Suddenly, the scene shifts, and the devastating news arrives that Yan Jingzhou has died in a foreign land.

In her dream, she was in tears, her heart aching so much that her whole body convulsed, and her eyes were filled with crimson blood.

It's all blood...

Gong Ning suddenly woke up with a start.

The room was quiet, and all that could be seen was the dim darkness of night.

Before I knew it, I had fallen asleep, a dream that was definitely not a pleasant one.

Gong Ning sat up and found herself covered in a cold sweat.

The impenetrable darkness in her vision made Gong Ning a little scared, after all, the year she had gone blind was not a pleasant memory.

She fumbled to lift the covers, reaching for the bedside lamp switch, but accidentally knocked something to the floor, making a loud shattering sound like glass breaking. Gong Ning panicked.

Not long after, the door was opened and the person turned on the light.

The bright lights came on so suddenly that Gong Ning was startled and instinctively closed her eyes.

She heard hurried footsteps beside her, and a warm, dry hand grasped her shoulder. "What's wrong? Did you bump into something and hurt yourself?"

Gong Ning opened her eyes and saw who it was. Her previously forcibly calmed mind collapsed instantly. She threw herself into his arms, tears streaming down her face like broken pearls.

Yan Jingzhou was taken aback, lowered his head, and subconsciously hugged the girl in his arms tighter. "Did you have a nightmare?"

Gong Ning nodded, feeling wronged. "Yes, I dreamt of so many bad things, and it made me feel terrible!"

"Silly girl, dreams are always the opposite of reality!"

"But I dreamt about you, I dreamt that you left me, disappeared forever, and I couldn't find you anywhere! You don't want me anymore~"

Gong Ning's voice trailed off with a sob.

Yan Jingzhou's eyebrows twitched, and he forcefully pried open the small hands wrapped around his waist, then bent down and squatted down to look Gong Ning, who was sitting on the bed, at eye level.

The little girl in front of me was pale, and the fine downy hair on her forehead was wet with sweat, clinging helplessly to her temples.

Even her usually bright and energetic eyes were filled with a hint of fear and trembling, and were brimming with tears.

Like a hedgehog whose quills have been stripped off.

Yan Jingzhou's large, well-defined hand tightly enveloped Gong Ning's cool little hand, gently caressing it. A slight smile played on Yan Jingzhou's lips as he stared intently into her dark eyes.

"How could I not want you? You're always the one who dislikes and distances yourself from me. I'm too busy being close to you, so how could I leave you? Hmm?"

"I won't look down on you or distance myself from you in the future, please don't leave me, okay?"

The man gently tapped her reddened nose with a look of affection. "Okay, whatever you want, I won't leave you!"

The girl stopped crying and smiled, then obediently rubbed against his large, warm hand.

The man pulled her into his arms, and instantly, a reassuring warmth enveloped her, making her feel extremely at ease.

For a long, long time, Gong Ning's cheek trembled slightly against the warm chest, and a deep, mellow voice came from her ear.

"It's getting late, and you've just recovered; you need to rest. I'm right next door, don't worry, I'm here, okay?"

Gong Ning tightened her grip around his waist, pouted slightly, and reluctantly let go, but eventually obediently slipped into bed.

The man pulled the blanket up to cover her completely.

Gong Ning only revealed her bright, lively eyes, which were fixed on him without blinking, as if he was all she could see.

Yan Jingzhou's heart softened. He reached out and smoothed the hair on her forehead, then leaned down and gently kissed her brow. "Sleep well, be good!"

"Um!"

Gong Ning glanced at Yan Jingzhou, who was leaning over her, a few times, and then reluctantly closed her eyes.

Closing her eyes felt like plunging into darkness; her eyelashes trembled slightly with unease, but because he was there, she quickly regained her composure.

At this moment, all the servants in Xingzhan Garden had gone to rest. Looking at the glass shards on the floor, Yan Jingzhou frowned slightly. The next moment, he turned around and went to get cleaning tools to tidy up the mess on the floor in order to prevent Gong Ning from getting hurt.

I glanced at Gong Ning from the side. The little girl's pink nose twitched slightly with her steady breathing, and her small face was flushed with a healthy pink. Her pink lips unconsciously smacked a few times.

It was clearly fast asleep.

A faint smile appeared in the man's eyes, his gaze lingering on her face for a long time before he snapped out of it and chuckled to himself.

She left Gong Ning's room quietly.

Not long after, as if sensing something, Gong Ning suddenly opened her eyes. By the dim light of the bedside lamp, she could see that the room was empty except for her.

She sprang to her feet as if she were a carp leaping out of its shell.

——

Back in his room, Yan Jingzhou tossed and turned in bed, unable to fall asleep for a long time.

With her head resting on her arms, she stared blankly at the ceiling above her, a soft smile playing on her lips, but her thoughts drifted away.

Gong Ning ran towards him without hesitation at the banquet.

Gong Ning, who would immediately snuggle into his arms whenever she was unhappy.

Gong Ning, who had sent him to the police station countless times.

Gong Ning told him in a soft voice that she remembered everything.

Gong Ning, with a smile in her eyes, vowed to cling to him for life.

There's also Gong Ning, who kept saying "A-Zhou is the best" and even gave him a sweet kiss.

Even more so was Gong Ning, who excitedly jumped onto his back, shouting that she wanted to get her marriage certificate.

Her quirky and mischievous figure is etched in every thread of my affection, impossible to shake off, always there, like a lovesickness that has seeped into my bones.

How could he not believe that Gong Ning, who was so vividly portrayed, had regained her memories?

But I fear it's all just a dream, and I dare not touch it lightly, for fear that if I do, the dream will end.

The man suddenly closed his eyes, and in the dim light of the room, the curve of his lips deepened.

His baby is back!

Just the next moment.

The door suddenly made a soft click, and then it was carefully pushed open.

Yan Jingzhou opened his eyes and sat up. He saw Gong Ning, who had been fast asleep, standing timidly at the door, hugging a pillow and looking at him who had suddenly gotten up.

His action seemed to frighten her, and she forgot to go inside, standing there motionless as if nailed to the spot.

In fact, Gong Ning felt somewhat embarrassed.

Is there anything more embarrassing than climbing into someone's bed in the middle of the night and getting caught red-handed?

Before she could think any further, the man who had appeared in front of her at some point suddenly picked her up and carried her straight to the large bed in the room.

The room was dimly lit, but Gong Ning felt more at ease than in her brightly lit bedroom, and the surrounding air smelled wonderful.

Yan Jingzhou pulled the girl into his arms, his large hand gently stroking Gong Ning's cold little hand until it warmed up. He then tapped her forehead reproachfully, "Your hands and feet are so cold, Gong Ning. How long have you been standing outside the door?"

Gong Ning's mouth, which had been grinning from ear to ear, suddenly closed up. She snuggled into his arms and murmured without saying a word.
