Chunhua felt mixed emotions. As she struggled, she spoke with a tone of blame and confusion: "Brother Guangfeng, what's wrong with you? How can you be so impulsive!"

There was a strange light flashing in Hu Guangfeng's eyes, an almost crazy obsession. His words were like hot tongues of fire, trying to lick and melt the defenses in Chunhua's heart: "Chunhua, you are free, no one can stop us anymore!"

However, Chunhua's response was full of sadness and helplessness: "Brother Guangfeng, this is not possible, it really is not possible..."

Seeing the smile on Hu Guangfeng's face freeze, Chunhua felt a pang of pain in her heart. She knew that this relationship could no longer be saved.

She tried hard to hold back the tears in her eyes, her voice trembling, "Brother Guangfeng, I have never lied to you, nor have I changed my mind. But as my father's daughter, even if he has made mistakes, I must follow the etiquette and mourn for him for three years. This is my responsibility and my promise to myself."

At this moment, there was an unspeakable heaviness in the air. Chunhua's words were like a sharp blade, cutting through the thin layer of fantasy between the two and exposing the cruelty of reality.

And beneath this heaviness lies the silent struggle against fate, as well as the desire and fear for the unknown future.

"If I leave now, my father in heaven will definitely not forgive me."

Fang Chunhua's voice was low and firm, with a barely perceptible tremor, as if the morality and responsibility deep in her heart were pulling at each other.

"Besides, his murderer has not been caught yet. I also hope that this case can have a result as soon as possible so that my father can rest in peace."

There was a deep sorrow in her eyes, as if she was recalling her father's voice, appearance and smile, making everyone present feel the unforgettable pain in her heart.

Hu Guangfeng stared at her, his eyes as deep as a pool of water, but he could not tell how much truth there was in her words.

There was no expression on his face, but the hint of coldness in his eyes was like a cold wind blowing on your face, making people's hearts tremble.

Fang Chunhua felt the coldness and her body stiffened involuntarily, and she began to feel uneasy.

She tried to hide her panic, but found it was all in vain.

Just when the atmosphere was tense to the extreme, a familiar voice blew away the stagnant air like a spring breeze, "Chunhua? Chunhua?"

It was her husband who had returned.

Fang Chunhua seemed to have found a savior, and quickly took the opportunity to push Hu Guangfeng, with a tone of relief that was almost pleading.

"Brother Guangfeng, you go first. I'll leave with you after I've arranged things at home tonight. How about that?"

There was a glimmer of cunning and determination in her eyes.

"Really?"

Hu Guangfeng's expression instantly changed from gloomy to joyful. The emotions that had been suppressed for so long were finally released. The joy in his heart surged like a tide, sweeping away the previous haze.

Fang Chunhua barely suppressed the discomfort in her heart and held his hands tightly. His hands were warm and powerful, as if giving her an inexplicable courage. "Brother Guangfeng, we grew up together. Don't you still believe me? Tonight, I will definitely go with you!"

Although her voice was weak, it was extremely firm.

"After all, we have to leave the capital to find another way to make a living, so we have to bring some money. I have to go home to get the money."

Her words were full of expectations for the future and helplessness towards reality.

"Okay, I'll wait for you."

Hu Guangfeng's eyes were like torches, staring at her intently, and every word seemed to come from the bottom of his heart, "Chunhua, please don't let me down."

"Will not."

Fang Chunhua's answer was brief and powerful, and the promise contained in it was more real than any fancy words.

Night falls quietly, and the dark sky is dotted with sporadic points of light.

When the first ray of dawn appeared on the horizon, Fang Chunhua carefully pushed her sleeping husband beside her. After confirming that he was in a deep sleep, a trace of determination flashed in her eyes, a determination to do everything for freedom and hope.

She stood up quickly, moving swiftly and carefully, for fear of disturbing the sleeping world.

Get dressed, tidy up, and then take out an already packed package from the depths of your closet.

The surface of the package looked a little old due to being rubbed many times. Obviously, she had already prepared for it and there was no need to check it again.

The world outside was still pitch black. Fang Chunhua seemed to have merged into the night. She pushed open the door silently and stepped into the endless dark night.

Soon, she found Hu Guangfeng's figure in a dim corner.

Hu Guangfeng was also carrying a package, but the shape of the package was quite strange. It did not look like ordinary luggage, but rather like it contained some unknown secret.

The outline of the contents of the package is clear, as if there is a long object hidden inside, which makes people imagine a lot.

Fang Chunhua did not ask any further questions. She just smiled and took Hu Guangfeng's hand. There was both expectation and determination in that smile. "Brother Guangfeng, let's go."

While waiting for Fang Chunhua to arrive, Hu Guangfeng's face was always covered with an indelible gloom and cruelty.

But her appearance was like a beam of warm sunshine, dispelling all his darkness. The corners of his mouth slightly raised, a long-lost smile, "Chunhua, I knew you wouldn't lie to me."

Fang Chunhua smiled shyly, with a sweet reproach in her words, "Silly boy, how could I possibly lie to you?"

The two people's hearts seemed to be closer at this moment.

However, escaping from the capital was not easy.

The first thing they had to face was the strict curfew in the capital.

At night, patrols by the Imperial Guards made the city as tight as an iron barrel, and anyone who went out during curfew would face severe punishment.

In order to avoid tragedy, they planned to find a hidden place to hide first and wait until dawn to leave the city.

Hu Guangfeng had no objection to this, and the two of them walked even closer, as if they had found the strength to rely on each other in the darkness.

Soon, they took temporary shelter in an abandoned house.

Fang Chunhua sat on the ground and carefully took out two handmade snacks from the package and gave one to Hu Guangfeng. "Brother Guangfeng, you have been waiting for me for so long, you must be starving, right? Eat something to fill your stomach."

As she spoke, she took a bite of the dessert in her hand. The sweet taste blossomed on the tip of her tongue, adding a touch of warmth to this cold night.

However, just as Hu Guangfeng was about to enjoy this rare warmth, a sudden warning interrupted everything.

"You'd better not touch this thing."

A woman's voice suddenly rang out, breaking the silence of the night sky and startling the two people who were immersed in a moment of peace.

"You vicious woman! It is clearly what you said. Your husband treats you cruelly, your child is ignorant of the world, and your mother-in-law is mean and mean. You feel uneasy every day in Zhang's house. If you were not in such a desperate situation, how could I..."
