"In the future, whenever you feel like night is descending upon you and there are no stars in sight, can you just look at me?"
Qiao Mu wanted to flash a tender smile, but when she met his earnest gaze, her smile failed to materialize.
"Even when I'm not right there beside you, you can still gaze at the star I've given you." He casually and nonchalantly touched the underside of her collar, extracting the little star for her to clasp tightly.
"Qiaoqiao," he sighed softly and rested his forehead on her slightly perspiring head. "I don't know what hardships and torment you've endured in the past. Maybe I'm powerless to alter them."
"But I want you to remember one thing."
"It means that from this point forward, no matter how dark the night or how arduous the path, I will be with you."
"Whatever you wish to do, just do it."
He reached up to caress her face. "I'm here to offer my unwavering support."
