Only after being reborn did I realize that I was the white moonlight of a powerful minister.

Yunzhi closed the door, still furious. She went to the kitchen and fetched a bucket of swill. When she opened the door and saw Zhao Chuan still there, she threatened, "Young Master Zhao, you are also a man of official rank. If you really make our lives impossible, I will fight you to the death and see if you can continue to take the imperial examinations and become an official! I'll leave this bucket of swill behind the door. If you dare to knock again, I will definitely pour it on you!"

"Hey, Miss Yunzhi, don't be so agitated. I really didn't do anything. You..." Before Zhao Chuan could finish speaking, Yunzhi had already closed the door.

Thinking of the smell of the swill bucket, Zhao Chuan shook his head. How could he not know his true feelings?

Yunzhi went back and angrily cursed at her master, "He's like a leech, I can't get rid of him. He's so annoying! He calls himself a scholar, but he's just a lecherous scoundrel!"

Ye Wanning was already packing her belongings. "Just bear with it. We'll move as soon as we're done packing. We won't wait any longer."

"Didn't you say before that you would move out immediately, which made you seem guilty?" Yunzhi said.

"If we feel guilty, we can say it's because of Zhao Chuan's harassment. But after a while, it won't be convincing. We're just unlucky to have run into this kind of thing," Ye Wanning sighed.

It was to be expected, really. The world is vast, but the powerful and wealthy are still the same people who come and go, and they will always encounter some trouble.

She couldn't use her own name or identity, so she was destined to live in hiding.

Take all the valuables with you, and sell the rest of the books to avoid them being too heavy on the road.

As for this house, let's leave it empty for now. After a few years, when things have calmed down, we can sell it.

The whole family was busy, but Ye Chengle was still unaware of the current situation. In the evening, he said he wanted to eat sweet and sour fish and snuggled up to Ye Wanning.

This time, however, Ye Wanning didn't go along with Ye Chengle, and Ye Chengle got a little grumpy. Before going to sleep, he even turned his back to Ye Wanning, which made Ye Wanning laugh.

Two days later, Yunzhi found the people from the escort agency, paid them, and then they prepared to move.

On the day she left, Ye Wanning boarded the carriage early before dawn and set off to wait at the city gate.

As soon as the city gates opened, they immediately left the city.

At this point, she would first go to one place and then prepare to move. Ye Wanning always did this when she moved, so as not to leave any clues for anyone.

Not long after they left the city, for some reason, Zhao Chuan found out and actually rode up to them.

"Madam Ye, wait a minute. Please give me a chance to tell you what's on my mind, okay?" Zhao Chuan almost fell off his horse, his head covered in sweat.

Ye Wanning frowned slightly, but still got off the carriage. "Young Master Zhao, as the saying goes, a gentleman has things he will do and things he will not do. Now that I have made my stance clear, you should back down instead of persisting."

"Why? I want to know why you don't like me?" Zhao Chuan was very stubborn and insisted on this answer.

Ye Wanning took a deep breath, knowing that she wouldn't be able to leave today without being harsh. "Because my late husband is one in a million in my heart, no one can compare to his brilliance and integrity. He was the best man in the world, and I will only belong to him for the rest of my life. You are not even worthy of carrying his shoes, let alone being treated with respect by me. Zhao Chuan, it is important for a person to know their own limitations. Perhaps you are a popular scholar in this small county, but you should know that you are just a frog in a well here, not even worth a hair on my late husband's head."

To make Zhao Chuan give up, Ye Wanning had no choice but to fabricate a story about a deceased husband.

But she didn't know that when she saw Zhao Chuan again in the capital, he would remember her perfectly well and everything she had said that day. When Zhao Chuan questioned her about who her deceased husband was, it was truly an embarrassing situation.

Zhao Chuan was stunned. "Am I really that worthless?"

"Yes, the way you're bothering me is really unsightly," Ye Wanning said, turning around. "Please have some manners. From now on, don't send anyone to follow me anymore."

Zhao Chuan watched Ye Wanning leave. He only found out she was leaving when he sent someone to follow her.

But now, Ye Wanning says he is incompetent, that he is not even one ten-thousandth as good as her deceased husband.

Zhao Chuan seemed to have lost his soul; how could she not like him?

Ye Wanning instructed the escort agency to leave someone behind to keep an eye on Zhao Chuan and prevent him from following them.

She thought this was goodbye forever; no one could have imagined that they would meet again in the capital.

After five days of travel, Ye Wanning arrived at a new town. After settling the money with the escort agency, she immediately took advantage of the daytime to travel to her next destination.

Ye Chengle continued on his journey, and the child kept pestering Yunzhi and Chunxi to take him out for a stroll. Ye Wanning thought that they had already traveled so far, so she told Yunzhi to be careful.

By evening, Yunzhi and Ye Chengle still hadn't returned.
