Soon, Chen Mo drove the "Knight" off Highway 1 and onto the asphalt road leading to the manor. The iron gate ahead opened automatically as the "Knight" approached, and Chen Mo drove through the gate at the same speed, entering the passage between the tree walls.

Although the rain was heavy, the dense foliage of the trees on both sides of the passage formed a dome above the passage, blocking out the rain. Only a few raindrops dripped through the gaps in the leaves, shattered on the ground, and left wet marks.

The "Knight" traversed the tree-lined avenue strewn with fallen leaves and plunged back into the rain, revealing the vast and beautiful manor once more before Chen Mo.

October has arrived, and it is early autumn. The weather is gradually turning cooler, and the vast grassland in the manor has gradually turned from its original emerald green to a touch of gold. It is no longer so lively and vibrant, but it has gained a deeper and more profound charm.

Enveloped and cleansed by the misty autumn rain, the scene now possesses a refreshing tranquility.

But at the same time, a faint sense of loneliness and desolation also permeated this vast rain curtain.

There were no cattle, sheep, or horses on the vast grassland ahead, and the huge Castle on the mountaintop was now empty. At this moment, he was all alone in this world, and an unprecedented sense of loneliness rose in Chen Mo's heart.

Alone in this foreign land, traveling alone, with no one to confide in, all secrets hidden in my heart, I bear them all by myself.

However, Chen Mo quickly recovered from this mood and couldn't help but chuckle to himself. What was wrong with him? He was starting to feel sentimental about spring just because of an autumn rain.

It seems I've been too busy lately, but things at the company are mostly back on track, so I won't be so busy anymore. Once I get back from the next movie, I should take a good rest.

I've been busy with company matters lately, so it's not as relaxing as it was on that desert island.

However, Chen Mo was unaware that while he was lost in thought in his car, dozens of kilometers away in another "Knight," someone else was also stirred by the sudden autumn rain.

Autumn is said to be a melancholy season. An Ran in the car, looking at the hazy world shrouded in rain in the distance, a sense of sadness welled up in my heart.

I slowly stopped the car under a row of big trees by the roadside. Through the rain-drenched and blurred car window, I An Ran watched the yellow leaves falling in the rain and murmured to myself.

"Is it autumn?"

Almost four months have passed since the plane carrying Chen Mo crashed, and the season has changed from summer to early autumn, but there has still been no news of him.

Did he really die in the plane crash, and was all my persistence just wishful thinking and an unwillingness to accept the truth?

A deep sadness welled up from An Ran's heart, causing her heart to ache in waves, as if it were being tightly gripped, giving her a feeling of suffocation.

The belief that had supported her to live bravely in a foreign land suddenly collapsed at this moment. Her former optimism and strength were gone, replaced by hesitation, helplessness and confusion.

A profound loneliness and coldness enveloped her, chilling her to the bone, and the once familiar world outside the window seemed cold and alien.

At this moment, she realized that she was all alone in this unfamiliar world. The figure that had once held up the sky in her heart and made her fearless might really become a memory and could never be seen again!

Recalling every little detail from the past, two lines of tears involuntarily streamed down her cheeks, carrying a hint of coolness, and shattered on the back of her hand.

Looking down at the wet tear stains on the back of her hand, An Ran hadn't cried in many years, was overcome with grief. She lowered her head and slumped onto the steering wheel, her slender shoulders trembling beneath her white shirt, and began to weep silently.

She had never cried since Chen Mo saved her that night in high school. Even when she heard that Chen Mo had died in a plane crash, she firmly believed that he would be alright. But now she finally cried.

Just as An Ran was An Ran in her grief, a warm breeze suddenly blew out of the air conditioner vent, caressing An Ran's An Ran, jade-like skin, which was also as cold as jade. She felt a warm sensation, and her cold body gradually warmed up under the caress of the warm breeze.

The car stereo turned on by itself, and a soothing melody filled the car. The music was gentle and tranquil, causing An Ran to lift her tear-streaked face from her arms, a hint of confusion appearing on her face.

Why did the air conditioning and audio system in this car start up by themselves?

An Ran, who was grieving and lost because she thought that Chen Mo might really have died in the plane crash, gradually regained her composure under the influence of the gentle breeze and soothing music.

However, looking at the bleak wind and rain outside the window and the desolate streets covered with fallen leaves, An Ran couldn't help but feel a sense of desolation and helplessness, as if she were in a foreign land and had lost her support and reliance.

Only the small space inside the car sheltered her from the wind and rain, kept her from the autumn chill, and brought her a sense of peace with warmth and tranquility.

An Ran had no idea that the music playing in her car was the same song playing in Chen Mo's car!

In the manor, the "Knight" broke through the rain and climbed the winding mountain road to the top of the mountain. The Castle in the rain also looked different from usual.

The black tiles on the Castle roof and the yellow rocks on the walls were all soaked by the rain, making their colors even more intense and profound, and appearing even more majestic and magnificent in the hazy rain.

The heavy steel gate slowly rose, then slowly fell again after the "Knight" rushed in, completely shutting out the rainy world.

Chen Mo got out of the car and instead of going upstairs to his room, he went downstairs through the keypad door and entered the underground laboratory.

Another month has passed, and it's time for him to travel through time again. He wonders what world awaits him this time.

That's why Chen Mo suddenly decided to go to the company to inspect the work.

The company is operating normally and is in a state of rapid development. With Su Wan, Anna, Michael and others managing it, Chen Mo has nothing to worry about and can proceed with his next time travel with peace of mind.

Unexpectedly, a sudden autumn rain disrupted his emotions. Fortunately, he was determined and had strong mental strength, so he quickly recovered.

However, he was unaware that in this city, another person was weeping because of the drizzling autumn rain. But rather than because of the rain, it was because of him!

Of course, in a way, it was also because of him that An Ran was finally somewhat comforted.
