No one knows how much time has passed, but the person who had been lying quietly on the bamboo bed finally slowly opened their eyes.

What eyes they were! Clear as water, bright as stars, as if they could see through everything in the world, but at this moment, these beautiful eyes were filled with confusion and doubt, staring blankly at everything around them.

Where exactly is this place?

Why am I here?

Most importantly...

who I am?

Li Baobei felt as if she had been asleep for a long time. Now her whole body was limp and she had no strength at all. Her mind was also blank, as if a thick fog had sealed all her memories. No matter how hard she tried to recall, it was all in vain.

After calming herself down a bit, she managed to sit up slowly, barely managing to support her body.

Just then, a series of light footsteps came from outside, sounding like they were approaching her room.

Not long after, a petite figure appeared at the door.

Immediately afterwards, a tall and imposing man followed into the house.

Looking at the two strangers, a man and a woman, who had suddenly appeared in front of her, Li Baobei felt increasingly confused.

Who exactly are they?

Why do I have no recollection of them at all?

Just as she was racking her brains, the little girl standing by the door suddenly shrieked excitedly, "Wow~ the pretty sister has finally woken up! I'll go get Master right now!"

Before she finished speaking, the little girl dashed out like a cheerful bird and disappeared without a trace in the blink of an eye, leaving only her clear and melodious laughter lingering in the air.

Dongfang Yerong stared in disbelief at the person sitting on the bed, her eyes reddening and her heart pounding as if it were about to leap out of her throat.

He took a deep breath, trying to calm his excitement, but his body involuntarily took a small step forward.

However, at that moment, a sharp pain suddenly struck, as if a sharp blade had slashed across his chest.

Blood instantly soaked through his clothes, spreading outwards from his heart to form a shocking flower of blood.

At the same time, a strong feeling of dizziness surged into his heart like a tide, making him almost unable to stand.

Despite this, Dongfang Yerong still struggled to keep herself from collapsing.

He used his last bit of strength to try and see the person he had been longing for day and night one last time.

But the scene before my eyes gradually blurred, and darkness mercilessly swallowed everything.

In the instant before he lost consciousness, he vaguely saw that familiar figure rushing towards him.

“Nannan…”

He murmured to himself, his voice as soft as the flutter of a mosquito's wings, yet it contained endless affection and longing.

Unfortunately, this was the last call he could make.

The next moment, he fell heavily to the ground, closed his eyes, and remained motionless.

Li Baobei stared quietly at the pale-faced, thin man on the bed. He lay there quietly, with only his faint breathing proving that he still had a glimmer of hope.

She leaned closer to the man, scrutinizing his face as if trying to find a clue.

The feeling was both familiar and strange; she tried hard to recall, but couldn't remember anything related to this person.

The story of how they were discovered was told to Li Baobei by the little girl on the island—they were found in a peach grove filled with magical formations.

However, when she suddenly remembered treating the gruesome knife wound on the man's chest, a strong sense of fear and shock welled up inside her.

She knew that this man had saved her, but the old man and the little girl did not explain in detail how they had saved her.

Li Baobei could hardly believe that this man could survive such a severe injury; it was nothing short of a miracle!

Faced with the critically ill man before her, Li Baobei felt deeply indebted to him, a debt of gratitude she could never repay.

She simply couldn't understand what kind of person would go to such lengths to save her. Could it be someone she deeply loved?

All the questions could only be answered after the man woke up.

As of now, this is all the information Li Baobei knows.
