Chu Xuyuan and Chu Xuyao saw that the other party’s attitude was so sincere, so they did not pursue the matter. In any case, they were not injured.

The young man gratefully left.

Arriving at the inn, Chu Xuyuan and Chu Xuyao handed the couplet to Zhuang Yuyan.

Zhuang Yuyan was about to open it to see when Xu Guannan approached, “Yuyan, the headmaster is looking for you.”

“Alright, I’ll be right there,” Zhuang Yuyan reluctantly said, “I’ll look at it when 1 come back. Xuyuan, you should go to the Imperial College for the competition. Don’t delay your important matters.”

Chu Xuyuan nodded, “Okay.”

In the General’s Mansion.

After breakfast, Lu Yichen put down his chopsticks and said, “Jinghong, I plan to leave.”

“You haven’t fully recovered from your injuries. There’s no need to leave in such a hurry. There are no outsiders here. You are safe.”

“It’s not about that. I have things to do.” Someone was urging him to return.

“Are you sure you want to leave?”

“Positive.”

“Then I won’t keep you.”

“I’ll pack my things and leave. 1 won’t wait for you to come back from the court.”

“Aren’t you going to say goodbye to Wu Yaqing?” He had promised Wu Yaqing to ask Lu Yichen, and this seemed like the right opportunity.

Lu Yichen was stunned for a moment. “1 should indeed say goodbye to her.” “Why have you been hot and cold towards Wu Yaqing?” He intended to ask subtly, but it felt odd however he phrased it, so he decided to be direct.

Lu Yichen fell silent.

Even Tang Jinghong didn’t know his secret. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have asked.

After a while, he replied with a tinge of bitterness, “Jinghong, I have my reasons.”

“I understand that you have your reasons, but as a man, don’t avoid issues, especially in matters of the heart.”

Lu Yichen reached out and patted Tang Jinghong’s shoulder. He suddenly smiled and said, “In the past, you were like a block of wood when it came to matters of the heart. Have you been enlightened?”

Tang Jinghong retorted, “Do you intend to hurt Wu Yaqing?”

“Why would I hurt her for no reason?”

Tang Jinghong spoke earnestly, “Exactly. Wu Yaqing is genuinely a good person. If you miss this chance, you might end up single forever.”

Lu Yichen was left pondering.

“1’11 go find Wu Yaqing now.”

Tang Jinghong watched him leave like he was escaping and smiled helplessly before going to change clothes for court.

Lu Yichen arrived at the Chu Residence, “Is Wu Yaqing here?”

The guard recognized Lu Yichen and bowed, “Miss Wu has not left the house. If Third Master wishes to see her, 1 will inform her immediately.”

Lu Yichen nodded.

Soon after, Wu Yaqing and the guard came out.

Wu Yaqing was very happy to see Lu Yichen. She walked over and gently patted Lu Yichen’s shoulder. “Why are you here?”

Lu Yichen turned around, his gaze momentarily dazzled by Wu Yaqing’s radiant smile, “I’m leaving. I came to say goodbye and to thank you for taking care of me recently.”

Wu Yaqing’s smile slowly faded, her good mood plummeting, and she asked reluctantly, “Where are you going?”

Lu Yichen deliberately ignored her reaction, “To where 1 must go.”

Wu Yaqing’s eyes locked onto Lu Yichen, her fingers tightening on her sleeve, “Will you come back?”

Lu Yichen looked ahead, his usually cold and deep eyes showing a hint of something more, “Maybe, I’m not sure.”

Wu Yaqing tilted her head to look at Lu Yichen’s profile, realizing she had never observed him so closely before. She meticulously traced the contours of his face and found him to be a remarkably handsome man. Despite his somewhat cold demeanor, everything else about him was quite appealing.

“If you come back, you can find me. I’ll treat you to a meal.”

Wu Yaqing rubbed her face, knowing her personality was not suited for tears and sorrow. After feeling sad for a while, she recovered.

“Okay,” Lu Yichen said as he walked over to his horse. He mounted it, turned his head for a long, deep look at Wu Yaqing, and then rode off.

Wu Yaqing stood at the gate, watching intently in the direction Lu Yichen had left.

Chu Qingzhi came out of the residence and spotted Wu Yaqing, who looked absent-minded. “Yaqing, what are you looking at?”

Wu Yaqing turned and hugged Chu Qingzhi, feeling sad, “Lu Yichen has left.”

Chu Qingzhi gently patted Wu Yaqing’s back, “You seem quite upset. Have you fallen for him?”

Wu Yaqing shook her head, “1 don’t know, but I didn’t want him to leave.”

Chu Qingzhi comforted her, “You’ll see each other again in the future.”

Wu Yaqing brightened up, “Really, Qingzhi? Are you sure?”

“Of course, when have I ever lied to you?”

“When will I see him again?”

“Fate will bring you together when the time is right. Trust me, you two are destined.”

Hearing this, Wu Yaqing felt like the clouds had cleared, “Qingzhi, thank you for comforting me. I’m fine now.”

“Sometimes the waiting is beautiful too, Yaqing. What belongs to you will eventually come your way.”

“I know.”

Chu Qingyan, carrying a toolbox, went to Li Qingyu’s courtyard, “Mother, I’m going with Xiaochan to do her sister’s makeup. We won’t be back for lunch.”

Li Qingyu came out of the house, “Where does Xiaochan’s sister live?”

Xiaochan bowed and replied, “In the southern civilian area of the capital.”

Li Qingyu was a bit worried. She called over Xiaochun, the maid sent by Ning Yuting, “Xiaochun, go with them and come back early after lunch.”

Xiaochun obediently responded, “Yes, Madam.”

At the Imperial College, Go competition area.

Even though some matches had ended, no one wanted to waste the rare opportunity to socialize. The Imperial College was even livelier the next day.

When Chu Xuyuan arrived at the competition area, he saw Lin Jixian talking intimately with a young man in his early twenties.

With some time before the match began, Chu Xuyuan planned to find a place to read about Go. However, Lin Jixian called out to him, “Chu Xuyuan, scared to see me?”

Chu Xuyuan calmly replied, “Why should I be scared of you? You are not a man-eating monster, are you?”

Seeing Chu Qingzhi wasn’t there, Lin Jixian dropped the pretense and arrogantly said, “Then why are you avoiding me?”

“I’m going to read a book,” Chu Xuyuan replied, turning to leave. He didn’t want to waste time chatting pointlessly.

Lin Jixian rushed over and stopped him. He asked very concernedly, “What book do you want to read?” If he knew what book Chu Xuyuan was reading, he would roughly know his Go strategies.

Chu Xuyuan rolled his eyes. “It’s a divine book. After reading it, 1’11 definitely beat you today.”

Lin Jixian did not believe it. “How could there be such a book?”

“It’s up to you whether you believe me or not. It’s not important.” After saying that, Chu Xuyuan stepped aside and continued walking.

“Wait!” The young man who was talking to Lin Jixian called Lin Jibing stopped Chu Xuyuan. “Junior Brother, I’m very interested in the book you’re talking about. Can 1 borrow it?”

“Why should I lend it to you?” Chu Xuyuan turned around..
