After it had taken forever to finish eating, like a bird in the cage, Xiulan was released to soar high above freely. She fled away from the Tang family's mansion as quickly as she could.
On her way home, the thought of Jianyu saddened her unconditionally. He was not a free man and had a cute and clever daughter too. The deceased woman whom he loved might be the birth mother of Yaoyao.
Xiulan empathized with how hard the time the father and daughter went through when they encountered the death of the most important person in their life who was the wife and at the same time the mother.
Judging by the words Jianyu mentioned at the river bank, one could clearly witness how precious their existence was in his life.
Xiulan felt lost. When she was young and immature, she thought she could go after whoever she loved in any situation. But now, her encouragement was gone before she had properly pursued him.
