That day, Dingyun, the most gentle and aloof immortal in the Celestial Realm, stopped Xuesu, an immortal from the paradise on Mount Buzhou, beside the Jade Pool. Casting aside his usual upright gentlemanly bearing, he pinned her beneath the window lattice and asked what was wrong, why she wanted to sever their marriage bond. She pressed her lips together, lowered her eyes, and turned her face away from him.
He was on the verge of falling apart.
“Xuxu, we’re engaged. If something’s wrong, tell me, hmm?”
At his words, a clear tear slid down Xuesu’s cheek. She swallowed, then softly refused: “I want to go home.”
Hearing her distant tone and feeling her push him away, the corners of Dingyun’s eyes reddened even more.
He thought they had all the time in the world, and that he could soothe her when she was upset. But the next time he saw her, her soul was already fading away.
Xuesu knew that Dingyun loved an immortal he could never have. She had known from the moment they met and fell for each other. But one day, she saw the way he looked at that immortal, and her heart still broke.
