Lou Xi and the old lady chatted for a long time, later putting the call on speaker so Qin Mobai could listen from the side.
She looked at Qin Mobai's serious expression, probably wishing this situation would end soon. Whether it was him, Lou Xi, the old lady, or others who care about him, they could all move on from the grief of losing him.
Eventually, Lou Xi calmed the old lady and told her she'd return to Nancheng in a few days, reassuring her not to worry.
After hanging up the phone, Lou Xi leaned on Qin Mobai's lap, feeling a bit heavy-hearted.
Qin Mobai caressed Lou Xi's cheek tenderly and said, "Grandma mentioned that she wouldn't restrict your freedom."
Not restricting Lou Xi's freedom means she could leave the Qin Family and find new happiness elsewhere.
It seemed the old lady was understanding, thinking Lou Xi was still young. Having lost her husband so young, finding new love wouldn't be wrong.
