After cooking dinner and feeding Yuan, Yu Rou said, "Even though you'd moved out of the house and everything, there's still about two days before you're officially disowned, so I plan on keeping it a secret until then. Who knows, maybe mother and father will even change their minds about disowning you."

"Okay. However, even if they change their mind, I have already decided to leave the family. After all, if one day I recover from this condition, I don't want them to believe that it was all due to their help. I want to prove to them and myself that I can survive even without them." Yuan said.

"If that's your decision, brother, I won't say anything else. I also believe that you'll one day make a full recovery," said Yu Rou.

"Anyways, it's getting late, so I'll head home tonight. I'll be back tomorrow, though." Yu Rou said.

"Okay. See you tomorrow."

After leaving Yuan's apartment, Yu Rou locked the door with the spare keys and quickly returned home.

Meanwhile, Meixiu stayed behind to take care of Yuan.

"Do you need anything, Young Master?" Meixiu asked him.

"Yes, I actually do… Meixiu, can you stop calling me Young Master? I am no longer part of the Yu Family, and there's no need to be so formal to me. Just call my Yu Tian, or even better, Yuan."

"..."

Meixiu did not immediately respond.

After a moment of silence, she suddenly asked him, "When do you plan on telling the Young Lady the truth?"
