“Zhou An’an, if something’s bothering you, ask me. Don’t keep it bottled up. I’ll always give you an answer.”
“Zhou An’an, you should say it when you like someone, too.”
“Zhou An’an, may you live a long life, filled with happiness and good health.
“Our unresolved attachment from a past life kept us from forgetting the one we loved. So we were reborn, carrying our birthmarks, to meet again. That means someone you love very, very much, who loves you just as much, is waiting to meet you in this life!”
“Puppies love their owners~”
“Ningning, my leg hurts.”
“Ningning, didn’t you say I should ask when something’s wrong instead of bottling it up, and that you’d always give me an answer? Why did you stop talking, Ningning? Do I ask too many questions? Then I’ll ask just one: does it hurt?”
“So we met hundreds, even thousands of years ago.”
“She was what Zhou Qian’an had begged for on his knees, seeking out every god and Buddha beneath the heavens and across the Myriad Worlds. He begged for a perfect ending, for them to stay together, but in the end, she fell just before reaching happiness. It turned out that even the gods’ compassion could not overcome fate. He begged with all his heart, but in the end, everything came to naught.”
“They became the ones she left behind.”
“My soul recognized you before my body did.”
“Ningning, that day at the Flower Festival, I said I regretted coming to see the little stiff. I was lying. I’ve never regretted coming to see the little stiff. So what I mean is, Ningning, I’ve never regretted meeting you. You couldn’t stay with Zhou Qian’an in this life, so in the next, I won’t ask you to be mine, either. You and the little stiff should be happy together in your next life. Can I call dibs on the life after that?”
Happy ending! It’s not a happy ending! Every one of the author’s books flops! Read without worry!
