Ou Manhui's body also stiffened slightly, not understanding what he meant, opened her mouth but didn't know what to say, ultimately remained silent, and looked out the window at the sky.
The sky was dark without any brightness.
The streetlights blinked wearily.
At first glance, the sky seemed endless, just like the darkness without end.
At first glance, the light from the streetlights was so small, flickering reluctantly, as if trying to illuminate the bewildering path ahead.
Tomorrow, finally, will reach the end.
Tonight, ultimately hard to sleep.
They stood like this, side by side, neither speaking a word nor glancing at each other, although they stood side by side, it seemed as though they were looking in two directions, one towards the light, one towards the dark.
Just like all the sigh-inducing kindred spirits in the world without destined ties, initially heart and soul intertwined, ultimately worlds apart.

Dawn broke.
