It was still a cold winter then, but spring shouldn't be too far away, as the trees along the roadside were sprouting tender green buds.
She sat by the lake, feeling both anxious and overjoyed after learning she was pregnant.
After she sighed again, she looked up and saw a familiar figure. At first glance, she thought she was seeing things, but when she looked again, she found that the figure was still on the other side of the lake.
A look of joy appeared on her face, "Shi Sheng!"
The lakeside was very empty, carrying her voice far away with an echo.
When Mo Shisheng heard Li Ji's voice, he raised an eyebrow and looked in the direction the voice came from.
Seeing that Mo Shisheng had noticed her, she was even happier and waved her hand vigorously at Mo Shisheng, "Here! Shisheng, come here for a second!"
When Mo Shisheng walked up to her, she carefully stood up. "Shisheng, what brings you to the Demon Realm?"
Mo Shisheng didn't answer, but seemed puzzled by her own cautious demeanor, her brows furrowing slightly. "What's wrong with your health?"
"Huh? Nothing's wrong."
Upon hearing this, she was taken aback for a moment before quickly replying.
Such a flustered explanation would be unbelievable to anyone.
However, Mo Shisheng did not continue to ask, because she would respect her decision if she did not want to answer.
"Why not sit on the rocks when there are chairs over there? It's much more comfortable there."
Mo Shisheng glanced at herself lazily, probably knowing that she was moving very cautiously, so she reached out a hand to support her arm.
She was surprised that Mo Shisheng would support her, and paused for a moment before following Mo Shisheng into the pavilion and sitting at the stone table.
"I've come here to find Ming Beiya."
Mo Shisheng gently raised her eyes to look at herself, and only after sitting down did she answer her previous question, "You didn't know he and Ming Qiancheng were brothers?"
"You mean His Highness?"
Upon hearing Mo Shisheng's words, she suddenly remembered that Mo Shisheng had been rescued by the young prince when she was in the underground royal city.
Now, hearing Mo Shisheng mention it, she realized that Ming Beiya was the name of the young prince, who was also Mo Shisheng's beloved.
However, she had never met Ming Beiya, not even after coming to the Demon Realm.
"Um."
Mo Shisheng nodded slightly. "Did Ming Qiancheng bring you to the Demon Realm as well when he left the Underground Royal City?"
"Um."
She nodded vigorously, then suddenly reached out and grabbed Mo Shisheng's arm. "Shisheng, aren't you afraid? This is the Demon Realm."
"..."
Mo Shisheng's gaze gently fell on herself, a hint of confusion in her eyes, as if she didn't understand why she would ask such a question.
Mo Shisheng immediately realized that she was a mortal.
Although Mo Shisheng didn't understand this feeling, she still took good care of her own feelings.
“Liji, I am not an ordinary person either. I understand your feelings, but I cannot truly empathize with you.”
Mo Shi gently withdrew his hand and then placed it on the back of his own hand.
Mo Shisheng's fingertips were warm, but the back of her hand was icy cold. "You're scared, aren't you? Because you don't feel safe here."
"..."
Even though Mo Shisheng was speaking calmly and without trying to comfort her, it was precisely these words that touched the softest spot in her heart at that moment.
It was then that she realized Mo Shisheng was no ordinary person, and she understood why Mo Shisheng had appeared in the Demon Realm.
At that moment, she felt an overwhelming sense of envy for Mo Shisheng, a genuine envy from the bottom of her heart.
