Chapter 418: Chapter 419: Never Will
"Get lost!" Moses shoved Qian Xueying away and stood up abruptly, "I won’t lose her, never!"
He roared like a wild beast gone mad, his eyes bloodshot.
Qian Xueying was pushed so hard she stumbled backward, falling from the chair onto the bar floor, her glass slipping from her hand and shattering into a mess.
The patrons in the bar all turned their puzzled gazes toward the noise.
"Sir!"
The assistant gently reminded.
Moses suppressed his anger, and with a grand gesture, he downed the drink in his glass, then rose and walked toward the exit.
"Take her home!"
On the ground, Qian Xueying, half-squinting, watched his retreating figure through strands of her hair and broke into laughter once again.
"Ha... home? I don’t have a home... My home... has long been gone..."
Whatever she said, Moses didn’t hear, in fact, he didn’t even attempt to listen.
After leaving the bar and settling back into the backseat of the car, he instinctively reached into his pocket, fingertips lightly dancing over the one US Dollar coin inside.
The driver waited for a moment, but hearing no command, he asked in a low voice.
"Sir, where to?"
The fingers meddling with the coin in his pocket stilled, and Moses slowly exhaled an address.
"Duke Residence."
The car turned and headed toward the Duke Residence. As they approached the main entrance and saw no sign from him to stop, the driver had no choice but to veer right and drove around the Duke Residence.
As the car reached the rear part of the Duke Residence, the silent Moses in the backseat finally spoke.
"Stop here."
The driver stepped on the brake, and before he could get out to open the door for Moses, the man had already pushed it open himself.
"Don’t follow me!"
He left the command hanging as he slammed the car door shut and walked away, the driver watching him through the rearview mirror for a moment before slowly pressing on the gas pedal.
Crossing the street, Moses stopped by the fence at the roadside.
Inside the fence lay the Duke Residence’s backyard. It offered a view of the stately, vintage, yet still opulent main building with a lit bedroom on the third floor.

The next day, dawn arrived as scheduled.
Children recover quickly. After a day of rest, Gan Tang’s body had nearly returned to normal. She got up early, had a hearty breakfast, and immediately after, the little youngster slid off the chair, letting go of the utensils.
The nurse and the servants watched her leave the dining room, rushing to follow.
"Young Master, where are you going?"
"I’m going to see Xiaofeng," the youngster said while stepping down the stairs.
Always restless, having been cooped up in the room for two whole days, she had grown unbearably bored.
With the doctor yet to make his visit, she was eager to seize the chance to go out and get some fresh air.
"Be careful!" the servants hurried after her.
"Yes, Young Master, with your current condition, you shouldn’t be riding horses," the nurse called out, following as well.
"I’m just going to look at it," the youngster frowned with slight annoyance, "stop following me, women are such a nuisance."
The maidservant and nurse exchanged a look, their faces a mix of amusement and incredulity.
In front of the stables, a groom was leading Xiaofeng out. A fine horse like this required daily exercise; even if not for riding, it was necessary to keep the horse moving regularly to maintain muscle vitality.
Knowing the child’s affection for the horse, Huangfu Jue had already arranged for Xiaofeng to be brought over as well.
Although the space at the Duke Residence wasn’t as expansive as a manor, the grassy area in the backyard was more than enough for the youngster to take the horse out for a stroll.
