However, this was just wishful thinking on his part.
Things we've never had before inspire longing, a desire to possess them like everyone else. Yet, these are all extremely extravagant dreams, the kind that are simply impossible to achieve.
The man listened to the laughter below and unknowingly fell asleep. When he woke up again, the bright moon was in the sky and the courtyard was completely silent.
Gu An'an didn't sleep very soundly.
