He felt… his thoughts shi+ft He thought that he had already buried the yearning he would feel at that le year and the beautiful er felt pain because he was heartless, but right then, under the shadows cast by the light from the lamp, he felt a pain that wind could not bloay and snow could not bury
In the pain and cold, Su Ming remembered his elder, his senior brothers fro Lan, Xu Hui… the bald crane, and that one single face in his ht about them, he finished the pot of wine
He drank wine, because he no longer had any tears left He could only pretend that the as his tears Once he drank it, it becauish that he could never chase away froht as well let that bitterness reuish stay with hi so… will he know that he was still alive
