A bitter breath slipped past his lips. He shut his eyes, but it didn't help.
The words he had read were already carved into his mind, making it impossible to erase, to forget.

'Heh… I wish you two were here… Xiao Pei, Lu Yi…'
His voice was low, almost swallowed by the night wind.
"Master! Master! What are you doing up there?! The house will break!"
The sudden shout shattered the silence.
Fang Yuan tilted his head slightly, glancing down. Below, Bai Changlu stood in a panic, arms half-raised as if ready to catch the entire roof should it collapse.
A faint smile tugged at Fang Yuan's lips.
