As Shen Qingzhu walked, he spoke to Bai Qingyan about future plans: "When the Eldest Young Lady returns to Dadu City, Qingzhu will not accompany the Eldest Young Lady back. Qingzhu will stay here to protect the several young masters and mistresses for the Eldest Young Lady. Rest assured... Qingzhu will protect the young masters and mistresses with his own life. The Eldest Young Lady should focus on recuperating after returning, and should not worry excessively about the Xiliang battlefield."
Shen Qingzhu knew Bai Qingyan too well; even if she returned to Dadu City now, she would surely still worry about her brothers and sisters fighting on the battlefield. Thus, she was willing to stay, granting Bai Qingyan peace of mind.
