Xiao Wuyi, you must live on for the sake of Xie Jiayu.
🐈⬛Three years after I die, will you forget me again? *Pretend let go easily, and don't make him worry about it.
🐟Even if day really does come. I’ll cry for you for a month, at most.

Xie Jiayu: "Did you plan to just leave me behind halfway through? Weren't you afraid I'd go back on my word?"
Xiao Wuyi: "Could you even break off the engagement then? After all, the divorce agreement was already burned by you."
#HouMinghao#Aimi#KeytothePhoenixHeart
Xiao Wuyi, I want you to live a long and stable life in this world.
*I'm worried something might happen to him again.
🐟Can you take care of yourself a little? If it weren't for what happened, we would have gone through so much together

#KeytothePhoenixHeart Interview
Q: “At what moment do you think #XiaoWuyi’s feelings toward Xie Jiayu became, ‘I’ll give you the entire universe, no explanation needed’?”
#HouMinghao: “‘The entire universe, no explanation needed’…it means giving her everything, absolutely everything, right?
I think the most important scene for their relationship in the early part of the story is the ‘riding-through-the-targets scene.’ After that sequence, Xiao Wuyi completely falls in love with her. She falls a little later than he does. Before that scene, there had already been many moments—like what we were just talking about—where Xie Jiayu helped Xiao Wuyi. She became involved in his work, his family, and so many aspects of his life. On the surface, Xiao Wuyi seems bothered by her, but little by little he’d already gotten used to having her by his side, and he’d already started to like her.
But all of that still wasn’t enough for him to truly fall in love. It wasn’t until the moment during the ‘riding-through-the-targets’ scene, when she tied that red ribbon around him. I think it’s because he’s a young man and it was probably the first time he’d ever been that physically close to a girl. On top of that, because he wanted to protect the women living in the Xiao residence, he always deliberately kept a respectful distance from them. So this was his first time being that close to Xie Jiayu, with her tying the ribbon for him.
I also think Xiao Wuyi admires strength. He’s someone who respects strong people. Xie Jiayu, a girl, can voluntarily come onto the battlefield just to tie that ribbon on him, and then go beat the war drum. Beyond simply looking cute and pretty, what really moved him was her courage. When faced with danger, or with something that involved the bigger picture, she was willing to stand against everyone and step forward for his sake.
That kind of courage was something Xiao Wuyi had probably never encountered before. So aside from the close distance of that moment between them, what truly attracted Xiao Wuyi was her bravery and her strength of character as a girl. Because Xiao Wuyi is that kind of person himself.
Then there’s what she mentioned earlier, the unspoken understanding between them. When she was beating the drum, the way she struck it, the way he turned the horse…the sequence of movements made it feel like, in that moment, the two souls were completely in sync. I think both of them experienced that feeling for the first time. After that scene, Xiao Wuyi was completely, hopelessly in love.”
