"Leave," Xiao Song said, as if he had long known what Ran Yan was thinking, stopping Qing Luo's movements.
When Ge Lan left Chang'an, there had been no shadow of marriage, and no one thought it would happen so quickly. When the Ran Clan hurried to Chang'an, they had prepared to bring Ge Lan back. But the Gao family said Ge Lan was too old and disabled, and sending her to be a secondary wife might cause discontent among the Xiao Clan. The Ran Clan elders thought the same, so they selected a talented and beautiful maid from beside Lady Gao to accompany them instead, pushing aside the substitute maid Ran Pingyu originally prepared for Ran Yan. This person was none other than Qing Luo.
Upon hearing Xiao Song's words, Wan Lu immediately covered Ran Yan with the brocade quilt, got up, and prepared to leave after putting on her shoes and socks. Looking back to see that Qing Luo had not reacted, she tugged at her sleeve and said, "Let's go."
