Gu Lanshan's lips quivered, and in the end, she merely nodded slightly and said, "Goodbye."
Mr. Sheng, upon hearing these words, appeared slightly dazed. His gaze was fixed on Gu Lanshan, yet his eyes lacked any focus, leaving one to wonder what he was truly seeing. After a long while, he finally uttered a "Mhm."
Gu Lanshan leaned on the car door, stood for a while, and then slowly stepped out of the car, descending onto the street.
Mr. Sheng felt as though his heart was suddenly hollowed out. He abruptly called out to her, "Chu Chu."
Gu Lanshan looked up, Mr. Sheng gently tugged at the corners of his mouth and said, "Take good care of yourself."
Gu Lanshan nodded. Mr. Sheng then asked, "When are you leaving?"
Gu Lanshan pursed her lips and before she could answer, Mr. Sheng smiled and said, "Never mind. It's fine whenever you leave; no need to rush finding a place. You can stay here for now, but I won't see you off on the day you leave."
