Chapter 189 Leaving the North
Chapter 189 Leaving the North
After staying in the North Country for a few days, Xiao Chuhan took Lan Xi on a tour of the North Country. It was time to leave the North Country. Although she didn't stay in the North Country for a long time, Lan Xi still liked the North Country very much. However, no matter how beautiful a place is, you still have to say goodbye in the end.
Lan Xi watched herself gradually moving away from the North Country, and prayed silently in her heart: I hope I will have the chance to come to the North Country again in the future.
Just before leaving the North Country, when their carriage arrived at the city gate, a woman stopped their carriage.
Xingye came to the carriage and reported, "Master, it's Miss Ruyan from Zuixianlou."
Xiao Chu looked at Lan Xi coldly and said, "Your Miss Ruyan is here, what are you going to do? If you don't want to get off the car, I'll let Xingye send her away."
After thinking for a while, Lan Xi decided to go see Miss Ruyan. Lan Xi got off the carriage and walked to Ruyan's side.
When Miss Ruyan saw Lan Xi, she immediately came forward and said softly, "My benefactor, I heard that you were leaving the Northern Kingdom today, so I came here specially to see you off."
Lan Xi asked with concern: "Miss Ruyan, did Master Li come to provoke you again?"
Miss Ruyan shook her head at Lanxi and replied, "Young Master Li has never been to Zuixianlou since that day."
"But given his personality, he will definitely come to Zuixianlou to cause trouble in the future. Miss Ruyan, why don't you leave Zuixianlou?"
Ruyan's eyes gradually became lonely, as if she had lost the brilliance of her life. Ruyan murmured to herself: "If I leave Zuixianlou, where can I go? The mothers of Zuixianlou have always been very kind to me, but it's a pity that Master Li is powerful and they dare not provoke him easily."
"Are you unable to leave because you lack money? If so, I can help you think of a solution." A strong feeling of sympathy and pity welled up in Lan Xi's heart. She really couldn't bear to see a talented woman like Ruyan trapped in a place of fireworks like Zuixianlou.
Ruyan looked at Lanxi gratefully, tears welling up in her eyes. Ruyan shook her head and said, "Thank you for your concern, but this may be my fate. At least if I stay in Zuixianlou, I can still get some protection. If I really leave here, I really can't imagine what my fate will be..."
Lan Xi couldn't help but fall into deep thought. Ruyan's words made sense. In this world where the strong prey on the weak, if she didn't have a strong backer to protect her, even if Ruyan left Zuixianlou, she would probably have nowhere to go. And that Li Yi would only bully Ruyan more unscrupulously.
Ruyan seemed to see what Lanxi was thinking. She smiled and comforted him, "Don't worry, benefactor. I will take good care of myself."
As she spoke, Ruyan took out an exquisite purse from her pocket and handed it to Lanxi carefully, her eyes full of sincerity and gratitude. "I embroidered this purse myself and gave it to my benefactor. I hope you will think of me every time you see it."
Lan Xi took the purse from Ruyan with some embarrassment. She felt the delicate touch and the faint fragrance, and her heart softened. She knew that this purse represented Ruyan's heart, and she couldn't let her down. So, Lan Xi smiled and nodded, saying that she would cherish this gift and wish Ruyan peace and happiness.
