He had a feeling that if Xue Yan's consciousness hadn't been reborn in Da Ling and was in another world, then there must have been a knot in his heart from his previous life. That knot was… To allow his family to be happy and to have a chance at living again.

Xue Yan wasn't in a hurry to answer. Instead, he glanced at Jiang Yue first. Seeing Jiang Yue nod her head, it was clear that she wanted him to say it. Only then did he nod his head and say, "They're still alive."

"Are they… Doing well?" Shi Yuan immediately asked.

Xue Yan nodded again. "They're living very well now."

Only then did Shi Yuan smile and mutter, "That's good, that's good…" His heart finally felt a little more at ease, and his hands were no longer clenched into fists under his sleeves.
