Shen Xingmian smiled and waved to them, "Alright, Grandpa, get some rest. Dad will take care of the rest."

After saying this, she helped General Shen back to bed, then took her father's arm and hurriedly left.

Her whole family is to be exiled tomorrow. Even if there are supplies in her spatial storage, she can't just sit here and wait to die. Even if the palace is hard to reach, she can still plunder a lot of things from the nearby houses.

As she walked, she muttered to her father, "Father, where is our storeroom? We need to take everything inside. We can't let those bastards get a single penny."

"Hmph, they want to raid your place? Let them find nothing. I'll raid their place first."

Luo Qi'an was still a little worried: "How about we wait for your mother to come back and have her take you there? She's more familiar with the capital, and she's skilled in martial arts. She can protect you if you encounter any danger."

Looking at her father's face, which was filled with worry yet also revealed his beauty, Shen Xingmian sighed inwardly. Her mother was truly blessed; the family had such good genes, and she herself was sure to be just as good. She really wanted to look in the mirror.

However, since the body already belongs to her, there's no rush; let's get down to business first.

"By the way, Father, why isn't Mother home?"

Given my grandfather's previous condition, unless my mother was traveling far away, she would definitely rush back no matter what happened.

"Your mother was deliberately transferred away, but she should be back soon." Luo Qi'an's expression darkened further when he mentioned his wife's transfer.

Just then, a horse neighed at the door, and a black figure rushed in, looking anxious.

This is her mother.

Although he was travel-worn, his capable and decisive demeanor as a martial artist was undeniable. He had a straight back, was tall and thin, yet looked very powerful.

I'm envious.

Looking down at her arms and legs, Shen Xingmian decided that she must work hard to build up her physique, and even if she had superpowers, she would never slack off.

"lady!"

The excitement in her father's voice sounded a bit too much to Shen Xingmian. They were an old married couple, yet their relationship was still so good; they were truly a loving couple.

"Qi An, how is Father? I realized something was wrong and rushed back immediately, fearing that something might have happened to you but I wouldn't have been able to save you in time..."

Shen Yunting spoke urgently, his expression revealing worry and a hint of anger.

Luo Qi'an grabbed the man and comforted him in a deep voice: "Father is fine and resting in his room. But I have some great news to tell you."

His tone was calm and his voice was firm, carrying a calming power.

Shen Yunting really didn't know what good things could happen at a time when news of her family's exile had already spread and the gate was heavily guarded, allowing only entry and no exit. But she firmly believed that her husband would not lie to her.

"mother."

A girl's sweet voice rang out beside him, and Shen Yunting froze, looking incredulously toward the source of the sound.

Is it her little girl, who has always been oblivious to those around her... calling her?

Looking at the little girl who was barely taller than her shoulder, she called out uncertainly, "Mian'er?"

Shen Xingmian nodded emphatically, her smile radiant: "Mother, I missed you so much!"

This is no lie. As her soul merged with her body, everything from the past seemed more and more like it had actually happened to her.

She can also feel her family's love more directly.

In this situation, she found it very difficult to resist the affection she felt for them; she longed to feel her mother's embrace.

Before she could wait any longer, Shen Yunting released her husband, grabbed her shoulders with both hands, and bent down to look at her precious daughter at eye level.

"Mian'er can actually call me mother now, I..." The rest of the sentence was choked up. The strong-willed Shen Yunting burst into tears in front of her daughter's cry of "mother".

Luo Qi'an quickly hugged his wife and daughter, anxiously comforting them: "Mian'er can not only call people, but also has many amazing abilities. Madam, don't cry, let's get down to business first, otherwise our precious daughter will get anxious."

Shen Xingmian: A cunning father who actually uses his child to please his wife.

But she really liked this family atmosphere, and immediately nodded and said, "Yes, Mother, we can talk about the rest later. There's something important I need you to do with me now."

She briefly explained what had happened, then looked expectantly at her mother, who was stunned.

Well, this kind of thing is still a bit too much of a shock for the people here. But there's really no time to let them adjust and gradually accept it.

She thought her mother would need some time to process this complicated information, but to her surprise, her mother slapped her thigh and led Shen Xingmian to the backyard, waving to her husband that he could go back.

“Since my daughter has had this extraordinary encounter, I’ve come up with a good place.” Her mother’s tone was a little fierce, which made Shen Xingmian even more curious about their destination.

"The eldest princess has always coveted your father, and she was the one who stirred things up behind the scenes this time; otherwise, the exile wouldn't have come so quickly."

"Now that our precious daughter has had such an extraordinary encounter, it would be a disservice not to raze her princess mansion to the ground for all the wicked things she's done."

Shen Yunting's tone was fierce, like that of a villain.

However, Shen Xingmian really liked this kind of mother. She was ruthless and could even hit her, which was much better than Baozi.

At least I don't have to worry about being held back in the future.

very good.

She was even more satisfied.

Shen Xingmian didn't need to worry about the route afterward; her mother quickly planned it out. No wonder she was a woman who had learned military strategy from her father since childhood and was able to save her husband from bandits.

Even though the entire general's mansion was surrounded, it didn't stop the two of them from successfully slipping out, without even needing to use Shen Xingmian's spatial ability.

Shen Xingmian truly admired her mother's abilities. It was truly remarkable for a woman of that era to possess such skill and courage.

The two bypassed the guards and turned directly into a deserted alley.

Shen Yunting squatted down and said gently, "Mian'er, come here, climb onto Mother's back, and Mother will carry you across."

After the memories merged, Shen Xingmian knew that her body was about to turn thirteen years old, and even though she was slender, she still weighed forty or fifty pounds.

Before the apocalypse, she couldn't even drag a 50-pound bag of rice, let alone lift it. Now, even though she really wanted to cuddle with her mother, she couldn't bear to tire her out.

So she shook her head, worried that her mother couldn't see, and added, "Mother, don't worry, I can keep up."

Unexpectedly, Shen Yun stopped and pulled her back, scooping her small body up onto his back. He then nimbly stood up, bounced her up a bit more, and said tenderly:

"Mom has been looking forward to this day for a long time, to take you out to have a great time, and then, when you're tired, to carry my precious daughter on my back and stroll slowly home. Although the scene is different now, Mom is still very content."

My darling Mian'er, she's finally responding to me.

Just one sentence brought tears to Shen Xingmian's eyes. It wasn't that she was prone to crying; she never cried when no one cared for or loved her. She was incredibly strong.

But faced with such doting affection, she couldn't help herself.

She wrapped her arms around her mother's neck and hugged her tightly; such tenderness was truly something to cherish.

However, the atmosphere was quickly broken.
