Qiao Wanwan was slightly taken aback, as if she had misheard something.

Doesn't Xie Ze like her a lot?

Why have you suddenly given up on her?

Somewhat incredulously, she asked again:

"What did you just say?"

The man pursed his thin lips and tightened his embrace around the woman's waist, savoring the last of his breath as he savored the unique and pleasant scent emanating from her body.

He couldn't bear it; he really couldn't bear to see Qiao Wanwan leave his side.

However, he didn't want Qiao Wanwan to get hurt. So he had to harden his heart and make her leave the Xie residence.

The man felt a mix of emotions he couldn't quite describe. He held the woman tightly, suppressing the turmoil in his heart. His throat tightened, but he still forced out his words against his will.

"Wanwan, let's separate. I'll send someone to take you back to the Alliance Leader's Mansion tomorrow."

"... "

The woman did not move or respond.

Xie Ze was filled with bitterness and wanted to tell the woman in front of him everything.

But he didn't want the woman to get involved in this conflict.

He slowly released the woman. He then saw that the woman's eyes, which were staring at him, were beginning to redden slightly.

"Wanwan, we can still be friends, right?"

"... "

When Qiao Wanwan heard his words, it felt like shards of broken glass had pierced her chest, and every breath she took was painful.

Her nose stung and turned red, and tears suddenly welled up in her eyes, blurring her vision.

But the woman didn't want the other person to see her emotional state, so she tilted her head back slightly and forced back the tears that were about to fall.

He asked him softly:

You mean you want me to leave?

"Correct."

"good very good."

"!"

Qiao Wanwan didn't argue any further; she simply pushed the man who was in her way away.

Once inside the room, I started taking things out of the closet and packing my luggage.

As Qiao Wanwan tidied up, she wiped away her tears, inwardly cursing herself.

What's there to cry about? You never intended to marry into the Xie family in the first place.

Isn't this just right?

You can also sever ties with the characters in the show, so you won't be killed by the villains anymore. Haha.

"..."

But... I didn't realize that being rejected was so painful.

Qiao Wanwan originally thought that she could take the poor Xie Ze away from the Xie family mansion, so that he could fall in love and get married like a normal couple and be with her forever.

However, Xie Ze had no intention of leaving with her.

Qiao Wanwan was also unsure whether he needed to rely on the antidote developed by Xie Zhentian because of toxins in his body.

If this is the reason he doesn't intend to leave with me, it means he's timid and afraid of trouble.

Since that's the case, there's no need for her to sacrifice herself to save him.

After all, her blood is only for those who deserve it.

Qiao Wanwan quickly packed her bags, sniffed, wiped away the tears from her eyes, and acted as if she didn't care at all.

He walked out of the room carrying a large bundle.

The people in the courtyard left, and he watched as Qiao Wanwan came out with a package.

He went up and grabbed her.

"Wanwan, what are you doing?"

"Let go! What I do is none of your business. You want me to leave? I'll leave now. Don't bother me."

“Wanwan, I know you’re angry right now, but it’s getting late, and it would be dangerous for you to go out. I’m worried about you. Why don’t you stay here tonight, and I’ll have someone take you home tomorrow?”

I'll take her back tomorrow!

Doesn't that make her even angrier?

Whether she leaves early or late, she'll be forced to leave anyway.

So what's the problem if she leaves now?

Qiao Wanwan puffed out her cheeks in anger, raised one foot in a huff, and stomped hard on the man's boot.

"hiss!"

The man winced slightly, but did not let go of Qiao Wanwan's hand.

"Get out of my way, I don't need your people to see me off. I'll leave myself right now."

She slung the bundle over her shoulder and ruthlessly shook off the man's hand.

"Humph!"

"Wanwan!"

"I don't need your charlatan Mr. Xie's escort. I'll take my leave now."

"... "

The man's desolate gaze fell upon the woman who left without looking back.

It's so heartless.

His face was deathly pale, and his white robe accentuated his tall figure; he was even swaying slightly as he stood.

