"We won't force you, nor will we hate you. Everyone here likes you."
"Xiao Shuai, if you want to stay, that's fine. I will continue to accompany you, and countless survivors will also accompany you."
"If you want to keep going, that's great too. Maybe in the future... you'll meet countless people like me."
"What we present to you are mostly the scarce resources for survival, the unbearable human nature, the harsh winter, the displaced people, the wars all over the land... The world is devastated, and it seems that there is nothing worth lingering on."
