Crying Out at the Center of the World

"At the time, why did you run over?"

"Because I was afraid you would be injured by the falling flower pot."

"Even though, at the time, you were deep in the dark palace and being discovered would bring great troubles on yourself?"

"I didn't have time to think."

"Even though, at the time, you were in a hurry to get to Weiyang Palace and attend the Ivy Festival, take out the marriage contract, and destroy the Qiushan clan's marriage proposal?"

"I didn't think that far."

"Three squirrels."

"What?"

The peak of the Mausoleum of Books was shrouded in torrential rains.

Yet the sound of Chen Changsheng's conversation with the Tianhai Divine Empress was not drowned out by the rain.

He did not understand what she meant by those words. 'Three squirrels'?

The Tianhai Divine Empress watched the squirrel gradually vanish into the rain, remaining silent for a very long time.

The first time she met Chen Changsheng, there was a squirrel.
