“A-Zhi, you can feel guilty, and you can carry that guilt with you as you save more people. But don’t let guilt become your whole life.” Jiang Zhi lived his entire life consumed by guilt, spending it “making amends” for what he had done, until he died with that guilt still on his shoulders, at the hands of his close friend, Mo Xuzhen.
After killing his best friend with his own hands, Mo Xuzhen had nothing left. That winter was so bitter, the very air seemed steeped in misery. He made it through that terrible winter, but every winter that followed was bitter too.
