Bab 173: Disheartening Topic

"This test of time will be beneficial for you two," Li Chenyang pointed out, though he couldn't bring himself to support this idea. 

Li Chenyang was fearful of the heartbreak she would face in Hanjian if she chose to go with Yu Zhen, but he was also fearful of the heartbreak she would feel in Wuyi if she remained. To be far away from Yu Zhen without any proper means of communication except the occasional letter or two was a bleak thing to imagine for this pair of lovers.

Long-distance relationships were always difficult.

With the disheartening topic, the room suddenly felt suffocating. 

Li Xueyue shifted her gaze to the locked window. Absentmindedly, she wandered towards it, unlocked it, and pushed it open to peer outside. A cool, refreshing breeze whirled past her, calming her uneasy nerves. She leaned out of the window to peer up at the cloudless night and star-speckled sky.
