[ yea and she's one of them, also because she thinks it's funny.
she smiles at hua cheng, though, pleased and yet unsurprised that he's been able to see that, too. but of course he would. he's as dedicated to xie lian as anyone could be. ]

Considering how long it's been, it did take a little time for him to start noticing, didn't it? Enough that he could stop thinking it was a fluke, or only a few people.

[ she doesn't actually know how long it's been, or anything like that. ]
Yeah. I'm really glad he's starting to get that Whatever he's been through before... it's made him strong and all, but he should get to be happy, too. That's why I'm glad he has you - because even if we can't visit each other after this ends, he should have someone who makes him happy.
