Going Home

Gu Qingjiu told her family she would be home later.

Qi Yuefeng and Gu Hong didn't understand why but had nothing to say about that.

Gu Qingjiu didn't inform them she would be back today.

Hence after she returned to Dayi City by herself, she first called Helian Niancheng to inform him she had arrived.

She then took a cab and headed home.

Her left arm was bandaged in gauze. Although it was an external injury, Gu Qingjiu had asked the doctor to put her arm in a cast and make it look like it resulted from a fall to align with the story she made up.

She couldn't move around freely with only one usable arm and even had to push a small suitcase around.

When she reached her apartment building, the friendly cab driver offered, "Miss, with your arm in this state, do you want me to help you carry your luggage upstairs?"
