"That's not necessarily true. Maybe others will be inspired by your story and cherish their current relationship even more. And even though a long time has passed, haven't you never forgotten it? I think it must be Duan Qimei's memories," Guo Shiyi said persistently, not afraid that Lin Shiwei would get annoyed.

"Do you really want to hear it?" Lin Shiwei asked. Guo Shiyi's words had successfully stirred up countless emotions that had been lingering in her heart. Perhaps it was because these emotions had been suppressed for too long, but she had never met a suitable person to share them with. So she usually preferred to keep them to herself and let them digest slowly rather than mention them in front of others. Today, she had finally met Guo Shiyi, a confidante, and it made her want to confide in her.

"Yes, I want to hear it." Guo Shiyi nodded seriously.

Lin Shiwei pulled Guo Shiyi to sit down on the sofa in the shop. After sighing, she slowly said, "Actually, it was just a tragic fate." As she spoke, she couldn't help but close her eyes in pain before continuing, "That happened thirty years ago. When I first met him, I already had a boyfriend. He was introduced to me by my family. Actually, at that time, I didn't understand what true love was. People's thoughts were simpler back then, and their feelings were simpler too. It was just because my boyfriend was outstanding and was introduced by my family that I started dating him. Normally, if two people get along well, they can get married and have a happy event in a year or two. But I never expected that I would meet him."

"Back then, he and my boyfriend at the time were best friends, and we met because of my boyfriend. Some people are just destined to be each other's downfall; once you meet them, you're doomed. Some things are just inexplicable. Although we both knew it was wrong, we were always irresistibly drawn to each other. Although we never confessed our feelings, we could understand each other's thoughts with just a glance or a small gesture. Sometimes we were very close and could clearly feel each other's heart fluttering. But this feeling of wanting to get closer but being blocked by reality made me feel so far away from him. Sometimes we were very far apart and didn't see each other, but when I heard news about him from other people, I felt he was very close. During that time, I was constantly struggling between reality and my true feelings."

Lin Shiwei was completely absorbed in her memories, her eyes already brimming with tears, but she didn't notice at all. Regardless of Guo Shiyi's reaction, she continued, "Later, I finally made up my mind, had a fight with my family, and broke up with my boyfriend. I thought that this way we could be together openly, but I didn't expect that at the last moment he would run away and go to a very, very far place to learn martial arts."

"Oh, he's gone too far! He's such an irresponsible scumbag!" Guo Shiyi said angrily, and then hugged Lin Shiwei's shoulder with concern.

"Yes, that's what I thought too. I hated him so much that I just randomly married someone else out of despair." As Lin Shiwei said this, tears streamed down her face.

"However, such a married life was destined to be full of pain. Later, I couldn't bear to torture myself any longer, so I had another big fight with my family and chose to get a divorce. At that time, divorce was not as common as it is now. It was a very shameful thing. My parents couldn't accept it at all. Homeless, I had no choice but to run away on my own. Later, by a twist of fate, I became a blood witch and came here."

Hearing this, Guo Shiyi didn't know how to comfort her, so she just held her hand tightly without saying a word.

"You're right about something: you must cherish your current relationship, and never make any major decisions on impulse, or you'll regret it for the rest of your life," Lin Shiwei said in a deep voice.

Guo Shiyi nodded and asked, "Did you see each other again after that?"

"Later he also came to Crescent City and became somewhat famous there, but we never met," Lin Shiwei said calmly.

"Why don't you meet?" Guo Shiyi asked.

"Because the wounds of the past have not yet healed, and because we don't know how to face the future, what good would it do if we met? Every blood witch is destined to be alone; this is the curse of every blood witch," Lin Shiwei said slowly.

"So, you two haven't known each other for very long, have you?" Guo Shiyi said.

"Yes, it was a short time, and there weren't many beautiful stories, but some people are like shooting stars. Although they only briefly streak across your world, they leave the deepest mark on your heart, one that you can't forget even if you want to. Because only at the moment it streaks across your heart can you truly feel the real taste of love, unrelated to loneliness or romance," Lin Shiwei murmured.

"You're talking about Old Li from Beicheng, right?" Qin Xiaochuan suddenly said.

"You know him?" Lin Shiwei frowned as she looked at Qin Xiaochuan. Before Qin Xiaochuan could answer, she asked warily, "So your coming here wasn't a coincidence, was it? Did he send you here?"

"No," Qin Xiaochuan said, "I wanted to commission him to make a magical artifact for us, but he kept hesitating. However, this artifact is too important to us because it concerns Shiyi's safety, so I had to investigate him privately, hoping to find a breakthrough. That's how I found out about you. Actually..." Qin Xiaochuan hesitated for a moment before continuing, "Actually, he has always been thinking about you and would secretly come to see you every few days."

"I know," Lin Shiwei said without any surprise.

"You knew?" This surprised Qin Xiaochuan.

"Yes, I know, and I think he knows I know too, but we just don't say it out loud. Just like back then, even though we were far apart, we could sense each other's thoughts." Lin Shiwei spoke calmly, as if she were talking about something insignificant.

"Actually, Sister Wei still misses him a lot, doesn't she?" Guo Shiyi said.

"I hate him," Lin Shiwei said without hesitation, her tone fierce. But after a moment, she slowly added, "But sometimes I miss his kindness at night. Although his gentleness is always slow and cautious, I can clearly feel his sincerity. But even though it was so sincere, he chose to run away in the end. I really can't forgive him."

"Wounds always heal, and maybe love is the only cure. Why don't you try meeting him?" Guo Shiyi asked.

"After experiencing so much, I've come to understand one thing: if fate brings us together, there's no way to escape it; if fate doesn't bring us together, there's no use in forcing it, it will only add more pain," Lin Shiwei said calmly, as if she had seen through everything.

"Are you really willing to just give up on your fate so easily?" Guo Shiyi asked.

"Does refusing to accept fate mean being willful? I'm not the only one like this. Everyone has their own suffering from unfulfilled desires. Otherwise, how could there be so many people in this city?"

Guo Shiyi was silent for a moment. She remembered Qin Xiaochuan telling her about Old Li wanting to seal his memories, so she asked, "If one day he lets go of you and stops coming to see you, will you also be able to completely let go of the past and find liberation?"

Lin Shiwei was stunned upon hearing this, unable to speak for a long time, but tears streamed down her face.

Seeing Lin Shiwei's expression, Guo Shiyi didn't say anything more. After Lin Shiwei calmed down a bit, Guo Shiyi changed the subject and chatted with her about other things. Then, she picked out a beautiful bow for Xiaoying in the store, and then she picked out a stylish pair of sunglasses for Han Kexin. Only then did she reluctantly say goodbye to Lin Shiwei.

"You must come often in the future," Lin Shiwei said reluctantly, holding Guo Shiyi's hand.

"Yes, of course! I really love Sister Wei's designs," Guo Shiyi said with a smile.

Looking at her sweet smile, Lin Shiwei couldn't help but smile gently as well, and said, "Shiyi, do you know? You have a healing power about you."

"Really?" Guo Shiyi said happily, "Then I definitely won't waste my talent."
