After three rounds of drinks, deep into the night, an unexpected visitor arrived at the medicine shop.
The wife of the City Lord, taking advantage of the quiet of the night, came alone, wearing a bamboo hat, to the medicine Shop for a secret talk with Lin Qingluo.
“Qilin's nightmares began when she was five, she would have restless nights, shedding tears for no reason, crying and causing a fuss.”
Lady Mu, recalling past events with a sorrowful expression, said: “My husband and I feared that she was possessed, so we invited a monk from the Happiness and Longevity Temple to chant sutras for eighty-one days, but it had no effect.”
“Later, a respected figure from the Starlight Immortal Palace taught her a serene mantra song. Once she learned the song and played it once a day, she was able to sleep more peacefully at night. At least there wasn't any weeping, although she'd occasionally let out a few tears.”
Lin Qingluo frowned deeply: “Has Miss Mu ever told madam about what she sees in her dreams?”
“That child, when she was younger and not in good health, liked to stick with me, when I asked her, she would confide a little.”
Lady Mu's spirits fell: “As she grew older, she became more detached. When asked, she wouldn't reply and would just sit in the hibiscus forest of our rear garden playing the qin while secretly wiping her tears.”
“Madam Mu, to be frank about this matter….”
Lin Qingluo focused her thoughts, made a decision and expressed the suspicion in her heart.
“Past and Present lives?”
Lady Mu gasped, holding her chest and panting unevenly. When she was first confronted with the shocking secret, she found it hard to come to terms with it and needed time to digest it.
“Madam Mu, Miss Mu often cries, perhaps she has remembered the affairs of her past life.”
Lin Qingluo spoke slowly: “If madam is keen to find out, there is one method that I, as an immortal, can suggest that might be worth trying.”
“Please speak, Immortal Lin.”
Lady Mu's eyes showed her excitement: “Qilin's condition has troubled us for a long time, we urgently want to know the truth.”
” In that case….”
Lin Qingluo leaned forward, whispering her suggestion into Lady Mu's ear.
“Hmm, yes, all right.”
Lady Mu's eyes gleamed and she nodded repeatedly.
Once the two had agreed on the plan, Lady Mu felt a bit reassured. She put her bamboo hat back on and left the medicine shop.

Longyan City, City Lord's Mansion.
The remaining rays of the setting sun penetrated through the branches and leaves of the hibiscus flower tree, casting a faint glow over the girl playing the qin underneath.
Mu Qilin lightly stroked the strings of the qin, her eyes filled with tears and a sorrowful expression on her face, as though she was lost in her past memories.
Lin Qingluo transformed into the semblance of Feng Ling from her previous life and strolled leisurely in the direction of the qin music. She followed the winding path paved with pebbles amidst the hibiscus forest.
Once she arrived, she seemed to walk past the qin table unintentionally, without deliberately lingering.
A young man in black, with an upright posture and exceptional elegance, even his mere silhouette managed to capture the hearts of countless young girls.
Mu Qilin's entranced gaze suddenly gleamed; she looked at his tall and slender silhouette and displayed an unrestrainable excitement.
“Feng Lang, is that you?”
She got up from the qin table and staggered after him, grabbing the sleeve of Feng Ling's robe.
Feng Ling was taken aback, and slowly turned around under the shadows of the hibiscus tree, a hint of confusion on his handsome face.
The face that she remembered, handsome with its indifferent gaze, pierced Mu Qilin's heart.
“Feng Lang, you really don't remember me.”
She covered her face in agony, knelt on the ground, and cried uncontrollably: “Reincarnation, I am Shengge. My appearance has changed, I am no longer the Shengge you remember.”
