People chatted and laughed as they went back. Some people who had old grudges against each other also smiled and made peace with each other. They had been through this disaster together. That insignificant grudge was nothing.
After the commoners dispersed, the imperial guards also greeted Liu Sanniang and returned to the palace.
Chu Yan squeezed Liu Sanniang's palm and said, "Let's go home."
Liu Sanniang nodded.
Su Yanyu hugged the jar and wiped his tears. "Shifu, are you alright?"
Looking at so many people biting off Liu Sanniang's flesh, he cried until his eyes were swollen.
Liu Sanniang smiled. "Do I look like I'm not alright?"
Su Yanyu lowered his head. His heart ached.
Chu Yan pulled Liu Sanniang into the room. Chu Yan wanted her to lie down and rest. He said in a low voice, "I'm sorry, I couldn't interfere."
