Dinner was a lively affair. Sun Jiaming, Li Zhi, and Dingzi drank quite a bit with Lin Shan.
They drank heartily and were in high spirits, talking and drinking for nearly two hours before the party finally wound down.
After seeing Lin Shan off, Chen Fengjiao couldn't stop crying. Lin Sui'er watched Gu'er. Their group had previously ganged up on their aunt's family, but now that they were gone, her dislike for Gu'er resurfaced.
Gu'er stayed with Chen Fengjiao for a little longer. 'She must be feeling awful,' Gu'er thought, so she comforted her for a while and promised she would visit often.
Soon, Gu'er, Sun Jiaming, and the others left as well. Li Zhi gave them a ride, and they all made a plan: Gu'er and Sun Jiaming would take Zheng Zhongshan for a medical check-up, while Li Zhi and Dingzi would find someone to make contact with Zheng Daniu's village.
