one sad tgcf quote a day —
"Feng Xin, my father and mother are gone."
“MU QING ISN’T LIKE YOU ALL. HE’S MY FRIEND, HE WOULD NEVER HELP YOU!!!”
“MING-XIONG! MING-XIONG! I’M SORRY, I’M SORRY I’M SORRY I’M SORRY I’M SORRY I’M SORRY I’M SORRY! WE’RE THE ONES WHO SINNED! WE’RE THE ONES WHO ARE WRONG. IT’S MY FAULT! MY BROTHER ONLY DID WHAT HE DID BECAUSE OF ME. MY BROTHER’S GONE MAD, HE’S CRAZY CAN’T YOU SEE! I…YOU…YOU…”
"Hua Cheng seemed to be holding back some sort of impulse, and once again employed a voice full of assurance, speaking softly, 'Your Highness, trust me.'

But this 'trust me' sounded weak compared to the times before when he said the same thing." (177)
"It’s been so long since anyone listened to me talk, won’t you stay?" (241)
"Xie Lian’s face darkened, and he threw that flower onto the ground. '...A prank like this disgusts me.'

Wuming, however, said, 'Why does Your Highness think it’s a prank? Perhaps, there truly are believers here who worship Your Highness.'" (194)
“GO DIE!” (162)
Hua Cheng whispered, “Your Highness, please don’t laugh like that anymore.” He hugged Xie Lian tightly. “It’s not funny, really...it’s not funny at all.” (233)
“I’m not! I’M NOT!! I’M NOT!!!!”

Suddenly, a pair of arms wrapped him around the waist, encircling his small form. A voice came from above his head.

“You’re not. I know you’re not. Don’t cry, now. I know you’re not.” (67)
"I pray to never rest in peace." (181, 241)
"Fine, fine, fine, fine, it’s my bad luck today, you don’t have to pay back that rice. What are you doing still lying around here for? You’re a grown man, not a child, are you waiting for your ma and pa to pick you up? Get up, get up, get up, get up.” (196)
“I just genuinely really miss Your Highness. I miss the once-Kingdom of Wuyong, I miss our people, and I miss the days before we ascended. That’s all. It’s been so many years... Just watching you makes me tired. Very tired. How about you? Are you not exhausted?” (240)
"Although his face was tragically pale, he still smiled and replied courteously, 'That’s true. That’s for the best.'

He was like a criminal on death row, waiting for his sentence, and he closed his eyes." (177)
"The ghost was insistent, 'Believe me, Your Highness.'

'I don’t believe you,” Xie Lian said.

He no longer believed anyone, and he no longer believed in himself either." (181)
" 'So cold,' Xie Lian whispered.

His voice was tiny... However, that ghost fire heard, and it came flying, pressing itself against his body, its flames suddenly much brighter than before, like it was burning itself up with all it had.

Still, a ghost fire was cold." (185)
“...BUT…But I only…I only wanted to just hate him, it doesn’t mean I have to hurt him. What’s that ‘should’ve been mine’? Other than natural talent, there is nothing that belongs to anyone from birth. OTHER PEOPLE’S POSSESSIONS, I DON’T WANT THEM!!" (212)
"'Hel—'

Yet, before the phrase 'Help me' could leave his throat, that same icy black blade was thrust into his body once again. Xie Lian widened his eyes in horror." (190)
