𖠵𝟎𝟒: initially, you two kept your relationship hidden from the public eye, but then someone started prying and spreading rumors.

𖠵𝟎𝟗: she once told you, “out of every antique and piece of gold in this chamber, you, my dear, are the most prized and cherished.”

and after reading more about it, she started calling you “xiào niâo” which means “little bird” and “(little) love.”
❝You know, xiào niâo… After being in a relationship with you for quite some time now and knowing what cheating refers to, I can’t seem to comprehend why someone would do such an awful thing to their partner… They’re dedicating their love and time to them, are they not? So why betray their kindness and commit your love to someone completely different?❞
