Old Jiangnan

I have countless reasons to save her.

For instance, she is Uncle Guo's daughter, and Uncle Guo has been tremendously kind to me.

For instance, she is Aunt Guo's daughter, and Aunt Guo raised me.

For instance, she is Brother Yelü's wife, and Brother Yelü is my good friend.

For instance, though she has always been spoiled and domineering, she has a strong sense of justice. She defended Xiangyang alongside her parents for sixteen years, fighting for her country and its people. She is, all things considered, a good woman.

So even if she looks down on me,

I will still save her.

Whenever I save her before my reason can catch up with my actions, I go over these reasons in my head again, and feel that I have a reasonable excuse.

It's just that I'm beyond saving.
