"Is he still not awake? This isn't like him—let me check."
"…Yuzhen… Yuzhen… If you sleep like this, we'll be late for the entrance exam."
Hearing a familiar voice, Long Yuzhen slowly regained consciousness. Seeing Xian Ren standing in front of him left him utterly bewildered. He clearly remembered drinking the poison—remembered setting off on his journey to the afterlife alongside Chen Zoe. Then how is this possible?
'Is this a dream?' Unable to process what was happening, he looked around the room in a daze.
"Are you still half-asleep?"
"Yuzhen, we don't have much time. Quickly, get ready!" Ying Yue urged impatiently, tossing clothes into a sack.
"To where?" Long Yuzhen asked.
The room went dead silent. Ren and Yue both stopped what they were doing and turned to look at him.
"I told you not to give him that stuff," Yue snapped, throwing a pillow in Ren's direction. "Look at him. He's completely out of it."
