Unable to suppress her grief, glistening tears rolled down her thin cheeks uncontrollably, one after another, until they finally soaked Tiger's large, broad hands.
In that instant, Xiao Mengjie felt an incredibly close connection between herself and Hu Zi, as if they were truly blood relatives.
This feeling was so strong that she involuntarily hugged Tiger's arm tightly, afraid that if she let go, he would leave her.
"Tiger, please wake up! Mengjie really misses all the wonderful times we spent together!"
Xiao Mengjie was immersed in memories of the past, and the days of laughing, playing, and accompanying each other flashed before her eyes like scenes from a movie.
Every moment was so clear, yet so unattainable, making her heart grow heavier and heavier.

However, when she met Xiao Jian's eyes, they both saw the same surprise and disbelief in each other's eyes—they clearly saw that Hu Zi's lips twitched slightly again.
"Brother Tiger!"
