Lù Zhāo's excited heart was like being doused with a bucket of cold water, instantly going cold from head to toe.

His heart slowly sank, the blood drained from his face.

Shen Qingyao's expression overlapped with a memory, and Lu Zhao opened his mouth but couldn't find his voice for a while.

"Yaoyao? You... don't remember?" After a long time, Lu Zhao asked slowly, his voice tinged with apprehension. In a daze, he returned to that summer day again, eagerly looking forward to meeting his little girl, only to find that she had forgotten him.

It was after a serious illness like this.

"Hmm?" Shen Qingyao furrowed her brow, looking at him as if he were a strange person.

"It's nothing." Lù Zhāo looked down, suppressing the pain in his heart and said hoarsely, "It's okay, as long as you wake up, everything's okay..."

He saw Shen Qingyao gradually reveal a peculiar expression, she glanced at Cui Qiao, who had already sneered and ran off. Turning back, she looked into Lu Zhao's deep and serene eyes, then, in the face of his puzzled and sorrowful gaze, slowly, as if unable to hold it in any longer, she burst out laughing.

Since Shen Qingyao's soul was forcibly extracted a few months ago, she had been waiting for Xiao Mu to ascend to the throne and for Kong Lin to produce medicine. Then she watched as the system quietly placed her reward in the medicine newly developed by Kong Lin.

So after she drank it, her heart disease could be successfully cured.

As for the subsequent coma...

Shen Qingyao rolled her eyes and cursed the system thoroughly.

The other party assured her in every way that there would be no problem after drinking that bowl of medicine. As a result, the medicine was fine, but because her soul had been extracted for too long, there were some minor hiccups. Of course, she had just learned about this, after all, at that time, she was just pushed by the system and fell into her own body, then slept and woke up today.

She slept for three months.

What a 'small' hiccup.

Shen Qingyao sneered, remembering a moment ago when the system carefully explained upon her awakening. She wished she could just beat it up directly and then call it quits and tell Lu Zhao to just turn evil.

Then she discovered that Lu Zhao was not around, so she hurried out to find him, wanting to see him quickly and confirm that she was really okay.

But because her body was weak from sleeping for three months, she took quite a while to adjust before slowly being helped out by Cui Qiao. Never did she expect to stumble upon such a spectacle.

Shen Qingyao was furious. She had only slept for three months, and someone was already eyeing her position. How could this be allowed! Fortunately, Lu Zhao handled it decisively and cut off all possibilities, which calmed her down a bit, but she couldn't help but want to throw a little tantrum, which led to the scene just now.

But seeing that Lu Zhao really believed it, comforting her while feeling sad, his eyes filled with too much emotion, Shen Qingyao suddenly found it hard to continue teasing him.

After bursting out laughing uncontrollably, she looked at Lu Zhao and softly complained, "Elder Brother Lu Zhao, you're so silly..."

"?" Lu Zhao was stunned for a moment, then immediately understood.

For a while, he stood there stiffly, not knowing whether to laugh or cry. After a long time, seeing the girl still smiling, he felt the warmth slowly returning to his body, as if his blood was flowing back into his veins.
