As the gate, radiating an aura of time and space, slowly opened with the combined efforts of everyone, Ling Yichen and Jun Moran felt a powerful and familiar force rush towards them, instantly enveloping them. Amidst the flashing light, their consciousness entered a brief period of chaos, as if their souls were rapidly traversing a tunnel of time, with past memories flooding back like a tide.
Ling Yichen closed his eyes tightly, his mind first filled with memories of the Shenghua Dynasty. He saw his initial confusion and curiosity upon entering that ancient world, lecturing at the academy where the students' eager eyes, like twinkling stars, illuminated his life in ancient times. He also saw the warm scene of enjoying tea and discussing art with Jun Mozhan in the courtyard, the sunlight bathing them, creating a serene and beautiful picture. And on the stage of the ancient entertainment industry, he showcased modern performance concepts, creating unforgettable moments with the performers, the enthusiastic cheers of the audience still seeming to echo in his ears.
Jun Mo Ran's thoughts drifted back to her days at the embroidery shop. Each exquisite embroidery piece was born from her hands, every stitch imbued with her heart and soul. She recalled the lively scenes of sitting with the other embroiderers, discussing patterns and color combinations, and the admiration and appreciation from officials, nobles, and commoners alike for her work. The tension and pride she felt designing costumes for the concubines in the palace also resurfaced in her mind. And the steadfastness and courage she displayed alongside Ling Yi Chen in facing the ancient crisis were indelible marks on her heart.
Suddenly, after a slight dizziness, Ling Yichen slowly opened his eyes and found himself in a bustling city street. Skyscrapers stood tall, cars streamed by, pedestrians hurried through the streets, and modern facilities and advertising signs were everywhere. The familiar sounds of noise, car horns, and conversations mingled together, creating a unique modern symphony. He stood there somewhat dazed, finding it difficult to adjust to this dramatic change in environment.
Jun Mo Ran also woke up. Looking at the modern city scene before her, a hint of surprise and excitement flashed in her eyes. But soon, a deep sense of loss welled up in her heart. Although their time in ancient times was full of hardships and challenges, it also held precious memories and deep emotional bonds. Now, back in the modern world, it all seemed like a distant dream.
They walked slowly along the street, everything around them both familiar and strange. Passing a movie theater, Ling Yichen couldn't help but stop. He recalled his experience transforming theaters in ancient times, the breathtaking performances brought to audiences through modern stage design and lighting and sound technology. Jun Mo Ran seemed to sense his thoughts as well. She gently took Ling Yichen's arm and said, "Do you remember those nights we spent in the ancient theaters? The audiences were captivated by our innovations; they were a testament to our efforts to change ancient entertainment." Ling Yichen nodded slightly, a hint of nostalgia in his eyes: "Yes, those days were tough, but incredibly fulfilling."
Continuing their journey, they arrived at a park. The park was shaded by lush trees and bursting with vibrant flowers. People relaxed and enjoyed themselves on the lawns, while children played and laughed. This reminded Jun Mo Ran of ancient gardens; though their styles differed, they both possessed the tranquility and beauty of nature. She sat on a park bench, gazing at the scenery before her, lost in thought. Ling Yi Chen sat down beside her and softly asked, "What are you thinking about?" Jun Mo Ran sighed, "I'm thinking about our friends from ancient times. I wonder how they are now. Is Su Jin still shining on stage? Is Lin Wan's embroidery shop still thriving?" Ling Yi Chen patted her shoulder, "Although we've returned to the modern world, that experience will forever remain in our hearts. Everything we did in ancient times will undoubtedly have a profound impact on that era."
In the days that followed, Ling Yichen and Jun Moran struggled to readjust to modern life. They reintegrated into the modern entertainment industry, only to find their mindset drastically different from before. During a break in filming, Ling Yichen, observing the modern equipment and busy crew, was filled with emotion. He told the director, "Do you know? I once lived in an ancient era, creating unique performances with the simplest conditions. There were no high-tech gadgets there, but the actors, with their love and dedication to acting, were still able to move the audience's hearts." The director looked at him curiously, and Ling Yichen recounted his experiences in ancient times. The director was full of praise for his story and gained new creative inspiration from it.
Jun Mo Ran, while participating in fashion events, combined ancient embroidery culture with modern fashion elements to design a series of unique clothing pieces. In an interview, she stated, "My life in an ancient embroidery workshop gave me a deeper understanding and appreciation of the art of embroidery. I hope to blend ancient beauty with modern fashion, allowing more people to understand and appreciate this ancient art." Her work caused a sensation in the fashion world, with people expressing great admiration for her unique design concepts and profound cultural knowledge.
However, despite their achievements in the modern world, they could never forget their adventures in the time-space turbulence and their encounters and collaborations with other time travelers. They often gathered together, reminiscing about their time in those mysterious ruins. Chen Yu's research on runes, Su Ran's valiant battles, and Lin Shiya's magical abilities—every scene felt like it was yesterday. They knew that that experience not only elevated their emotions but also gave them a deeper understanding of the mysteries of time and space.
On a quiet night, Ling Yichen and Jun Moran arrived at the city's observatory. Gazing at the starry sky, the vast and boundless universe seemed to hold endless secrets. Jun Moran softly said, "In the spacetime turbulence, we saw different fragments of spacetime. Those scenes made me feel the grandeur and mystery of the universe. Everything we experienced may just be a speck of dust in the long river of the universe, but for us, it is a precious memory unforgettable for a lifetime." Ling Yichen held her hand tightly: "That's right. Although we've returned to the modern world, our story continues. We must integrate what we've learned and understood in the ancient times and the spacetime turbulence into our modern lives, creating even more wonderful things."
Back in the modern world, Ling Yichen and Jun Moran, carrying their unforgettable experiences from ancient times and the time-space chaos, face life with a completely new attitude. They transform their past memories into motivation, continuing to write their legendary story on the modern stage. That adventure across time and space will forever be etched in their hearts, becoming the most precious treasure in their lives.
