At that moment, a loud shout echoed.
Ma Lele felt a surge of joy in her heart. She opened her eyes to see Luo Qingyun slowly walking towards her. Under the moonlight, his peach blossom eyes were irresistibly charming, and Ma Lele had never thought he looked so handsome at this moment!
She glanced at the knife just a few centimeters away from her and excitedly shouted, "Luo Qingyun, hurry, save me!"
Luo Qingyun furrowed his brows and immediately stepped forward. He had been resting in the room when he heard someone calling for help not far away! It seemed that it was the woman in front of him who was calling out!
He scrutinized the woman before him with suspicion; her features were quite unfamiliar.
"Mr. Luo, do you know this person?" Mo Ting asked as he sensed something was off and quickly approached.
Seeing the hopeful look in the woman's eyes, Luo Qingyun hesitated for a moment before shaking his head, "I don't know her!"
Mo Ting finally let out a sigh of relief.
He was genuinely worried that if Luo Qingyun recognized her, it would be disastrous if things got revealed.
"Continue with the execution!" he ordered coldly.
Luo Qingyun then understood that this was an intruder in the palace.
Such incidents were common; he shook his head and prepared to leave.
But for some reason, she felt that the woman was very strange.
Ma Lele was extremely disappointed. She glared at the retreating figure of Luo Qingyun and angrily said, "You heartless bastard, I'm going to tell Hua Nongying to never pay attention to you again!"
Life and death were at stake, and Ma Lele couldn't care about anything else at this moment.
Her loud shout indeed caught Luo Qingyun's attention. He turned around abruptly and stared at her intently. "Who exactly are you?" Not many people knew about his relationship with Hua Nongying.
Although the wedding had ultimately become a joke, very few knew the bride's name.
However, this woman in front of him seemed to be very familiar with him and Hua Nongying.
Who on earth is she?
Could it be a conspiracy?
Thinking of this, a chill flashed in Luo Qingyun's eyes.
"Come here!" Ma Lele winked at him. It was impossible to say in front of so many people that she was Gu Yuniang and Ma Lele. Although her appearance had changed, she believed that Luo Qingyun would trust her.
Perhaps this was a kind of subconscious trust.
Luo Qingyun looked at the woman in front of him in disbelief, and inexplicably, he really walked over.
Watching the two people whispering in front of him, Mo Ting's eyes flashed with a sharp glint.
"What?" Hearing what Ma Lele said, Luo Qingyun was taken aback, looking at the woman in disbelief.
His mind was in turmoil, and after thinking for a long time, he suddenly grabbed Ma Lele and, disregarding the crowd, walked straight ahead.
Mo Ting felt a chill in his heart and commanded in a low voice, "Follow!"
Ma Lele looked at Luo Qingyun in confusion, unsure of where he intended to take her.
When she saw the words "Wisdom Heart Palace," she was taken aback and turned to flee, but was pulled back by Luo Qingyun.
"If you really are her, then there is someone who will definitely recognize you!" Luo Qingyun had never encountered such a strange situation before, but knowing its importance, he dared not be vague.
Letting Senior Brother see her was the best solution.
After hearing his words, Ma Lele reluctantly said, "I'll go in with you!"
At that moment, her heart raced; she wasn't sure if Tian Feiyao would recognize her. However, the interaction between the two of them was something only they understood, and that should be enough proof, right?
Thinking this way gave her a bit more confidence.
Inside the Wisdom Heart Palace, there was an atmosphere of joy as everyone congratulated Yunxin on giving birth to the Dragon Son.
Tian Feiyao sat quietly above, his expression unreadable, neither joy nor anger.
"Senior Brother!" Luo Qingyun strode in with Ma Lele.
"What is it?" Tian Feiyao frowned as he glanced at Ma Lele, who was following Luo Qingyun, and asked indifferently.
"A-Yao..." Ma Lele gathered her courage to speak, knowing she was running out of time. She needed help to find her child's whereabouts. Tian Feiyao was the child's father; he had the right to know everything.
So even though the hall was filled with people, she did not back down.
After all, this was not her first time standing at the center of a storm.
Hearing that name, Tian Feiyao visibly trembled. He looked at the woman before him in disbelief, his voice slightly shaking, "You... who are you?"
"Gu Yuniang, also known as Ma Lele!" Ma Lele took a deep breath and closed her eyes. Sure enough, a collective gasp echoed through the hall. They didn't know who Ma Lele was, but everyone knew Gu Yuniang—she was already dead.
Luo Qingyun narrowed his eyes, staring blankly at his senior brother's reaction.
Not just him; everyone else in the hall had forgotten to breathe, staring foolishly at the scene unfolding.
Ma Lele closed her eyes, bracing herself for his cold mockery and furious outburst. But after a long wait, the storm did not come. She suddenly opened her eyes and found Tian Feiyao merely gazing at her intently.
His eyes were like two black pearls, deep and captivating.
Ma Lele was momentarily taken aback when Tian Feiyao suddenly rushed forward and tightly embraced her. He held her so closely and forcefully that it felt as if he wanted to meld her into his body.
The unexpected hug left Ma Lele in a daze. After hesitating for a long time, she finally reached out and slowly wrapped her arms around him.
In the Imperial Prosperity Hall.
"Why do you believe so much that I haven't deceived you?" After Tian Feiyao dismissed everyone else, Ma Lele could no longer contain her confusion and asked.
"Because you said you are not from this time and space. So I have always believed that you are not dead!" Tian Feiyao looked at her, gradually regaining his composure.
"That masked man was you!"
Ma Lele was taken aback; this man had kept such a significant secret from her.
Tian Feiyao quickly nodded, "I... I just felt too embarrassed to face you, which is why I wore a mask."
His flustered demeanor resembled that of a child afraid of being scolded by an adult. Ma Lele's heart softened, and she shook her head, "What about the child?"
"Don't worry, the child is in a very safe place! I'll take you to see the child tomorrow!"
Hearing his words, Ma Lele finally felt relieved. However, after a moment, she couldn't help but ask again, "Do you really believe I am Gu Yuniang?" If she guessed correctly, her previous body was already dead!
Tian Feiyao nodded heavily once more and embraced her tightly.
He finally believed that his long-standing prayers had been answered.
It was only when Ma Lele was gasping for breath in his embrace that he whispered, "Actually, I had a dream."
"What dream?" Ma Lele asked, still panting and looking at him with confusion.
She felt no discomfort about being in his arms. In that moment of the embrace, she realized that she still longed to be held by him.
Wanting to enter the palace was also just to see him again.
Moreover, she was now Ma Lele, not Gu Yuniang.
Loving the person she wanted to love was precisely the purpose of her journey through time, wasn't it?
"I dreamed of an old man who said my wife would appear within a few days!" Under the light, Tian Feiyao's chiseled face softened considerably, and his eyes were filled with tenderness.
For the first time, he experienced what it felt like for a beautiful dream to come true; it was truly... wonderful!
Wife?
Hearing this title made Ma Lele blush immediately. An old man? Could it be that old woman?
