Although the night was late, Mrs. Cheng's room was still brightly lit. When Gong Mengshu walked in, Mrs. Cheng was chatting happily with her second wife, Man Zhen, and her grandmother, Lin Xuexian. And Cheng Molin, who returned late, was also there. Seeing Gong Mengshu enter, several people stopped talking in unison.

Gong Mengshu hesitated for a moment, but walked straight to Mrs. Cheng, and knelt down with a "plop"!

Gong Mengshu's actions startled Mrs. Cheng, and she hurriedly asked the young grandmother to help her up. But Gong Mengshu knelt on the ground and refused to get up, she raised her head and stared at the old lady and said, "Grandma, thank you for taking care of me for so many years, I come to say goodbye to you today...... I'm going home......" Her voice choked up.

"You, what stupid thing are you talking about?!" Old Mrs. Cheng had never seen Gong Mengshu in such a posture, seeing that Lin Xuexian couldn't help Gong Mengshu, she was so panicked that she bent down and wanted to hold Gong Mengshu, but Gong Mengshu bent down and kowtowed to Mrs. Cheng three times in a dignified manner, before she raised her head and said with tears in her eyes: "After I leave, please take care of the old lady and be careful, I have explained your usual work and rest habits to the girl Cuigu, and she will serve you in the future, and she should be the same as when I was here...... ”

"Good manner, why are you leaving?" said Mrs. Cheng puzzled, "Is it just because Rui Kai wants to marry a wife? I have worked hard to cultivate you for so many years, not to make you angry, but to protect Ruikai well. Now that Rikai has a wife and has children, you should also be happy for him, how can you just leave?

"Meng Shu never dared to ask for anything, just wanted the second young master to be healthy and safe. Now that he is about to marry a wife, I think although I have fulfilled my grandmother's entrustment, but for the second young master, I have already done what I should do, so I think this is the best time for me to leave......" Gong Mengshu wept.

"Absolutely not, Mengshu! If the second brother comes back and knows that I hurt you because I talk too much, he will have to kill me!" Cheng Molin hurriedly turned white on the side, she had already woken up after drinking too much wine during the day, she was a little annoyed by her gaffe today, and Li Zhehan had already said her on the way back to send her back.

"What did you say to Mengshu?" the second wife, Man Zhen, lowered her face and asked Cheng Molin, but Cheng Molin couldn't answer. Gong Mengshu stopped the second wife, Man Zhen, from asking Cheng Molin again, and she said in a hoarse voice: "My departure has nothing to do with anyone. I just want to leave and leave, and I hope the old lady will be perfect!" he said and bowed again.

Mrs. Cheng was stunned for a long time before she said: "That's it, you didn't sell yourself to the Cheng family at the beginning, but you have been with Rui Kai until now, if you really want to talk about it, but our Cheng family owes you, if you really don't want to be here, then you can go——"

"Thank you, grandma," Gong Mengshu couldn't bear his face, and tears fell like pearls with broken threads. The young grandmother hurriedly helped Gong Mengshu up on the side and comforted her in a low voice. And the second wife Man Zhen looked at Gong Mengshu and said: "Actually, Miss Gong, I know that you have made up your mind and persuade you not to move, but before you leave, I also want to advise you: Although you will only be Ruikai's partial house in the future, you have to remember one thing, even if you are Ruikai's concubine, it is far more than a hundred times stronger than the main room of ordinary people......"

"Thank you for the advice of the second wife," Gong Mengshu owed, and then raised his eyes, but he was neither humble nor arrogant: "I understand these truths, but I want to take the path I want to take, no matter how difficult the process is, I will go all the way to the end!"

"Yes, I can't see that Miss Gong is so backbone, it seems that our Cheng family can't afford you as a great bodhisattva, so I'll wait and see for you!" The second wife, Man Zhen, sneered lightly and stopped talking.

Gong Mengshu stood in place, looking back at Mrs. Cheng who couldn't wipe her tears, and then looked at the ladies and ladies in the room, she bowed down again and said: "Thank you ladies and ladies, Mengshu will leave tomorrow, and please cherish it more in the future!" After speaking, he didn't dare to stay any longer, and hurriedly rushed out, and heard Cheng Molin's panicked shouts behind him: "Don't go, Mengshu, you are gone, what should I do?"

Gong Mengshu paused for a moment when she heard this, but did not look back, and then walked quickly across the corridor, and disappeared in an instant.

Lin Xuexian sighed and said to Cheng Molin: "It seems that even your second brother can't keep Mengshu......

