With its arrival, even though no one said anything, they knew the time to say goodbye had come. Ye Xun had already left at some point, but Yang Qing didn't know when, because after a couple of cups in, a speed competition with Fang Wen and Ellie, and a few off-key songs, he had lost track of his surroundings. Though Ye Xun's silent disappearance wasn't a surprise as it went perfectly in line with the temperament.
Fang Wen was the next to leave along with administrator Mo Guang with the latter leaving to help Fang Wen familiarize herself with the post. Yang Qing would meet them later when the official from the Administration department arrived to formalize and complete the handover to Fang Wen.
Haishi, Bolin, Luo Meili, and Su Jinjing left an hour later after Meifeng made them repetitively promise to keep in touch with her and if they could, to visit her when they could. Finally, only Gu Xing and Yang Qing were left.
