After packing his things, Shen Ruo turned on his optical brain to check the starship flight back to Cross.

It would take him more than three hours to get to the starship port from here. After looking around, Shen Ruo bought a ticket for four hours later. If he left now, he could definitely catch up.

After booking the ticket, Shen Ruo rubbed his eyes, which were swollen and uncomfortable, but he had no intention of looking for a medical robot now.

Getting up from the bed, Shen Ruo pulled the suitcase. He planned to say goodbye to Mrs. Chu. After all, he had lived here for so long and had disturbed the Chu family. The old lady was an elder and had to say goodbye.

This kind of departure actually felt like running away, but Shen Ruo was really scared.

He couldn't remember those nightmares, not even a single one. Everything was forgotten, but the panic was always engraved in the deepest part of his heart. When he first woke up, he didn't even dare to touch Chu Xiao. That was A conditioned reflex fear. Even he himself didn't know why he was so afraid of Chu Xiao.

Pulling the suitcase, Shen Ruo planned to go out to say goodbye to Mrs. Chu, but before he could go out, there was a knock on the door.

Shen Ruo's hand holding the lever suddenly tightened.

"Master Shen, it's almost breakfast time, you need to check first."

It was the butler's voice, and Shen Ruo breathed a sigh of relief.

He didn't feel any hunger and just wanted to leave the Emperor Star as soon as possible.

So Shen Ruo opened the door, and outside were the butler and the medical robot.

The robot's blue eyes quickly scanned Shen Ruo's body, and the electronic mechanical sound sounded, saying that his injuries were not serious, but he was a little weak now, and it was recommended to rest in bed and take nutritional supplements.

When Shen Ruo heard what the robot said, he ignored it. He just looked at the housekeeper and said, "Butler, I want to go to the old lady and say goodbye to her. It's time for me to go back."

The housekeeper looked at Shen Ruo's pale face and red and swollen eyes, which were still bloodshot. His overall condition was too bad, and Shen Ruo's lips were white and dry and cracked, but he didn't seem to notice it. , or rather, don’t care at all.

Glancing at the suitcase he was pulling, the housekeeper sighed in his heart. He knew about Shen Ruo's fall down the stairs last night. In front of so many people, would a thin-skinned little person like him face him? Yes, that's normal.

"Then, Master Shen, I will take you to find the old lady."

The housekeeper can't make the decision in this matter and can only follow Shen Ruo's opinion. If the old lady agrees, then she can only send Shen Ruo back.

The old lady had already gotten up at this time. She lived on the second floor, while Chu Xiao, who was said to live on the third floor where Duke Chu lived, lived on the fourth floor.

Shen Ruo saw the old lady outside the room on the second floor.

"Old Madam, I've been disturbing the Chu family for too long." Shen Ruo said, but his sickly look would worry anyone who saw him.

Like the housekeeper, Mrs. Chu also thought that Shen Ruo was embarrassed to stay here because of his fall. She looked at Shen Ruo worriedly and said that he could wait until his body recovered before leaving.

But Shen Ruo was very determined. He said that he had already booked a ticket for today. After saying that, seeing the worried look on the kind old lady's face, he forced a smile and said that he was fine.

Mrs. Chu was usually very talkative, but she saw that Shen Ruo was determined to leave now. If she just let Shen Ruo go, no matter who knew that Shen Ruo went back so sickly with injuries, no matter what, She would only think that it was because of their poor hospitality, or even that they were not good to Shen Ruo, that made Shen Ruo want to go home in such a hurry.

So Mrs. Chu was also anxious, and Shen Ruo's situation was too bad, if something happened along the way...

Thinking like this, the old lady didn't want to let Shen Ruo go back even more. The Chu family's face was not a big deal. If Shen Ruoshang left before he recovered, he would have to take a two-day starship ride for a demi-human with a weak physique. It is very likely that he will become even weaker. If something happens on the way, it will be too late to say any regrets by then.

Seeing that the old lady was resolute, the housekeeper also advised Shen Ruo that he would definitely send someone to take him back when he recovered. The most important thing now was to take care of his health first.

Seeing that Shen Ruo was silent, the housekeeper and the old lady looked at each other helplessly, but they could only patiently persuade Shen Ruo.

He even carefully advised him that face was not as important as his body, meaning that Shen Ruo should not pay too much attention to the fact that he fell and lost face.

But Shen Ruo didn't understand what they meant, and was even a little confused. He just wanted to escape from here.

"In this case, Master Shen, it will only be three days. I will send someone to take you back in three days. If you leave today, your family will be worried when they see you like this when you get home."

The housekeeper pondered for a moment and said, and sure enough, it made the family worry that this sentence had an effect, and Shen Ruo became obviously hesitant.

The old lady did not stop the housekeeper, which was fine. Seeing that Shen Ruo was a little shaken, she spoke up and agreed to the housekeeper's words, saying that she would send him home in three days.

The pale Shen Ruo nodded. He smiled and said thank you to Mrs. Chu, but the sadness in his smile made the soft-hearted old man feel a little uncomfortable. He didn't know what was wrong with Shen Ruo.

Perhaps because she was too sensitive, Madam Chu didn't know what Shen Ruo went through when she was in a coma, and always thought that he was like this because of the fall.

Shen Ruo fell down at Chu's house. No matter what, they had to let Shen Ruo recuperate here before leaving.

This matter could only be determined helplessly like this. Shen Ruo was afraid that he would go back like this and worry his second uncle and second aunt.

And he has already promised the old lady. He can see that the old lady cares about him. If he leaves without caring about anything, it will make it difficult for the old lady.

Walking downstairs with the housekeeper, Shen Ruo hesitated, but still spoke to the housekeeper and asked him not to tell Chu Xiao that he was leaving.

