Zhai Tingzhi would have died for Qi Xu.

Qi Xu was willing to live on for him, too.

Only years later did she realize it had all been a lie.

Their marriage fell apart. Zhai Tingzhi brought back his first love and drew a clear line between himself and Qi Xu:

“I only married you back then because I had no choice.”

“Could you please stop making me sick?”

He was mature and steady, refined and elegant, but no longer the boy he once was. He had become a stranger.

Heartbroken, Qi Xu turned around and spent a night tangled up with a handsome man.

Later

At a banquet hall.

Zhai Tingzhi saw her leaning against another man. Beneath the man’s open collar was a tiny kiss mark. His eyes reddened.

“Qiqi, you’re my wife.”

The young master raised an eyebrow and casually took Qi Xu’s hand. Their wedding rings stung Zhai Tingzhi’s eyes.

“Mr. Zhai must be getting on in years and forgetting things. My wife has only been married once.”

As they left, the young master even thoughtfully reminded him:

“If you’re forgetful, Mr. Zhai, you should drink more calming brain tonic.”

When Pei Daiye first arrived in Jianghai, he ran into a little crybaby.

She was delicate, but feisty.

At first, he tried to coax her with candy.

“Candy for tears. Ten candies for one tear. Stop crying, okay?”

Later, he offered himself instead.

“Princess Qi, please enjoy.”

And later still, she was crying again.

“Be good. I’ll be gentle.”

There was a lie behind the lie.

I stood at the beginning of the story, looking toward the ending where I was destined to die.

There is no return from where I’m going, my dear girl. I wish you...

A happy wedding.
