She personally delivered Jing Li to Shen Liangyan’s bed.
Xu Yu could not go back on her word.
She compressed four days of work into three, freeing up Saturday.
She told no one she was going, and dressed with special care.

Kangkang let out a happy cry, nestled in his arms, hugged him tightly, and buried her pretty face in his shoulder and neck.
Long and Wan hurried along their journey, pausing only two days in Shigu Town, where they told Cheng Zhan the current situation in Nanzhao. He then arranged for them to take a boat downstream to Chengdu.
If he had known he would come to this world, he would have needed far more than just “a little equipment.”
Revolution swept the south. Hu Jingyi was heartbroken at the loss of such a bright future. He could not stay in Shanghai, was unwelcome by Sun, and even his close friend Xiong Kewu distanced himself. With nowhere else to go, he slunk back to Sichuan. At this crucial moment, someone came to his aid like a timely gift of coal in the snow.
“Your Majesty, the situation is not good. This old servant cannot diagnose the lady’s illness. Her pulse grows weaker, her hands grow cold. It seems she is gravely hurt.” The old physician withdrew his hand and rose to report to the man in yellow.
Thus, that afternoon, a thunderous roar of rage belonging to a certain man echoed through the grand Chu family mansion.
Still, I must thank the Vermilion Bird Saint for agreeing, thank her for giving me this opportunity. Who would have thought that the green leaves that set off the red flower would come with such advantages. “Thank you, Your Excellency.

When something has been by your side for a long time, you never really get used to its absence, no matter how long it’s gone. She knew she could never have Qiuqiu back; Qiuqiu was irreplaceable.
