Red as Vermilion, Green as Jade: A Fateful Misstep

Seeing red as green, my thoughts grow tangled The Great Way has always seemed crooked There are always people in this world whom you love with all your strength, only to drift farther and farther apart. And there are others who love you with everything they have, yet no matter what, they can never reach your heart. When all that passion and fervor fades away in the hardships of life, leaving only emptiness and desolation, it feels like an endless night. When will dawn finally come? A mistaken match, a match made in error: did it ultimately bring them together, or simply waste their years? Seeing red as green, my thoughts grow tangled; the Great Way has always seemed crooked. In the swirling fog, everyone has lost their way. As stubborn love gradually fades, so too does the instinct to fight back. By the time he suddenly understands, all he can do is catch a glimpse of her departing figure. Jiali said to Mu Zihao: “Mu, I know I've wronged you. But this is how things are going to be in this life. Go ahead and hit me, blame me. I know you can't bring yourself to do it. But I want you to know I remember everything. I'll repay what I owe you in this life in the next.” Mu Zihao kept smiling, comforting her and himself at the same time. “Don't put so much pressure on yourself. Let the debt stand; the more debts you have, the less they matter. Besides, who knows? Maybe I owed you in a past life, and I'm still paying it off in this one.” Mu Zihao said to Sheng Li: “Honey, I'm sorry. Since I married you, I shouldn't have kept Jiali in my heart all this time. I'll change, I really will.” Sheng Li smiled. “Oh, spare me, Mu Zihao. I know you. The moment Jiali cries, you forget everything else. To be honest, of course I mind. I mind a lot that my husband treats another woman so well! But Jiali is my friend too, and I know she's going through a hard time. If you didn't help her now, you wouldn't be the Mu Zihao I married. You’re honest with your friends and filial to your parents. What do you think a great beauty like me saw in you? But remember one thing: I'm your wife, and I love you more than anyone in the world.” Sheng Li said to Zihua Jun: “Maybe I have no right to say this, but Jiali is too weak. She doesn't dare say what needs to be said, so I'll say it for her. What are you thinking? If you liked Su Tie, why didn't you act sooner? Why wait until he has a wife and child before coming in to stir things up? That's just... Never mind. I don't want to say anything so harsh that Your Highness can't bear to hear it. I'll just say this: the gods are watching, so think carefully before you act. Good and evil both have their consequences.” Zihua Jun smiled faintly, her teeth neat and white as pearls. “Miss Sheng, I don't blame you for being so protective of your friend. But when it comes to two people's relationship, a third person has no place interfering. I'm not talking about you; I'm talking about myself. Whatever happens between Su Tie and Liu Jiali is their business, and has nothing to do with me.” Zihua Jun said to Su Tie: “Su, we should part ways. I want a partner who gives me his whole heart, but you can't do that anymore.” Su Tie was silent for a long while. “I'm sorry, Gloria.” Su Tie said to Jiali: “The baby's already so big. Is it too late for me to confess now?” Through her tears, she smiled. “I thought I'd have to wait until we were old... Do you think it's too late?” Our exciting new release An ongoing archaeological fantasy novel Completed works include one of the 40 finalists in the Rainbow Cup competition: The Three Ye Sisters series (the first two books made the monthly and quarterly charts, and were also featured in an editor's recommendation) Historical transmigration series (this book appeared on the transmigration theme chart, monthly chart, quarterly chart, half-year chart, and other rankings) My debut novel (this book appeared on Jinjiang's 20th official recommendation list) Theme:
