Her expression, posture, gaze, and even the laziness seeping from every strand of her hair, showed no sign of excitement.

Shen Mo, accustomed to her indirect way of speaking, reached out to touch her hair and gave a faint smile.

Bai Youwei leaned on the sofa, half-closing her eyes, and said softly, “Originally…you promised my mother to take me to Yangzhou. Although it didn’t work out, if you could bring me to my mother, then it would be considered mission accomplished. After that…is there any need for us to see each other?”

Shen Mo’s movements paused slightly, then slowly withdrew his hand.

“Is Brother Mo leaving?”

A feeble voice sounded.

The two turned their heads and saw Pan Xiaoxin, who had been packing up her stuff, standing at the door, looking at them in astonishment.

“…Xiaoxin, who did you say is leaving?” Teacher Chang also came out of the room.

Shen Mo explained, “I’m going to meet my family soon. Before settling down, I won’t leave everyone behind.”

Chang Weicai suddenly realized, Shen Mo’s family was in Shanghai.

Just like Su Man and Li Li, although they were in the same team as Yan Qingwen, now that they’ve found their families, they naturally want to return to them.

After thinking about it, Teacher Chang hesitated before saying, “Xiaoshen, you’ve saved us many times along the way. Now that you can finally reunite with your family, you should cherish it more. We’ll be okay, we can take care of ourselves. You don’t need to feel guilty. There’s no such thing as a banquet that doesn’t end…”

As he spoke, he paused for two seconds and asked in confusion, “Aren’t you and Weiwei siblings? Don’t you plan to take her with you?”

Shen Mo lowered his eyes and glanced at Bai Youwei. “I’ll take her to her mother.”

A sarcastic smile appeared at the corner of Bai Youwei’s lips.

“If she doesn’t want to go, I’ll take care of her,” he added.

Bai Youwei froze, looking up at Shen Mo.

He continued to gaze at Teacher Chang, his stern profile was calm and composed. in a steady tone he said, “Everyone needs to settle down first, rest well. The situation here is unclear, we don’t know anything yet, it’s too early to talk about parting ways. Though we had different motivations when we first gathered, don’t forget, what our current goal is.”

“We need to complete the puzzle!…” Tan Xiao’s voice, hoarse and ragged, echoed in the room.

Bai Youwei burst out laughing!

Once she laughed, everyone else also started to smile, lightening the heaviness of their imminent departure.

Pan Xiaoxin hurried back to the room, “Brother Xiao, you have to rest, stop speaking…”

Chang Weicai shook his head, sighed, “Miracles emerge with every rising sun, may its sublime radiance enlighten all beneath. Outraged by the sight of injustice, a thousand-year-old sword grinds within my chest! —— I might be old, but I am still healthy and willing to do something, that’s much better than living out my twilight years in mediocrity.”

Bai Youwei held back a laugh, “You’re full of vigor in your old age, to live out your twilight years is too early for you.”

Shen Mo said, “I’ll leave soon, it may take half a day. Please take care of the house.”

“Just go, leave the house to me.” Teacher Chang rolled up his sleeves and mumbled as he walked into the kitchen, “I’ll start preparing dinner…”

Only Shen Mo and Bai Youwei were left in the living room.

Shen Mo looked at her, “If you really don’t want to see her, I can let them know over there, but I can’t assure you that Aunt Wang won’t come looking.”

After all, they are mother and daughter, if they really want to find each other, emotionally and rationally, Shen Mo can’t stop them.

Bai Youwei looked out the window and said lightly, “See her?…Of course, I will, but one meeting would be enough.”
