Seeing that Jiang Shouzhong had been delayed in returning, Pang was beside herself with worry, pacing like an ant on a hot pan.
She dared not step out of her home, clutching her son Hu tightly, stealing anxious glances through the crack of the door now and then, her expression laden with unease.

She hurriedly grabbed Hu's little hand and rushed to the neighboring house.
Upon entering the room, she saw the "little girl," who resembled a little immortal, sitting dazedly on the bed, her cheeks tinged with the rosy flush of someone newly awakened.
Yet, the little girl appeared somewhat lost.
"Child, you're awake?"
