Liu Gang and Xue Liang returned back to everyone, she had tons of hickeys on her body as she did her best to hide them. Her mother lectured them as their son was happy to see them.
"How is mother's little boy?" Xue Liang smiled. He smiled at her as he giggled. Liu Feng soon looked to Liu Gang, he wanted to go to Liu Gang. Xue Liang handed him to Liu Gang as Liu Feng kept rubbing his cheek against Liu Gang's cheek.
Xue Liang then said. "Feng really loves you." Liu Gang smiled at his son as he loved his son's eyes.
"Liang, my mother wants you and our child to go to the Qiliang Kingdom. She wishes to meet you." He looked at her as she didn't know if she wanted to or not.
Her mother was there because she didn't want to leave them. "Gang, I can't leave my mother and friends."
"Then let them come along. It has gotten dangerous here. They would be safe at the Qiliang Kingdom. Besides, like you said, your mother and my mother knew each other before and so I don't think it's a bad thing if my mother can help her regain some memories." Xue Liang thought about it as she then saw it was all reasonable.
"Alright, everyone is going to the Qiliang Kingdom. Get things that you'll need. It will take at least three months." Xue Liang announces.
"Not unless you travel with my feline, it will take one to two months." Liu Gang then said. It would be better to get there faster. They nodded as they gathered all they needed. Liu Gang helped as he shifted.
Xue Liang got on top of Liu Gang's Lion back as she tied her son around her body as he was tied close to her chest.
"Everyone ready." Su Rong rode on Peng Lim carrying their son as Ling Fe rode on Su Lei. Ling Fe was weak as she lost her memories of the past but also the ability to shift into her tiger.
They stopped for a night, preparing tents that they had brought along. There were three tents in total for each of them in a pair. Liu Gang prepared the fire as Peng Lim had made the food. Liu Gang entered the tent he shared with his son and wife. Entering, he saw Xue Liang patting his son wrapped in the blanket to sleep.
He smiled laying down next to his son. Xue Liang bent down kissing her sleeping son's head. "I'm sorry that I didn't return sooner. I'm also sorry that I wasn't there for you when you were in labor." Liu Gang took her hand from across from him. Xue Liang looked at him, seeing his eyes filled with regret.
Xue Liang shook her head as she laid her hand he held onto his cheek. "No one expected anything. I'm happy that you're back. I thought about you everyday. The only thing that kept me going was my friends and family. Even your son, very energetic in my belly." She said looking to Liu Gang then to Liu Feng. "Both of you are very important to me. I would do anything to keep you both safe." She said.
Liu Gang could see her determination to do anything to protect them. He sighed knowing his secretive and stubborn she was. "You cannot risk too much of your life. I won't allow you to do so." He held her hand on his cheek.
The tent lightly opened as they saw Peng Lim. "Oh, sorry. Um... I came to ask you both to come eat." Peng Lim said before leaving their tent.
"I'll watch him first. You go and eat." Xue Liang said, looking down to their son.
"I'll bring some food back. I won't let you starve." Liu Gang left the tent to grab some food. Gathering the food, Liu Gang has taken it back to Xue Liang who sat still on the ground in the tent. He entered the tent feeding her as she fed him back.

"Those two are such a good pair. I don't remember them but I'm glad that they both got together as a couple. I wonder who my husband was?" Ling Fe asked now while sitting next to Su Lei.
"Fe was married to a good man. He took care of you and loved you very much. You were just sickly so he had sent you away to heal for the time being." Su Lei decided to tell her a lie. She wanted to be a little generous to her dearest friend. Both ate sitting near each other sitting on a large fallen tree.

Peng Lim and Su Rong sat next to each other in their tent with their sleeping son. "His hair is just like yours. Very beautiful as the moon." Su Rong said, rubbing her sleeping son's hair.
"He got my hair but I got it from my mother. I've told you about my mother. She was the beauty in the brothel but I'm glad that I met you." He fed her little by little. Su Rong hugged him as she sat near him, leaning on him.
"I'm glad that I met you. I'm also glad that I have you as my pair. If you weren't in my life then I would've likely stayed alone and married no one. I will remain by Liang's side for life as long as I live." She said to him, he rubbed his head to her as both smiled knowing that they had come far for their love.
