"Envy the mandarin ducks, not the immortals."
A saying like this suddenly appeared, rather sentimentally, in Mai Xiaomai's mind.
It is said that once mandarin ducks pair up, they stay together with utmost loyalty. If one dies, the other will also die of longing, and they will not transfer their affection to another like other animals do.
Moreover, they are always together, eating, sleeping, playing, and raising their children together…
"How wonderful!"
Mai Xiaomai couldn't help but sigh.
Actually, she didn't want her love life to become complicated.
But fate kept mocking her time and again.
Thinking of this, she felt a sudden sadness and reached out to get some water from beside her wheelchair, only to find that the water bottle had somehow fallen to the ground.
She stretched out her hand, trying to reach it but couldn't, and then leaned slightly to pick it up.
