Shang Yanwen ultimately embarked on the journey back to Korolya alone.
Of course, he wouldn't let Lu Shaoyu come along.
Just as he had said upon parting, they were not people from the same world.
He had resolved to dedicate his life to a great cause. There was no need for Lu Shaoyu to do the same; her life would be more splendid and leisurely. She shouldn't accompany him to that dark, backward place.
He knew Lu Shaoyu's intentions, but perhaps love was just a momentary impulse, how far could it endure?
Changing his hometown was his duty, he knew the road ahead was long and fraught with difficulties; he didn't even know how many years he would sacrifice for it. He shouldn't drag a fine young woman along.
His challenging path was even reflected in his journey home.
It took him two days just to get to the ground segment of the Flying Wing Star Starport using public transport; then, waiting in line to board the Starport and for a ship took another three days.
