"Niannian, you didn't leave?" Wang Puan was both surprised and delighted.

"Where am I supposed to go?" Xu Nian was completely baffled by Wang Pu'an.

"Aren't you and Mu Qingqing going to leave this era and go home?" Wang Pu'an's words finally made Xu Nian understand why he was crying!

She was both annoyed and amused. "You knew I was going to leave this era, so why didn't you stop me this time? Are you willing to let me go?"

“I don’t want to, but Niannian, you’re not happy here. Your eyes only light up when you’re with Mu Qingqing.”

“Niannian, maybe you don’t even realize it yourself, but you don’t have much attachment to this world. You often just stare at the sky in a daze. If I don’t talk to you, you can sit alone with a pot of tea and watch the world go by all day.”

Wang Pu'an was naturally reluctant to let Xu Nian go, but he also didn't want Xu Nian to be depressed all the time.

If going home makes her happy, he'll suffer for a while and then let her go.

"Wang Pu'an, when did you find out that Mu Qingqing and I were going to leave this era?" Xu Nian always talked to Mu Qingqing about this when Wang Pu'an was not at home.

“Mu Qingqing has a very outgoing personality, and the two of you speak quite loudly, even though you sometimes lower your voices, it’s still loud enough for a hunter to hear clearly,” Wang Pu’an frankly admitted.

At first, he couldn't understand some of the words the two were using, but after hearing them more often, he gradually came to understand their meaning.

Then, about six months ago, he learned that someone was looking for Xu Nian, so he hurriedly put down what he was doing and went home.

He just happened to run into that group of people when he went back.

Standing at the gate of the courtyard, he heard the two talking about how much time they had left and when they would leave.

He knew then that he should let her go.

“Wang Pu’an, because of you, I’ve ruined my life.” Xu Nian said with mixed feelings.

"Hahaha! Niannian, you mean you're not leaving?" Wang Puan was as happy as a child.

He held Xu Nian in his arms, embracing the treasure he had lost and found again.
