Zhao Chuchu stopped worrying about this issue.

Two days later, the Third Prince personally came to pick Xie Jun up.

Perhaps because they were connected by blood, Xie Jun naturally depended on the Third Prince. After getting permission from Zhao Chuchu and Xie Heng, he happily left with the Third Prince.

Chai Le naturally followed Xie Jun.

Chang Hong and Jixiang had been staying at the Ruyu Center recently. Xie Heng went to the academy during the day, so Zhao Chuchu suddenly felt that the house was empty with her all alone.

Jixiang was very capable. She could easily handle most of the matters in the Ruyu Center, so Zhao Chuchu did not need to go over at all.

Jixiang had probably gained a lot of self-assurance from her job. The current Jixiang was completely different from when Zhao Chuchu first met her. She now glowed with confidence.

Zhao Chuchu had not met Yuan Hui for a while.

She initially planned to invite Yuan Hui out for shopping. However, when she went to the Yuan residence, she found out that the latter had gone to the village.

“She left not long ago. Do you want me to get someone to send you there, too?” asked Mrs. Yuan.

Zhao Chuchu shook her head and replied, “It’s fine. I’m only here to pay her a visit. Since she is not home, I’ll take my leave first. I will come and visit Godmother next time.”

“Alright.” Mrs. Yuan did not persuade Zhao Chuchu to stay either. She knew that the latter was quite busy.

After Zhao Chuchu left the Yuan residence, she stood at the crossroad and stared at the lively capital. She was overwhelmed by emotions.

Who would have thought that she would arrive here from the post-apocalyptic world?

Even though this world lacked advanced technology and was inconvenient in many ways, it was safe. She did not need to worry about the existence of mutated plants and animals that would threaten humans.

Time flew by, and it was already fall now.

Zhao Chuchu had been staying in the capital for more than half a year.

It was almost the Mid-Autumn Festival, so Zhao Chuchu planned to make a trip back to Yuanjiang County.

She asked Xie Heng, “Da Lang, recently, the Gan clan sent us a letter and asked whether we will be back for the Mid-Autumn Festival. I was thinking that since we don’t have much to do here, we should go back and visit them. Will you have time to go back?”

Xie Heng said apologetically, “I still have other matters to attend to. I most likely will not be able to accompany you back. If you wish to go back, can you also bring Junjun back? I will accompany you back to Yuanjiang County after the New Year.”

“No worries. Then I will bring Junjun back with me. Do what you need to,” replied Zhao Chuchu. She did not mind it at all.

Although Xie Heng was very powerful in his previous life, reincarnation had a butterfly effect. Not everything would unfold as it did in his previous life.

Xie Heng needed to do many things and did not require her help, so Zhao Chuchu could understand.

She said, “However, you cannot be busy around New Year!”

“I will honor whatever I promised you.”

“Alright. ”

Xie Heng asked, “I know you are incredibly capable, but you must also look after yourself. When do you plan to leave?

“Maybe tomorrow.”

Zhao Chuchu actually missed Old Mrs. Gan and the others very much.

After all, the Gan clan were the first people to show her kindness.

When Xie Heng heard she was rushing off so soon, he wanted to help her pack.

Zhao Chuchu laughed and said, “You do not need to worry. I have already finished packing. Luckily, I have not packed for you, or I would have had to take your stuff out now.”

“I am sorry,” apologized Xie Heng. “I cannot keep you company.”

“It’s okay. I am not an unreasonable person,” said Zhao Chuchu. She did not blame him.

Xie Heng embraced Zhao Chuchu. Even though they had yet to be separated, he was already beginning to feel forlorn.

The next day, Xie Jun woke up early in the morning and was eager to return to Yuanjiang County.

Xie Heng sent the two of them out of the capital. He sighed as he watched the carriage disappear into the distance.

His heart felt empty when he thought of not being able to see Zhao Chuchu for some time.

Just when Xie Heng was about to return, he noticed a familiar carriage leaving the capital too..
