Nalan Chunbo closed the door behind him and looked at the fifty dollars in his palm. He scoffed and put the note on top of the shoe cabinet at the door, only to turn back not long after to keep it in his wallet.
He knew what the way the girl looked at him meant, but a person like him did not deserve to be happy.
So he would rather not waste the girl’s time.
Wen Shan stayed outside the door for some time then let out a sigh. She turned to look at the closed door and yelled loudly, “Let me buy you a meal someday, Papa Nalan. To thank you for helping me.” Not wanting to give Nalan Chunbo the chance to turn her down, Wen Shan left his place quickly.
Nalan Chunbo heard Wen Shan and was speechless.
Such a persistent little girl.
Nalan Chunbo sat down in front of his desk and switched on his laptop to send an email to resign from the position of Asia Pacific Regional Head of International Bank.
Nalan Chunbo leaned against his chair with his eyes closed after hitting “send” on his laptop. He needed some time to figure out who he really was, and what he really wanted to do.
Meanwhile, Ye Yuwei and Gu Juexi were still stuck in the woods. Ye Yuwei was dozing off in Gu Juexi’s arms as night fell.
Gu Juexi found some fruits to eat. Ye Yuwei had a few and noticed that the fruits only quenched thirst but not hunger.
“Get some sleep if you are tired. We will have to cross the swamp if help doesn’t come by tomorrow,” said Gu Juexi who snuggled into Ye Yuwei while looking at the moon.
Crossing the swamp was the worst and last option they had and Gu Juexi would never choose it unless necessary.
Ye Yuwei shook her head and refused to sleep.
“I miss Xixi and Xicheng,” said Ye Yuwei softly. She felt cold even with Gu Juexi’s coat covering her.
