Love is as vast as the Milky Way, impossible to cross.

Do not appear in H City again after Chapter 169.

Liu Shiyin abruptly stopped in her tracks. She turned around and looked at Wang Qing's indifferent back, a surge of indescribable anger and sorrow welling up inside her.

She didn't understand why these people always manipulated other people's fates, and why they couldn't respect other people's choices and dignity.

But she also knew that she couldn't change anything now, and could only wait silently. She sat there, filled with anxiety and unease. She didn't know how her mother was doing, nor what would happen next.

Time ticked by, and Liu Shiyin's heart grew increasingly tense with each passing second. She kept glancing towards the door.

After a long wait, a man entered the coffee shop. He approached Wang Qing and whispered something to her.

"You can leave now. Remember, never show your face in H City again."

After Wang Qing finished speaking, she quickly walked out of the coffee shop.

Liu Shiyin followed closely behind and found that her mother had been arranged in a white car. She quickly got in and hugged her mother tightly. After the driver put Liu Shiyin's luggage in the white trunk, the white car slowly started and drove off into the unknown distance.

Liu Shiyin held her mother's hand tightly, silently praying that her future life would be peaceful and happy.

She knew that no matter how difficult the road ahead might be, she had to keep going, for her mother and for herself.

The car, like a weary river, flowed on for over a dozen endless hours. The night was deep, the stars sparse, and even the moon seemed to have hidden behind thick clouds, unwilling to witness this long and lonely journey.

Finally, the wheels slowly came to a stop, like a weary beast panting, announcing its end.

Liu Shiyin gently pushed open the car door, and a cool night breeze rushed in, carrying the earthy scent and faint fragrance of grass and trees unique to the town.

She looked up and saw a dim array of lights dotting the distance, like stars scattered across the earth.

"Where is this place?"

A strange sense of confusion welled up inside her.

The driver stood silently to the side, his face etched with exhaustion, yet a strange light flickered in his eyes.

He didn't speak, but silently pointed ahead, where Liu Shiyin's destination was—an unknown small town.

Liu Shiyin walked on the uneven cobblestone path, feeling the pulse of this unfamiliar town.

She walked past one closed shop after another, occasionally hearing the distant barking of dogs, breaking the silence of the night.

She was filled with doubt and unease, wondering why she had been sent to this remote place.

The nights in the small town seemed exceptionally long. Liu Shiyin pushed her mother in a stroller through the streets.

Finally, across the alley, they saw a guesthouse. The dim light shining through the windows gave them a warm and reassuring feeling.

A glimmer of hope welled up in Liu Shiyin's heart. She walked quickly over and pushed open the door of the guesthouse.

The lobby of the guesthouse was empty, with only a dilapidated table and a few chairs placed in the corner.

Liu Shiyin walked to the front desk and knocked on the table, trying to get attention. After a while, an elderly waiter came out from the back room, looking tired and surprised.

Are there any rooms available?

Liu Shiyin asked anxiously.

The waiter rubbed his eyes, glanced at them, and then nodded.

"There are two rooms available, but the conditions aren't great. If you'd like, I can book them for you."

Liu Shiyin was overjoyed and quickly nodded in agreement. She helped her mother upstairs and into a simple room.

The room contained only two small beds and a table, but in Liu Shiyin's eyes at this moment, it was a rare haven.
