Chapter 3: Friendship: Oaths and Promises


"I'm sorry," Yue Qingyuan gasped. "I really didn't stay away deliberately, but the world is cruel. I missed you by days."

"Zhangmen-shixiong, stop," Shen Qingqiu said desperately. Why didn't you say this to Shen Jiu when he was here? How can I accept an apology for a dead man?

"You really won't... say Qi-ge any more?"

You could have saved all those years of fighting! Just like me with Luo Binghe, never speaking until it was too late!

Wait. It's too late for Shen Jiu—but maybe not for Yue Qingyuan?

"Qi-ge." He cleared his throat. "Xiao Jiu forgives you."
