That evening, she went home first.
Grandma Qin had made a spread of delicious dishes.
Ginseng and black chicken soup, crab roe dumplings, cherry pork with yam, and a pot of mulberry and chrysanthemum herbal tea to go with it.
Shen Ningning first secretly stored it all away in the Immortal Realm before heading to the palace to visit Mo Lingwei.
Dusk had settled, and the stars were beginning to twinkle.
This time, the guards didn't even search Shen Ningning, allowing her to climb the steps and run toward the Sunlight Tower.
"Brother! I'm here!" the little one called out, her face bright with happiness.
She stood at the window, calling out for a long time, but there was no response.
"Brother?" Shen Ningning had no choice but to call out again.
The Sunlight Tower remained completely silent. The little one stood on her tiptoes and peered inside.
She saw Mo Lingwei lying motionless on the ground.
Shen Ningning cried out in alarm, "Brother fainted!"
