Anyone who likes someone is a fool; love is too luxurious. She had seen so much parting and death in Afghanistan; in the face of life and death, human emotions are fragile and vulnerable.
Between couples and relatives, emotions are as fragile as paper when faced with life and death decisions.
She doesn't need such fragile emotions.
To live happily, one must discard the trivialities of life. She feels the most trivial, the most meaningless thing is the love between men and women, and a marriage sustained by a piece of paper.
With love comes arguments and annoyance.
Marriage is even more terrifying.
Every woman is a glowing pearl before marriage, but once taken home, she slowly turns into fish eyes.
There are already plenty of trivial matters in one's small household; to maintain a marriage, one has to force oneself to adapt to a new environment and a new extended family. To a lazy person like her, it's better not to marry.
Gu Linxi glanced beside her and sighed.
