The man paused for a moment, and Liu Yin asked in confusion, "What are you thinking about?"
The girl's soft voice rang in his ears, and Xiao Hechuan came back to his senses, subconsciously raising a smile, "It's nothing."
"I'm just thinking about where we'll go after we leave here."
Xiao Hechuan hadn't been to many places, so he really didn't know where to go after leaving the Xiao residence.
Just now, his thoughts suddenly changed.
"After I leave here, I want to marry you," the man said softly, a complex expression on his face.
In truth, he was certain that Liuyin wouldn't refuse, but he still desperately wanted a definite answer from her.
Only in this way can he avoid thinking of himself as despicable, even though he didn't think that way at the beginning.
"Okay," Liu Yin replied sweetly, "You already agreed to be my husband."
Upon hearing Liu Yin's reply, Xiao Hechuan couldn't help but smile slightly. He reached out and touched his chest, speaking softly.
"Come out after you leave this place."
He only discovered this when he was changing clothes that morning; a black snake had inexplicably appeared on his chest, almost covering his entire chest.
The moment Xiao Hechuan saw the mark, he knew it must be Liuyin; so her true form was a snake.
Xiao Hechuan packed up quickly, since some things didn't need to be sorted and could be directly put into his storage ring.
Without hesitation, the man walked out of the courtyard, preparing to leave the Xiao residence.
Actually, this was earlier than the time he had told Liuyin, but he couldn't wait any longer. Besides, he would have no regrets about leaving the Xiao residence now.
Many people saw Xiao Hechuan leave, but they only dared to stand aside.
The servants who had been serving in Xiao Hechuan's courtyard also saw him leave, and suddenly felt a sense of relief that they had left early.
Xiao Hechuan's departure proceeded without any obstacles, likely because Xiao Yuncheng had given prior instructions.
Or perhaps it was that saying that had spread throughout the Xiao family that made them realize that Xiao Hechuan's status was not what it used to be.
In aristocratic families, there is never any true affection; interests are the strongest bond.
After leaving the Xiao family, Xiao Hechuan inexplicably felt a little lighter, as if he had unloaded some burden.
He had already decided where he wanted to go, and asked Liuyin in his mind, "Do you want to go to Jingzhou? The flowers there are very beautiful."
Liu Yin had no complaints, so she replied, "Okay."
“Then let’s go there,” Xiao Hechuan replied softly, a slight smile playing on his lips.
Liu Yin also saw the smile on his face. Although she was in the space, she could still see what was happening outside.
Liu Yin rubbed her eyes, making sure she wasn't seeing things. "Aren't you sad to leave here?"
She thought Xiao Hechuan would be very reluctant to leave this place.
Although she was somewhat surprised that the man would agree to leave with her, she also thought that Xiao Hechuan would be reluctant to part with her.
After all, it's only the first day.
According to the plot, Xiao Hechuan never left the Xiao family after his summoning failed.
However, as the male protagonist gradually gained his father's favor, his status in the Xiao family became lower and lower, even somewhat awkward.
What the Xiao family needs is an heir who can lead them to become the head of a prominent family, not a flawed heir.
