After a session of massage, Xu Yulan broke out in a cold sweat in her deep sleep. The sudden chill startled her awake, and she was slightly disoriented at first. But when she saw Liu Ergou standing before her, she instantly became fully alert.
Without a moment's hesitation, Xu Yulan threw herself into Liu Ergou's arms and began to sob uncontrollably. "Oh, Er Gou!" she cried. "You scared me to death! I thought I'd never see you again!"
Looking at Xu Yulan crying so sorrowfully in his arms, Liu Ergou gently patted her back and whispered, "It's alright, Sister-in-law. It's okay now. It's all over."
Eventually, comforted by Liu Ergou, Xu Yulan finally calmed down. Looking at her composed state, Liu Ergou was about to ask her what had happened and why she had been kidnapped by Sixth Master and Wu Dahu. However, he discovered that she had fallen asleep in his arms.
With a soft sigh, Liu Ergou cautiously placed her back onto the bed and went outside alone.
