Jiang Anxia walked along the path into the mountains.

As she walked, Jiang Anxia discovered a patch of mushrooms, and she was immediately thrilled.

This was the first time she had ever found mushrooms on the mountain in so long, which was quite a novelty.

One after another, they went unnoticed, which is truly remarkable.

While picking mushrooms, Jiang Anxia happened to see a nest of wild eggs and immediately picked them all into her basket, leaving none behind.

The sun was setting in the sky, and sunlight shone through the branches of the trees, casting sparse shadows.

A playful ray of light danced across Jiang Anxia's face, adding a soft glow.

At this moment, Jiang Anxia was like a fairy who had descended to earth.

It's breathtakingly beautiful.

Cleverly, this scene was witnessed by one person.

He stood behind the trees, his eyes fixed on the little girl picking mushrooms.

It's so similar, it's really too similar.

An Yuxi never imagined he would see her again, especially at such a special time.

Now, he is very grateful to Grandpa Zhang for writing to their family; otherwise, he wouldn't have come. He wouldn't have been able to see the little girl he had been searching for so long.

Their family has been searching for over a decade, and they had already given up hope. Now, someone has told them that they have seen a little girl who looks remarkably like their mother.

That's why he came here, and at an extremely fast speed.

Because they would not give up as long as there was even a glimmer of hope. So even though they had searched for many years without finding her, their family would not give up unless they found their little girl.

He was lucky to see the little girl today.

He arrived here yesterday and came up the mountain today to look for ginseng.

The main issue is the mother's health; only wild ginseng would be effective.

He still hoped his mother would recover, live a long and healthy life, and be surrounded by children and grandchildren.

Now, he saw that hope. Because he might have found the little girl.

He believed that once he was certain the little girl was his, his mother would gradually recover.

In this way, the little girl in the family returned, and the mother recovered, which is a win-win situation.

Jiang Anxia frowned. She felt an intense gaze fixed on her, as if trying to see right through her.

Following her gaze, Jiang Anxia saw a man, probably in his twenties, who was quite handsome.

Jiang Anxia looked at the man's face and for some reason felt that he looked familiar, as if she had seen him somewhere before.

But she couldn't remember where she had seen it before.

Unable to remember, Jiang Anxia simply gave up.

"Hello, comrade, I'm having trouble finding my way down the mountain. Could you tell me where to go?" An Yuxi came out from behind the tree when he saw that Jiang Anxia had noticed him.

"Just keep walking in that direction and you'll be able to get down the mountain." Hearing this, Jiang Anxia felt slightly relieved, but she remained vigilant and pointed to her left.

"Ah! Okay, thank you! Could you tell me your name, comrade? I'd like to thank you properly, otherwise I would definitely be wandering around the mountain." An Yuxi said, while showing a wronged expression.

He was willing to lose all sense of shame in order to get close to the young girl.

When he gets back, he'll definitely ask them for a reward.

"It was nothing, don't worry about it." Jiang Anxia shook her head, her gaze towards An Yuxi gradually becoming subtle.

Her heart, which had just settled down, was once again gripped by anxiety.

It seems that one must be vigilant when traveling, at least when dealing with strangers.

"No, I was taught by my family since I was little that if someone helps you, you must thank them." An Yuxi immediately put away her aggrieved expression and became serious.

"No need, this is my own refusal, it has nothing to do with you. I have something to do, so I'll leave first." Jiang Anxia pursed her lips, still looking refusal.

As she spoke, Jiang Anxia stood up, nodded slightly, and then turned and left.

"Hey! Little girl, you haven't told me your name yet!" An Yuxi quickly followed Jiang Anxia's footsteps.

He came here for her, how could he give up so easily?

Now that she had a 50% chance of winning, An Yuxi would persevere to the end.

Unless, he's mistaken about the person.

Hearing the footsteps behind her, Jiang Anxia quickened her pace.

What is this person trying to do?

"Little girl, I was just asking, I'm not a bad person." Seeing Jiang Anxia quicken her pace, An Yuxi also quickened her pace, calling out at the same time.

Jiang Anxia rolled her eyes at these words.

Bad people don't wear their badness on their faces. If you say they're not bad, then there would be no bad people in the world.

Because in the eyes of bad people, they are not bad people at all.

Just as Jiang Anxia reached the entrance of town, she saw a group of people and stopped.

She still wanted to take a gamble; what if she succeeded?

"Xiaxia? It's Xiaxia. Xiaxia, where did you go? Are you hurt?" Jiang Zhuohua, with sharp eyes, spotted Jiang Anxia in the blink of an eye.

He excitedly ran to Jiang Anxia and asked her questions.

"Big brother? That's good." Jiang Anxia pursed her lips slightly and answered obediently.

"Xiaxia, are you still angry? Are you upset that we only came to find you now?" Jiang Zhuohua looked at Jiang Anxia's face, his face paled slightly, and he spoke cautiously.

It seems that the side he least wants to see is about to appear.

"No, I'm just afraid..." Jiang Anxia didn't finish her sentence.

She wanted to go back and visit, but she was afraid that her mother-in-law would be unhappy if she saw her. She was timid and hesitant, completely unlike her former self.

"Xiaxia, no matter what, you will always be my sister." Jiang Nanqiu composed himself and looked at Jiang Anxia with a serious expression.

An Yuxi, who had been watching from a distance, almost couldn't resist going up to her.

What do you mean, "your sister"? That's his, his sister. He's the little girl's brother.

Although he wasn't entirely certain yet, he was pretty sure in his heart that the little girl was his sister.

"Besides, Mom... she probably just said it, she definitely didn't really mean it." Jiang Nanqiu's voice was low.

“I know, I can guess,” Jiang Anxia retorted in a low voice.

How could she not have guessed? She thought about it for a long time after that day.

How could Jiang's mother abandon her just because of such a trivial matter? There must be another reason.

But the reason was something Jiang's mother would never say, and would remain buried in her heart forever.

Jiang Anxia sighed, wondering how things had turned out this way.

It's become outrageous and completely erratic. It's awful!

How could it have come to this? It's hard to understand.

"Then... Xiaxia, are you... going home?" Jiang Zhuohua asked this question cautiously, afraid that a single word might upset Jiang Anxia.
