Although she was busy, her movements were gentle and meticulous. She wrung out the wet towel and gently wiped Tang Feng's hands and face with a serene smile on her face. Then she poured away the dirty water in the basin, went out to fetch food, and fed Tang Feng with a spoon.

  She tirelessly fulfilled Tang Feng's requests, serving him tea and water, sweeping the floor and cooking for him, chatting with him, never showing any signs of dissatisfaction. Bai Xiaoleng also had no idea that he was willing to spend so much thought on taking care of a man more than ten years younger than himself, and still doing it so willingly.

  Since that day, Tang Feng fainted after eating, Bai Xiaolou took care of him with extreme gentleness for three days, and except for going back to sleep at night, she accompanied Tang Feng without leaving his side.

  She knew that Tang Feng was pretending to be dizzy.

  Tang Feng's current body is many times better than before, how could he faint from eating a bit more? But even if she knew, Bai Xiaolou wouldn't point it out.

  Both of them pretended to be stupid, one pretending to be ill and lying in bed, the other serving him with all kinds of tenderness, just like two mischievous children playing house.

  After feeding Tang Feng, Bai Xiaoleng wiped his mouth again and sat on the edge of the bed. With a pair of small hands held in Tang Feng's palm, her cheeks flushed slightly as she bowed her head and whispered: "Ah Feng, I really have to go."

  Tang Feng let out a sigh. He had pretended to be ill in order to keep Bai Xiaolou for a few more days, hoping to persuade her to stay behind. But now it seemed that his plan had failed. Over the past few days, Tang Feng had also tried to bring up the topic several times, but each time he did, Bai Xiaolou would not be willing to say anything more, merely smiling and shaking her head.

  "Lazy sister, won't you go?" Tang Feng grasped Bai Xiaolazi's wrist tightly and asked softly.

  "Idiot, stop being reckless. Have you forgotten what you told me before? It's not too late to come find me when you've figured it out." Bai Xiaolou gently stroked Tang Feng's cheek with one hand, "You're still too young, and by the time you've really grown up, Lazy Sister might already be old and worn out. Moreover, as a man, your gaze shouldn't be fixed on just one woman, especially one who is much older than you. On your path to growth in the future, there will be many women around your age waiting for you, and you'll find that they're even better than Lazy Sister, and more suitable for you."

  Tang Feng smiled bitterly, knowing that he could no longer change Bai Xiaolou's mind. He also knew that the other person was doing it for his own good, not wanting to let women entangle his future.

  He thought that if he used some unscrupulous means to force Bai Xiaolou to stay, she would definitely stay based on her performance over the past few days. However, Tang Feng did not want to make her do something she was unwilling to do.

  "Alright, this is my last time asking you. I won't ask again, Lazy Sister, when are you leaving?" Tang Feng forced a smile and asked.

  "Let's go now!"

  Tang Feng rubbed his forehead with his hand and sighed: "Lazy sister, you really can put it up and take it down."

  Bai Xiao's eyes reddened as he said in a low voice, "Ah Feng, take good care of yourself from now on."

  "En." Tang Feng nodded, "Lazy sister, have a smooth journey. When you leave, bring the door with you, it's a bit cold from the wind."

  After finishing speaking, he lay down along the bed again and pulled his quilt tightly over him.

  Bai Xiaoluo looked at Tang Feng for a moment, suppressing the tears in her eyes, then turned and slowly walked out, gently closing the door behind her.

  She didn't have much stuff, just some things she bought last time in Jing'an City, and after packing them up neatly, she was done.

  Several people in the courtyard looked at her silently and then sent her to the gate.

  Qin Si Niang pulled on Bai Xiao Lan's hand and asked softly: "Xiao Lan, won't you reconsider?"

  Bai Xiao lazily shook his head: "Ye Chenqiu is dead, I need to go back to White Emperor City and tell my sister."

  Tang Feixiao poked her head out from behind: "After saying that, hurry back, Feng Shao can't bear to part with you."

  The fourth daughter glared fiercely at Xiao Shu, then turned to Bai Xiaolou and said: "Did you tell him?"

  Bai Xiaoluo raised his head and looked at the tightly closed door, his expression dimming: "I just said so."

  Qin Si Niang also let out a sigh, by all accounts, Feng Shao was also a bold and daring character, at this time shouldn't he know to come out and see him off? Why is he hiding in his room and not coming out? You have to understand, once Bai Xiao Lan leaves, who knows when they'll meet again.

  "Alright, I'm leaving. Take care, everyone!" Bai Xiaolou took a deep breath, as if he was making an extremely difficult decision.

  Then, just as he was about to take a step forward, a sudden burst of ancient zither music came from behind him, with a sound like golden armor and iron horses galloping, yet also like jade falling onto a silver plate, clear and crisp. The melody was mournful and desolate, yet boundless and majestic, making one's heart ache in an instant.

  Then, Tang Feng's voice, full of infinite tenderness yet powerful and sonorous, came through the room.

  The Tsang Hai smiles, surging tides on both shores, floating and sinking with the waves, a record of today.

  The heavens laugh, and the world's tides surge; who loses and who wins is known to heaven.

  The mountains and rivers smile, the misty rain is distant, the waves have washed away all worldly affairs, how much do you know?

