The most heartbreaking thing in a person's life is not farewell in death, but the living separation where one doesn't know the whereabouts of their loved one. The old man, in his seventies, sobbed loudly, making both Xiao Xian and Zhuo Feng feel somber, unsure how to begin comforting him.
After hearing his story, Xiao Xian and Zhuo Feng realized that what truly weakened Bai Juyi wasn't his age, but the suppressed longing of over thirty years.
Zhuo Feng, straightforward by nature and never one to tolerate injustice, felt both angry and moved by the old man's experiences, "Master Bai, why are you still thinking of her? It's been over thirty years. Even if she was throwing a tantrum, it should have been enough. She left without a word; she clearly didn't have you in her heart. Besides, it was just a slap. When my spouse and I were dating, forget about a slap, he didn't know how many punches he took from me."
