I don't know how long I slept before Lin Wanwan suddenly awoke from a nightmare, where she was still the helpless orphan driven out of her house, with no Space-Time Bracelet, no Great Tang, and no family.
She sat up, drenched in sweat, her ears buzzing as she opened her eyes to see the flickering candlelight.
In the dim light, there stood a man as serene as a deep sea, his allure and elegance indescribable, veiled and ethereal, like an Immortal Monarch.
"Have I ascended to heaven?"
"Cousin, cousin?"
The sound of a clear voice gradually reached Lin Wanwan's ears, like the gentle tinkling of a brook in a mountain stream.
She snapped back to reality from the haze of the nightmare, her eyes gradually focusing, suddenly realizing that it was Xiao Chong, clad in a gray-blue scholar's robe, standing before her.
Lin Wanwan couldn't help but rub her forehead, her voice slightly hoarse as she asked, "Cousin, what time is it now?"
