Chapter 2 Memories (1)
Just as Qin Yaoyao was lost in thought, the door to the room creaked open unexpectedly. Qin Yaoyao looked closely and saw that it was her two personal maids—Yingchun and Banxia. Upon seeing that Qin Yaoyao had actually woken up, their eyes widened in disbelief, then their expressions turned to ecstatic joy. Perhaps due to their excitement, they accidentally made some noise. These sounds abruptly pulled Qin Yaoyao back to reality. Overwhelmed with emotion, their bodies trembled uncontrollably as they stumbled towards the bedside. Their eyes were filled with tears, but also with an overwhelming sense of joy and relief. Yingchun tightly grasped Qin Yaoyao's hand, her voice trembling slightly and choked with emotion: "Miss! You've finally woken up! It's truly a blessing from heaven! These past few days, we've been so worried and anxious!"
As she poured out her feelings, she gently wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes. Then, Yingchun quickly turned her head, her face beaming with joy, and urgently instructed Banxia, "Quickly! Go and inform Madam immediately that our young lady has awakened!" Her tone revealed undisguised excitement and joy, as if this news could uplift the entire world. Qin Yaoyao looked at the two maids before her with overflowing happiness. Although she knew she had returned to her fourteen-year-old self, she was completely unaware of the exact date. After a moment's thought, she turned to Yingchun and asked, "Yingchun, what is the date today?"
Upon hearing this, Yingchun's bright smile instantly froze, replaced by worry and concern. Her eyes widened, and she said anxiously, "Miss, what's wrong? Did you fall and damage your brain? Don't worry, I'll go and fetch the doctor right away!" Before she finished speaking, Yingchun had already hurriedly stood up and rushed towards the door.
Seeing Yingchun's panicked state, Qin Yaoyao quickly reached out to stop her, gently comforting her, "Don't be nervous, I'm fine. I just woke up and my thoughts are still a bit jumbled." Yingchun finally seemed to have a great weight lifted off her shoulders, letting out a long breath as if all the pent-up frustration in her heart had dissipated with that breath. She composed herself slightly before replying in a soft voice, "Miss, do you know what time it is now? It's the sixth day of the fourth month of the twenty-fifth year of Yuanhe! Just three days ago, at the Princess's flower-viewing banquet, you and Miss Liu accidentally fell into that pond together. Counting from that day, three whole days have passed, and you've remained unconscious, not waking up yet." As she spoke, Yingchun's voice choked with emotion, and her eyes reddened slightly. Hearing the words "Princess's residence," "flower-viewing banquet," and "fell into the pond," Qin Yaoyao frowned slightly, and a memory from the depths of her mind gradually surfaced before her eyes. That seemed to be an experience from a past life, and also a pain she could never let go of in her life.
At that flower-viewing banquet, the gears of fate began to turn. Qin Yaoyao was then an innocent and carefree young girl, happily attending the banquet. However, an accident suddenly struck—she accidentally fell into the pond! The icy water instantly swallowed her, and fear and despair enveloped her.
