Chapter 50
Who knew, when Jian Yao took out the rings, she was proven wrong. The ring with the little bird was noticeably smaller, so it had to be hers.
Bo Jinyan took the ring and placed it on her finger. He said, “Nietzsche* once said that people are like trees. The taller they grow, towards the sunlight, the deeper the roots will have to reach into the dark earth. Jian Yao, I am the tree root, and you are the little bird who is flying above my body, free and pure. Together, we will keep our faces towards the sun, pursue the truth, and nestle against each other all our lives.”
*T/N : Nietzsche – a German philosopher.
Jian Yao looked at the ring on her ring finger. After a moment’s silence, she stretched out her arms and hugged him. Bo Jinyan also lowered his head and kissed her cheek, then put on his own ring and held her hand.
“Ziyu asked me to go over; there might be something wrong. You go with Fang Qing and the others to capture Ke Qian. We’ll meet tonight.”
“Ok.”

Bo Jinyan quickly drove away. Jian Yao had turned to go upstairs when she heard someone call her name. “Jian Yao.”
She turned her head and saw Luo Lang, whom she had not seen for many days.
