What a terrible New Year!
She had endured her sleepiness for so long just to confess her feelings to him in the early hours of the morning.
An Yuan'er got off the swing, ignoring what the man behind her was doing, and stormed back to her room, slamming the door shut behind her.
The door slammed shut so loudly that it could be heard clearly even through several walls.
It's easy to imagine how angry An Yuan'er was.
An Yuan'er returned to her room and covered her head with her hands, but the intense memory of that kiss kept flashing through her mind.
The blush on her face was still there, but a nameless fire burned in her heart.
"You big idiot, you big idiot."
I shouted it countless times, but I still felt unsatisfied.
An Yuan'er hypnotized herself to sleep, to go to sleep quickly.
Tomorrow, I will forget everything.
With so many people liking this fairy, she doesn't want to hang herself on one big tree!
An Yuan'er rolled around on the bed unwillingly, hundreds of times, but still couldn't fall asleep.
What should I do? This tree is the one I've loved and admired since I was a child.
Liking other big trees is easy to say, but An Yuan'er can't do it!
It was very late when An Yuan'er, exhausted from all the commotion, finally lost consciousness and passed out.
Yi Chenli remained by the swing, refusing to leave.
This swing was specially made for her when she wanted to come that year. Over the years, as the girl has grown up, the size of the swing has been changed many times, making it the most suitable for a girl.
Yi Chenli touched his lips; An Yuan'er's scent still lingered there.
She wasn't the kind of person who exuded a strong aura from the start; she was subtle, gradually conquering territory until she had taken over every inch of land.
Yi Chenli's thoughts drifted away, recalling many, many things.
The first time he saw her, he saw a pink little bundle of flesh, running a high fever, snuggling into his arms.
From the first time they met, she liked to lean on him. He was someone others kept at arm's length, someone they disliked and avoided, but he was someone she longed for. Back then, she was so young, and she even helped him fight in the snow to chase away Yi Chenqi.
It seemed that fate had been sealed from that moment on.
Yi Chenli had never heard the most beautiful words of love in the world, spoken by a five-year-old child who held his finger. She said she would be his eyes, his feet, and paint every inch of the world's scenery for him.
I initially thought it was just a child's joke, but she has spent so many years doing this.
And the first time she fought to protect her, offending the Empress for her sake—it's unimaginable where her courage came from. She was the bravest and kindest girl he had ever met.
They grew up together. He still remembers her first period, his cautious yet complicated feelings, and how he felt when she fell off a horse while learning to ride, and how he felt even more heartbroken than she did...
They had unknowingly accumulated so many memories together.
These memories are irreplaceable.
He disliked everything about the filth in this world, but he only loved her. She was the only one he loved.
He knew his own heart all too well; he wanted to love her unconditionally, but he was afraid of hurting her, harming her, and dragging her down with him.
She is the most beautiful treasure in the world, and he doesn't want to leave a shadow on her or tarnish her because of him.
Tick-tock, tick-tock—
A light drizzle began to fall, dripping onto people's bodies.
Yi Chenli didn't dodge; he just stayed where he was, getting soaked in the rain.