Although Shen Ruo didn't tell him the reason, his pleading eyes and pale face made him look unattractive. The housekeeper had become familiar with him in the past month, so he finally relented and agreed to Shen Ruo.

All the anxiety and worries were causing trouble, making it almost impossible for Shen Ruo to sort out his thoughts. He only knew that he had to leave, and because of the book that appeared inexplicably in his mind, and the books that he had never seen before, but appeared in his mind. People give him a fear of unknown forces.

Shen Ruo was alone in the room, lying on the bed sluggishly, his mind confused.

Every time he thought of those things, he felt as if everyone's fate had already been written, and they only followed that script, and he was just the most inconspicuous cannon fodder.

Under that unknown power, he has no room for resistance at all. He will only take the path he should take over time, and the final outcome has a high probability of death.

The threat of death loomed in Shen Ruo's mind and could not dissipate for a long time.

He didn't know why he chose to stay in Emperor Star and go and hook up with others.

Is it for wealth and enjoyment

When Shen Ruo thought about this, he almost blamed "himself" for why he wanted to covet this.

Drowsily, Shen Ruo didn't know that he had already started to have a fever. He was so burned that he thought wildly, and for a moment, Chu Xiao appeared in front of him.

The young man's handsome face was gloomy and cold, looking straight at him like that, completely different from the gentle and considerate look he had in the past.

Shen Ruo was so frightened that he almost didn't know how to breathe. His face was full of panic and he couldn't even make a sound. He finally thought that he didn't want any wealth or enjoyment, so he wouldn't die.

His consciousness fell into darkness, and Shen Ruo didn't wake up until the afternoon.

There was no Chu Xiao in the room. He was still lying on the bed. Maybe he was dreaming after falling asleep. Chu Xiao did not appear in his room.

In just three days, Shen Ruo felt that the days passed like years. He had never waited for time to go faster like this.

For the past three days, he has been hiding in his room, not even going out to eat, let alone going to see Chu Xiao.

It happened to be the reason why the medical robot suggested that he stay in bed, otherwise Shen Ruo would not be able to escape.

As for whether this would be disrespectful to the Chu family and make the old lady feel bad about him, Shen Ruo couldn't care anymore. He didn't dare to see Chu Xiao at all.

Even though Chu Xiao had always behaved like a gentleman in front of him, Shen Ruo was still afraid that Chu Xiao would really turn out like in the book.

The daily meal is either brought in by the housekeeper or other servants. It is a nutritional recipe listed for him by the medical robot. The kitchen will follow the list and he will drink a pill every day to make him recover faster.

In the past three days, Shen Ruo has indeed recovered a lot. At least his fever has gone away and his headache is gone. However, because he thinks too much and thinks too hard, his face is still pale.

Finally, when it was time to leave, the suitcases Shen Ruo packed before were almost not messed up. He had been waiting to leave.

Early in the morning, Shen Ruo didn't even eat breakfast. Shen Ruo woke up at around four o'clock. Originally, the housekeeper had booked a starship ticket for him at noon, and a driver would take him there, but Shen Ruo couldn't wait any longer, so he gave himself Booked a starship ticket for the morning.

She quickly packed herself up. It was still dark outside, so Shen Ruo quietly went downstairs with her suitcase.

Yesterday evening, he asked the servant who brought him some flowers to bring him some flowers. After making a flower arrangement, he placed it in the room.

The old lady taught him flower arrangement before. Making a bouquet of flowers like this and giving it to the old lady before leaving was the only thing Shen Ruo could do.

Some distance away from the Duke's Mansion, there is a post that is guarded by people. In order to prevent illegal people from approaching the Duke's Mansion, Shen Ruo and Shen Ping were also questioned by people here when they first came here.

The guards knew Shen Ruo. Although they didn't know why he left so early, the detector set up in the hiding place detected that there was nothing suspicious on Shen Ruo. They had no right to restrict other people's personal freedom, so they let Shen Ruo leave.

Quickly walking to the platform, Shen Ruo raised his head and glanced at the dark sky in the early morning. He released the suitcase lever and breathed a sigh of relief.

He checked and found that the earliest public levitation train arriving at the platform near the Duke's Palace was at 4:57 in the morning. He looked at the time and saw that it was almost there.

When he saw the car approaching, Shen Ruo suddenly became nervous. He turned back and glanced in the direction of the Duke's Palace. Except for a few scattered lights, there was no other movement.

The entire mansion was sleeping quietly, it was too early now, only the cook who was preparing breakfast woke up one after another.

After Shen Ruo got in the car, he finally calmed down. There were not many people in the morning, and he was the only one in the car he got in.

After sitting down, Shen Ruo realized that it was a little cold. It was too early and the temperature was a bit low. He didn't wear a coat and his arms were cold.

The journey went smoothly. After the sun came out and it was bright, Shen Ruo arrived at the port.

Even in the morning, the port of Emperor Star was still crowded with people, and Shen Ruo lined up to refresh his mind.

When he stepped onto the starship connecting plate, he could finally breathe a sigh of relief.

Shen Ruo walked forward. All he had to do was go in and sit down in his seat. In eight or nine minutes, the starship would take off. Two days later, he would return to Cross Planet.

But before he could finish walking across the connecting board, an angry shout came from behind.

"Shen Ruo!"

Turning around suddenly, Shen Ruo saw the familiar person in the distance, but the gloomy expression made him feel extremely strange and scared.

Trying his best to control his anger, Chu Xiao saw Shen Ruo turning around, but his eyes were full of panic, and he immediately ran to the starship without any hesitation.

Chu Xiao, who was extremely angry, calmed down, with a cold expression on his face. Looking at Shen Ruo who was running away, he slightly raised his lips and sneered, then his face darkened again, his eyes full of frost. He had no idea about such an ignorant Asian. Patience.
