What's Wrong with Spoiling You? [Entertainment Industry] - Chapter 1

You write a letter, I burn a letter.

Yun Qing:

Today your letter arrived later than usual. I thought of it while eating, while singing opera.

The flowers and plants you gave me—I couldn’t bear to throw them away. I’ve been tending to them carefully with water, and they’ve become more delicate than a person.

The letters you wrote me, I read them by candlelight before bed, their corners curled, until I had to tuck them away at the bottom of a chest.

I remember when we first met—it was during the third line of The Peony Pavilion.

You tilted your head, looking so lovely, and with just one glance, I could never forget you.

I’ve never written back to you. A few words could never convey how deeply I love you.

“Senior Sister, why are you crying?”
