"Do you really have to go back, even ignoring Uncle's words?"
Wu Ming stared intensely into Baili Xia's eyes, his voice turning cold.
Baili Xia knew Wu Ming was angry.
But after all, he wasn't Uncle. No, even if Uncle were here, she couldn't back down.
She nodded firmly and said, "I have to go back. I'll explain to Uncle once I'm there."
"In that case, take care on the road. I'll inform Uncle and have him arrange for someone to meet you."
After saying this, Wu Ming turned and walked towards the courtyard gate.
His steps no longer carried the ease they once did, now burdened with a sense of helplessness.
He tried everything to stay here with her, to protect her, but in the end, she insists on returning to that place.
Could it be that everything is already predestined, and there's no escaping it?
If there's no way to escape, then the only choice is to face it head-on...
Wu Ming left, and watching his departing figure, Baili Xia felt a slight pang of guilt.
