As soon as Liang Dani woke up, she noticed Yun Lisa's disappearance, and even the backpack in the corner was gone. She instantly began screaming shrilly.

"Mom! Mom! Yun Lisa ran off!"

She yanked open the door, but it was still deadbolted shut from the outside.

However, the screen had already been cut off.

Chen Lixue also ran over from the kitchen when she heard the loud screams and hurriedly opened the lock

"'Momi Yun Lisa ran off! What do we do?!"

"Don't worry! We'll go to town and chase after her right now!"

Chen Lixue ripped off her apron and ran outside as soon as she heard that Yun Lisa had escaped.

However, she was stopped by Liang Weimin as soon as she got out of the house.

"What are you chasing her for? Even if you run over there right now, the train would've left already!"

Chen Lixue was at her wit's end. "Old Liang, what should we do? If she ends up returning to the Yuns, this will force Yeri to take her own life!"

Liang Weimin glanced at her and, although he hadn't expected Yun Lisa to run off, this could be considered the best ending for her.

He was useless as her uncle and stuck in the middle, so this was the most he could do for her.

"Yun Lisa has never seen her parents, nor does she know the Yuns' address. She might not be able to find the Yuns even if she returned to Jingdu, so what are you even worried about?!"

Liang Weimin was speaking the truth, and this was precisely what he was worried about since he didn't know where Yun Lisa would run off to.

The outside world was a very complicated place, so there was no way she could handle it as a girl who had never experienced anything before.

The train had already left, so he didn't even know where to go find her!

Chen Lixue finally realized that this was the truth; even if the wretched girl returned to Jingdu, it might not even impact them at all.

"Right, right! She doesn't have any money on her, so she might even run back here if she can't find the Yuns! She's just a girl who doesn't know anything, so she should suffer a bit and learn a few hard lessons so she knows what's good for her!"

Chen Lixue would wait for Yun Lisa to come back home after all. Even if the Yuns stopped sending living allowances to them, Chen Lixue still had ways to make Yun Lisa drop out of school and start working so she could earn money to support them.

Yun Lisa's nerves finally calmed down when the train started to move.

She had bought a ticket for a seat on the train. It would take more than ten hours to arrive at Jingdu, and she was bored with nothing to do, so she began examining the jade pendant hidden in her backpack.

It was a white, jade pendant carved into the shape of a dragon, with exquisite workmanship and translucent stone quality.

She had brought this jade pendant to the village when she was young, but it didn't belong to the Yuns. This had been gifted by the Jiangs when they'd agreed to the arranged marriage with the Yuns all those years ago.