On the night she was leaving, someone knocked on Gong Mengshu's door from time to time, trying to stop her from leaving, and Cheng Molin's voice was especially loud outside. But Gong Mengshu was packing her luggage in the house and no longer answered the door. Cheng Molin's voice was finally suppressed by Cheng Chazhong's reprimand: "In the middle of the night, you use your hot face to stick someone else's cold ass! Our Cheng family is not a cage, as for begging like this? If you don't want to stay, just leave! This is good, you can save each other's worries! You won't owe each other anything in the future! Hmph!"

Gong Mengshu heard Cheng Chazhong's angry scolding and wanted to open the door and go out to explain the situation to him, but after listening to his words, he dispelled his thoughts, anyway, they are all people who are leaving, why go out and anger the Cheng family master again? She sighed softly, her throat still choked.

There were a lot of things to pack, and Gong Mengshu took almost nothing with him. The things that the Cheng family bought for her, except for one set of clothes on her body and two sets of clothes, the rest of the things did not move. This didn't belong to her in the first place, and she didn't want to owe anything to the Cheng family anymore.

She stroked the wood grain texture of the table, chair and bed with her slender fingers, moving slowly and full of attachment, she pressed her face against the wooden bedside, feeling the smooth and cold texture. When she was a child, she and Cheng Ruikai lived at home, and they liked to lie on it the most. She opened her hazy teary eyes, and Cheng Ruikai's voice was still vaguely in her ears: "Mengshu, you are not allowed to marry anyone else when you grow up, you can only marry me for the rest of your life!"

Gong Mengshu's face had a tearful smile, but his heart was dead.

The next day, when the sky was still bright, Gong Mengshu left Chengfu with a small baggage. She left quietly, trying not to alarm anyone. She pushed the thick vermilion gate and flashed out, only to see a bicycle parked in the corner of the Cheng family's gate, and there was a person sitting on it.

Gong Mengshu was a little surprised, she paused and looked at the man for a moment, then stepped forward and asked, "You, why are you here?"

"Didn't you promise that I could come to you?" Huang Qilun shrunk his shoulders, his hair and thin shirt were wet with dew, he looked very embarrassed and pitiful, "I'm afraid that it's too late, you're going out again, and you can't sleep in the middle of the night, so I came here before dawn to wait for you......"

Gong Mengshu's eyes were red, and he was almost about to cry again. She sniffed and said to Huang Qilun: "You don't have to worry, you can come to me at any time in the future, but don't be here, I have already left the Cheng Mansion......"

"Yes, that's great!" Huang Qilun said happily: "I actually wanted you not to be a descendant of the Cheng family for a long time. I, I really feel sorry for you-" He blushed as he spoke, not daring to raise his eyes to look at Gong Mengshu.

Gong Mengshu stood for a moment holding the burden, and said, "I don't have a job now, can you support me?"

"Ah, you, you mean ——?" Huang Qilun blinked, almost unable to believe his ears, but in an instant, he had already understood what Gong Mengshu meant, and immediately overjoyed, and replied busily: "Yes, I am willing, I am very, very willing! Mengshu, you can rest assured! As long as I have something to eat, I will never be hungry for you in the future! Also, I will only be good to you for the rest of my life......"

"Then I remember your words," Gong Mengshu endured the pain in his heart that was almost bursting, and said in a trembling voice: "Let's go, get out of here early-"

"It's done, it's done!" Huang Qilun hurriedly let Gong Mengshu sit in the car, then hung the small burden in her hand on the car and shook her head, and then began to kick the bicycle hard. Gong Mengshu sat on the bicycle, looking back at the majestic courtyards of Chengfu fading away from her field of vision little by little, she couldn't help but feel a sigh in her heart, a tear couldn't help but slip from her eyes again, and she hurriedly wiped it away with her fingers.

From now on, she should not look back, she should look forward. Although the man who was struggling to pedal the bicycle in front of her at this moment was not tall and handsome, his back was not generous enough, he was not rich or prosperous, but he was real and real, an entity that she could touch with her hands.

The car drove over the embankment of the lake, the lake was rippling, but the people in the back seat of the car were full of melancholy. That's it, Gong Mengshu turned her gaze back from the lake in a daze, turned her head numbly, no longer looked at the road behind her, there were rare tears in her eyes, but she hoped that the breeze could dry the tears in her eyes and heart, and from now on she would no longer be sad, angry and painful.

Say goodbye to the Cheng family, goodbye to friendship, goodbye to love, goodbye to Ruikai!
