Alice's eyes widened in shock. "What!?"
"You're not to set down a self-fulfilling prophecy!"
"Self-fulfilling prophecy?" What did that mean?
"Haven't you ever come across it? In many television dramas, the general says to his childhood sweetheart, 'When I'm done with this war, I'll come back and marry you.'"
"So?"
The actor replied gloomily, "Then the general dies on the battlefield, and never makes it back."
Alice fell silent.
"You see, Shishi also said that with Little Yichen's impressive history of good health, he'd not fall sick easily. Now, you see, when it rains, it pours. He's in full isolated now. Shishi can't even visit him."
Alice licked her lips awkwardly and began to fidget. "Pfft, pfft, pfft!" She quickly spat.
Hua Jin sat slumped on the sofa. Now, despite his desire to return home, he could not. He had no idea where Gong Jie was. Although it was absolutely safe here, he could not go anywhere else except here.
