"Father, you're awake! Mother, why is Mother crying?"
Wan Qiyi also transformed into human form in an instant. She ran to Wan Qijin's bedside and stared at him intently, practically trying to make him drool.
When she finally confirmed that her father was truly alive, Wan Qiyi cheered and jumped for joy, dancing around on the spot.
However, she soon remembered that her mother seemed to have cried. No, when she listened carefully, she could hear sobbing. Her mother seemed to still be crying.
"Mother, Father is awake, why are you still crying?"
Wan Qiyi raised her little hand, wanting to wipe away her mother's tears, but Tu Shan Lingxi pressed her little hand down and shook her head.
"Mother is happy. Look, your father is awake. He's finally awake."
Wan Qijin looked at the mother and daughter, his purple eyes softening. After a while, he felt like he could lift his arm again.
Wan Qijin raised his arm and personally wiped away Tu Shan Lingxi's tears. The moment his cold hand touched Tu Shan Lingxi's face, both of them were stunned.
"well."
Wan Qiyi was the first to react. Perhaps because they hadn't seen each other for so long, he was particularly fond of Tu Shan Lingxi's body temperature. His large hand seemed to come alive, and his movements were incredibly gentle.
"Don't cry. Your husband is awake now, why are you still crying? Please stop crying."
"Um."
Tu Shan Lingxi hesitated. She had just thought of another man, Yin Changling, who was still waiting for her in the palace. Should she tell Wan Qijin?
However, seeing the man's eager eyes, she ultimately suppressed her urge to confide in him. "Never mind, I'll talk about it another day."
Although Tu Shan Lingxi didn't say it aloud, Wan Qijin could easily understand her unspoken words.
Wan Qijin knew Tu Shan Lingxi best. After all, the two had spent so much time together, and he had his eyes glued to Tu Shan Lingxi back then, so he had a very clear understanding of her personality.
"Xi'er, do you have something to tell me? Don't worry, I'm listening."
"I--"
The words that Tu Shan Lingxi had swallowed back surfaced again, stuck in her throat, and she didn't know whether she should say them or not.
"I want to leave—"
"Xi'er!"
Wan Qijin finally understood Tu Shan Lingxi's hesitation. Afraid that Tu Shan Lingxi would say she wanted to leave him, he quickly interrupted her.
He looked around but didn't see Tu Shan Susu. Xi'er wouldn't leave the child in an unfamiliar place, so...
Xi'er still went back to the palace to find that person, didn't she?
Wan Qijin panicked for a moment, then quickly changed the subject, not wanting Tu Shan Lingxi to shatter his beautiful dream.
"Xi'er, have you been waiting here for me for a long time? You look so tired. Come and get some rest on the bed!"
"Hmm? Mother has been keeping watch over Father all night. Mother is tired."
Wan Qiyi noticed the strange atmosphere between the adults, and she promptly interjected to answer on behalf of her mother.
Wan Qijin glanced gratefully at Wan Qiyi. He had finally gotten a chance to catch his breath. Thank goodness, there was still time to salvage the situation.
"Yes, Xi'er, if you have something to say, we can talk about it after you wake up. Go and get some rest."
Tu Shan Lingxi glanced at Wan Qijin, then at Wan Qiyi. She did feel a little tired. With Wan Qijin back to life, the tension she had been holding back finally eased, and she naturally felt sleepy.
"Okay, but I won't sleep here. I'll sleep on the soft couch over there."
