Winter's breathing became heavy, everything from that night, all these years, he never forgot, it was a torment for him, whether in spirit or in flesh.
Nawei's appearance was unexpected, but Winter had to admit, her words truly affected him.
Winter clenched his fists, he couldn't be distracted, he couldn't waver.
He had already promised uncle and aunt, promised Meow, he would stay, he would forget everything, he would marry the girl he longed for day and night, he promised to protect her.
Winter kept telling himself, "I chose Meow, it's Meow..."
It took a full hour for Winter to finally calm down, his forehead was covered with sweat, Winter sat up.
Only one day left, the day after, it would be his and Meow's engagement banquet, the girl he wanted was within reach, he couldn't let her down.
...
That late night, Nawei asked the blond, blue-eyed foreign man in front of her.
"I told Winter there was a clue about his enemy, will he... really leave with me?"
