Qi Zhifang was so embarrassed she wanted to disappear into the ground. Why did she always run into Xiao Dai when she was at her most awkward moment? Seeing her like that, Xiao Dai didn't ask any further questions and changed the subject, "Sister, where are you going? You have so many things to carry, let me help you!"

Qi Zhifang nodded, then shook her head, and stood there helplessly. She was over fifty years old and had nowhere to go. If Xiao Dai knew this, she would lose her self-esteem.

Xiao Dai smiled and said, "Why don't you settle down at my old family house first before making any further plans? Don't worry, I won't be staying there!"

Qi Zhifang wanted to say no, but she really didn't know where to go. She was crying with tears streaming down her face, seemingly both refusing and welcoming. After a moment of silence, Qi Zhifang said, "Xiao Dai, you're back?"

Xiao Dai chuckled. "Yes! I'm back! I did a few good deeds there, risking my life to capture enemy agents a few times, and my sentence was reduced. I finally managed to come back, only to find out that my whole family is dead..."

Qi Zhifang's face was burning with discomfort. Xiao Dai put her down at the door of a small room, took off her luggage, handed her a key, and said, "Sister, you can stay here for now. I have things to do! If you've settled in somewhere else, just leave the key with Aunt Liu next door!"

"Thank you so much, Xiao Dai!" Qi Zhifang was genuinely grateful. After watching Xiao Dai politely leave, she came in and was overjoyed to see the two rooms and the kitchen. Heaven helps those in need! She put everything away and tidied up. Her resolve to marry Xiao Hu wavered again. Why did Xiao Dai appear so timely and even help her?

I didn't sleep a wink in this room all night, just thinking about this one question all night!
