430 departure

"Ah Wen, we're leaving!" Sally threw herself into Shen Congwen's arms, her voice somewhat choked up, "Wait for my return!"

Shen Congwen gently stroked Sally's full head of hair, taking in the faint fragrance that wafted from it, his heart rising with waves of melancholy.

After kissing Sally's forehead lightly, Shen Congwen whispered into her ear, "I will wait for you to come back too! No matter what happens, I won't let anyone tear us apart!"

Sally's eyes brimmed with tears as she gazed at Shen Congwen with deep emotion, murmuring softly, "Ah Wen, remember to miss me..."

Lin Feng, standing behind them, watched the couple's affectionate display and couldn't help but say with a laugh, "What are you two doing? It's not like you're parting for life or death, do you need to be this dramatic?"

"Brother Feng, have a heart, will you? Who knows what might happen to Sasha on this trip? It's not much different from a life-or-death parting!" Shen Congwen replied discontentedly.
