Wuxin soon brought Gu Qingmei to the living room.
"Sit down," Gu Qingli said.
Gu Qingmei nodded and sat down. "Xiaoli, is there something you need me to do?"
"No, I just wanted to let you know that we're going to the Capital City. If you need any help in the future, you can ask my mother, and she'll pass the message to me."
"You're going to the Capital City?" Gu Qingmei was surprised, a flicker of disappointment crossing her face. The distance between her and Gu Qingli was growing ever wider.
Gu Qingli nodded. "In a few days. We're packing up right now. Once we're ready, we'll leave."
"Alright, just let me know when you're leaving so I can see you off."
Gu Qingli shook her head. "No need. We might leave very early."
"Alright, well, let me know if it's convenient."
"Okay."
The two chatted idly for a while before Gu Qingmei bid farewell and left.
「In the afternoon」
