A total of thirty whole minutes passed.
During these thirty minutes, Gu Qianxue cried like a little girl. Her tears flowed as if a dam had broken and practically splashed all over Xie Feng's upper body.
She was clearly releasing all the sadness and pain she had felt throughout her eighteen years. Her tears, rather than joy, were mainly tears filled with complaints that had been held inside her unable to come out.
As for Xie Feng, he hugged her silently and naturally did not even care if his shirt was wet from her tears. All his attention was focused on Gu Qianxue.
He knew that words of encouragement would have little or no effect, so after the first few minutes, he simply sat on the bed and held her close to him, allowing her to cry on his chest at will.
As for the girls, none of them left and they stood there silently, not saying a word but expressing their support with their presence, trying to tell her that she was not alone.
It was only thirty minutes later that the disconsolate crying stopped.
Slowly and with her body trembling due to how shaken her emotions were, Gu Qianxue gently left Xie Feng's embrace.
Her eyes, freshly opened to the world, were puffy and red after so much crying. Her beautiful and charming face was completely drenched with heartbreaking tears to the point where her entire face had turned into a complete mess.
Even so, Xie Feng felt that she looked more beautiful than any other woman. He didn't care about her appearance as he slowly advanced and kissed her red lips gently to reassure her that he was there for her.
"Hehe!"
Although her body had become more charming and seductive than a mature woman, the smile Gu Qianxue made at that moment was as pure as that of a newborn baby and free from impurities of this world.
With a smile of relief and thanks to no one in particular for this miracle, Xie Feng could not help but remark, "Although your face is a mess, your smile at this moment is one of the most beautiful smiles I have ever seen in my entire life."
Like a happy little puppy, she sank into his arms again and began to rub her head against his chest soaked in her own tears as she softly murmured, "Now I can see the real you.... Now I can finally see... Xie Feng, I can see!"
"Mm." Xie Feng nodded softly as he patted her hair tenderly.
Suddenly, her shoulders shuddered again and she looked like she was about to burst into tears again.
Xie Feng simply let her cry at his side.
It was just that this time, her tears no longer contained any kind of sadness and only carried pure happiness and joy.

Thirty minutes later, Gu Qianxue had already finished showering to wipe away the tears that had covered almost all of her face.
As for Xie Feng, he had no choice but to shower again as his upper body was full of Gu Qianxue's tears.
Although Xie Feng proposed that they bathe together to save water, Han Xue Nai was not fooled and dragged him directly to the bathroom in his own room.
After the emotional moment calmed down a bit and the emotions were properly accentuated for the most part, the family that was previously two but currently consisted of six people gathered in the living room.
Xie Feng prepared a pot of tea and poured a cup for each lady before sitting down and pouring one for himself.
Feeling his care, all of them could not help but feel their hearts grow warm. Although this was just a small gesture, the fact that a tremendously powerful person like Xie Feng was willing to act as a servant and serve them all was something that only they could enjoy. This was a great proof of love from a certain point of view.
You should know that if Xie Feng wanted to and revealed his power, his status before the world would in no way be that of the president of the United States, who possessed countless nuclear weapons at his disposal.
The question was; could the first lady of the United States make her husband act as her personal servant? Probably not.
This was only a small gesture by Xie Feng, but in reality, it was treasured by each of them.
Even Yin Yue, who was a family friend, felt flattered and grateful.
Having no idea of the thoughts of the beautiful women in front of him, Xie Feng sat down and looked directly at Gu Qianxue.
After showering and sprucing up her previously disheveled appearance, Gu Qianxue was like a moving bomb; brimming with danger.
Her charm was dreadful to say the least. Although her eyes were still a bit red and puffy, they were so charming and bewitching that even the proud Shen Xinya had to admit that Gu Qianxue's eyes were more beautiful than her own.
With a bright red blouse making the effort to contain her upper body, Gu Qianxue's nipples form were in clear view... That's right, she wasn't wearing a bra.
Among the women Xie Feng knew, Xie Yao and Mu Wuying had the biggest breast size; especially Xie Yao. However, after undergoing such an abrupt change, Gu Qianxue's breasts had grown exponentially and had now even surpassed the size of Xie Yao's breasts.
As a result, all of Gu Qianxue's bras were now useless and even Xie Yao's bras could not contain her two huge mountains.
Therefore, Gu Qianxue had no choice but to temporarily go without support until tomorrow.
Xie Feng had to use all his willpower to look straight into her eyes as the deep red color of her blouse together with the beautiful view it partially concealed was too bewitching and enchanting.
"So, how are you feeling?" he asked softly.
With a cheerful smile and free from worries about life, Gu Qianxue replied, "I've never felt so good in my whole life!"
"I see... That's good." Xie Feng let out an inaudible sigh of relief and smiled.
At this moment, Gu Qianxue was like a real butterfly fluttering happily among the spring flowers. This was a great and huge joy not only for Xie Feng, but for everyone.
"I'll just ask just in case but... You don't know what happened to you do you?" Xie Feng questioned.
Gu Qianxue honestly shook her head. She simply had no idea what had happened. When she woke up after leaving the virtual world, she simply felt liberated and before she knew it she had her eyes open.
Upon hearing her explanation, everyone nodded in understanding, and no more questions were asked about the matter. It didn't matter whether Gu Qianxue knew what had happened or not; the important thing was that what had happened was a good thing.
That was more than enough for now.
The group of six headed to the kitchen and began to cheerfully prepare dinner.
Fortunately the villa's kitchen was spacious enough or else Xie Feng might definitely be forced to have to knock down a wall or two to make it bigger.
As they cooked, he was pleasantly surprised to discover that the proud princess Shen Xinya was actually an excellent cook; she didn't even lose to Xie Yao's cooking.
"There is no need to be so surprised. From a very young age, I practiced in the kitchen together with my mother to become a good wife and keep my man happy." Shen Xinya said with a casual smile. However, she looked at Xie Yao with triumphant eyes as if bragging about something.
Seeing sparks floating all over the room, Xie Feng didn't know whether to laugh or cry. However, he had no right to complain about anything since the main culprit here was undoubtedly him.
Gu Qianxue was undoubtedly the liveliest of them all. Her previously agile movements became even more expert and for every minute that passed or every task, she looked like she was evolving more and more.
She, who could do everything even without seeing, now that she could see naturally began to improve in all aspects.
After preparing dinner amidst laughter, competitions, and the occasional provocative word, thus creating a cheerful and lively atmosphere, everyone sat around the table.
"Big brother Xie Feng, could you bring two more dishes and two extra sets of silverware?" Xie Yao suddenly asked out of the blue.
"What for?" Xie Feng was dumbfounded.
Before Xie Yao could answer, the doorbell rang softly. This sound was all Xie Feng needed to understand what was happening.
Without another word, he headed to the kitchen with a smile and added another two dishes on the table.
On the other hand, Xie Yao went to greet the new guests.
The new guests were, naturally, Yao Mei and her butler.
The old man was someone Xie Feng had seen before. A man in his fifties with a very polite attitude.
After welcoming each other, they all sat down comfortably and began to dine.
The atmosphere was extremely lively and even a bit noisy sometimes. However, Xie Feng could not have been happier to see the smiles on Xie Yao and Gu Qianxue's faces.
Seeing them all interacting with each other, putting aside each other's statuses, and even getting along amidst healthy competitions, Xie Feng couldn't help but feel grateful for life in general.
To protect such a happy atmosphere, he was willing to do anything no matter how difficult or immoral and heartless it was.
