"I see."

Li Yutong nodded, feeling a little lost. Su Chen's intention was already obvious. He refused to cooperate with him.

She also found it hard to believe that at such a young age, Su Chen had already become extremely determined. She knew very well what kind of person she was, but she refused even if he offered an offer that no man could refuse!

"In Huamanlou, you need status and status, status and status."

"Why are you thinking of leaving?"

Su Chen felt puzzled. From what he knew, Li Yutong's status in Huamanlou was not bad.

"So what?"

Li Yutong sarcastically laughed at himself, "I have my current status, isn't it because of those people who hold me in high esteem?"

"When the beauty is gone, they will support another one. As for me, who will care?"

After that, she looked at the lights by the lake and said with a lonely expression: "There are thousands of lights, but none of them belong to me."

"A building full of flowers is nothing more than a cage."

After saying that, she turned to Su Chen and smiled, "I'm sorry for letting Mr. Su see his funny side."

"It's really inappropriate for the young master to listen to Yutong's complaints. I hope you can forgive me."

For a moment, she seemed to have turned back into the flower-filled number one, but her eyes were still lonely.

"It doesn't matter."

Su Chen said calmly: "Miss Li longs for freedom outside the cage. This is not ridiculous, but it does not require you to trade with yourself. They say that men should strengthen themselves, but they say that women are inferior to men. It is ridiculous."

"It is the true nature of a man to be self-reliant. If a woman is not as good as she is, how can she allow others to judge her?"

Li Yutong noticed the change in Su Chen's address to him, his beautiful eyes lit up, he took a step back and bowed with great solemnity.

"Master Su, Yutong understands!"

After that, she turned and left. The difference was that the loneliness was no longer replaced by hope and vitality.

Su Chen smiled faintly and turned back to look at the fireworks scene in the world.

On the other side, Jiang Li also encountered the same thing.

But the difference is that he is the one who wants Alan to leave Huamanlou.

Alan leaned on the armrest, with thoughts in her eyes. After a while, she smiled and shook her head, "City Lord Jiang Shao, do you know why I am in Huamanlou?"

Jiang Li shook his head and said nothing, quietly waiting for the next step.

"That's because there are thousands of lights in the world, but none of them light up for me."

A faint flash of memory flashed across Alan's eyes, and he spoke in a calm tone, "I have a father who is addicted to gambling. After he owed a huge sum of money, he sold me as a young man to Huamanlou to pay off the debt.

.”

"Beast!" After hearing why Alan was in Hua Man Lou, Jiang Li clenched his hands violently. Although he told the story very calmly, a scene seemed to appear in front of his eyes. A ruthless man put his daughter in Hua Man Lou.

Then he left heartlessly, ignoring the cries of his daughter behind him.

While I was angry, I couldn't help but feel hurt and pity in my heart.

The little girl back then has grown up. How hard it must have been during this period!

"yes."

Alan also agreed with Jiang Li's words. Relief appeared on his good-looking face, "But I also thank him."

"If it weren't for him, I wouldn't have been able to leave that home full of darkness, nor would I have been able to live a life without worries about food and clothing in the flowery building."

"So you said, why should I leave?"

"..."

Jiang Li was speechless. It was really not easy to grow up optimistically after experiencing something like that. And he was just a stranger he had just met. He didn't even understand the feeling in his heart. What qualifications did he have?

Ask her?

"I see."

Jiang Li could only say this, then took a deep breath and turned around resolutely.

Not long after the person left, a cold figure walked out of the shadows on the second floor.

"You should go with him."

Alan was stunned and asked: "Why?"

"He is interested in you, and you don't have feelings for him, right?"

"He is not like a father. As long as you are willing to speak, he will definitely take you out of here."

The woman in blue said in a soft voice. She was so cold, but she was so gentle at this moment.

A sudden realization appeared in Alan's eyes. He turned around and smiled at the woman in blue, "It's just a feeling. He is the young city lord and will become the lord of the city in the future. How can I be worthy of standing next to him?"

"He deserves better."

"And if I leave, what will you do?"

There was a trace of pity in the eyes of the woman in blue, and her voice became softer, "Silly girl."

Alan smiled and retorted, "Silly sister."

"We are all stupid."

…

The next day.

Tonglai Inn.

According to the original plan, Su Chen and the others would stay in Huacheng for another day, but since returning from Huacheng last night, Jiang Li seemed to be a different person, and actually offered to leave Huacheng tomorrow.

Su Chen noticed some clues, but didn't think much about it. Anyway, there would be nothing wrong if he continued to stay, so there was no harm in setting off first.

As he rode out of the city gate, Su Chen seemed to feel something. He looked back on the horse and across the distance, he saw two handsome figures standing on the city wall.

One of them turned out to be Li Yutong.

Seeing Su Chen looking at her, Li Yutong smiled and nodded gently. The conversation last night made her know that women can be just as good as men. She decided to use her own strength to break free from the confinement of Huamanlou.

Su Chen nodded as a response.

His eyes shifted and he looked at the person on the side, who turned out to be Alan. He saw that Alan's eyes had been fixed on Jiang Li and never moved away.

Looking at the two of them, Su Chen suddenly realized.

"Don't you look back?"

Jiang Li stiffened and shook his head, "No, we won't see you again anyway."

Su Chen said oh, with a bit of joking in his eyes, "Won't we see each other again?" He actually felt that they would inevitably meet each other in the future.

On the tower, Alan saw what Su Chen said to Jiang Li, but the latter shook his head, and his heart suddenly throbbed. Did he see the wrong person after all?

She knew that the person was leaving, so she came here to see him off. She also knew that they would not meet again in the future, and she just wanted to see him again.

Who would have thought that he wouldn't even look at himself.

Are all men so heartless?

Just when the tears were gathering and about to burst, she suddenly saw the figure on the horse, raising his hand and waving it fiercely.

At this moment, her tears fell uncontrollably. The difference was her mood.

The flower of hope that blooms in despair is even more precious.

Su Chen looked at the raised hands and smiled silently.

…

"Go straight ahead and you will reach Yuncheng."

On the vast plain, Su Chen and the two stopped at a three-way intersection and briefly identified the direction. Jiang Li pointed to the fork in front on the left, "We can get there before dark."

Su Chen nodded, "Let's go."

At this moment, the sound of rapid horse hooves came from the fork in front of the road on the right, from far to near, and within a few breaths, they arrived in front of Su Chen.
