Nan Yan and Hua Shifang administered acupuncture to Shen Junqing and Bai Chen respectively.
They had been in a deep slumber for far too long, their consciousness trapped in a state of unconsciousness. There was no telling how long it would take for them to awaken on their own.
Only through acupuncture stimulation could they be roused from their prolonged slumber and hasten their recovery.
Shen Junqing felt as though he had traversed through a seemingly endless dream. Within this dream, he relived the shadows of his childhood, memories he dared not revisit. He felt as though he were trapped in an icy abyss, where the coldness enveloped him entirely.
He nearly succumbed to the negativity, his mind teetering on the brink of madness. Just as he felt himself descending into the abyss of his memories, a beam of light suddenly illuminated the darkness, guiding his tormented soul, urging him to break free from his shackles and save himself.
“Third Brother, can you hear me?” Nan Yan’s voice trembled with excitement as she softly addressed the man who had just opened his eyes on the sickbed. Shen Junqing’s eyes appeared vacant and lost, as if he were still lost in his own world, unable to hear Nan Yan’s words.
“Third Brother, can you hear me?” Nan Yan’s heart sank slightly as she nervously reached out to wave her hand in front of his eyes.
Gradually, his eyes focused, and Shen Junqing blinked, finally recognizing the person before him.
“Yanyan?” Shen Junqing had just awakened and his vision was still blurry, relying on his instincts and memories to confirm.
With a hoarse voice, roughened from disuse, he struggled to speak.
“Third Brother, it’s me,” Nan Yan gently held his thin, bony hand, her eyes moist with emotion. “I’m sorry for letting you sleep for so long…”
“Wait…” Shen Junqing felt a haze lingering in his mind, his consciousness lingering in the headquarters of the Seven Deadly Sins when he was being tormented. He awakened earlier than Bai Chen.
Bai Chen persisted until Li Yuan went to rescue him, only then did he lapse into unconsciousness, so he knew some of the situation.
Shen Junqing tried to clear his mind, squinting his eyes as he looked at the girl in front of him.
“Yanyan, have you been abused by that despicable Qin Lu? Why have you become so thin?”
Qin Lu, who was watching from the side, remained silent.
“Yanyan went through all this to save you,” Qin Lu stepped forward, embracing Nan Yan possessively. “Now that you’re both safe, you don’t have to burden her anymore.. I’ll take care of her!”
