   When it comes to hiding one's true feelings, it has to be my Ning Zaizai. Seriously, I cried so much for him. He's such a cheerful young man, yet he carried so much. After he learned the truth, my heart ached for him. He killed the person he respected most, hurt the person he loved most, and was powerless to redeem himself. Guilt overwhelmed him, yet he had to pretend to be nonchalant. He clearly wanted to interact happily and amicably with everyone, yearning to be understood and accepted, but he was always thinking of others, afraid of being too deeply entangled and hurting the hearts of everyone in this world after returning to his original world [crying]. The beginning was quite sweet, especially the part before Ake's sacrifice, but the later parts were really heartbreaking. The author adheres to the principle that double death equals a happy ending, but the author promises a sweet ending. It's a dual male lead, time-travel story, so let's wait for the sweetness together, lest the heartbreak enters unexpectedly 🌹~
