How Do I Know If She's Well

"Don't think too much, Mom. I just… just don't want to let Brother know why I left. I'm alone in Dali now. I know you'll be worried, so I called you first to tell you my location."

"How long are you planning to stay in Dali?" Mrs. Jiang asked.

"Not sure. I'll see what the environment's like first. If I like it, then I'll stay a bit longer. I just want to stay in a place far from the memories of the past two years and relax thoroughly," came the reply. "I've rented a short-term flat in Dali. It's cheaper than a hotel. Then I'll find a part-time job, enough to for me live on. I wish to try a casual and free-spirited lifestyle."

"Then take good care when you're alone outside, alright? Call me every day, okay? I won't tell your dad and brother."

"Alright." Jiang Yujie also knew that she couldn't be willful and go completely off-grid, making her family worry.

The best she could think of now was to let Mrs. Jiang rest her worries first.
