Okay, so... this is one of my favourite scenes in the donghua, and on a rewatch with wulian on the brain, I couldn't help thinking: WHAT IF, that long, wistful look on Xie Lian's face is not just the usual yearning, but because that moment reminded him of someone?
(By the way, I discovered later that the song that plays in this scene is called "recollections of old dreams (忆旧梦)"😭)
