"Don't think I'll fall for your lies. I'm not a three-year-old who would believe your nonsense."
"Yi Chenli will not agree; he clearly knows what I'm thinking."
"Yes! You must have lied to me. You little rascal, you've gone bad too, you've learned to lie to the young lady."
"..."
An Yuan'er talked to herself for a long time, chasing away the unease and uncertainty in her heart.
Guoguo cried and said, "Guoguo didn't lie to Miss, it's all true, really. Miss, Guoguo knows you like the Sixth Prince, but after we go home, it's not like we'll never see each other again. If you want to come back and stay for a few days, you can always come back."
An Yuan'er shook her head, unwilling to believe it: "He won't let me leave, no, you're all big liars, I want to ask him myself, I want to ask him myself."
An Yuan'er was so eager to know the answer that she didn't even have time to put on her shoes. Barefoot, she hurriedly pushed open the door and ran out in a panic.
Just as he was leaving, he bumped into An Huishou.
"Little sister, where are you going?"
An Yuan'er had no time to explain and hurriedly ran to the door of the next room.
"Knock knock knock!"
An Yuan'er pounded on Yi Chenli's door urgently, but after knocking for a long time, there was no response from inside.
An Yuan'er immediately realized that Yi Chenli was usually reading in his study at this time, so she changed direction and ran towards the study.
Guoguo chased after her, saying, "Miss, slow down! The ground is sharp and cold, put on your shoes!"
Guoguo was still carrying An Yuan'er's shoes in her hand.
An Huai shook her head at Guo Guo: "Forget it, don't chase after her. That girl won't believe it unless she sees it with her own eyes. Let her go, let her give up on it herself, and she can go back in peace."
An Huaishou and An Chaoli didn't want to take An Yuan'er away in this way. But these two were the people who loved An Yuan'er the most, and they had tried every possible method to delay for nearly a year before making this decision.
If it weren't for their help, An Yuan'er would have gone back a year ago.
Ultimately, the person who suffered the most from this decision was that person!
An looked back towards the study, her brows furrowed with unresolved sorrow.
It was a bitterly cold winter day. Although it hadn't snowed, there was still some snow on the ground, making it slippery and bitterly cold.
An Yuan'er slipped and fell several times, her light yellow dress getting stained with mud, but she ignored the pain and the cold, and ran forward with all her might.
"Yi Chenli, Yi Chenli..." An Yuan'er kept calling his name as she ran.
Until—for the first time, she arrived at this destination in such a short time.
The study door was tightly closed, and Li Gui was standing outside the door.
Li Gui flicked the whisk in his hand, avoiding An Yuan'er's gaze. An Yuan'er couldn't understand his emotions.
"Master knows that today is Miss An's homecoming day, so he specially instructed this old servant to see Miss An off."
Li Gui clapped his hands, and in the blink of an eye, it seemed as if all the eunuchs and guards in the mansion had arrived, carrying boxes upon boxes of things.
The box was very large and heavy; it took two people to lift it.
At Li Gui's signal, the eunuchs and guards opened the box.
The contents of the box were gleaming gold, dazzling to the eye.
Li Gui said, "The Sixth Prince thanks Miss Yuan for her companionship over the years. This small gift was specially chosen for her by his master. He hopes that even after leaving Chenyang Palace, Miss will be well."
