Zi Mu asked Ling Zexu, "Do you know how long a lifetime is?"
Ling Zexu tapped Zi Mu on the tip of the nose and said with a smile, "A lifetime, to me, is the moment when you've stayed by my side until we're old and turn to dust. So this lifetime is so long because I have you by my side!"
The wind stirred softly. I can still remember it vaguely.
From youth to old age, from meeting to loving and hating each other. Perhaps a whole life is spent waiting; perhaps a whole life goes unloved. Zi Mu said, "I don't hate you..." This is the ending you least want to see, and yet the one you most want to see!
