Wu Ying suddenly restrained his emotions, calming down as his gaze slowly swept over the women and girls before him. With a leisurely tone, he said:
"A hometown is a strange thing. Although it is not necessarily the place where one spends their entire life, you still feel that everything from your body and mind to your very desires is a part of it. Its name is tightly bound to yours, much like your name is bound to your shadow. You do not belong to this land; even if you learn its dialects, follow its rhythms, dye your hair, or change your skin tone, it is all useless, because your soul and blood do not belong here. In the past, I truly always felt like a wandering ghost, drifting everywhere, with no one to rely on and nowhere to turn. But now, I have all of you, and my heart is filled with warmth and fulfillment."
His voice was deep and rich with magnetic resonance, every single word carrying profound emotion. His eyes revealed a wistful reflection on the past and hopeful anticipation for the future.
