Her expression became distant as she remembered the past, Shujun clinging to her side, the frivolously wandering men, sometimes coy, sometimes charming, and she couldn't help but chuckle softly. But suddenly, her pace faltered, and she vigorously shook her head. The pleasant mood of just a moment before had already scattered, and she felt suddenly melancholic.
The world is vast, but where was she to go from here?
Turns out, she was such a pitiful wretch, having left the Liang family with not even a place to settle down.
She pondered again for a while.
