Fang Xiyue merely acted simple, but she wasn't foolish. She grasped the meaning behind Shu Yu's words and understood that such an opportunity was indeed rare. If she let it slip by, she might regret it for a lifetime.
She took a deep breath and nodded emphatically, "I understand."
Shu Yu then said no more, and the two of them hurried to catch up with Ma Lu and the rest of the group, following them into the deep mountains.
When they returned from hunting that afternoon, and after Xiyue had spoken to her parents in this way, she sought Shu Yu the next day, her face brimming with joy as she said, "Yu, it's settled. My parents have agreed to let me go into the mountains. I convinced them."
Although the process was arduous, the outcome was as Fang Xiyue had hoped.
Moreover, due to this matter, Father Fang called the two of them to his home and advised them on some things to note.
