"Because I have a beloved who is still in this word"…
"My beloved is a brave, noble, gracious special someone"…”He saved my life, and I've looked up to him ever since I was young. But I wanted to catch up to him and become even stronger for his sake. Although he might not remember me well—we never really talked —I want to protect him"
"If your dream is to save the common people, then my dream is only you."

"To die in battle for you is my
greatest honor."

"Your Highness, I understand your everything," Hua Cheng said quietly. "Your courage, your despair. Your kindness, your pain. Your resentment, your hate. Your wisdom, your foolishness.
"If I could, I would have you use me as your stepping stone, the bridge you take apart after crossing, the bones you need to trample on your climb, the sinner who endures the agony of a million knives.
But I know you won't allow it."

"I just genuinely really miss Your Highness,, the state preceptor said. "I miss our old Kingdom of Wuyong, I miss everyone from back then. I miss the days before we ascended. That's all."
..."
"It's been so many years," the state preceptor added. "Just watching you makes me tired. Very tired. How about you? Aren't you exhausted?"

"Gege? Gege?" he called to Xie Lian, who was still in his arms. Xie Lian had taken a brutal battering, and it took a while for him to blearily come around, his head still throbbing. But before his eyes even blinked open, he muttered,"...San Lang? Are you all right?"
Hua Cheng gazed at him for a moment, then suddenly pulled him hard into an embrace. “I’m completely fine"…"Why don't you take a look at yourself?"

“Will you change?! Will you change?!"
As if hed also gone mad, Xie Lian gripped Jun Wu's arm and roared, "I won't! I won't! I won't change!"
Even though the beating was so excruciatingly painful that it made him see stars, he stubbornly endured…and tears rolled as he screamed, " won't change! Even if t's painful, even if I die, I won't change, I will never change!" “

“Thus, Jun Wu grabbed him and slammed him into the rock wall again before asking him once more.
"Does it hurt? Does it hurt? Does it hurt?"
With each repetition, he slammed Xie Lian into the wall so hard that Xie Lian started screaming. But what he screamed was,
"San Lang, don't come over here! I'm fine-I'm fine! Absolutely do not come over!" “

"Remember? The one basking in infinite glory is you; the one fallen from grace is also you. What matters is you, not the state of you. No matter what happened in the past, I will never leave you. You can tell me anything."

“Jun Wu had been waiting for Xie Lian to be impaled on Zhuxin's blade and was rather disappointed to see that it had been blocked…Xie Lian had completely forgotten that Hua Cheng was a ghost…Worried even so, he covered the unbleeding wound on Hua Cheng's chest with both hands.
"San Lang, wh.what were you doing..so rashly.?!"
"As if I'd let it stab you again in front of me!" Hua Cheng re-sponded.”

“Feng Xin was almost burned by that pillar of fire, and he shouted in outrage. "What's wrong with you, you pieces of dog shit?!
Attacking people while they're down-so vile! Fuck your entire family!"
"You sure you want to fuck their families if they all look like that?!" Xie Lian responded.”

"I didn't agree to help him, but even so... everything he said, I've thought before," Mu Qing continued. "Deep down, I always thought you hated me, that you despised me, so I... I've always... Anyway, you don't actually think that way. I'm glad."

“As though someone were choking him, forcing him to speak, he stiffly said, "Isn't that normal? You... are rather amazing. You're...also...a better person than I am. In short, I.very much wanted...to become your f-f-friend."
"That incident after Xiane's fall... no matter if it was right or wrong, no matter ifI was in a difficult situation, I still owe you an apology." “

“ Without warning, Hua Cheng reached out and wrapped his arms around him, hard.
"Your Highness, please don't laugh like that anymore" Hua Cheng whispered. He hugged Xie Lian tightly. "Tr's not funny all..
It's not funny at all." “ p3 :(

"Yes! I promised you," Xie Lian replied. "Besides, there were so many weapons. Sabers, spears, swords-wouldn't I have been reduced to mush if they all stabbed me? Ha ha ha ha..."
He started to laugh, but the sound died in his throat. Hua Cheng's head had jerked back to stare at him the moment he said the word
"stabbed." His gaze was hard to describe, but it obliterated all the words Xie Lian had to say. “ p2

"San Lang, did you think I was going to stab myself earlier?" Hua Cheng didn't respond, but his expression was still extremely
sour.
"I wouldn't have," Xie Lian added.
Hua Cheng gave him a look. "Really?"
That look made Xie Lian feel quite guilty. At one point in his life, perhaps he really would have done that—in a truly dire situation.
But now, he never would again. “ p1

“But only his highness can decide what he wants to do. I will never oppose his decisions.”
AWHHHHHH

“Gege, what are you planning to do with that sword?”
Oh you know pal. (Incense burner extra ref)

No but I love the idea that Mu Qing took cursed shackles because he didn’t want to harm Xie Lian ❤️❤️❤️

“Don’t lose your marbles the second you look at his face.” AWHHHHHHHH AHHHHHHHHHHH FREE ME FREEEEEE MEEEEEEE

“That was your shadow!”
Yeah, because everyone knows their enemy-friends shadows like the back of their hand.
Obvi.
Damn queer.

“You already know the corned beef hash will give you explosive shits.”

I love the “may you….” For all the people who helped her write the book
Such a good book

MADDY IS FUCKING GRACE
OH MY FUCKING GOD
NEVER NEVER EVER EDPECTED THIS

“Everyone says their memories from senior sabbatical last a lifetime, and I know I’ll never forget this. Grave and I have been through a lot together, and no matter where the future takes us, she’ll always be there for me.”
AGHHHWHWHWHWHH NOOOOOOOOO

“Sometimes the ones we love the hardest. Hurt us the most.”

“The school tried to help, I guess, but you can’t force people to be kind, especially not middle school girls.”

“Our desires often feel like rocks weighing us down, burdens we carry that grow heavier over time. We’re so busy striving to cover our regrets, we might forgot to lift our rocks.”

“I’m happy for her. Truly. She deserves this.
Even if she is getting everything I’ve always wanted.”

“Secretly, I appreciate assigned seats. Zero pressure to read the room and find a seat next to someone who won’t make fun of me while I constantly worry if they’re disappointed I sat next to them instead of someone else.”

“I had to be there.”
“But why? Why couldn’t you be here with us?”

“I’ve been telling myself all year that Erica’s still my best friend. Things haven’t truly changed. She’s been busy, not forgetting me. She hasn’t been pulling away. I’ve been too sensitive.”
