He chuckled softly, his laughter like rolling thunder, which swept open her bosom:
"Chang Le, just keep moving forward with determination."
"At the end of the Milky Way, fate has already arranged a gift."
"But before that, I have three gifts for you."
He opened his palm, and three orbs of light floated up.
He gently touched the first ball of light:
"The first gift, including the video we just saw, is a gift earned through your kindness and positive will."
"This is the starlight of your well-intentioned expectations for your peers."
The ball of light expands, and the picture unfolds.
Chang Le saw—
The aged Qin Xian chose to publicly acknowledge the failure of the fusion, the laboratory was forcibly disbanded, and its leaders jointly published an article arguing that fusion was a false proposition for the general public.
Amidst the uproar of public anger, the arrogant and conceited Qin Xian committed suicide to atone for his sins.
His military achievements in the first half of his life collapsed, and his sins in the second half were numerous and heavy, all of which vanished with the end of his life.
Then the scene changes—
Ancient trees on cloud-covered cliffs, on both sides of a chessboard.
She heard Gu Yujing's answer to the old man's question.

It was you who made Qin Xian firmly pursue his own path instead of clinging to obsessions; it was you who made Gu Yujing believe that the turmoil caused by fusion could be avoided. This is your good deed; there's no need to thank me.
He paused, then grasped the second ball of light:
"I gave you the first gift as a matter of convenience, but the second one was given to you by someone else at my request."
“Do you remember what Fu Guang said he wanted to retrieve from the no-man’s land in the north? That’s the gift he wanted to give you.”
Chang Le was stunned and immediately looked at the ball of light.
