Chapter 305: Chapter 305 The reality was not as beautiful as what was written

It was raining outside again, and raindrops fell on the window. She could vaguely hear the raindrops falling from the sky to the balcony, and then on the grass. She was so bored that she turned on the tablet to check the weather forecast. It turned out that it had been rainy these days, and the temperature was quite suitable. After checking the forecast, she listened to some songs again. What she listened to was Lala Hsu’s "Riding on a White Horse". It was a Chinese song, however once when she was watching a drama, she heard this song. It was a very magical song. She liked the snippet of the play that was inserted in the middle. After she read the novel and liked it very much too. She felt related to the heroine, which falls for the main protagonist, Mr. Ruan, because of the song. Then, with some twists and turns, they were together again. Stella used to think that such a plot would only happen in novels. She didn’t expect that such bizarre things would happen to her.

As Stella thought about it, she began to hum along with the lyrics.

"I’m riding a white horse and breaking through three passes. I’ll change my plain clothes and return to the Central Plains. I’ll put down my kingdom and no one will care. All I want is Wang Baochuan..."

That song was adapted from the story between Xu Pinggui and Wang Baoshen. The song was sad and long, full of affection.

When she was in college, she was well-known in her department. She could get all kinds of songs. As long as she liked the lyrics and music, she learned any kind of song. As long as someone was singing in the dormitory all day long, the people in her dormitory would usually say, "If you want to sing, go and find Stella later." After that, the person who sang would not dare to sing.

"Wow, you are still singing. It seems that you are very comfortable!"

Oh, no, how could she let RK hear her nonsense? He wouldn’t laugh at her, would he?

"What’s wrong? There’s still a reason for the story between Xue Pinggui and Wang Baoshen. You sang it so affectionately. It seems that you know it very well."

Stella took off her headset and looked at RK with disdain. Then, she mocked him silently.

"Have you never heard of traditional Chinese folk tales? How dare you come to show off?" After Stella read some novels and watched some dramas, she quite become a fan of them and liked them very much. Of course, it was all when she was in college.

However, even now she didn’t have much time to watch this kind of drama or read novels, but she still likes them very much.

"How do you know that I haven’t heard of it? Maybe I know them better than you," RK retorted, unwilling to give in.

"Really? Then tell me about it."

"Wasn’t Xue Pinggui the one who went to war? Wang Baochuan had been guarding the cold brothel for eighteen years and finally managed to drive Xue Pinggui crazy. However, in the end, Wang Baochuan went to the immortal world."

"Tsk." Hearing that RK indeed knew the story of Xue Pinggui and Wang Baochuan, Stella stopped mocking him. "Thank you, but this is a story of deep love and affection. If you don’t understand it, don’t comment on it."

"Who says I don’t understand? I also understand this kind of hazy affection." RK said, "Then, tell me, Have you ever heard of the story of Zhuang Zhou and his wife?"

"No."

"Humph, you’re so ignorant, aren’t you?" RK finally found a place where he could fight back and became smug.

"Don’t talk nonsense. Just tell me."

"One day, Zhuang Zhou went out to travel. His wife, Tian, waited for him on the mountain for five years. At the foot of the mountain, there were King Chu and Mr. Sun who admired Zhuang Zhou’s character and learning, so they went up the mountain to ask for a teacher. However, Zhuang Zhou was not there, and Tian was still waiting for him to come back. The young master persuaded Tian, who said that even she didn’t know when Zhuang Zhou would come back. Even if Zhuang Zhou could come back, she didn’t know when that would be, so she might as well follow them down the mountain to live. However, not only did Tian disagree, but she also persuaded the young master to leave politely. Finally, the young master was ashamed to see Zhuang Zhou again and went down the mountain by himself."

"And then? What happened next?" Stella asked.

"Later, Zhuang Zhou traveled back. When he returned to the mountain, he suspected that his wife was not loyal to him, so he came up with a way to test their wife. As a result, he was exposed by his wife. She was very disappointed with him, so she went down the mountain alone and left Zhuang Zhou."

"Ah? What a pity."

"When Tian left, she said something to Zhuang Zhou. Do you know what it is?"

"What?"

"When it’s time to break up, it’s time to break up. Don’t force yourself to stay in the same place where you’re in trouble. There are cures for your pain. From now on, you’ll return to your dreams. I’ll always remember the good days. I’ll miss the remote mountains, the bamboo, the lights that shine into the home, and the flowing stream. I’ll miss the nights. Although it’s short, it’s better than a lifetime. Things will not change and people will persevere. Let’s not remember our grudges, but only our fate."

"It’s good to say that you miss those nights more than your whole life. With people’s perseverance, they can only remember fate and not hatred." Stella seemed to like my story very much, and her eyes lit up.

To be honest, when those words came out of RK’s mouth, she seemed to be able to think of the scene when Tian and Zhuang Zhou separated.

It was really like the two of them.

"This is a drama. Those who have heard it are all moved to tears, but the truth isn’t like this," said RK with a sigh.

The story was only altered by ancient scholars and scholars for the sake of comfort and loneliness. The story was just a romantic fantasy in the hearts of the scholars. To be honest, the reality was often not as beautiful as what was written.
