Gazing out at the blue sky through the window, Shen Ruo told herself to endure just a bit longer, just a bit more, and she would be free...
That day, Gu Kai was much gentler than usual, and his demands were also much greater...
For several consecutive days, Shen Ruo was very quiet and obedient, and Gu Kai's demands on her were daily, but his control over her gradually loosened.
While at work, Shen Ruo looked up routes, plane tickets, and other matters, just waiting for an opportunity to leave this place.
Her plan was somewhat naive; she figured that as long as she left, after a couple of years, Gu Kai would forget about her. By that time, she could return.
Even if Gu Kai didn't forget her, by then, everything would have changed, and what could he do to her?
Moreover, this was a society governed by law and civility, and she simply didn't believe that if she confronted him and burned bridges, he still could do anything to her.
