For a moment, no one spoke.
Li Manman still stood there, pale as paper and Fu Fong's face looked ugly.
The head guard finally waved his hand.
"That is enough," he said as he looked around the yard.
"Everyone, get ready. We leave in five minutes."
The order broke the silence.
People immediately started moving.
Some picked up their bundles. Others hurried back to their carts. The crowd slowly scattered and returned to their own business.
The noisy yard quickly became busy again.
Fu Fong suddenly grabbed Li Manman's arm.
"Come," he said coldly.
His grip was rough as he dragged her toward the Fu family.
Li Manman stumbled but followed him without a word.
Aunt Fu quickly went after them, still talking excitedly.
Grandma Fu followed too, muttering under her breath.
I watched them leave and slowly let out a long breath.
"Well…" I said quietly.
I couldn't help smiling.
That drama had finally ended.
Not far away, Bai Ming stood with her two children.
