Chapter 2948: An Individual’s Strength Was Insignificant in the Face of a Nation’s Power

Stepping onto solid ground, Ning Shu still felt like the world was spinning below her feet. She then went to find Yi Xiaodong.

It had been quite some time, so she didn’t know how he was doing.

Ning Shu was deeply worried that Yi Xiaodong might have been found by those people.

The Ou family and the Min family might not have that much power, but the Mu family… they had military connections.

An individual’s strength was insignificant in the face of a nation’s power.

It was like an ant trying to shake a tree.

She had heard that Mu Yeyao had been sent to the military for intense training.

Ning Shu knew she couldn’t avoid their radar or outmaneuver an entire military to find Mu Yeyao.

However, if she couldn’t get to Mu Yeyao, she couldn’t proceed with her next steps.

After getting off the boat, she still had to take a bus.

When she arrived at the Daoist temple, she saw Yi Xiaodong’s youthful face and let out a long sigh of relief.

Yi Xiaodong’s eyes lit up when he saw Ning Shu, but then he looked aggrieved and said, “Big Sis, why were you gone for so long this time?”

Ning Shu smiled and said, “Big Sis has completed her tasks this time. Now we can start a new life.”

“We’re going to live somewhere new,” Ning Shu said.

“Where are we going?” Yi Xiaodong asked.

“Abroad.”

“Where is that?”

Suddenly, Ning Shu realized a problem. If they really went abroad, Yi Xiaodong might face a language barrier. Given Yi Xiaodong’s intelligence, learning a new language would be very difficult.

Ning Shu smacked her head. How had she not thought of this before?

“Xiaodong, where do you think we should go? Do you like it here?” Ning Shu asked.

“If you like it here, we can stay.”

“Wherever you go, I’ll go, as long as I’m with you. Let’s go abroad!” Yi Xiaodong said innocently.

Ning Shu sighed and decided to stay at the Daoist temple for a few days.

Yi Xiaodong’s days at the temple were very peaceful and quiet.

He had plenty of time to paint, and the monks would bring him food when it was mealtime.

No one bullied Yi Xiaodong here.

Given Yi Xiaodong’s situation, having less contact with others was probably for the best.

He was immersed in his own world, and in his world, there was only Yi Xiaotong.

Ning Shu thought it over for several days and eventually decided to take Yi Xiaodong somewhere new.

Starting over abroad seemed like the best option.

In their home country, Ning Shu didn’t feel safe.

Even if they were going abroad, they couldn’t go to Country E, since both Min Haochu and Mu Yeyao had incidents there. If she went to that country, it would surely raise suspicion. RAnOBES

So, they’d go somewhere else.

Once she made up her mind, Ning Shu felt less worried.

When Yi Xiaodong was about to leave the temple, he was reluctant to go, taking forever to shift a single step.

He even had tears in his eyes as he looked at the head monk.

Ning Shu set down her bag and asked Yi Xiaodong, “Are you really reluctant to leave?”

“No,” Yi Xiaodong shook his head.

Liar.

Ning Shu gave a long exhale, then smiled, “In that case, we won’t leave. How about we stay and live here?”

“Really?” Yi Xiaodong’s eyes lit up, looking like a puppy begging for a treat.
