“i will never forget you!!!”

Hearing Chu Wanning say "I love you" out loud hits so much you have no idea. The "good night Mo Ran" and the "there's fire, lights, and home" part is very sweet yes but to finally hear Chu Wanning say he loves Mo Ran?? The one thing I was waiting for while reading the novel?? I love Chu Wanning verbal love affirmations I need it injected into my veins.

imagine you're 16 years old and you have a huge crush on this celebrity that you use as a coping mechanism to get through high school and your shitty home life. then your celebrity crush openly protests against the corrupt government which causes him to get canceled on Twitter and his old boy band kicks him out and his parents get assassinated. then one day you go to the bar and he's there getting blackout drunk and starting fights with people so you follow him around to make sure he doesn't die but then he almost gets hit by a bus so you push him out of the way and get hit by the bus instead. when you wake up in the hospital no one knows where he is but you miraculously have a full scholarship to law school. 30 years pass and you become very successful lawyer. you get a case representing a garbage man who uncovered key evidence in an unsolved murder from 30 years ago. you go to meet with your new client for the first time. it's your old celebrity crush.
