Luo Cheng really didn’t want to stay in the capital for long.

If not for the fact that this matter was important and involved the commoners of the two countries, Luo Cheng wouldn’t have returned to the capital.

Now that the national treasure of Zhu Lan Kingdom had been returned and his predicament had been resolved, it was time to leave.

Luo Cheng had a feeling that if he didn’t leave tonight, he wouldn’t be able to.

Luo Han was stunned when he heard Luo Cheng’s words. “Then I’ll go with you! How do you plan to go back this time?”

“Let’s return through the deep mountain route! Now, I keep feeling that the deep mountains are safer than outside!” Luo Cheng sneered.

Luo Han trusted Luo Cheng’s instincts, so he nodded.

“Alright, let’s go prepare now!”

“Don’t worry, I’ve already asked Gan Xing to make preparations, including your share! When night falls, we’ll leave in the carriage. When we reach the foot of the mountain, we’ll get out of the carriage and go up the mountain!” Luo Cheng said confidently, as if he had expected Luo Han to follow him.

“You’re even prepared for this? Were you planning to take me with you?” Luo Han asked, glaring at Luo Cheng.

“That’s right. Previously, we left separately to confuse the enemy. If you go back alone now, those people might vent their anger on you!” Luo Cheng looked at Luo Han and reached out to wrap his arms around his neck. “We’re buddies after all. I can’t watch you get injured! Why don’t you follow me to the deep mountains for a few days?!”

Luo Han glanced at Luo Cheng and lifted his arm.

“At least you have a conscience!”

After that, the two of them continued to eat and drink.

Because they had to move at night, the two of them went to sleep after eating and drinking.

When the moon rose, a carriage was already parked outside.

Luo Cheng, Luo Han, Zi Zheng, and Zi Yang got into the carriage with some luggage.

Soon, the carriage headed out of town and towards the forest not far away.

By the time they reached the foot of the mountain, four hours had pa.s.sed.

Without resting, the four of them walked up the mountain in the moonlight. After walking for an unknown period of time, Luo Cheng led a group of people into a cave.

“Alright, we’re finally here. We can sleep in peace now. We’ll travel when we wake up tomorrow!” After Luo Cheng lit the firewood in the cave, he found a place to sit down.

Luo Han looked around the cave carefully and realized that it had been tidied up. He asked in surprise, “You prepared this place long ago?”

“That’s right! We found this cave here before leaving the mountain in case of emergencies. Who would have thought that it would really be useful?!” Zi Zheng replied.

When Luo Han heard this, he sat down and chose a place to lie down.

After running around for a few hours, everyone was a little tired.

Because Luo Cheng had slept already, he suggested that he be on night guard first and let the others rest.

Luo Han didn’t stand on ceremony and lay down to sleep.

However, after lying down, Luo Han didn’t feel sleepy. He simply sat up.

As soon as he got up, Luo Han realized that Luo Cheng wasn’t in the cave.

So Luo Han stood up quietly and walked out of the cave.

Luo Cheng was sitting on a rock outside the cave and staring at the darkness at the foot of the mountain.

“What are you looking at here? It’s dark down there. What’s there to see?!” Luo Han said softly as he sat beside Luo Cheng.

Luo Cheng didn’t turn when he heard Luo Han’s voice. He continued to look down.

“I’ve never looked at the night scenary in the capital so carefully since I was young. In my memory, those nights in the capital were cold. I’ve never slept soundly. Even if I slept, I had nightmares!”

Luo Han’s heart ached when he heard Luo Cheng’s words.

“You remember those nights?”

“Of course I remember! I remembered them in the past, I remember them now, and will remember them in the future. It’s precisely because I remember the coldness of those nights that I cherish the warmth I have now!” Luo Cheng said with emotion.

“My grandfather and father used to be very worried about you! If a person doesn’t have any warm memories, wouldn’t it be too pitiful to live all alone in this world?! Now that I think about it, my grandfather and father were overthinking! The heavens are fair. If you lose something, they will use other things to fill your vacancy!” Luo Han thought of something and said.

“Luo Cheng, do you know? You’ve really changed a lot! I don’t know how others feel, but I feel that you’ve changed a lot. The current you can at least be considered a person! In the past, you were just a wisp of a soul floating like duckweed without a root.”

When Luo Cheng heard Luo Han’s words, he smiled slightly.

“Floating duckvveed will have roots, and so will I!”

“What are you going to tell Li Xiaoran? I’m talking about your background!” Luo Han looked at Luo Cheng and reminded him worriedly.

“I actually planned to tell her everything previously, but something happened later and I never found a chance. When I go back this time, I’ll make things clear to her. At least, I can’t let her marry me without knowing my true background! The person I want to marry should know everything about me!” Luo Cheng said truthfully.

“Are you sure Li Xiaoran can accept all this?” Luo Han asked.

“If she can’t accept it, then no one can!” With that, Luo Cheng stood up and pointed in the direction of the capital. “From the time I was born to the time I grew up, this place has chiseled a big hole in my body, making my heart ache while becoming more and more empty.”

With that, Luo Cheng turned around and faced the Sichuan direction. Then, he smiled and said, “I unintentionally married someone in that place. She was the one who filled the hole in my heart bit by bit and made my heart start to grow again!”

With that, Luo Cheng looked around at the darkness.

“I was born in the dark, sprouted in the dark, and grew up in the dark, but when I bloomed, I encountered sunlight. The rest of my life should be spent in the sunlight! Luo Han, if possible, I don’t want to come here anymore!” With that, Luo Cheng walked into the cave.

“Since you can’t sleep, keep watch!” A calm voice sounded from the cave.

Luo Han smiled as he looked down at the darkness. Then he laughed.

“The capital that others yearn for, dream of, and allow countless people to soar is actually despised by you!”
