Hung Ko once wrote, 'The contented man can be happy with what appears to be useless.'
Xiu certainly was that content person who was happy with just simple gestures that held overwhelming emotions and feelings. This must be the first time in her life that she was reluctant to open the windows to let the fireflies free.
In the past whenever Han Bohai got these lightning bugs for her, she'd immediately set them free. And she would do it with the biggest smile as well. However, it never stopped Han Bohai from getting fireflies for her repeatedly. If she was a fool who set them free, he was the fool who loved seeing the expression of pure joy whenever she opened the jar to let those fireflies fly away.
But tonight these fireflies represented something entirely different to her. That's why she was hesitating. But no matter how reluctant she was, she still opened the French windows and watched as the little balls of light flew away.
