In her daze, she seemed to hear someone speaking by her ear.
"My name is Duanmu Qing. I have already forgotten how old I am. How about you?"
"My name is Qiao Mu, age 20. How long have you been locked up in here?"
"I don't remember anymore. I was only 19 when I got here. I don't know how many years have passed by since then. It must have been at least four to five years…"
While heaving a long sigh, Duanmu Qing also said, "Actually, after living in the dark for so long this whole time, I don't worry that I won't ever see the light again."
"Qiaoqiao, do you still remember what the starlit sky is like?"
"If I can get out…"
"I will definitely spend three days and nights observing that faraway starlit sky."
"Qiaoqiao, promise me one thing okay. Do not die before me."
"It really is too hard to bear it all by myself in the darkness…"
As Qiao Mu crouched on the ground, tears had already unwittingly streamed down her face.
