After she hung up on You Bei, she lifted her head to look at the sky.
In the past, she and Cheng Dongcheng had watched a movie together, in which the female protagonist, whenever she wanted to cry, would gaze up at the sky and say that it would allow her tears to flow back into her heart, making only her heart bitter, without showing her tears to others.
Back then, she laughed and told Cheng Dongcheng, "In the future, when I feel like crying, I'll look up like this and let my tears keep flowing back into my heart."
Cheng Dongcheng then fondly tousled her hair and said, "Silly girl, if you want to cry, cry in my arms, let your tears flow into my heart, and let my heart be the one to feel the bitterness."
— My tears, did they flow into your heart?
She had asked rather melodramatically at the time.
— Of course! Tears linger in your eyes and fall into my heart.
Cheng Dongcheng answered in such a manner, his hand playfully tickling the tip of her nose.
