We're Just Too Infatuated With Each Other

Yue Tingfeng became extremely submissive the instant after Yan Qingsi's surprise. He was like a tamed puppy, enjoying its fur being gently brushed along her fingers. The only difference was he did not nuzzle on Yan Qingsi.

Helan Fangnian's face grew paler than he ever could. However, it was only for a brief second. Without any reason, it was like he had been enlightened as if his mind had completely cleared up and all his worries were gone in a flash. His new-found positive perspective was like an old Buddhist teaching. Optimism comes to those who could let go of their baggage.

Perhaps it was due to the constant setbacks and failures he kept getting. This new-found optimism is perhaps the cumulation of all the constant setbacks. It's like a double negative effect. One can only struggle for so long until one eventually accepts one's fate and live on optimistically under the same circumstances.
