“Yes, Master.”
The woman bowed respectfully to him.

Rong Qi was standing in front of Old Master Nan in the room, his hair white, and his face looked dull.
Rong Qi’s voice was choked with sobs. “Maybe this time… I won’t be able to come back…”
The old master shuddered and closed his eyes as if that were all he needed to calm his heart.
“Old Master, why? Why did you give this position to Nan Fang? Do you know how badly Wu Wei and the others died just because of a disagreement… He had used that as an excuse to kill them!”
Rong Qi closed his eyes in grief. He had thought that he could swallow his anger and survive until the last day, but in the end, Nan Fang still did not want to let him go.
It was impossible to say that he had no grudge against the old master.
However, he still hoped that the old master would stand up again and take charge of the Nan family.
“Old Master, back then you said that Young Lady was rebellious and made you fall sick, so you passed your position to Nan Fang. Is that true? You searched for Young Lady for so many years. It was hard to find her… Even if Young Lady disobeyed, you would not be mad at her…
“But why did you make such a decision to put the Nan family in such a situation. Do you know what the people said about our Nan family?” Rong Qi cried.
Old Master Nan’s fists trembled harder, but he knew that he could say nothing…
In his life, he could give up the Nan family; he could give up everything… Just to keep his daughter safe.
This was his last wish…
The old master took Rong Qi’s hand, trembling. His thin fingers slowly traced a word in Rong Qi’s palm.
‘Go!’
The only person left of those who had been with him was Rong Qi, and he did not want him to die in Nan Fang’s hands.
Rong Qi was trembling, and he held the old master’s hand tightly. “Old Master, do you have something you want to say but can’t say? Did that bastard threaten you with something? Young Lady… She said you drove her out of the family back then, but I don’t believe it. Where did she go?”
The old master opened his mouth, he could not make a sound, but his mouth’s shape was the same as the word he had just written: Go!
‘Go as far away as you can and never come back!’
“Old Master!” Rong Qi’s eyes filled with tears. He eventually let go of the old man’s hand, took a few steps back, and bowed respectfully. “Master, take care!”
All these years, Nan Fang had never allowed him to leave Nan City.
‘This time, this opportunity has come!’
If the old master would not say anything, he must find her even if he has to go through thousands of mountains and rivers. He wanted to know the truth!
Rong Qi did not look at the old master again; he firmly turned around and walked out of the manor.
He did not know if he would have another chance to come back again and was afraid that he would not be able to leave again once he returned…
The old master gazed in the direction of Rong Qi’s departure and was lost in his thought…
‘If you can leave this time, don’t come back! Nan City is not the same as it used to be.’

Feng Manor, Wu Shang City.
Tian Ya looked panicked. He rushed toward Nan Xian, who was guarding outside of the room and grabbed his lapels.
