Xiao Yao traced her fingers over the mirror and asked with tears glistening in her eyes, “Xiang Liu, am I really so worthless in your eyes? So much so that you would not even leave me a single memory!”

“Since we are not fated to be together in this lifetime, it is better not to be indebted to one another, not to miss each other, as if… we never met, never knew each other.” -- Xiang Liu

Remembering, still missing this iconic character through the concept art from the official artbook... even now.

Cdrama: Lost You Forever (2023)

Lost You Forever / #长相思 (Chang Xiang Si) Really can't wait to see Xiang Liu again ❤️❤️❤️

But I don't think Xiang Liu wanted to be with Xiao Yao as she was ? At least, as the General of Chenrong, an indecisive Xiao Yao would be the death of a whole army. I 100% feel that Xiang Liu would have wanted the Haoling Princess if she'd been able to more forward with her trauma.

And she would have put down everything to leave with him if he'd just moved on as Fangfeng Bei.

I'm not saying they want each other for superficial reasons, but that they were molded by decades upon decades of trauma to remain pragmatic above all else. Her only wish is for someone to fulfil the promise of rescuing her from the mountain. His only wish is for Chenrong to win and survive.

"Although the possibility is very small, I'm still scared that I might accidentally let you into my dreams."
