"Later, Grandma told me why she had stayed here all these years, never once thinking about leaving. It was because her lover, the only person she had ever deeply loved in her life—and still loved to this day—was buried by the lake in front of the woods."
Xingyan wiped away her tears and then slowly spoke.
"Ah!" Xixia and Yu Tingting couldn't help but be shocked. The two young girls exchanged glances, their large, round eyes still wide open with curiosity. They looked at Xingyan, waiting for her to continue.
"Yes, I was equally shocked when I heard this, because I never imagined such a possibility. I never thought that Grandma had only ever been in love once in her life and had remained unmarried, willing to spend the rest of her days in loneliness—all because of this love. A love like this doesn't exist in today's society. How loyal and steadfast must such a love be?"
