Mrs. Liu suddenly looked up at Gu Yuheng, "If you want to resign, I won't oppose it."
Gu Yuheng looked at her in surprise, "Really?"
Mrs. Liu nodded, "I originally thought that when the officials go to the capital at the end of the year for debriefing, you could just feign illness and stay home, and it wouldn't be noticed."
"But you're right, always being on edge like this isn't a solution."
"However, resigning is fine, but I have one request."
Gu Yuheng let out a huge sigh of relief, "Tell me."
Mrs. Liu said softly, "Just, my husband mustn't abandon us mother and son. Wherever you go, we go."
Gu Yuheng was startled, "This—"
"Why would Mrs. Liu say such a thing!"
Mrs. Liu looked at him plaintively, "A hundred days' grace for a day of marriage, husband, have you forgotten the affection we shared in those days?"
"Before you remembered those things, you called me Xiao Xiangxiang, and we just wished to be entwined day after day..."
