At that moment, a myriad of complex emotions flashed through Ou Manhui's heart.
To love only one person for life, to protect only one person?
When she was young, she also believed she could walk with that person to the ends of the earth, walking on from youth to old age, with greying temples, still seeing the other as the best and most beautiful person in the world.
But later...
Who would have thought? They hadn't even reached youth, and everything came to an end.
No daily interactions in between, no chance to see mountains and rivers hand in hand, and they hadn't even grown old before there was no "after."
She once thought she could learn to like someone else, but having met that person, how could she still like anyone else?
Without him, her life lost its meaning.
Yet, she couldn't persuade herself to stay, nor could she make herself forget him, couldn't stop loving him, maybe that was why she couldn't forgive him and kept on hating him.
