Not long after Li Jiayuan and Xiao Wei went to the United States, Xia Jing began preparing for her own journey to leave City A for America. She was determined not to stay here any longer; she found it utterly dull, with nothing to do every day but eat and sleep. Staying here meant she couldn't take care of her own child—what meaning was there in that? Better to go out and see the world, to start a new life!
When Xia Jing saw Zhang Zhentian enter her room, she said to him, "Husband, I'm planning to go away. If you're willing to come with me, then we'll go together. If not, I'll leave on my own first."
Zhang Zhentian thought Xia Jing was joking when he heard what she said, but seeing her serious expression, he realized she wasn't kidding. "Weren't you undecided about leaving before? Why have you suddenly decided to go now? Has something happened, or what? Our children aren't even a year old yet. If you leave like this, won't you miss them?"
