"Tell him what? We're divorced! An old man, still troubling a young girl like you? I'm missing his coat, am I?"
Lady Shen got up after saying these words, "I'll go see what the kitchen has cooked for you. Once you've eaten, I'll have someone escort you off the island. I'm not at ease with a girl leaving at this hour. What sickness does Officer have that it has you so anxious to return?"
"He has a fever, a high fever that's not going away. The remedy that helps his fever is only with me."
Lady Shen said, "It's just a high fever. If a grown man can't withstand a minor sickness and needs you to journey home exhausted, does that boy even care for you? If he doesn't care for you, forget him!"
"He does care for me. I made the decision to come back without telling him first. Granny, please don't misunderstand him."
