She saw his back hanging by a wire.

But she was still incredibly nervous, afraid he might fall.

Finally, Ruan Tianling’s legs descended in front of her.

Jian Yufei didn’t dare to touch him: "Hurry down!"

Ruan Tianling landed on the balcony, untied the wire from his waist, jumped gracefully, and landed in front of her.

Jian Yufei suddenly lunged forward and hugged him—

"You scared me to death! Don’t ever do something so dangerous again!"

Ruan Tianling hugged her and laughed: "I originally planned to pretend to be an angel descending, but those wings were just too ridiculous."

So he had no choice but to come down like this.

He didn’t care about aesthetics, just hoped to look somewhat cool.

Jian Yufei looked up, and lightly hit his body: "Don’t do it again!"

"Okay." Ruan Tianling held her hand, his smile tender.

Fireworks were still bursting—

The two gazed into each other’s eyes, instantly losing themselves.

"Honey, your Tianling Star is back, are you happy?" Ruan Tianling caressed her face, his voice hoarse as he asked.

Jian Yufei smiled: "Happy. Why didn’t you tell me you’re back?"

"Didn’t I want to surprise you?"

"I think you gave me a surprise alright."

"Hmm?" Ruan Tianling didn’t understand.

"First you gave me joy, then a shock, and then joy again."

Ruan Tianling chuckled: "Did I really scare you just now?"

"Of course! I thought you fell."

"It was my fault, how should I make it up to you?"

"You tell me how to make it up."

As soon as she finished speaking, Ruan Tianling clasped the back of her head and kissed her fiercely—

These were the soft lips he’d dreamed of day and night.

With them against his, his heart finally felt content.

He released her a little, and picked her up in his arms.

"Which room is ours?"

Jian Yufei blushed slightly: "First on the right when you go out."

Ruan Tianling gave a mischievous smile, carried her toward the bedroom, and began their plan to start a family.

************

Last night was exhausting.

Jian Yufei slept soundly until morning, without even dreaming.

She opened her eyes and quickly turned to look at the spot beside her.

Empty...

Where was Ruan Tianling?

She remembered he had returned.

Were it not for the soreness reminding her of last night’s passion, she might have thought it was all a dream.

After washing up, Jian Yufei went downstairs, and on the way down, she saw Ruan Tianling chatting with her mother in the living room.

"How are things over there now?" Nangong Ruyue asked.

Ruan Tianling was about to answer, when he turned his head and saw Jian Yufei coming down.

He beckoned to her, and Jian Yufei quickly walked over and sat beside him.

In his eyes, there was an unintentional display of tenderness and deep affection.

Nangong Ruyue smiled, picked up her water glass, and took a sip with lowered eyes.

Jian Yufei looked at him the same way: "What are you talking about?"

Nangong Ruyue said: "I was asking Tianling about the situation at the castle."

Even though that place would no longer have anything to do with her.

But it was still her home, so she showed some concern.

Ruan Tianling then responded seriously: "There’s not much going on, but I heard a new heir has been chosen."

"Who?" Jian Yufei and Nangong Ruyue asked simultaneously.

Ruan Tianling replied casually: "Nangong Yi."

Jian Yufei was stunned—

Nangong Ruyue was perplexed: "Nangong Yi isn’t well, he won’t live past 21, otherwise Ansel wouldn’t have been chosen to inherit the family back then. Why choose him now, has his condition improved?"
