Ruan Xiao Jiao, no matter what, did not want to return to the County Magistrate's house.
She was afraid that if she went back, she would never have the chance to come out again.
Money can be earned, but the freedom and happiness she longed for might be lost forever.
"Jiaojiao, I..." Mu Dade suddenly looked troubled, pitifully staring at Ruan Xiao Jiao.
"Da De, what's wrong? You can speak directly with me; there's no need for formality between us!" Ruan Xiao Jiao said.
Mu Dade, hearing this, decided to tell Ruan Xiao Jiao the truth.
Otherwise, if Ruan Xiao Jiao didn't go back to get the money, even if he left the county, he wouldn't be able to survive.
"The money is gone..." Mu Dade said.
"What?" Ruan Xiao Jiao froze.
"I said... the money I had saved before is all gone!" Mu Dade repeated, this time more clearly than before.
"Why?" Ruan Xiao Jiao asked.
