Chapter 645 - You All are Good, Right? (1/2)
”You're leaving?” Gao Yi placed his hands in his pockets while the light breeze blew the loose strands of hair in front of his forehead to reveal signs of fragility. He was still as thin as ever, and when the wind blew over, it would all enter the empty spaces between his sleeves and pants.
”What should I do if I don't leave?” Chu Lui said lightly. He held his luggage that was not very big; inside it was all his items from here. He had even prepared to bring home that pair of slippers. He had made quite a few memories here which could last for a few years even though the ending was still sarcastic.
”I wish you luck.”
Gao Yi extended his hand in front of Chu Lui's.
Chu Lui raised his hand, too, and shook Gao Yi's. Both of them used brute force as if they were proving something, and alas, it was Chu Lui who released his grip first.
”No matter when—if you're mean to them, I will come back.”
Chu Lui looked at Gao Yi directly in his eyes and enunciated his every word clearly.
No matter where he would be in the future, as long as Gao Yi dared to be mean towards his two women, even if he had to chase him until the end of the Earth; he would not let him off.
”Don't worry. You won't have this chance.” Gao Yi shook Chu Lui's hand again.
”Goodbye and take care.”
Chu Lui did not respond. He turned around, carried his luggage, and left alone with a lonely aura around him. Meanwhile, the smile on Gao Yi's lips had dropped bit by bit.

When Xia Ruoxin came back, she felt something was amiss.
At that time, she heard the door shut and thought that a particular man had come out to do something that showed his intentions. Just that, she had entered the house for so long; but that man still did not come out as if he had changed.
She placed her groceries in the kitchen and thought of what to cook at home today. After a while, she started getting frustrated about what to cook. She somewhat remembered someone saying that he wanted to eat steamed fish.
Today, she had indeed bought fish.
However, she could not remember who wanted to eat it. It seemed to be that guy. She ostracized him and did not like to note down what he said. It was her form of a small rebellion and revenge.
She started to wash her hands and cook. Just that when she took the fish out, she was stunned.
She wanted to make braised fish, but why did it become steamed fish instead?
She looked at the plate of fish for a long time and was unsure if she wanted to recook it again. However, it seemed like she could not do so unless she made the fish into soup. However, to cook such a big fish into a soup—to be honest, she really could not do it.
She was poor before—she suffered before—so every grain of rice was extremely precious to her, including Rainy of course. She ended up bringing her fish out.
”Oh, there's fish today?” Gao Yi was happy once he saw the fish.
However, when he came forward, he realized that it was not his favorite braised fish but steamed fish instead.
”You just recovered so you need to eat something light.” Xia Ruoxin set the chopsticks and came over to start eating.
Not long after, Wei Lan came as well back and brought Rainy to wash her face and hands before going to the table to eat. After they sat down, everyone started eating except for Xia Ruoxin who had not touched her chopsticks.
