"Wah... Master is a bastard!"
Li Wuxian was full of life in her dream, but in reality she was still a sickly invalid. Her voice was soft and weak; she did not even have the strength to curse properly.
The pitiful sight of her, tears clinging to her face like pear blossoms after rain, made An'an's maternal instincts overflow. Holding her, An'an comforted her, "Your Majesty, don't cry, don't cry. It was only a nightmare..."
