If time is running short, I can still make it home to destroy the letter I left for Charlie. But if too much time has passed, he might have uncovered my secret…
Noticing Charlie’s nervousness, Lin Wan’er (ni) quickly reassured him, saying, “Brother Charlie, don’t be anxious! I just heard an explosion in the southern suburbs, and you showed up at the hot spring just momentster. It’s only been half an hour since you got here.” Hearing this, Charlie finally felt a wave of relief wash over him.
Remembering something from his earlier murmurs, Lin Wan’er (ni) suddenly smiled and eximed, “Oh! The pill!”
She quickly sprang to her feet and retrieved the four cents Charlie had left her from the wooden box beside the bed—the Third Pills.
Returning to Charlie, she held the elixir up to his lips, saying with a smile, “Brother Charlie, look! The elixir you gave to Wan’er is just what we need right now!”<h3 style="background-color:DodgerBlue">
Charlie replied awkwardly, “But the things I gave you are useless to you. I can’t possibly take them…”
With a beaming smile, Lin Wan’er (ni) insisted, “Brother Charlie, you don’t need to be so formal with me. After all, you saved my life, and this pill was given by you!”
Without waiting for Charlie to respond, she promptly ced the pill in his mouth.
As the elixir dissolved, its pure medicinal effects enveloped Charlie, providing immediatefort throughout his body. His oncepletely immobile form began to regain some movement.
However, his injuries were still severe. With such a small dose of medicine, a full recovery was far from reach. The damage to his bones, meridians, and dantian remained serious. At this moment, he felt utterly powerless—he doubted even a three-year-old child would struggle to defeat him.
Moreover, the spiritual energy within him hadpletely vanished, and this type of medicine wouldn’t restore it. Only by returning to the Champs Elysees Hot Spring Vi and taking the Remodeling Pill and Peiyuan Pill could he hope to recover fully.
Still, he couldn’t focus on the pill right now; there were too many questions swirling in his mind that he hoped Lin Wan’er (ni) could answer.
So, he asked again, “Miss Lin, how did I end up here?”
Lin Wan’er (ni) smiled gently, pointing to the ring on his middle finger. “The reason you appeared here, Brother Charlie, is because of that ring I gave you.”
Charlie nced at the ring, frowning as he questioned, “But what does that have to do with any of this?”
With a smile, Lin Wan’er (ni) replied, “It has everything to do with it! That ring is what brought you to me.”
At her words, Charlie felt a surge of astonishment!
He murmured, “A simple ring can transport me here? How is that even possible?!”
Lin Wan’er (ni) chuckled before bing serious. “Brother Charlie, this ring does much more than just bring you here. Although I don’t know everything you went through to arrive, I can say with certainty that it saved your life.”<fn904e> Readplete version only at find·novel</fn904e>
Charlie,ing back to himself, blurted out, “You’re right… With my strength, it would have been impossible for me to escape by chance and still be alive here. It’s all thanks to this ring…”
Lin Wan’er (ni) nodded slightly, smiling as she continued, “This ring possesses a powerful ability; it can transport you to the person you wish to see most during your most perilous moments. No matter how far apart you are, as long as you think of her in your heart, the ring will bring you before her in an instant!”
