Wen Zhi held up the cup of black tea and said, "He and I have separated."

Mu Yanzhou put down the teapot and paused.

At the same time, Gu Rang also looked over.

Nian Xun is the calmest because he is an outsider.

"That's fine." Mu Yanzhou retracted his hand and looked much calmer: "Then get ready and leave for Haishi in three days."

Wen Zhi took a sip of black tea, and the tip of his tongue felt a little bitter.

Although she won't really go to Haishi, she still wants to know one thing.

She suddenly tilted her head and asked, "How long do you plan to be exiled to the sea market this time?"

She used the word 'exile'.

Because of her family situation, any place her father sends her is tantamount to exile.

Naturally, Mu Yanzhou didn't explain too much. He just said, "It depends on yourself how long it takes. After you learn all your skills with Nian Xun, you can come back."

Wen Zhi nodded and said, "I understand."

Then she stood up and said, "I have something else to do, so I'll leave first."

Mu Yanzhou stopped her and said, "Zhi Zhi."

Wen Zhi paused, but didn't look back.

Mu Yanzhou stood up slowly. He stretched out his hand and gently strangled Wen Zhi's arm, pulling her back a little.

Wen Zhi refused to cooperate and her limbs were slightly stiff, until Mu Yanzhou pulled her into his arms and held her gently, saying: "Take care of yourself outside."

Wen Zhi closed his eyes forcefully: "I know."

Mu Yanzhou: "You don't need to contact me."

Wen Zhi suddenly chuckled, with a somewhat sarcastic tone: "You are overthinking, I will definitely not contact you."

Mu Yanzhou patted Wen Zhi's back gently.

When Wen Zhi left, Gu Rang left with her.

Mu Yanzhou stared in that direction for a long time.

Until Nian Xun stood beside him and said, "Don't worry Zhou, I will take good care of her when I take her to Haishi." When Mu Yanzhou spoke again, his tone became darker: "I'm just entrusting my daughter to you for the time being. Take care, if you let me know that you have thoughts that you shouldn't have, I will make you shed a layer of your skin."

Nian Xun sneered lightly: "Is it necessary?"

"Although I won't go to Haishi, I will arrange for many pairs of eyes to keep an eye on him." Mu Yanzhou glanced sideways at Nian Xun: "I'll leave it at that. Believe it or not is up to you."

Nian Xun: "..."
-
Wen Zhi got into Gu Rang's car again: "Take me back to the merchant's old house."

Gu Rang didn't want to drive, so he called the driver, who leaned over and sat in the back: "Are you going out with Zhong Wanying tomorrow?"

Wen Zhi stared at Gu Rang defensively: "What are you going to do?"

"What can I do?" Gu Rang smiled bitterly: "You still can't trust me completely?"

Wen Zhi: "I don't believe anyone."

Gu Rang: "..."

The car started, heading towards the merchant's old house.

After half an hour's drive, Wen Zhi returned to the business. Gu Rang did not go in, but just told Wen Zhi: "If you need my help tomorrow, just call me."

Wen Zhi nodded.

After Gu Rang left, Wen Zhi was going to meet Chong Wanying to determine the route arrangement for tomorrow.

Just outside Chong Wanying's yard, Wen Zhi met Shang Jing, whom she hadn't seen for many days. She deliberately avoided it and turned around, but Shang Jing immediately stopped her——

"Wen Zhi! You are avoiding me again!"

Wen Zhi stood still until Shang Jing approached, put his hand on her shoulder and tried to make her turn around.

At this time, Chong Wanying's voice came: "Shang Jing, don't be rude to Zhi Zhi."

Shang Jing didn't listen to Zhong Wanying's reminder at all and insisted on turning Wen Zhi around: "Why are you hiding? You hide every time you see me. Am I that scary?"

Wen Zhi met Shang Jing's depressed gaze and replied to him lukewarmly: "Avoid suspicion."

Shang Jing was in disbelief: "What did you say?"

Wen Zhi said without changing his expression: "After all, I am your future sister-in-law, you have to respect me."
