Dinner passed in silence as they both had their own thoughts. When they got into the car, Meng Xi'er whispered, "Let's stop by my place later."
"Okay."
Lu Yebai didn't say much, just responded and drove in the direction Meng Xi'er had indicated.
By the time they arrived at their destination, it was already afternoon.
The large villa, unattended, seemed desolate and empty.
In the midst of winter, the plants that seemed overgrown in the summer were now dead. The courtyard was strewn with the corpses of weeds, accompanied by the desolate winter wind, making the scene appear exceptionally bleak.
Lu Yebai was visiting this place for the first time in many years. The once quiet and refined villa now lay in ruin.
After Meng Xi'er went to prison and her parents dies in a car accident, it didn't take long for the Meng Family to clear out the villa completely, leaving only the foundation for her.
