It's exhausting to calculate these things.
Without enemies, life is no longer filled with fear.
Jiang Huaizhi held her tightly. "Yes, I understand. Jiang Li, I will give you the peaceful life you want."
The two leaned against each other, relying on one another.
There was a knock on the door.
Lotus's voice came in: "Young master, madam, Master Song has arrived."
Gu Jiangli left Jiang Huaizhi's embrace and sat on the bed. "Master Song is here? Did he come to see the child?"
Jiang Huaizhi nodded in agreement, "That should be it."

"Now that the child has been born, as an elder, I should do my part. This is just a small token of my appreciation, please accept it."

Jiang Huaizhi and Gu Jiangli were suddenly taken aback.
So that's what it was about.
Indeed, Master Song was only supposed to stay at the City Lord's Mansion for three days, and now that time had come, it was time for Nan Yu to leave home.
