At that moment, he turned away indifferently, letting the golden house he had promised to build for her in his youth gradually wither and collapse in their hearts. That month, as he looked at his daughter's innocent and lovely face, he suddenly realized that he would never again receive the genuine, trusting, and bright smile from her when she looked up at him. That year, she wandered through the world, trying to escape, but ultimately couldn't avoid it. She helplessly discovered that she could never go back to the very beginning. That lifetime…our lifetime. When our hair turns white, we close our eyes and look back on our lives, all the joys and sorrows, the ups and downs, the anger and the grief, will be clearly visible. Only when those hidden threads in our lives surface will we realize the intricate connections and karmic bonds buried behind them. Have you ever heard the saying, "Once bitten by a snake, twice shy"? I truly don't not love you; it's just that no matter how hard I try, I can't convince myself of your love. Time flows like water, perhaps it can dilute resentment and pain, but how can a heart that has been hurt openly and receptively be close to the person who hurt it? Perhaps the seeds I sowed were destined to bear fruit I could not bear. There are truly some things in this world that even the mighty imperial power cannot force. Though I don't say it, I truly regret it—regret letting you out of my sight, regret missing your vibrant, flourishing years.
