Quick Transmigration: Playing the Role of a Devoted Tool

Not long after Ji Fan left, the tightly closed door opened, and Yuna was standing in the doorway at some point. Qi Ran turned around and saw her, and she must have felt bad too.

"It's not too late to say goodbye now."

"No need." Yuna shook her head, feeling sad but understanding. "He's grown up and has his own path to walk. I can't protect him forever."

Qi Ran watched as Yuna turned and went to the kitchen. A moment later, smoke began to rise from the kitchen.

Qi Ran walked to the kitchen door, where Yuna was making tea with hot water.

"You're leaving soon too, what day?" Yuna put the tea cake into the teapot and simply added some hot water to brew it.

She wasn't particular about drinking tea.

Qi Ran came over to help, cleaned the tea set, and placed it on a tray.

"tomorrow."

Yuna paused while pouring tea, nearly burning her hand, but quickly felt relieved.

"Are you going to see Madam Chu?"

"No."

Qi Ran shook his head. He had no intention of seeking refuge with Madam Chu, nor did he intend to return to the Ji family.

Even if he went to Madam Chu's place, he might not be able to help much.

Yuna took the tea to the bedroom and then brought out a plate of pastries. The pastries were made with lotus flowers, and they were fragrant, crispy, and tender, with a hint of honey.

Qi Ran came in and sat down, took the tea that Yuna handed her, took a sip, and then put it down.

"What are your plans for the future?" Qi Ran asked.

"What plans do I have? I'll just stay here and make a living for now. I'll open a shop and start a business when I'm settled down."

Yuna took a small sip of her tea, then picked up a pastry from a tea tray. She had bought the pastry from outside; the master chef there was very skilled, but unfortunately, he was too old to open the shop often, so you had to queue up to get a taste.

"I brought quite a lot of money from the Ji family. I had planned to start a business before, but I couldn't do it properly in Zhongdu. Now that I'm in Wangdu, it's a good fit."

Qi Ran leaned back in her chair, stretched her limbs, picked up a book that was casually placed on the edge of the table, and flipped through it in her palm.

Seeing this, Yuna was a little embarrassed, "They're all... just some storybooks."

"Madam has a wide range of interests." Qi Ran glanced at it and smiled.

"Hey, you're calling me 'Madam' again."

"After all, you are leaving. Please take good care of yourself, Madam."

Yuna was puzzled when she heard this. "Qi Ran, can't you stay? I don't lack money anyway, and you don't lack anything with Madam Chu. There's chaos outside right now, and there's no safe place."

"Thank you for your kindness, Madam, but I still plan to go for a walk."

"If you need anything, remember to write to me or send a telegram. I probably won't move much; this is where I usually live."

Yuna was still a little worried, so she opened her secret stash, took out some money, and gave it to Qi Ran.

"Take these; it's better than having nothing."

"No need, Madam. You can keep this money for the young master."

"What does he need? He's already joined the army, who knows when he'll be back." Yuna pretended to be angry. "Here, take it."

"Really, no need," Qi Ran still refused.

Even if you give him the money, he won't need it, since he's just a downline and not actually going anywhere else.

The next morning, Qi Ran got up very early.

Before dawn, the entire sky was a hazy blue, a color not visible at sunset, and only visible in the early morning when one wakes up.

Sparrows chirped as they flew across the yard and perched on a branch outside the kitchen.

Qi Ran carried firewood to the kitchen, cooked porridge in a pot, and heated up a pot of steamed buns.

Once Yuna gets up, there's no need to cook.

Qi Ran clapped her hands, washed them, dried them, and dusted off the flour from the corner of her clothes.

He went back to his room and packed a few things, but there wasn't much to pack, just a set of clothes.

Qi Ran took one last look at the house, locked the door, and turned around in surprise to find Yuna already sitting on the bench by the main room.

Perhaps they were already sitting here from the beginning, but Qi Ran didn't notice when she was packing her things.

"lady."

"Won't you have breakfast together?"

"I've already eaten. I've left some rice in the pot. Please have some more, Madam. I'll take my leave now."

"Um."

This time, Yuna didn't stand at the door, but instead escorted the person outside.

Outside the house was a wide road, and the morning mist made the bluestone slabs appear dark.

The water droplets from the eaves of the neighbor's house dripped onto the stone slab, like the light and rhythmic footsteps of someone.

Yuna felt a surge of inexplicable disappointment.

She returned to the courtyard, ate the steamed buns and pumpkin porridge from the pot, and sat alone on the long plank under the eaves, contemplating the future.

Her son was gone, and so was Steward Qi, but her life had to go on.

........................

Later, the Great Yan Kingdom experienced 50 years of turmoil before finally being pacified with the support of the third generation of the Chu family.

At that time, the one who inherited the throne was Chu Nanxing's daughter.

The Chu family unified the world and established the first and most unique dynasty.

Imperial system, modern civilized society.

........................

"Alright, students, that's all for tonight's history class. After evening self-study, remember to get some rest and go to bed early, because tomorrow is a crucial exam."

The students below the stage wailed in despair.

"The Great Yan Kingdom has a history of six thousand years, who can remember that...?"

"Yes, if you ask me, Your Majesty should change this course. It's such a hassle to have an exam every year."

The teacher emphasized, tapping the blackboard, "What are you all complaining about? If you don't want to fail, pay attention! I heard His Majesty will be visiting our school this year, so don't embarrass the school!"

Another cheer erupted in the classroom.

After class, Yuna was about to go to the school gate to buy some things when her roommate asked her if she wanted to go to the supermarket.

"Is it still open at this hour?"

"Not yet, the new one closes at 10 pm." Her roommate pulled her along, "Come on, let's go buy some food. I'm telling you, the durians at this supermarket are super cheap."

"No, you're going to eat in the dorm? People will talk about you later."

"Let's eat outside first and then go in, hehe!"

Across from their school is an ancient city, brightly lit every night, and attracting many tourists during holidays.

My roommate doesn't quite understand why their school was built in such a crowded place.

The Great Yan Kingdom is a rather unique country. Although its civilization has entered the modern era, it still operates under an imperial system.

Modern civilization has been passed down through three generations of emperors.

The current emperor is an empress, a descendant of the Chu family of unknown generation.

Yuna glanced back and saw that familiar courtyard nestled in the brightly lit ancient city.

Yuna sometimes wondered if it was all a dream.

The two quickly arrived at the supermarket entrance. There were many office workers getting off work around this time, and the supermarket was a bit crowded.

The two quickly bought the items, without wasting much time.