His heart ached terribly, and he forced himself to hold on, clenching his fist so tightly that he felt no pain even as his nails dug into his flesh.

Isn't what he's doing a form of punishment for himself?

What he fears most is that the people around him will betray him and leave him.

If Qiao Wanwan leaves him, based on past experience, he will definitely threaten suicide to beg her not to leave him.

But now...

The man parted his thin lips slightly and uttered a soft sentence to the woman's disappearing figure.

"Wanwan, I'll come back to you after I've sorted things out."

...

Chunxia and Xie Yi were still chatting outside the courtyard gate.

Turning around, I saw my young mistress angrily walking out with her bag on her back.

"!!"

Chunxia was startled and asked in confusion:

"Miss, why did you bring your bundle with you?"

"... "

Qiao Wanwan was sulking, and even seeing Xie Yi standing to the side made her feel very uncomfortable.

He glared at him angrily and instructed Chunxia:

"Chunxia, ​​hurry back and pack your things. I'll be waiting for you at the Xie residence gate."

"Okay, miss, wait for me."

After Chunxia left, Qiao Wanwan carried the package and walked towards the entrance of the Xie residence.

Xie Yi, standing behind them, chimed in with a comment.

"Was she abandoned by my young master?"

"Watch your mouth and don't meddle."

Xie Yi wasn't angry when she heard Qiao Wanwan's words; instead, she teased her.

"Hmph, Miss Qiao, do you feel wronged? But my young master's personality is just so changeable. I hope that after you leave, Miss Qiao, you won't bother my young master anymore."

"How ridiculous, we don't even know who's clinging to whom. Don't worry, I won't cling to your young master, and I hope you can keep an eye on him."

"... "

After finishing her sentence, Qiao Wanwan left the Xie residence without stopping.

Xie Ze stood in the courtyard and saw the wooden goose carving that had fallen to the ground.

He bent down and picked it up gently.

They took out the wooden carvings from their own bodies and put them together to form a pair.

So, Wanwan was waiting for him the whole time, right?

Unfortunately, bad news followed.

He gripped the two wooden carvings tightly in his hands, his heart bleeding.

He knew he had wronged her terribly. Unfortunately, this was all he could do.

Xie Yi walked in from outside and saw his young master sitting on a stone bench, covering his head and looking sad.

He then offered a reminder:

"Young Master, Miss Qiao has already left the Xie residence."

"Okay, Xie Yi, I have a task for you."

"Please speak, young master."

"Protect Qiao Wanwan for me until she returns to the Qiao residence."

Xie Yi was slightly taken aback. So the young master still cared about Miss Qiao. Then why did he send her away?

He just couldn't understand it.

"Yes."

...

"Master, Miss Qiao has been kicked out of the Xie residence by the young master."

"what?"

Xie Zhentian, who was fiddling with medicines in the pharmacy, was also slightly surprised when he heard the news from Zhong Shi.

Didn't his son like that Miss Qiao? Why did he suddenly kick her out?

What happened to them?

"From what I've heard, they apparently had some kind of argument. In a fit of anger, Miss Qiao packed her things and left the Xie residence, and the young master didn't try to stop her..."

"Ah, what a pity. I thought that Alliance Leader Qiao's daughter could become my daughter-in-law. It seems that Ze'er still doesn't know how to please a girl."

...

The two servants, master and servant, left the Xie residence and wandered aimlessly through the streets.

Seeing that her mistress's anger had subsided considerably, Chunxia asked softly:

"Miss, where are we going now?"

"Let's return to the Alliance Leader's Mansion by the same route we took."

"Should we go find Young Master Gu?"

"Why would we need to find him? We can walk back ourselves."

"Okay, miss."

A familiar male voice suddenly came from behind them.

"Oh? Who is it that remembers me now?"

"... "

Say Cao Cao and Cao Cao will arrive.

Without turning around, the two could guess who the voice belonged to.
