Tan Fangxu walked to the bedside. "Little sister, focus on getting better first. He'll be fine."
"No, brother. When he came back that day, he was already at death's door. If I..."
"I sent him medicine," Tan Fangxu interrupted. "He'll be fine. On this trip down the mountain, I learned a little about the two of you. I wasn't there for you growing up, so are you sure what you feel for him isn't just a sibling's affection? And as for his feelings for you..." He couldn't bring himself to say the words that would deny it. What he'd seen while coming down the mountain had already said enough about the man's feelings. He knew he owed his little sister a lot, and had always wanted to give her the best: happiness.
Tan Danya understood what he meant, of course. But she was no ordinary sixteen- or seventeen-year-old girl. Even though she wanted an uneventful life, she didn't want to deny herself. He had been by her side for so many years, and she wanted to stay by his side, too.
From negative infinity to positive infinity.
Forever.
