Josh regained consciousness seven days later.
Over those seven days, her body slowly reverted to its 17-year-old state.
When she opened her eyes upon regaining consciousness, she found herself lying in Yuze's arms, clinging to him like a limpet, her head awkwardly propped up by his large hand at a distance.
It was as if she was desperately trying to snuggle up to him, while he was disdainfully pushing her away.
Yuze seemed overheated, having piled all the blankets on her, his usually smooth and shiny beautiful golden hair was tousled like a golden retriever that hadn't bathed in 800 years, and his brows were furrowed tightly, palms clammy with sweat.
Her mind blanked out for a moment, but quickly calmed down.
Josh sat up, looking around this place that resembled a spider's den, and only after a long while did she recognize it as her own room.
She distinctly remembered cultivating that night, and then her inner core...
Inner core!
