Opp stayed in the Bai family for two years.
Two years is neither long nor short. It is enough time for him to learn many things he has never been exposed to before, and it is also enough time for him to become thoroughly familiar with the life in the Bai family.
In two years, he has indeed grown a lot.
But it was also during these two years that he realized more and more clearly that he could no longer stay in the Bai family.
Cole's urging never stopped.
From the first day he came to the Bai family, his father Cole had been trying every possible way to get him to marry Bai Lishu as soon as possible. In the past two years, Cole had even gone even further and even started to use various means to put pressure on the Bai family.
The Bai family is not afraid of Cole, but Opp does not want to become a burden to the Bai family.
He knew too well what kind of man his father was.
Cole is a man who will not do anything without a profit. Once he marries Bai Lishu, the Bai family will not be able to get rid of Cole easily.
Cole is like a leech; once he latches on, he won't let go easily.
Opp didn't want Bai Lishu to fall into such a situation.
So, after thinking for a long time, he went to find Bai Yan.
After listening to his request, Bai Yan just looked at him quietly with a calm gaze.
After a long while, Bai Yan said calmly, "Are you sure?"
Opp nodded, his tone firm: "I can't let the Bai family let my father suck their blood because of me."
Bai Yan did not respond immediately, seeming to be thinking.
After a long while, he slowly spoke: "Does Bai Lishu know?"
Opp paused for a moment and whispered, "I don't know yet."
"Then go talk to her." Bai Yan said, "If she agrees, I won't stop you."
When Opp heard this, his heart trembled slightly.
He took a deep breath and went to find Bai Lishu.
After listening to his thoughts, Bai Lishu was silent for a moment and did not express his opinion immediately.
"Okay." Bai Lishu suddenly said with a smile, his tone light, as if he was talking about a trivial matter, "If you want to leave, I will definitely not stop you."
Opp was slightly stunned.
I don’t know whether to feel surprised or disappointed.
Op's heart suddenly felt empty.
This left him a little overwhelmed.
"Since you have made up your mind, just do it as you wish." Bai Lishu smiled at him with a cheerful tone.
She said it lightly, but Op's heart felt heavy for some reason.
It's not that he hadn't thought about what it would feel like to leave the Bai family, but when the moment came, he realized that it was even harder to let go than he had imagined.
The Bai family treated him well. Although Bai Yan was indifferent, he always gave him the respect and protection he deserved. And Bai Lishu... Not to mention Bai Lishu.
She was like an omnipotent guide, spreading sunshine all over his world.
"Grandpa said if you agree, he won't stop me." Opp whispered.
Bai Lishu sneered upon hearing this. "Of course. My brother has always been a very rational person. He wouldn't try to stop someone who has made up their mind." She paused and looked at Opp calmly. "So you've really decided? You want to leave?"
Op's throat tightened slightly, and after a while, he nodded deeply.
Bai Lishu looked at him with a complicated expression, as if he wanted to say something, but in the end he smiled and patted his shoulder: "Okay, then go."
Op lowered his head and said nothing.
Bai Lishu turned around, his back facing him, and the smile on his lips gradually faded.
Her grip tightened slightly, and she felt inexplicably irritated.
She should have known long ago that Op was the kind of person who would make such a decision. He was too rational and clear-headed to be bound by emotions, nor would he willingly become a burden to someone just because he depended on them.
But she didn't expect that this day would come so soon.
She raised her head, took a deep breath, and tried to keep herself calm.
Watched him leave.
Well, she couldn't be calm at all.
"Are you willing to give it up?" Lu Yuqing appeared out of nowhere.
Bai Lishu leaned against the wall and said, "I'm not willing to give it away! I've been protecting this flower since I was little, do you think I can give it to someone else?"
Lu Yuqing raised an eyebrow, looking at Bai Lishu who said "I'm not willing to give up a shit" but still looked nonchalant, and couldn't help but laugh: "So how do you plan to help him?"
Bai Lishu glanced at him and did not give a direct answer. Instead, he looked thoughtfully at the lights in the distance that were gradually dimming.
"Since he wants to leave, he has to leave completely." She narrowed her eyes slightly, a hint of coldness appearing in her eyes, "Otherwise, Cole, that leech, will catch up with us sooner or later."
"Tsk, you're being really harsh in your evaluation of your future 'father-in-law'." Lu Yuqing crossed his arms, his tone teasing.
Bai Lishu sneered, not hiding her disgust at all: "Father-in-law? Haha, if it weren't for my wife, I would never want to have anything to do with him in my life." She lowered her head to glance at the dimmed light brain, and the corners of her mouth curled up slightly.
She has her own way.

It was dark at night and Opp was packing his luggage.
He didn't have much stuff. In the past two years, he had left few personal belongings in the Bai family. The only thing that made him hesitate was the gun that Bai Lishu had specially made for him.
He reached out and grasped the gun handle, his fingertips gently stroking the ruby inlaid on the gun handle.
This gun... do you want to take it away?
I don’t know whether it is legal or not, but Chenmeng Star has a regulation prohibiting ordinary residents from carrying guns privately.
He pondered for a moment and finally put the gun into his luggage.
Just then, there was a knock on the door.
"Come in." Op said.
The door was pushed open and Bai Lishu appeared at the door.
She leaned lazily against the door frame, a faint smile on her lips: "What? Have you packed your luggage?"
Op nodded: "Yeah."
Bai Lishu noticed the gun that Opp had put into the bag.
Look, he is so good, how can you bear to let him go.
The Bai family was still silent at night, with only the occasional sound of wind blowing by, bringing with it faint noises.
Bai Lishu helped him arrange a spaceship without asking him where he was going, nor did he say anything to try to keep him.
Just watched Op leave.
On the spaceship, through the small window, Op looked at Bai Lishu who was waving at him and sighed.
The spaceship slowly took off, getting farther and farther away from the ground, farther and farther away from Bai Lishu, and my heart became emptier and emptier.
