“The life of a scholar is mere training for dying”

See I wanna have hope in the ending but this is Kuang’s writing we’re talking about

I knew this chapter was coming and I still wasn’t ready

And the relatability continues😤

“They argued over whether numbers had colors and personalities. Peter insisted they did: three was blue, five was red, two was yellow, and four was orange; eight was a ponderous bore, and nine was a voluptuous seductress — and what color? Oh, obviously, burgundy. Nine was wine”

I’ve never once thought about what number was what color, but now this is gonna send me into a deep dive🤔
