Meng Su: "Gu Bai, I chased after you for 319 years. All I ever hoped for was to marry you. But in the 319th year, you rejected me, and you didn't even want the child I carried for you. Still, I couldn't give up hope. Later, on the day you married Song Sisi, surrounded by all that red, I sat alone at the head of the bed and thought: So it's true, fate is hard to come by. Only then did I understand what those storybooks meant by a rare and devoted lover. Isn't that ridiculous? I spent so many years at the Bridge of Hel, watching ordinary people get caught up in love and hate, and yet it took me over three hundred years to understand."
Lu Wugui: "Mengmeng, how would you like to marry me? I've well and truly earned the title of the Peach Blossom Prince now. You know the saying, 'Better to die beneath the peonies and enjoy the pleasure of it.' Isn't that me? Mengmeng, will you marry me?"
Gu Bai: "Susu, before I met you, I had no desires, and so I wanted nothing. After I met you, all I desired and wanted was you."
