Based on two principles: to lie, then it means to keep it to the end; to be honest, means to dismantle it without leaving anything behind.
However, Ai Zhiyi just messed things up. He told one truth without revealing all the lies he kept; made him wonder, did he just ruin the plot of his life?
The terrific sadness suddenly felt so suffocating and the regrets almost made him fall into a pit of despair.
But again, he didn't have to fear such feelings. He had gotten used to them for a long time. He just needed to be forbearing as he always did.
From the start until now, he had never made the right decision. However, how much regret came and how he sunk into the deepest grief, nothing would change what had passed. All he could do was indoctrinate his mind continuously not to weep and focus on what he would decide in the future.
