Gu Xijiu smiled and said, "Humans have countless missions to complete in their lifetime, and the same goes for me even if I am a lady. My life should not be filled only with romance, and I should not make romance the only important thing in my life either. How boring would that be? Don't you agree? The world is such a vast place. We should go and explore it."
The concubine had not expected Gu Xijiu to take this matter so lightly. She sighed and responded, "It seems like you have not truly fallen in love with Mr. Huang. If you have fallen in love with him, you will find it suffering. Just imagine that after a century, he will still exist in this world, but he will be meeting other ladies. He will love and pamper them and ultimately marry one of them. When you think of it this way, you would feel jealous."
