Yun Lintian halted in his tracks. Guilt flickered in Nantian Yu's eyes. Even with his reassurance, her determination to leave remained unwavering.
With a slight nod, he conceded, "Understood. If possible, you should leave immediately."
The thought of her supposed demise gnawed at Yun Lintian. He suspected a significant event unfolding either tonight or tomorrow. To change Nantian Yu's fate, he demanded her immediate departure.
A pang of disappointment stabbed at Nantian Yu's heart. Though she understood Yun Lintian's intentions, sadness welled within her. The past two days were the happiest since her mother's passing. If possible, she yearned to stay longer… Unfortunately, the thought of endangering him fueled her resolve to leave.
"Alright," Nantian Yu responded softly, "farewell, then."
