It was as if time had stood still in that space; everything happened so quickly and secretly that even Xia Shuqin didn't notice Xia Wan's movements.

She only saw Xia Shuhua faint, and after everything was over, the entire space returned to calm, as if everything that had just happened was just an illusory dream.

Her eyes were filled with doubt and confusion as she watched the scene gradually return to calm, her heart filled with bewilderment.

"System, will Xia Shuhua have this out-of-body memory?" Xia Wan asked the system in her mind, her voice carrying a hint of relaxation after exhaustion, as if she had gone through a long and arduous journey.

The host can use points to erase this memory.

The system's cold voice rang in Xia Wan's mind, breaking the brief silence. The voice seemed to come from a distant place, carrying a hint of mystery.

"You have quite a few functions. Why didn't I notice these things in the system store before?" Xia Wan asked in confusion, her brows furrowing slightly and her eyes sparkling with curiosity.

"...Isn't this an upgrade?" The system's reply was slightly teasing, as if it were sharing a little secret with Xia Wan. The teasing tone eased the tense atmosphere a bit.

Xia Shuhua's body stopped convulsing, and she slowly opened her eyes, which were filled with confusion and bewilderment.

A trace of fear and unease lingered in her eyes, as if she hadn't fully recovered from the nightmare. Her lips trembled slightly, as if she wanted to say something but didn't know where to begin.

"What...what's wrong with me?" Xia Shuhua asked weakly, her voice barely audible, trembling slightly, as if she were still immersed in the fear she had just experienced.

Seeing that the person had woken up, Xia Wan stopped arguing with the system.

Xia Shuqin quickly stepped forward, helped Xia Shuhua up, and said softly, "Shuhua, it's alright, everything is over."

Her voice was soft and warm, filled with the relief of surviving a disaster. That warm voice was like a ray of sunshine, dispelling the fear in Xia Shuhua's heart.

Xia Shuqin was also watching Xia Shuhua with concern, her eyes full of worry.

She could now roughly guess what Xia Wan and the others meant, and she also knew why Xia Shuhua was acting this way.
