, good evening."

Time in space is synchronized.

So it is also night now, and the sky is full of stars.

The street lights in the community are bright. She chose to buy a house here because of the good reputation of the property management in this community.

Look, even though no one lives there, they still use electric lighting. It is so much better than turning on street lights that may hit the wall.

On the snack street outside the community, all the food trucks are lit with a circle of rainbow lights.

There was still bubbling in the car.

"Hmm~ What should we eat? Ah! Let's have some barbecue, and spicy crayfish! And a bowl of hot and sour noodles."

Jiang Yue strolled around each food cart, picking and choosing as she would for a buffet.

Pack it yourself and take it home.

I picked up the phone that was charging in front of the TV and flipped through the various apps on it, but unfortunately I had no desire to open it.

The four years she spent in ancient times completely helped her get rid of her cell phone addiction.

There was really no TV series I wanted to watch, so I had no choice but to open the novel website.

What popped up was her discontinued novel.

It has now been automatically updated to Chapter 200.

It actually recorded what she said to Prince Shou in the evening.

Good for you.

Jiang Yue was too tired to complain. She didn't know what the point of this novel's automatic updates was.

However, the title caught Jiang Yue's attention.

'The virtual world is about to be divided'.

What do you mean?

What is the virtual world?

What does segmentation mean?

Before Jiang Yue could figure out the meaning of these words, the characters disappeared before her eyes one by one?

Disappeared! !

Jiang Yue was so scared that she sat up, and her hands holding the barbecue were shaking.

"Oh my god! What the hell! I've only seen words added, never words removed!"

After waiting for another quarter of an hour, there was no change in the new chapter of the novel.

Jiang Yue quickly exited the novel interface and put the phone on the table.

I continued eating with lingering fear.

As a result, she didn't even dare to turn on her cell phone.

I can only turn on the TV and watch variety shows.

Looking at the idols I used to like, Prince Shou’s face appeared in my mind.

I suddenly felt that these modern stars were unbearable to watch.

Finally, I had to switch to animation.

Um~

Tom and Jerry!
