Chapter 65: Reflections in the Moonlight

In the stillness of the night, Jiang Wei found himself drawn to the tranquil beauty of the moonlit courtyard. Surrounded by the soft glow of moonbeams filtering through the trees, he allowed himself a moment of quiet contemplation amidst the tumult of his emotions.

As he gazed up at the luminous orb hanging in the night sky, Jiang found solace in its serene presence. The moon, with its gentle light and steadfast presence, seemed to offer him a sense of peace and clarity amidst the chaos of his inner turmoil.

With a heavy heart, Jiang began to reflect on the events that had led him to this moment. He thought of Mei Lin, her laughter and kindness filling his mind with bittersweet memories of a love that could never be.

But even as he mourned the loss of what might have been, Jiang knew that he could not allow his own feelings to cloud his judgment or undermine the bonds of friendship that united him with Shājiā'ěr and Mei Lin. He understood that their happiness was not something to be resented, but rather celebrated, even if it came at the cost of his own heartache.

In the soft embrace of the moonlight, Jiang made a silent vow to set aside his own desires and support his friends in their journey together. Though the path ahead might be fraught with challenges and heartache, he knew that he would find strength in the bonds of friendship and the unwavering light of the moon to guide him through the darkness.
