The familiar light clung to Xiao Jinsheng and made her figure fade increasingly from Shi Xie's perspective.
It resembled the beam that had lit up out of nowhere and shone into his arms on the beach yesterday.
And as the warm light condensed and formed, what appeared in his embrace was Xiao Jinsheng.
"Wasn't it supposed to be 48 hours?" Shi Xie stared at Xiao Jinsheng's already semi-transparent figure amid the glow, his voice trembling in panic.
Xiao Jinsheng looked down at her fading form and thought of Bai Yan.
According to the timeline told by the Insect Brain to Bai Yan, she should still have over twenty hours left in this timeline.
Evidently, the Insect Brain could take Bai Yan back seven years.
It also had the ability to send Bai Yan back prematurely.
With Bai Yan's personality, her aim this time was Shi Xie. She wouldn't return before achieving her goal; surely, she wouldn't give up so easily.
