Chapter 284 Leaving Yueyin Country

After Ye Chen left, Lan Xi and Xiao Chuhan also decided to leave Yueyin Country. Before Lan Xi left, she met Yue Li whom she had not seen for a long time. Lan Xi came to where Yue Li lived and met Yue Li whom she had not seen for a long time. Yue Li was sitting on a stone bench in front of the window, holding an ancient book in her hand. The moonlight sprinkled on her peaceful face, adding a bit of softness to her.

Lan Xi smiled and walked over gently. She was holding an exquisite food box in her hand. It was the cakes that Lan Xi made for Yue Li. Lan Xi placed the food box on the stone table, opened the lid, and revealed the cakes neatly arranged inside: "This is the cake I made especially for you. Try it. How does it taste?"

Yue Li raised her head, a hint of surprise flashed in her eyes. She reached out and picked up a piece of cake and took a bite. The unique texture and sweet taste instantly spread in her mouth, making Yue Li smile with satisfaction: "This cake is delicious! Sister You'er, your cooking skills are getting better and better."

Lan Xi looked at Yue Li's satisfied expression and felt a little relieved. She sat beside Yue Li and gently held her hand: "Li Er, I will leave tomorrow."

Yue Li heard this and a trace of disappointment flashed in her eyes. She lowered her head and choked up a little: "You are leaving so soon... I haven't thanked you properly yet."

Lan Xi shook her head and smiled gently: "Thank me for what?"

"If you hadn't blocked that poisonous sword for my mother, she would have been the one who got hurt."

"I promised you that I would protect your mother from her misfortune. Now everything has returned to its former peace, and I am standing in front of you in good health. Isn't this a good thing?"

Yue Li raised her head and looked into Lan Xi's eyes. "I know all this, but... I'm grown up now, and I want to go out and see the world instead of staying in this palace forever."

Lan Xi was slightly startled, then nodded: "I understand your intention. Li'er, your mother loves you very much, and everything she does is for your own good."

"I know everything you said."

Lan Xi reached out and gently touched her head: "Li'er, you are already a big child. From now on, no matter what you think, you can tell your mother. You need to communicate with each other, understand?"

Yue Li held Lan Xi's hand tightly, her eyes full of gratitude: "I understand, Sister Lan Xi, thank you. I will remember your words."

"Li'er, if you get tired in the future, you can always come back to Chu to find me."

After that day, Lan Xi and Xiao Chuhan began to pack their bags, preparing to embark on the journey back to Chu State and leave Yueyin State.

At the time of parting, Yueyin and Lier came to see them off. The four stood at the city gate, looking at each other, their eyes full of reluctance. Although Lanxi knew that this separation was only temporary, she still couldn't hide her inner sadness. Lanxi understood that life is a journey of continuous progress, and every separation is for a better reunion next time.

"You must take good care of yourselves. If you encounter any trouble or need help, you can always come to me."

Lan Xi held Yueyin and Lier's hands tightly and said, "Yueyin, Lier, you must come to Chu to find me when you have time."

"Okay, I will bring Li'er to visit you in Chu State in the future."

Yue Yin then looked at Xiao Chuhan who was beside Lan Xi and said, "You must take good care of Xi'er. If Xi'er is bullied, I will never let you go."

Xiao Chuhan whispered, "Don't worry, I will take good care of Xier and make her happy. If I bully Xier, you don't have to punish me, I won't forgive myself." Xiao Chuhan's eyes were firm and gentle, making people feel his deep love for Lan Xi.

Yue Yin nodded and said with relief: "That's good, I hope you have a safe journey."

Lan Xi and Xiao Chuhan boarded the carriage and left slowly. Yue Yin and Li Er stood there silently, watching them disappear into the distance. Lan Xi looked back at Yue Yin and Li Er, and although she was reluctant to leave, she was beginning to get to know them.

As the wheels rolled forward, Lan Xi leaned against the carriage, and her mood gradually calmed down. Lan Xi knew that this journey was over, and some people and some things would eventually be let go.

Sitting in the carriage, Xiao Chuhan held Lan Xi's hand tightly and said affectionately: "Xi'er, from today on, we must be together well. I will try my best to bring you happiness. No matter how many difficulties and obstacles there are ahead, as long as we walk hand in hand, we will be able to overcome them."

Lan Xi nodded slightly, smiled faintly, and responded: "Well, I believe you."
