But now, after freeing his hands, wanting to tidy himself up is truly an effortless task.

After a brief moment of surprise, An Bingfeng understood.

An Yu agreed so quickly, but in reality, it probably wasn’t as easy as he claimed.

"Conditions?" An Bingfeng asked.

After An Bingfeng uttered these two words, An Yu’s presence also began to relax.

Since he mentioned those two words, it indicated that there was still room for maneuver in this matter.

"I want to see Ningning, tonight I want to return to Taohua Village," An Yu nervously made his request.

He knew that in An Ning’s heart, she actually didn’t want him to go back, because he couldn’t stay here permanently, the longer he stayed with Mrs. Yan, the more he would hurt her.

However, after leaving, it would be difficult to come back again.

After all, he was just a child, he wanted to properly enjoy the time spent with his mother and sister.

An Yu thought, he would be selfish one more time.

Once he leaves, Mrs. Yan will certainly be sad once again, so one more night wouldn’t make much of a difference.

An Bingfeng thought it over briefly and agreed, "Okay, but you must promise to leave by tomorrow morning."

Others have nothing to do with him, he could only try to provide Mrs. Yan and An Ning with the best things possible, as long as it didn’t cause trouble for himself,

But it didn’t mean they held a certain place in his heart.

After An Bingfeng agreed, An Yu finally relaxed.

Even if he had to leave, there always needed to be a farewell.

"I also need ten thousand taels of silver," An Yu said.

Ten thousand taels of silver was not a small sum, but to An Bingfeng, it was merely a drizzle.

So, he still agreed, "Alright."

Only then did An Yu smile, a smile extremely bitter.

It’s justified for An Ning to blame and resent him, as he indeed acted without much thought.

Upon arriving here, he only wanted to live with his mother and sister, so he rashly disrupted Mrs. Yan and the separation.

But now, he didn’t have the ability to provide assurance for his future life.

The only thing he could strive for was the ten thousand silver, even though he knew in his heart that Mrs. Yan didn’t need silver, but rather the longing for love and companionship.

Perhaps due to a connection of hearts, An Yu felt that the closest person was always An Ning, yet the one he felt most guilty toward was Mrs. Yan.

His arrival indeed greatly impacted their lives.

In these days, An Yu reflected a lot.

If he hadn’t come here, maybe Mrs. Yan would’ve continued with Gao Muttu peacefully and unremarkably forever, her life wouldn’t have significant ups and downs, might not be very satisfactory, but at least better than growing old alone.

Ultimately, it was his arrival that affected her life.

However, An Yu didn’t regret coming here, he only regretted choosing the wrong time.

In the absence of ability, he did things that required substantial ability, causing those he wanted to protect to fall into the most awkward situation.

After taking the money from An Bingfeng, and under a very solemn promise, An Yu finally walked out of the County Office.

An Yu wasn’t very short, but he was still quite young compared to adults, so the horse he rode was slightly shorter.

Knowing that An Ning had left for quite some time, and was accompanied by Sikong Wuyou, An Yu realized that catching up would be difficult. 𝗳𝗿𝐞𝕖𝘄𝗲𝕓𝗻𝚘𝚟𝕖𝐥.𝚌𝕠𝕞

Yet, he still rushed along the way, hoping to catch up to An Ning and return together.