  The gentle breeze laughs, and suddenly disturbs the quiet night, leaving only a lingering sunset glow!

  The moment the singing started, Bai Xiao's lazy steps came to a halt, her whole body stiffened instantly, and her slender figure couldn't help but tremble. The tears that had been strongly held back in her eyes finally fell down her cheeks, dripping onto the ground, splashing out a patch of teardrops.

  She listened to this lonely, desolate and bleak song, her heart was struck by a huge hammer, suffocating and unable to breathe. She felt heartache, her fingertips were numb, the whole world only had one person left, one song, filling her heart, heavy and sinking.

  She wanted to turn back, but she didn't dare to turn back, she was afraid that once she turned around, she would never be able to leave again.

  Her shoulders shook as she suppressed her sobs, her hands covering her cheeks, tears streaming out.

  The singing continues, mixed with the Tang wind's desolate and crazy laughter, the low-pitched guqin accompanies him, responding to his emotions.

  Ha ha ha ha, the vast ocean laughs, the surging tides on both shores, floating and sinking with the waves, a record of today.

  The heavens laugh, and the world's tides surge; who loses or wins is known only to heaven.

  The mountains smile, distant mist and rain, waves wash away all worldly affairs, how much does one know?

  Cang Sheng laughs, no longer lonely, heroic feelings still in silly smiles!

  Bai Xiaoluo could no longer suppress his emotions and burst into loud sobs.

  In the sorrowful and desolate sound of the guqin, Tang Feng let out a long laugh, then said in an extremely firm and resolute tone: "Lazy sister, within two years, I will definitely go to White Emperor City, take your hand, and grow old together!"

  Tang Feng's words had already been imbued with his internal energy, and although his voice wasn't loud, its penetrative power was extremely strong. He believed that even if it didn't cover the entire Tiān Xiù, at least half of the people there should have heard him.

  Bai Xiao's heart skipped a beat, she turned around and stared at the tightly closed door, her face filled with emotion. Although she was crying, her eyes were shining with happiness. Holding his hand, growing old together? How blissful would that be? Could she really have it for herself?

  Qin Si Niang wiped away the tears from her eyes and gently pushed her: "What are you still dazing about?"

  Bai Xiaoluo seemed to come back to his senses, smiled and nodded: "Alright, I'll wait for you!"

  Two years of waiting, even if it was in vain, Bai Xiaoluo had no regrets! Because today, Tang Feng gave her a great shock for life! She was already content and satisfied!

  After finishing speaking, Bai Xiaolou turned around and left. His originally heavy footsteps suddenly became light as if he had put down a huge burden on his heart, gradually disappearing from everyone's sight.

  The sound of the guqin in the house also gradually came to a stop.

  Qin Si Niang couldn't stop wiping away the tears from her eyes, but after wiping one string of tears, another string would flow down, and she couldn't wipe them all away. She quietly turned her head to look around, and saw that Bao Er and Meng Er had already cried until their faces were swollen and red, with puffy eyes.

  Fourth daughter sighed slightly, women, why are they so easily moved?

  Take another look at Tang Feixiao, Qin Si Niang almost laughed out loud.

  Tang Feixiao, who was normally as tough as iron, was also slightly red-eyed at this moment. He felt a bit embarrassed and covered his eyes with his hand. Seeing Si Niang looking at him, Tang Feixiao awkwardly said: "The sunlight is really dazzling!"

  Si Niang glared at him, then walked over and gently nestled into Xiao Shu's arms. Tang Fei was stunned for a moment before tightly hugging Qin Si Niang.

  "Lao Tang, can you and I also grow old together hand in hand?" Qin Si Niang asked.

  Tang Fei smiled and nodded seriously: "That's natural."

  Fourth daughter sighed: "Little lazy girl is a bit self-abased, she's afraid that she can't match up to Feng Shao. If it were in the past, she probably wouldn't have had this idea, but now...Feng Shao has risen from Lian Pai eighth rank to Huang Jie upper rank in just ten days, and it won't take long for him to reach Tian Jie either. This kind of talent is enough to make anyone feel self-abased."

  Tang Feixiao was taken aback: "You're saying that Xiaolan left Feng Shao because of her own inferiority complex?"

  The fourth daughter nodded: "Women understand women, if I were to replace myself with Xiaolan, I would also feel inferior. Two years is not a long or short time, during which many things can happen and test one's feelings, especially for you men! At that time, if Feng Shao still has her in his heart, she will naturally be happy; if Feng Shao doesn't have her in his heart, she will also be happy, because this way she won't become a stumbling block to Feng Shao's growth."

  Tang Fei smiled wistfully: "Are all you women so kind? Back then when I treated you like that, you didn't have any intention of hating me!"

  "When it comes to the people they like, women's tolerance is very strong." Qin Si Niang looked up at Tang Fei Xiao with a slightly shy expression, her originally gentle face suddenly sank, took a deep breath, stretched out a pink fist, and precisely hit one of Xiao Shu's eyes, gritting her teeth: "Can you not look at the beautiful woman walking over there?"

  Tang Fei laughed miserably and covered her eyes, saying: "Sorry, I'm used to it."

  Qin Si Niang said angrily: "A dog can't change its habit of eating feces! Wasting my breath talking so much, sleep on the floor tonight!"
