Liang Wan watched as Bai Lu and Gu Yu half-supported, half-carried her up, her consciousness gradually fading.
She fought to remain conscious, shaking her head at Zhou Yun with great effort.
How could Zhou Yun not understand? His tone was reassuring.
"His situation is perilous right now. He can't rest easy with you in Jinye. Your leaving removes one of his vulnerabilities. Once he's out of trouble, how could he not come find you?"
With that, he looked away from her, waved his hand, and said in a grave voice, "Take care."
'Wait for Lu Xiu to come find me?'
Liang Wan wanted to scoff, but in the next instant, her consciousness plunged into darkness.
A carriage sped down the main road, and in the blink of an eye, all that remained was a cloud of dust and two long ruts in the dirt.
The clatter of hooves and the rumble of wheels accompanied a violent jolting that made her bones ache, as if she were about to fall apart.
