Monkey Qiu packed his bags; his wife and children had already taken the foreign carriage ahead of him.
The task Duan Shaoxia had entrusted to him was one he could never possibly complete. She wanted to give Zhang Huaiyi an identity and make him a member of the Lu Family. She had even tasked Monkey Qiu with managing this affair. After much consideration, Monkey Qiu felt that leaving the Lu Family was the wisest choice.
Monkey Qiu had just carried his suitcase downstairs when Duan Shaoxia rushed out and knelt directly before him.
Monkey Qiu tried to pull Duan Shaoxia up, but she stubbornly refused to rise.
"Zhiheng, you cannot leave."
Qiu Zhiheng knelt before Duan Shaoxia as well. "Lady, I must go."
"Zhiheng, if you insist on leaving, then I, your sister-in-law, will kneel here and not get up."
"Lady, if you don't let me go, I will leave on my knees."
Neither could persuade the other.
Qiu Zhiheng was a respectable man; he did not want things to end up like this.
