Waiting for advice. It’s urgent.

[The Practical Guide to Catching Rabbits]

One day, Qin Lü was surfing the internet to kill time in his spacious office on the 36th floor.

By chance, he saw a popular thread titled “Read This! A Step-by-Step Guide to Catching Rabbits.”

Lawyer Qin rubbed his chin, thinking of the wild rabbit at home that often bared its teeth. He clicked on the thread and started learning.

[Step One: Learn about wild rabbits’ habits and activity patterns]

Done.

[Step Two: Learn to track wild rabbits and approach them by hiding or imitating them]

Easy enough. His mouse was already moving toward the red X.

[The final step to catching rabbits, and also the most important one, with bold exclamation marks!: Rabbits are very timid creatures! Never treat them roughly. Soothe them gently and take things slowly! Then you’ll end up with an adorable little rabbit who loves you to bits~ Hehe, here’s a picture of my precious baby to make you jealous! [My cross-eyed rabbit munching on a carrot.jpg]]

There were plenty of comments below, with people calling the original poster a troll and saying the post contained no useful information and was a complete waste of time.

Qin Fengsheng frowned and, for once, made an account to show his support.

[User 2674846: Why are you all blaming the original poster? There’s nothing wrong with the advice. I did the same thing, and the one at home... well, they do have quite a temper, but they really love me!]

Lawyer Qin coolly hit Enter, ignoring the commenters demanding [No picture, no proof]. Then he happily went downstairs to chauffeur his own rabbit around.

Come on, that was his precious rabbit. How could he let other people see it?

[Blurb]

Sun Xi, the second son of the powerful Sun family in the capital, could recognize a thousand characters at three and recite classical poems at five. Before he even started school, the pieces he casually wrote were already being sung throughout Chang’an.

What kind of life was that? The life of a successful man, of course.

But when white jade is too flawless, even the tiniest blemish becomes hard to accept.

For Sun Xi, the most unacceptable stain on his life was the little wife his father had married for him without asking.

Tian Feijing.

Her name, her looks, her mannerisms: everything about her made her seem like the sort of person who would

blend into the crowd no matter what she did.

Sun Xi was utterly ordinary, and utterly arrogant.

Tian Feijing was utterly ordinary, so he paid her no mind.

Until one day, on the Boluo River, Sun Xi was dazed and his head throbbed violently.

He asked,

“Where do people go after they die?”

“They return to the heart of the person who loves them.”

Sun Xi fell for her.

Years later, one evening, Lord Sun sat with his grandchildren on his knees and told this story for the forty-sixth time, still savoring every moment. The children marveled, while the silver-haired woman beside him looked up in surprise.

“I did say that, but I never said that the person in my heart was you.”

“Lord Sun, please stop making yourself the main character.”

This is not exactly a smooth, sweet tale of two people falling in love. After all, not everyone gets everything they want, or gets to be with the person they want.

In the end, this is simply the commonplace, unwilling start of a tragedy for two ordinary people caught in the tide of their times.

But when disaster suddenly strikes, will they waste their lives feeling sorry for themselves, or refuse to settle and do their best to keep living?

If Sun Xi had never met Tian Feijing, what kind of woman would he have married?

Maybe someone he loved, maybe not. But she certainly wouldn’t have been Tian Feijing, whose family was so far beneath his own.

If Tian Feijing had never been brought from the foot of Fuyu Mountain to the entrance of Shendao Street, what kind of man would she have married?

Perhaps a handsome man, or perhaps just an ordinary local gentleman with a gentle disposition. But he certainly wouldn’t have been Sun Xi, an immature, naive playboy who excelled at being arrogant, conceited, and obnoxious.

But life has no ifs.

Sun Xi and Tian Feijing, two people shoved together against their will, could only accept reality.

Even if the person beside you in bed isn’t the one in your heart, and the wish in your heart is as distant as the moon beneath the sea, it’s your life, and you have to grit your teeth and make something of it.

The world is full of chance, and so are our meeting and my love for you.

But if you look at it another way,

perhaps everything was destined all along.

Our meeting, and my love for you.

Theme: When disaster strikes, never waste your life feeling sorry for yourself. Pull yourself together and believe that action will bring results.
