"Stop!" Yu Qianqian's sharp eyes were fixed on the white figure. She quickly reached forward with both hands, pressed on his shoulders, and then flipped him over.
However, the moment she met this person's gaze, she froze, her body stiffening as she stood there for a long, long time, unable to utter a single word.
However, what surprised her most was not the moment she saw that person, but that most familiar face and those three thousand strands of silver hair fluttering in the wind.
Her stunned expression met the gaze of the white-clad, silver-haired man. His eyes were deep and complex as he looked at her. His exceptionally handsome face shone brightly in the moonlight, and his cold, stern features carried a sense of vicissitude.
Especially at this moment, in Yu Qianqian's eyes, this person was more stunningly beautiful than a celestial being.
"Su... Su Yu, why is it you?" Yu Qianqian stared at the white-haired man in front of her, and was so panicked that she stammered incoherently, her voice short and disordered.
Su Yu also looked up at her, her calm expression completely unwavering. Then, she replied in a low, unhurried voice, "This humble Taoist, Qingjue, pays respects to Your Majesty the Empress."
Yu Qianqian seemed not to hear his voice at all. After speaking, she did not respond for a long time. She just stared at him with tears welling up in her eyes. Before he could ask her anything again, Yu Qianqian suddenly dodged and pounced, crashing into his arms.
Su Yu had only opened his mouth, but before he could utter a word, he felt a warm, soft body tightly embrace him, catching him off guard. His body stiffened, and he remained in the same position for a long time without moving an inch.
Yu Qianqian pressed herself against Su Yu's warm, broad chest, burying half her face in his shoulder, her tone of voice fluctuating and unusually disordered as she spoke to him.
“Su Yu, I heard about your death from others, but I never believed it. I didn’t think you could die so easily. I searched the world for a long time afterward, but to no avail. I even thought that you might have hidden yourself away in a fit of anger because you didn’t want me to go back to Mu Beichen…”
As the words were slowly fading away, Su Yu gradually recovered from her panic. She gently raised her slender, fair hand and placed it on Yu Qianqian's back, stroking it slowly and softly, patiently soothing her with her body.
Once the person in his arms had stopped trembling, he hesitated for a moment, lowered his head to look at her, and slowly said, "Qianqian... it's been a long time."
Upon hearing this, Yu Qianqian immediately emerged from her embrace to look at him, her bright eyes narrowing as a smile bloomed on her pretty face: "Long time no see..."
"Oh right, how did you suddenly appear here?" Yu Qianqian grasped Su Yu's hands with unusual excitement, her gaze intense and her words hurried, revealing the excitement in her heart.
Before he could even reply, she eagerly followed up with, "And... are you all better now?"
"..."
Hearing these random questions, Su Yu frowned and raised her hand to shut Yu Qianqian's incessant mouth.
A moment later, he saw Yu Qianqian staring at him blankly with her bright, dark eyes wide open. He simply bent down and moved closer to her, chuckling involuntarily, "What? You deliberately chased me so closely in the dead of night just to leave me out in the cold wind in this desolate wilderness?"
