Recalling the past always exuded a heart-tearing pain.
However, that kind of pain will fade away slowly with time—and eventually, that pain will remain only in the past.

Gu Qingjiu wasn't a kind person. Or maybe, it was because she held herself back too much.
When she lashed out at the people who bullied her in jail, she only felt a sense of satisfaction.
It was a type of pleasant feeling that even her soul would rejoice.
It was a type of addictive delight.
Some people couldn't resist it, so they committed a crime.
Some people could resist it and suppress it in their hearts—those were the truly scary ones.

Gu Qingjiu had more or less changed.
