Mu Lingshi's voice was determined and decisive while her eyes were exceptionally bright as they were fixed on Gu Qiwu. "Can you agree to this request?"

Gu Qiwu's stiffened and surprise flashed across his eyes, yet he felt even more suppressed joy as he answered with a lowered voice, "Yes, I'll agree to you! When we go back this time, I'll never step foot in City Z again, and I won't interfere with any matters or decisions between Shasha and Qi Feng. I'll stay out of it forever!"

He agreed to her without hesitation.

Upon hearing that, Mu Lingshi took a deep breath and finished the tea in her cup and set it aside. She closed her eyes and calmed down for a long while before slowly getting up and suddenly turning around to leave.

"Let me know when you're done arranging everything. Actually, give me a heads-up a few days in advance so that I can be prepared too," Mu Lingshi's calm voice floated in the air, and then her figure gradually disappeared out of the doorway.

Gu Qiwu watched her leave quietly, and he was not sure how long had passed when he suddenly felt his eyes well up with hot tears.

This was something that had never happened before...

He did not know if he could call these feelings he felt anticipation or was it something else?

...

At West Hill Cemetery, Doris's ashes were temporarily laid to rest. The funeral was a simple one. At this moment, most of the people who attended the funeral had left. Before this tombstone, only Gu Lingsha and Qi Feng were left. Of course, behind them was also the black-clothed bodyguard holding up a black umbrella for them.

The monotonous black was reflected in the black and white photo on the tombstone. Everything looked serene. The longer Gu Lingsha looked at the photo on the tombstone, the sadder she felt. Before that, when she saw Doris's body wheeled in to be cremated into ashes, she had almost fainted from crying. Thankfully, Qi Feng had supported her by the side.

Perhaps it was at this moment that she could truly feel who was the one guarding her side...

Her swollen red eyes could not cry anymore. They hurt from the dryness and had swelled up a lot. She sniffled and her voice was extremely raspy when she said, "Mother, rest peacefully here for now. When I've handled things here, after I feel better and have stabilized things, I'll bring you away from this place. We won't return to City B anymore. I know that's where you felt unhappy too, so we won't return there. Instead, I'll bring you home to England and bury you on the beach that you love, Mother..."

When Qi Feng heard that, his heart sank. His expression looked exceptionally silent as he stared at Doris's photo. After a while, he reached out to hold Gu Lingsha's hand.

"Alright now, don't be too sad. She will rest peacefully. Us doing well would be the best way to repay her."

Qi Feng did not know whether he should resent Doris. If it were not for her, he would not be like this right now, but before Doris died, she did not rat him out either. Instead, she had taken it all on herself. In fact, from her standpoint, she just wanted to let Gu Lingsha have something, so...

Perhaps many grudges ended just like that. With a person's forever silence, it gradually faded away. He was willing to let go, but with the path before him paved like that, who would truly let Qi Feng go?

Upon feeling the faint warmth from Qi Feng's hand, Gu Lingsha subconsciously held his tightly and sniffled nonstop.

"Don't think too much. I'm still here. Don't worry! I will take good care of you and Weiwei. Don't be sad now." Qi Feng was not one who knew how to console others, so saying all that was hard for him.
