"Yan... Yan Huan..."

Under the respirator mask, she parted her lips slightly and murmured a name.

It immediately caught the attention of a man beside the hospital bed.

Jiang Xiong blinked, showing a look of joy as he hurriedly attempted to press the nurse call button...

"Yan Huan?!"

The girl in hospital clothes suddenly opened her eyes and sat up in surprise.

"Ha... ha..."

She removed the respirator mask, looking around in confusion, searching for someone’s figure...

However, she only found herself in a high-grade private ward.

It was not only a single bed but also equipped with a luxurious sofa, shower, fridge, and various personal items.

Visibly, Bai Yi noticed a lot of flowers and gifts that seemed to be for her recovery.

Different cards and handwriting on them read: 𝙛𝓻𝒆𝓮𝒘𝙚𝙗𝒏𝙤𝙫𝓮𝒍.𝓬𝒐𝙢

"To the best Yiyi in the world, get well soon!"

"We are waiting for you to wake up — Yi Family Army."

"..."

Bai Yi stared blankly at the gifts, then shifted her gaze to see the promotional poster for "Girl Group Face-off" on the wall.

In it, Bai Yi was the C position...

"I... I’m back?"

Bai Yi was shocked, even feeling like she had entered an "if" line.

But when she looked at the digital clock on the side table, the time was...

"19:17"

Not the time she should have traveled to...

Bai Yi was bewildered, and with a thought, her hand slipped under the blanket, drawing out a pocket watch.

Her fingers gently caressed it, feeling the uneven crack on its surface.

Proving that everything before wasn’t a dream...

"Yiyi, you’re awake?!"

And beside her, Jiang Xiong’s voice pulled Bai Yi back to reality, making her quickly turn around and ask,

"Uncle Jiang, where... where am I now?"

"Yiyi, don’t move first, just lie down... I’ll call the doctor.."

"Uncle Jiang, where am I exactly? What’s today’s date?!"

"..."

Hearing Bai Yi’s anxious voice, Jiang Xiong blinked and reluctantly replied,

"Today... is July 27th..."

July...

27th?!

Isn’t that more than twenty days past Yan Huan’s birthday on July 1st?!

Causal Law Bomb...

"Where’s Yan Huan, Uncle Jiang?! How is Yan Huan?!"

"Uh..."

Upon hearing, Jiang Xiong blinked at the emotionally charged Bai Yi.

Then, bewilderedly replied,

"Yan Huan... who is that?"

"Eh?"

Upon hearing Jiang Xiong’s words, Bai Yi’s expression changed instantly.

She quickly waved her hand, explaining,

"It’s... Yan Huan! The President of the student council at Yuanyue Academy, a very handsome boy who often smiles... Didn’t you see him before?"

"Did I? Have I really met the President of Yuanyue Academy... I do remember meeting the President of your Xiuzhi Academy’s student council..."

"Xiuzhi Academy?!"

Upon hearing this, Bai Yi was completely bewildered.

Jiang Xiong sighed and looked at the girl in front of him with concern, doubting whether something was wrong with her mind,

"Yes, your mother originally wanted you to attend Yuanyue Academy, but you didn’t listen and went to Xiuzhi Academy...

"Just like how you didn’t sign with Yasaka Company when you were a child, but chose to sing instead... At that time, you made your mother so angry that she threw a big fit..."

As Jiang Xiong spoke, a flash of new memory entered Bai Yi’s mind.

But due to her unique constitution, it didn’t affect her original memory at all...

In that new memory, she saw a brand new life.

On the day of the audition when she was a child, she gained her first fan, her first recognition, and her first courage in life...

Thus, she was no longer timid as she was as a child, obeying Zuo Jiangqin, but focused on her musical creations.

She debuted in junior high, with the debut song "Fan A" created for an obscure fan at that time, which quickly went viral online...

In her first year of eighth grade, despite her mother’s objections, she stepped onto a stage offline for the first time.

As a guest performer at the first manga convention hosted by the Golden Lion Group, she was discovered by Golden Lion Entertainment and became a popular singer...

After becoming famous, Bai Yi gained more confidence and completely broke free from Zuo Jiangqin’s control.

Not only did she choose another school for high school, but she also moved out to live independently...

"..."

At this moment, when the image of a fan sitting on the ground with a trembling voice encouraging her appeared in her mind from many years ago...

A clear tear cascaded down from the corner of Bai Yi’s dazed eyes.

Perhaps, at that time, she did not know who it was...

But now, today, many years later...

She suddenly realized who that scarred, weak, yet smiling comforter who encouraged her was...

Bai Yi’s tears became increasingly uncontrollable while Jiang Xiong was still waiting for the nurse to arrive, explaining the events that had happened before,

"Over a month ago, you suddenly went missing. I couldn’t contact you, so I had no choice but to call the police.

"Then, taking the police to your rented apartment, only to find you unconscious on the floor...

"I sent you to the hospital, and you ended up sleeping for so many days..."

Over a month...

Bai Yi calculated and realized it was almost the day she decided to travel.

Which means, she indeed ended her journey and returned to the day she started traveling.

Time had returned to its proper course...

But, the problem?

Was it solved?

At this thought, Bai Yi’s little face was still filled with worry, anxiously trying to get out of bed,

"I... I need to find Yan Huan..."

"Who are you looking for Yan Huan? Wait, wait, wait, you should just lie down first... So, your sudden disappearance was related to this President of Yuanyue Academy?"
