Nanxing escaped from Peony Garden with the mute girl, using Lin Nan's car. Pursued by guards, Nanxing drove erratically on a mountain road, narrowly avoiding falling off a cliff. Jing Tian arrived via helicopter and rescued them just in time, lifting Nanxing and the mute girl to safety.

Our egress from the front doors of the vehicle was rendered impossible. Had it not been for Lu Heng and Xiaoyi bracing the rear of the car, the jarring turmoil from the mute girl and me attempting to clamber from the front would have sent us plummeting.

My hands instinctively covered my eyes; I couldn't bear to witness the car again, the residual fear still palpable.

Gao Da's voice resonated deeply, "Master Si, escort Nanxing away immediately. Lu Heng and I will remain to manage the situation!"

Jing Tian gave a nod. "Very well, let us not rouse suspicion for now."

Together, Jing Tian and Xiaoyi, who guided the mute girl, boarded the helicopter.

As we ascended, I glanced down, observing the car being pushed off the mountainside. It dawned on me that Gao Da and Lu Heng were likely orchestrating a scenario to make it appear as though the mute girl and I had perished over the cliff.

It was clear the ordeal was far from concluded.

Once aboard, Jing Tian embraced me tightly. Disregarding the presence of others, he meticulously checked me over before placing a gentle hand on my lower abdomen. "Nanxing, are you girls alright?"

A tearful smile graced my lips as I shook my head slightly. "Jing Tian, my stomach aches. I'm so worried about my baby."

Tears continued to stream down my face.

A dull ache persisted in my lower abdomen.

Jing Tian held me close. "It's alright, it's alright. Mr. Li is already waiting for us. We'll be home soon."

Time became a blur; I lost consciousness before the helicopter even touched down.

Upon waking, a moment of disorientation washed over me.

"You're awake?" Jing Tian's voice, thick with emotion, reached me.

Turning my head, I beheld the face I had yearned for incessantly. For a fleeting instant, the line between dream and reality blurred.

I reached out, my fingers tracing the contours of Jing Tian's face. He looked gaunt, his face shadowed with stubble.

"Jing Tian, you've grown a beard," I murmured, noticing the slight hoarseness in my own voice.

Jing Tian grasped my hand, pressing a kiss to his lips before bringing it to his cheek. The prickle of stubble against my palm sent a strangely comforting sensation, grounding me in reality.

"Nanxing, I was terrified. If anything had happened to you, I wouldn't have known what to do. The trials bestowed upon us by fate were too cruel," Jing Tian confessed, his voice catching.

My awareness slowly returned. "Jing Tian! The baby! Do I still have the baby?" I exclaimed, a surge of hope mixed with anxiety.

I pulled my hand away, placing it on my lower abdomen. My breath hitched in surprise; a slight swell was discernible beneath my thin pajamas.

My gaze met Jing Tian's, questioning.

He nodded, climbing onto the bed and pulling me into an embrace. His hand rested gently on my abdomen. "You were unconscious for half a month. Mr. Li did everything he could to safeguard our child. Rest assured, they are well. Your own condition was precarious, affecting the fetus. Fortunately, they have been sustained by the Phoenix Blood. Even in your unconsciousness, your maternal instincts are strong. The Phoenix Blood cherishes them. Nanxing, you are a remarkable mother!"

"Them?" The plural pronoun registered immediately.

"Nanxing, you're carrying twins," Jing Tian conveyed, softly stroking my hair.

I remained frozen in astonishment.

Jing Tian continued to groom my hair, offering gentle pats. "Mr. Li indicated an unusual pulse. These children may be twins, and possibly possess innate gifts."

I whispered, "Whether they have gifts matters little. Just healthy babies will suffice."

The journey through this pregnancy had been fraught with peril. Moreover, half of my Phoenix Blood was tainted, and its potential impact on the children gnawed at my peace of mind.

"Do not fret. The children are robust. However, you must prioritize your own recovery henceforth," Jing Tian sighed, his words laced with concern.
