The opportunity to change is very important.
When a man is obsessed with lust, even the best of friends might fall out, but once the man sees the true face of his lover, the friendship can still be repaired if the friend offers comfort. However, if the friend comments inappropriately on the lover, it might still provoke aversion.
Why?
Because one can blame another when one mistakes a person before an event, but upon reflection, they may realize their own problems as well.
Humans find it hard to tolerate others pointing out their own mistakes.
If Shen Yue had met Zhao Ji in 1125, it might have been as hard as ascending to heaven to change Zhao Ji.
Why?
The reason is simple, although many people falter when on a smooth path, during times of success, people tend to become self-inflated and intolerant of suggestions, let alone opinions.
The year 1135 was the perfect moment to change Zhao Ji.
