The Heart Beats

Bai Rouyun and Li Moyun were both seemingly calm and collected as they met again after years apart, but their shaking hands and trembling hearts were uncontrollable as they interlocked their fingers and refused to let go.

Although it had merely been a few years, to the two of them, it was almost like a lifetime. So much had happened throughout the years, and especially Li Moyun's constant pursuit of strength had made every day a struggle for survival.

"I am finally here." As Bai Rouyun spoke, her hand lifted and gently caressed Li Moyun's face. She slid her finger across the wheat-colored skin on his forehead and smoothed out the wrinkles that seemed to have been created by constantly frowning.

Trailing down the side of his face, she reached the eyes that seemed to contain the entire universe; sparkling like the starry sky, and containing beautiful colors like the hazy faraway galaxies.
