After dinner and a bit of chatting, it was almost eight o'clock when Mù Qiānxún was about to leave. Jin Shi said to Mù Qiānxún, "I'll take you home."
Mù Qiānxún quickly stood up.
"It's okay, Jin father, I can go back on my own."
"No, you're a girl all alone late at night, it's not safe. I'll take you home, I have something to talk to you about."
"...Okay!"
Then Jin Shi took on the responsibility of escorting Mù Qiānxún home.
On the way, Jin Shi said, "If you have time tomorrow, come find me at my company. I will arrange a lawyer for you and you guys can hand off."
"Okay."
Then the two of them chatted intermittently.
At the entrance of the villa, Jin Shi watched Mù Qiānxún go in before driving away.
Upon returning to the villa, she felt the emptiness of the room. Without Ou Zun's tall figure, her heart felt empty too.
She had never noticed how big the villa was before.
