The one who gave me light now lies asleep beneath the earth.
I first met Shen Qingchuan in a small village in the north. He was like a star far beyond my reach, always distant from me. I thought we would never have anything to do with each other in this lifetime, until I gave him that hair clip.
The hair clip was cheap, so much so that it didn't seem worthy of him.
But he kept it safe until we left that place and I was no longer anyone's prisoner.
...I always thought everything would get better, until the paper that represented everything fell into my hands.
It was the end of it all.
