"Unfortunately, she will never know."

As he spoke, the dagger stabbed straight at the uncle's chest, but the uncle just looked at him quietly, as if he were looking at an unreasonable child.

The blade paused just as it was about to tear through the clothes. Lu Yulan watched from the side, her heart nearly stopping as she did so.

Seeing the skeleton scoff, throw away the dagger in its hand with disdain, and go into the house, Lu Yulan finally caught up with the uncle.

"Are you alright?"

"It's alright, it's an old grudge, it'll be fine once it's been resolved."

Lu Yulan thought about what had just happened, and it didn't seem like an old grudge at all, but rather like that of mortal enemies.

In the living room.

Liu An, still half asleep, heard the noise and followed, only to find a group of punks in the room.

Then, finding Lu Yulan in the crowd, he exclaimed with delight, "Miss Lan, you're back!"

"Did I know it wasn't you as soon as the verdict came out? You must be alright..."

This was the first time Lu Yulan had ever seen Liu An speak so fluently, it was a pity...

Lu Yulan didn't say anything, but Xiao Wu next to her just chuckled.

"Four-eyes, you're overthinking it. Your Miss Lan has already been expelled from the Empire, and this place is about to be auctioned off. You'd better leave now."

Liu An's eyes widened in disbelief as he looked at Lu Yulan. "Really?"

"real."

She followed without resistance, wanting to settle them in. Chen Ping's family was still living here. Although they had been expelled from the empire, they had never wronged her. She was a person who clearly distinguished between good and evil.

"So, you and Chen Ping should leave as soon as possible. Miracle has been sealed off, and my cash flow is also... But you and Chen Ping should split those recipes and secret formulas. Then leave here and start a new life."

No matter how well Gu Luobing explained it, she still needed to make her own plans. She was the one who brought them here one by one, and now…

Liu An was stunned for a moment, almost at a loss for words. He didn't have a deep impression of what happened eighteen years ago, but he was aware of the oppressive atmosphere that permeated the empire.

He could be considered an upright person, and he knew that he should follow the empire's orders at this time. However, Miss Lan was only eighteen or nineteen years old, and was in the prime of her youth.

She couldn't change what happened eighteen years ago.

If Le'er asks him about it later, how should he answer?

He had never had much courage in his life, but this time, he wanted to follow his heart.

"What about Miss Lan? Miss Lan has been banished and will have to wander from now on. Anyway, the ingredients we prepared haven't been sold yet. I'll help Miss Lan pack them up. You take everything you can with you from Rose Star. I'll leave when the new master arrives. Just treat it as a long journey."

Lu Yulan was taken aback. Perhaps her period was approaching and she was feeling sentimental. She hadn't cried when she parted with her younger brother and the others, but now…

Lu Yuanhong held the little girl's hand. "Thank you, Liu An."

"You're welcome, I'll go down first."

He turned and left, not wanting to create too much of a tense atmosphere.

Lu Yulan looked up and blinked. "Uncle, are you leaving with me?"

"Heh, I don't want him."

The skeleton sneered. He came here today to settle accounts, not to watch a romantic drama. What was this all about? How annoying.

"If Miss Lan is leaving, I will naturally go with her."

"Shameless! How dare you call her Miss Lan? I'm asking you, you dead man, is Lu Yulan that person's daughter?"
