“But they seem to be discussing the thousand silver coins?” Serena tried to find a loophole in the story.
“There must always be some kind of bond between a man and a woman, and those thousand silver coins were one such bond. Miss, think about it, if that gentleman didn’t care about Miss Ellie, why would he have left a thousand silver coins in the carriage? Miss Ellie squandered those silver coins in that way, which gave that gentleman a perfect reason to continue harassing her. Whether he compensates her or not is just a pretext for harassment.”
Serena nodded her little head. This reasoning made perfect sense. A thousand silver coins was no small sum; anyone would go crazy and chase after someone who had lost a thousand silver coins, right? But if they came back and then said they wouldn't compensate, then clearly the person was more important than the silver coins.
Serena suddenly realized, "No wonder that gentleman was so rude to me, so that's why."
Lorraine looked at Serena with an expression that suggested she was a promising student.
“Miss, I’m sure that gentleman won’t let Ms. Ellie pay the thousand silver coins, but Ms. Ellie will definitely not be happy to hear that and will insist on paying.” Lorraine said confidently.
Serena was about to ask what was going on when she heard Ellie and the man walk out of the woods, whispering to each other as they went.
"I told you, I don't care, you don't need to pay for it, so please stop crying like this..."
"No, I don't believe you wouldn't care. Don't worry, you'll get a thousand, not one less!"
Serena looked at Lorraine with admiration. It wasn't exactly the same, but rather word for word.
Seeing Serena's look, Lorraine felt secretly pleased and said, "The man will definitely demand that the woman pay for it, but she will be angry and refuse to pay."
Huh? Serena was filled with doubt and couldn't figure out the key to it at all.
Yun Zhe scratched his head, genuinely exasperated by this woman. "Fine, I'll pay. A thousand silver coins, you said it! When are you going to pay?!"
Ellie suddenly stopped, turned around and looked at Yun Zhe, trembling with anger. "As expected, as expected, all you care about is money, all you value are those silver coins, humph!" After saying that, she ran towards the carriage without looking back.
Yun Zhe was stunned. What was this woman trying to do?
Serena was completely captivated by Lorraine. She whispered to him, "Lorraine, I believe you, but is this what you all call love?"
Lorraine nodded, looking at the man and woman under the moon, his heart churning, countless memories flooding his mind.
