"You little brat, you've really gotten bold. When did you start having ideas that go against the young lady?"
Guoguo and An Yuan'er are about the same age and have grown up together. An Yuan'er rarely speaks so harshly to Guoguo and has never really treated her like a servant. Today, she is truly exasperated.
Guoguo knelt on the ground: "Miss, it wasn't Guoguo's idea. The family has already made arrangements, and it's indeed time for you to go home. I've already packed everything in advance, just waiting for you to leave. Moreover, the eldest young master has come to pick you up personally, and he's already waiting outside Chenyang Palace."
An Yuan'er clenched her small hands tightly and said unwillingly, "What are you doing? Are you forcing me to go back? How can you force me like this? Guoguo, you know that I hate it when people force me."
An Yuan'er turned her back: "Go and put the things back. Then tell your brother that he made a wasted trip."
Guoguo remained kneeling on the ground, saying, "Miss, you can't do this. The young master said that Guoguo must persuade you no matter what."
There was an invisible pressure that made An Yuan'er feel uncomfortable and suffocated.
She can't leave. After she leaves, Yi Chenli will be all alone. There will be no one to play chess and eat with, no one to talk to and relieve his boredom. An Yuan'er can imagine that after she leaves, Yi Chenli can practice martial arts in the forest all day, read books in the study all day, and keep quiet without talking to anyone.
He'll revert to his old self, even though she worked so hard to make him better every day.
Now he can laugh, express his emotions, and create surprises for her. He is no longer a dull block of wood; he has begun to act like a person with emotions.
What does all her hard work over the years mean now that she's gone?
In fact, it wasn't just him who needed her; she couldn't live without him either.
Two people in love, even when in the same space and doing their own things, can find endless motivation just by glancing up occasionally and seeing each other's focused expressions and smiles.
An Yuan'er liked to rest her chin on her hand and look at him when she was lost in thought; she never got tired of looking at him.
An Yuan'er was certain of her own thoughts; she couldn't leave. Absolutely not!
She rubbed her head and said uncomfortably, "Guoguo, I caught a cold last night and I feel really awful. I'm sick, you can't possibly drag me home, can you?"
When force failed, An Yuan'er changed her strategy, opting for a retreat as a means of advancement.
Her family told Guoguo to pressure her, but she had a way to deal with it.
However, this trick, which usually works best, failed today.
Guoguo stepped forward and touched An Yuan'er's forehead, then compared it to her own: "Miss, you're trying to fool Guoguo, but Guoguo won't fall for it."
"Moreover, the master said in advance that even if Miss is sick, she should be taken back home. The family will hire the best doctor, no worse than the one in Chenyang Palace."
Guoguo wouldn't budge no matter what, and An Yuan'er got annoyed by the pressure. She sat down on the stool and slammed her hand on the table: "You guys are urging me like this, making me feel like I've been kicked out by the Master of Chenyang Palace. We flew kites together yesterday and had a really fun time."
Guoguo's eyes showed a hint of reluctance. After hesitating for a moment, she said with difficulty, "Miss... asking you to go back is not just the family's wish. The Sixth Prince... has also agreed."
An Yuan'er couldn't believe her ears and exclaimed excitedly, "You're lying! It can't be!"
