Listening to Wang Shuqiu talk about her brother, Du Heng suddenly felt that the slight dissatisfaction he held towards her had quietly vanished.

Love makes one blind! This phrase, with both commendatory and derogatory connotations, crept into his mind.

Du Heng glanced back at Wang Shuqiu. She was still talking about what her brother was like during his episodes and the things he had done.

However, Du Heng's thoughts were not on that. Perhaps I'm ill, he thought. No matter how hard I try, I can't recall that original dissatisfaction I had with Wang Shuqiu. Instead, my heart is shrouded in a faint mist I can't wipe away, a mist that casts a gloom over it.

What I crave deep down is a clean, pure love, without any concealment or deception.

I should be angry and dissatisfied with Wang Shuqiu's concealment and her urging me. But inexplicably, I also feel her reaction was understandable.
