With a vegetable leaf dangling from her mouth, Zhao Xiaoyue said, "Why should I know such boring things? Isn't it just finding a man and having a bunch of kids? What's so hard about that!"

At the comic convention, they clapped and gave a thumbs up, exclaiming, "Awesome! I admire you!"

The implication is that this is a cow!

But he still advised, "Mr. Zhao, life is very short, so short that sometimes it's over in the blink of an eye, but it is also very long, so long that it can't be erased even after several centuries."

"Still existing for centuries? Wouldn't that make it an ancient monster?"

"Do you know why it's so short? Because when you're with someone you truly love, no amount of time feels long; just like your master and his lover, as you said, they love each other to the very depths of their souls."

Seeing Zhao Xiaoyue's bewildered expression, An Zhan's eyes showed pity. "The body and soul cannot be separated; either will die if they are separated! This is called transience!"

Taking a sip of wine at the comic convention, he said, "Do you know why it has endured for centuries? Because the spirit of some people can live on through generations!"

He took another sip of his drink. "Some people love, and it's etched into their very bones; some people love," he said, pointing to the chimes ringing outside the convention center, "just a few chimes, gone and forgotten! The next chime won't be the same as the one from a moment ago!"

"Then I'll buy an alarm clock and set it to ring every second!" Zhao Xiaoyue said fiercely.

The person opposite smiled broadly, "So you don't understand love. You've lived for almost sixty years, and you still don't understand!"

Zhao Xiaoyue took another big bite of meat. Being single wasn't her fault!

Every blind date she goes on is either with unattractive people or those who are just filling in the numbers. The good ones always go to other people. What does it have to do with her!

Where can she gain experience?

"Thank you for the anime convention!" I was still a little touched.

"Hold on, I just wanted to relax a bit. Things at the hotel have been giving me a real headache lately. You've given me a chance to unwind."

At the anime convention, she elegantly raised her wine glass and touched the juice in front of Zhao Xiaoyue, saying, "Thank you, baby!" with a charming smile.

Zhao Xiaoyue's initial感动 (feeling of being moved) vanished instantly. What was she moved about?!

I knew this guy had ulterior motives!

In the afternoon, the comic convention left Zhao Xiaoyue alone at the hotel. He went out for a while and came back with several pieces of cake in his hand.

"Want a piece of France's most famous pastry?"

"I don't like sweets," the person under the covers said in a muffled voice.

"There's a show at the theater tonight, wanna go?" asked the manga artist, leaning against the bed.

"No, I want to sleep!"

"After the opera, I heard there were antiques being auctioned!" The anime convention recalled the news they had seen.

Before he could finish speaking, the person on the bed suddenly threw off the covers. "What was being auctioned off?"

He gave her a sly smile at the comic convention; he knew she was going to ask.

But she still pretended to be nonchalant and said, "I don't know, I didn't look closely. You're not going either, so let's go back. I've had enough fun anyway!"

As she was about to pack her luggage, she took a step and her arm was grabbed.

"Let's go see the opera!" Zhao Xiaoyue got out of bed and was ready in a few minutes.

The lights shone brightly at night, and a show featuring rock music and jazz dance was performed on the street. The two of them swayed and danced with the crowd! They were both having a blast!

There's a music-themed program being held here tonight; it's a big event.

I couldn't go to the theater, but I ran into a music festival.

As musicians leave, people get so caught up in the fun that they temporarily forget everything else.

Jump and jump, sway and sway, laugh and laugh!

"Hahaha, do you have no more worries now?"

"Yes, yes! But electric eel, where is this?"

The comic convention also came to a halt, but the flow of people ahead was still surging. "Never mind, just follow the crowd."

The bewildered duo followed a large crowd, hopping and skipping into a deep alley.

There seems to be a problem.

Zhao Xiaoyue grabbed a woman with dark skin. The woman had her eyes closed, her lips were upturned, and she was twisting and turning!

Everyone else is in a similar state.

"Damn electric eel, are these people on drugs?"

Upon closer inspection at the comic convention, it really is true!

They may have stumbled into a group of people using drugs.

There were high walls on both sides and crowds in front and behind them. Realizing the danger, the two tried to retreat, but they had already let the crowds rush inside.

People were packed together, making it hard for Zhao Xiaoyue to breathe. She didn't realize it when she was with the flow of people, but going against the flow was really impossible.

"You damn comic convention, aren't you a germaphobe? With so many people next to you, why don't you show some germaphobia!" He continued to push through the crowd.

"Nonsense! Don't you have contact dysphoria? Let me see you with your dysphoria!" The convention continued to struggle through the crowd.

No, no!

The two were pushed to the front by the crowd again, and they had to keep themselves from falling, or they would be turned into meat patties.

The further you go, the darker it gets, with only a faint glimmer of light on either side.

She felt as if she were walking on a spiral ramp, a structure roughly the size of a snail shell.

After walking for more than an hour, we finally saw a small path in the upper right corner of the convention center, which looked like a sewer pipe.

How did I end up here out of nowhere?

"Hey Zhao, hurry up and pull me up," Zhan whispered, clinging to a protruding building, feeling stuck and unable to get any leverage.

Like a monkey, Zhao Xiaoyue used the wall for leverage and climbed up.

"Quick, grab my arm, I'll pull you up." Zhao Xiaoyue squatted down and struggled to pull the comic booth up.

"I always tell you to eat less, but you never listen. You're so heavy! Ugh~" Finally, you pooped!

"No way, I'm very light. Stop talking nonsense and get going!"
