After arriving at the city lord's mansion, she did not go directly inside, but instead had someone summon Xie Jiaxun.
Xie Jiaxun was quite pleased with her arrival.
"Zhiwan, what brings you here? I was just thinking of going to the clinic to see you tomorrow."
She shook her head slightly and gave a bitter smile.
"Jiaxun, I'm leaving."
"Go? Where are you going?"
Xie Jiaxun looked at her with a puzzled expression.
"You just got back, where are you going?"
Seeing that he asked urgently, she replied directly:
"The Luo Family Clinic has already been sold by Old Lady Luo. I want to take my family away from Phoenix City and live somewhere else."
She was even unwilling to call Grandma Luo "grandmother" anymore.
Xie Jiaxun looked at her with great surprise.
“The Luo family clinic has been sold, but you can buy another one elsewhere. If that doesn’t work, I’ll talk to my father and have one of our shops cleared out for you. You won’t have to leave Phoenix City.”
"No, thank you."
She chuckled and shook her head.
“Jiaxun, I’m here today to say goodbye. I’m very grateful for your care of me and my family over the years.”
"Zhiwan, please don't leave. If you leave, I really don't know where else I can go besides the City Lord's Mansion."
Seeing Xie Jiaxun's anxious expression, she couldn't help but offer some words of advice:
"Jiaxun, you are the young city lord. There are many girls in this city who like you. I hope you can find a girl you like, get married and have children soon, and I also hope that when we meet again, we will see you happy."
"But……"
He wanted to keep her, but he couldn't find a reason to.
She had told him long ago that she wouldn't like him.
For so many years, he could only keep his love for her hidden in his heart, never daring to express it.
He was afraid that if he confessed his feelings to her, she would never talk to him again.
He originally planned to continue like this until one day she was moved by him, or until she wanted to find someone to rely on, then he would confess his feelings to her.
But now it seems that none of that is possible.
Once she leaves, given her temperament, it will be very difficult for her to return to Phoenix City, and it will be really hard for him to see her again.
"Zhiwan, please don't leave. Just stay, and I'll find you the best shop..."
"Home Search".
She interrupted him.
"Jiaxun, after all these years of knowing each other, you know my temper. No one can stop me from doing what I want to do. I'm not here to discuss this with you, but to say goodbye. We're leaving first thing tomorrow morning. Take care!"
She left him with those words, gave him a slight smile, and then turned and left.
“Zhiwan…”
He called her name again, and she turned to smile at him, "Xie Jiaxun, you will be happy, good luck."
Her smile, like a flower blooming in spring, instantly filled his heart.
He had known her for over four years, and he had waited for her for four years. Now he had finally woken up to the truth, and he suddenly realized that he and she were just friends, and could never become the kind of relationship he wanted.
He nodded, his eyes reddening, and replied nonchalantly:
"Luo Zhiwan, I'll see you off tomorrow..."
She smiled knowingly, turned and walked forward, waving to him as she did so.
He watched her retreating figure, a deep sadness welling up inside him...
...
Grandma Luo knew everything that had happened to the Luo family.
As night fell, she sat calmly in the main hall of the Luo family, looking completely at ease.
The maid beside him whispered a reminder.
"Madam, they are staying at the Phoenix Inn. Should I go and invite them back?"
"No, please."
Old Mrs. Luo immediately glared at the maid beside her.
"They have the nerve to leave, so don't even think about coming back easily. I, this old woman, never expected that heaven would help me, that they would all be swindled out of their silver notes. Now they're homeless, let's see how they dare to talk back to me!"
"What if they really leave?"
"Hmph, they're penniless, where can they go? Go to sleep, they'll be kneeling back begging me tomorrow morning. Then I'll definitely kick Luo Zhiwan and that little bastard out. My Luo family can only tolerate members of the Luo family."
As she spoke, she raised her eyebrows triumphantly, leaning on her cane and supported by her maid, as she walked towards the back room.
To Grandma Luo's surprise, the next morning, Luo Zhiwan packed up her things and left Phoenix City with her family.
When the maid told her the news, her face immediately turned pale.
All night she thought about how when Luo Tianhe came to beg her with his wife and children, she would teach him a lesson and let him know that from now on, she should be in charge of everything in this family.
She also wanted Luo Zhiwan to leave the Luo family with her little bastard child, whether they had to beg for food or sleep on the streets, she would never let them stay in the Luo family again.
But to her surprise, they were actually going to leave the city.
"Quick, find me a carriage, I need to go take a look..."
The girl looked at her with some difficulty.
"Madam, if we go to the city now to find a carriage and then come back to pick you up, they will probably have already left the city. You didn't go last night, and it will be too late if you go now."
"Shut up."
She looked up at the little girl in front of her and scolded her sternly:
'You brat, I'm your master! How dare you lecture me?'
The little girl quickly shook her head, clearly feeling guilty.
“Madam, that’s not what I meant. You should stop making a fuss. What if they can’t make it out there one day? They might come back. If you go now, the result will be the same as before they left yesterday. Not only will you not be able to get them back, but you’ll also be furious.”
