"I am very foolish, but I am very happy."
Fifth Uncle, do you know? When I first saw you, you were like a ray of sunshine, illuminating my entire world.
I can have nothing, but I cannot be without sunshine, for it is the energy I rely on to survive, supporting as I stumble on in this vast world.
She lifted her head from his embrace, gazing directly into his eyes, "Fifth Uncle, do you love ?"
Yan Nanfeng looked deeply into her eyes.
She cautiously leaned forward, gently pecking his lips, again and again, like a startled fawn.
He just watched her, his gaze following her eyes. She began to grow bolder, extending her tongue to stir in his mouth. His tongue was bitter, a bitterness that reached her heart, causing tears to fall from her eyes.
Suddenly, he swallowed hard and turned his head, "Huahua, we cannot do this."
She crawled over, cupping his face, forcing him to look at her, "I want us to have a life with no regrets."
"You love , don’t you?" She grabbed his hand, placing it on her chest.
"Do you hear it? This heart, it beats only for you. Fifth Uncle, what are you hesitating about? What ethics, what moral taboos, I don’t care about any of them. We are just an ordinary pair of man and woman, shedding all identities and shackles, our love is pure, untainted by any desire...."
He suddenly fell silent, looking at his palm, lines crisscrossing, outlining his brief and bumpy life path.
His whole life, from the mont of birth, he had already seen its end.
For what did he live? He couldn’t find the answer. It was a question that terrified him. He feared death, yet he was also afraid of living. Countless nights he lay with eyes wide open, staring at the ceiling in the dark, struggling to keep his eyes open, for the night deepened his fears inside.
Suddenly he clenched his fist, this ti, he just wanted to live once for himself.
When he looked up again, his once lifeless eyes seed to co to life like withered trees eting spring, vibrant and bright, capturing one’s gaze.
"Huahua...." He called her na, embracing her, lowering his head to gently kiss her.
His kissing skill was really clumsy, like nibbling, and his stamina couldn’t keep up, soon he was panting heavily over her, both of them drenched in sweat, yet their hearts felt an unprecedented joy.
Her hands slowly wandered over his back, trying to undress him, but he held her hands in place: "Huahua... don’t."
This was already the limit, he didn’t want to take it further. He couldn’t be so selfish; he was a dying man. How could he take away her purity? That way, after his death, she could still remarry, find a good man, have children, and live a simple and happy life. Just the thought alone was heart-wrenching.
Unknowingly, love had already subtly taken root in his heart, and when he realized it, it was already ingrained in his bones.
But her hands didn’t stop, "Fifth Uncle... everything is my choice, no regret... no complaint."
He sighed, burying his face in her shoulder, "Huahua, I’m sorry...."
Yun Ya stood outside the door, unknowingly, his eyes already moist.
This was a love with no future, destined to end in tragedy from the start. But for them, perhaps this mont of intimacy was lasting happiness; a mont that equaled a lifeti.
This was the simplest and purest form of love, transcending morality and taboos, yet for Huahua, it was too cruel...
"Miss Ji...."
Yun Ya turned in surprise, seeing Aunt Cui standing beside him, holding a bowl of dicine.
Aunt Cui heard the sounds coming from inside the room, as soone with experience, she understood perfectly. At first, she was shocked, then she sighed helplessly, her tone full of lancholy.
The plump old lady seed to age ten years in an instant.
"Miss Ji, I hope you can keep this matter a secret. Fifth Master has suffered too much in his life; I don’t want him to leave with regrets. Miss Hua... I watched her grow up; she’s a child of misfortune too. The two of them supporting each other can also be considered a kind of reliance. If this spreads, who knows what kind of storms it could cause. Miss Ji, I’m begging you."
She suddenly knelt on the ground, intending to kowtow to Yun Ya.
Yun Ya hurriedly helped her up: "What are you doing? Please get up."
Aunt Cui refused to obey, so Yun Ya said: "Huahua is my friend, I’m just happy that she found true love. Why would I speak out and cause her embarrassnt?"
Aunt Cui wiped her tears and said: "Miss Ji, you are truly a good person."
