Lu Yuan has eight hundred tricks up his sleeve, when it es to playing, Chen Long never wins.
"No."
Anyway, I've lost quite a bit along this journey; it's like they say, a large debt causes no worry, learned from the old matriarch.
Lu Yuan's mouth twitched.
Meng Qianqian's expression relaxed.
Finally freed from Ayimulan, and finally reunited with everyone, a huge weight was lifted off her heart.
"By the way, where are Tan'er and the others?"
She asked.
Having disappeared for so long, Tan'er and Ban Xia must have been worried sick.
Lu Yuan said, "They are right behind us, will be here soon."
Speak of the devil.
"Sister——Sister——"
Tan'er's excited small voice, like a heavy hammer, resounded over the undulating desert with her strong and powerful footsteps.
Meng Qianqian opened her arms.
Tan'er flew over with a whoosh——
and missed.
He was lifted up by Lu Yuan.
Tan'er drooped his head and small skinny arms, "What are you doing?"
Lu Yuan placed him to the side, "Take it easy."
"Alright, alright."
Tan'er hopped to Meng Qianqian, carefully avoiding her belly, and gave her a big hug.
Meng Qianqian stroked her cheek, "Tan'er."
Tan'er muttered, "Sister, I missed you! You've been gone so many days!"
Meng Qianqian smiled a little, "Next time, I won't leave for so many days."
Tan'er nodded, "Next time I'll keep an eye on you, make sure you don't get taken away again! Was it Shan Cheng?"
"Yes, it was him."
Meng Qianqian said softly.
Tan'er, clasping his hands in anger, "How dare he capture you, when I see him, I will cut him to pieces!"
Suddenly realizing something, she covered Meng Qianqian's belly with both hands, "Baby didn't hear that, didn't hear!"
Meng Qianqian chuckled.
The gazes of Lu Yuan and Chen Long simultaneously landed on Meng Qianqian, confirming her plexion had not worsened, and she hadn't lost weight, their expressions softened slightly.
"Tell me, what happened on your journey?"
She asked Tan'er with a smile.
Tan'er started chattering away.
pared to their monotonous encounters, Meng Qianqian's experiences were worth mentioning.
However, Tan'er was close to tears.
Meng Qianqian didn't want her to soak in sadness and guilt.
Two hours later, Si Snake, Meng Lang, and Ban Xia caught up with the main group.
Si Snake with a backpack, Meng Lang carrying a load, they moved steadily forward under their burdens.
Ban Xia, upon seeing Meng Qianqian, tears streamed down her face, "Miss!"
After being apart for some time, Meng Qianqian showed little change, while Ban Xia seemed simpler and more unadorned.
She was tanned, like a little orange.
"Miss…"
She wept uncontrollably.
Meng Qianqian gently patted her back, "I'm fine, don't worry."
Tan'er gestured with her fingers, "Exactly, you better worry about yourself, you've been sick for three days!"
"Is that so?"
Meng Qianqian quickly cupped her face, "No wonder you look so bad, let me take a look."
She took Ban Xia's pulse.
Ban Xia hurriedly said, "I don't, don't listen to Tan'er's nonsense."
After taking her pulse, Meng Qianqian said, "Your liver is stagnant, and stomach heat is excessive, I've run out of medicine, I will relieve it with acupuncture later."
Ban Xia, with a choking voice, said, "No need, I'm just worried about you, Miss. Seeing you makes all the problems disappear!"
Meng Qianqian smiled, "It still needs treatment, wasn't it hard?"
Ban Xia shook her head, "Not at all! I'm very strong!"
Tan'er put a bundle on her shoulder.
Thud!
Ban Xia knelt down.
...
The group, having reunited in the desert, didn't rush to continue but found a water source nearby and rested under the open sky.
Meng Qianqian briefly recounted the events after being taken by Shan Cheng.
She stroked the hairpin in her hand, "In short, that's it."
Chen Long solemnly said, "Since we have Mother's keepsake with us, I'm sure Father will e to find us."
